Chapter 162: The End of the Year
Chapter 443: The End of the Year
In Yanfu Palace, Zhao Guangyuan's father and son, who were summoned, came to meet Emperor Zhizheng.
"Get up."
Emperor Zhizheng shouted, his gaze asided from Zhao Guangyuan, and fell on Changzhi beside him. "Look up."
Chang Zhi raised his head apprehensively and looked curiously at the emperor on the dragon throne, this is his imperial grandfather. looks different from my father, so majestic.
"It's quite bold."
When he heard this, he hurriedly lowered his head.
"Why do you scare him?" Zhao Guangyuan's tone was light.
Emperor Zhizheng snorted, a foreign surname, but he was distressed. I think he doesn't even have a parent, so he can only hurt the kid with his surname. Something strange happened in my heart again. A touch of distress is fleeting.
"I heard that I worshipped Jiang Wentao as a teacher?"
"Yes." Zhao Guangyuan answered for his son.
"You're going to plan for him."
My son, can I not plan for him?
Zhao Guangyuan's thoughts fell, thinking that the one on the throne was his own father, who had never planned for himself, and was suspicious and jealous, and wiped out the royal brother's family, and he also fell into such a situation. His face was a little colder.
Emperor Zhizheng is used to his cold face, and when he smiles at himself one day, he will be really afraid. Turning his head and asking about his homework.
Since he recognized his father at the age of five, he was arranged by Zhao Guangyuan to learn all kinds of homework, and he has been studying with Lu Shanchang all these years, and has been carefully taught by Zhao Guangyuan and Jiang Xiang in private.
Although he was nervous, he was not stuck in answering the question of Emperor Zheng.
The more Emperor Zhizheng asked, the more surprised he became, didn't he say that the Lin family was just ordinary in the local area? But this child is not only solid in learning, but also quite insightful about current affairs, is this child smart, or has the Lin family invited Mr. to teach him since he was young?
An ordinary civilian family can have such an insight?
Zhao Guangyuan was surprised when he saw him, and he was proud. My son, even if he doesn't grow up in the capital and doesn't raise him in the royal family, is just as good.
Emperor Zhizheng no longer asked about schoolwork, but only asked: "How do you live in the Yue Wang's Mansion, and how does the Yue King treat you?" You have solid knowledge, do you want to enter the palace to be a companion to His Highness Sixteen during the New Year? ”
Emperor Zhizheng had a heart of love.
In his heart, he felt that such an embarrassing foreign surname could enter the palace and be able to read as a companion, which was already a great grace, and this kid surnamed Lin had this identity, and no one would look down on him in the capital.
Emperor Zhizheng also saw that the kid in front of him was smart, and he had a heart of love for talent before he made a temporary move. Of course, there is no compensation for King Yue, only Emperor Zhizheng himself knows.
Changzhi glanced up at his father, and when he saw his father's encouraging eyes, his heart was settled.
"The kid thanks the emperor for his grace, but it's good for the kid to live in the Yue Wangfu, my aunt loves me, my uncle treats me like a parent, and Mr. Jiang also teaches him, and the kid doesn't dare to live up to it."
Emperor Zhizheng was a little surprised, and actually refused? Bad for one more road?
"Listening to Sixteen, I like you a lot, isn't it good for you to enter the palace to be his companion? The masters are knowledgeable and gather the strengths of each family, isn't it better than you to follow Jiang Wentao? ”
"Mr. Jiang is very good, His Royal Highness the Sixteenth is also very good, welcome His Highness the Sixteenth to the Yue Wangfu to play in the future, we can discuss knowledge together and improve each other."
Zhao Guangyuan thought that his son would not refuse, he planned to help his son on the side, but he didn't expect that his son didn't use himself, and he refused the emperor when he grew up, and he didn't need to make a move.
Not to mention that he is not there during the day, even if he is there every day, he will not let him enter the palace as any companion. It's not that sixteen is bad, it's that I don't want Changzhi to enter the palace.
Seeing that his son answered very well, Zhao Guangyuan was proud.
Emperor Zhizheng saw the child in front of him, he didn't say anything, he spoke smartly, and he also liked it a little. "Since Little Sixteen likes you, I promise you can come to the palace to play with him in the future."
"Your Majesty, Emperor. Also welcome the Sixteenth Highness to come to the Yue Wangfu to play. ”
Out of the main hall, Chang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, glanced back, and exhaled again, amusing Zhao Guangyuan, "Didn't you deal with it quite easily just now?" ”
Chang Zhi glanced left and right, and saw that there was no one around, so he spread his hands to his father, "My son's palms are sweating." ”
Just now he was nervous to death, for fear that he would accidentally offend the emperor and implicate his father.
Zhao Guangyuan glanced at his hand, and his son's palms were sweating nervously, but he didn't show it at all just now. Patted him on the head, "I just coped very well. ”
When he heard it, he became proud.
The father and son went to the Xingqing Palace where the banquet was held to find Lin Zhaoxia.
Lin Zhaoxia also came out of Fengzao Palace. The queen asked her about the two aunts of Zhou Jia who she sent to the palace, and said that they were not useful, or if they were sent back, and two more people would go.
Zhou Jia's two aunts and queens specially sent over to teach Lin Zhaoxia the rules of etiquette, but they were not reused here in Lin Zhaoxia, not only could they not be reused, but they couldn't even serve in the main courtyard.
How could Lin Zhaoxia let the eyeliner in the palace approach the main courtyard before settling Zhou Jia's two aunts, but he didn't want to change people and come over again.
I only didn't understand the queen's words, I only said that I always remembered the queen's great kindness, regarded Zhou Jia's two aunts as honored guests, set up two courtyards, and sent a maid to serve them, please rest assured.
In front of all the noble ladies, the queen didn't treat her well, and hung her there after asking a few words.
Lin Zhaoxia didn't care, he sat for a while and then came out.
Seeing the father and son, he was also relieved to the father and son, and amused Zhao Guangyuan again, "Your mother and son are exactly the same." ”
The face is light and light, but the heart is tense.
"If you can not come to this palace, don't come, I am nervous once, I always feel that there are pits everywhere, and I dare not relax when I lift my heart, this time I enter the palace, and I have to recuperate for a few days when I go back, so that I can make up for the brain cells that have been lost."
Father and son were delighted when they heard this.
Today's Chinese New Year's Eve Palace banquet palace is full of lights, lively, long to the first time to enter the palace, see everything is rare, know friends many also entered the palace, friends get together to be happy, compared to adults, long to today's happiest.
Even the cold food that was disliked by Zhao Guangyuan and Lin Zhaoxia was eaten happily by him.
"This kid isn't a picky eater."
"It's easy to raise."
Is it good to raise it, can he still not afford to raise his son? glared at Lin Zhaoxia. Lin Zhaoxia raised an eyebrow at him, and Zhao Guangyuan funnily fed her a cold meal with chopsticks.
The interaction between the husband and wife is very envious in the eyes of many people.
"King Yue really likes Princess Yue, otherwise he wouldn't have resisted for her."
Mrs. Sun glared at the concubines beside her with hatred, if it wasn't for the master's orders, she wouldn't have brought these concubines into the palace. He glanced at his daughter on the side worriedly, for fear that she would be a demon again.
Originally, she didn't plan to enter the palace, nor did she plan to let the wonderful person enter the palace, but she didn't think that the wonderful person persuaded her, saying that if she didn't enter the palace, it would make people gossip.
Sun Miaoren withdrew his gaze from King Yue, with a faint regret in his heart, but smiled at Mrs. Sun, "Mother, my daughter will be married in August." ”
Seeing that her daughter could put it down, Mrs. Sun patted her palm happily, "Okay, when the time comes, my mother will prepare a thick dowry for you, and I will not let you be angry at her husband's house." ”
The Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet ended quickly, and everyone was not really allowed to accompany the emperor and all the ladies in the palace to celebrate the New Year, after all, the ministers still have to go to the court tomorrow.
A family of three who returned to the Yue Wang's Mansion lit firecrackers with their subordinates, kept the New Year, and washed and slept.
didn't sleep for an hour or two, and Zhao Guangyuan got up again. Lin Zhaoxia sat up with the hug, dazed.
"You continue to sleep, and someone will serve you." Zhao Guangyuan was reluctant to let her work. Lin Zhaoxia stared at him in a daze, dressed up, and went out again, then went back to bed and continued to sleep.
On the 25th day of Zheng, it is an annual pilgrimage.
At the beginning of each year, hundreds of officials in Beijing should wear ceremonial clothes and auspicious clothes to enter the palace to congratulate, foreign officials should enter the table to congratulate, and the envoys of various countries will also write and pay tribute.
The sky was slightly bright, and the ceremonial officials led the civil and military officials into the Song Heaven Hall in order, and stood on the east and west sides according to the ranks. There are also envoys who specialize in supervising officials who are dozing off and talking to each other. Everyone was angry and didn't dare to move.
Wait until the drums sound in unison, until the emperor takes the dragon to enter the hall and ascend to the throne, the hundred officials kowtow to congratulate, the mountain calls long live, the emperor gives wine, and the monarch and the ministers celebrate the beginning of the new year.
"Mother, Happy New Year!" On the first day of the new year, I didn't snooze until I was long, and went to my mother's house early to worship the New Year.
Lin Zhaoxia looked at her son, who was one year older, with a smile, and respectfully gave herself a New Year's greeting, and a sense of pride rose in her heart, her son had grown into a little adult.
When he got up, he pulled him to look at it, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became, and gave him a red envelope for the New Year, "I hope my son will be healthy and healthy in the new year." ”
"My mother is also healthy!"
The mother and son had breakfast happily, went to the council hall to accept the greetings from the people, and gave the New Year money.
"It's not going to be a good day today, and your father doesn't know when he'll come back, or let's go to Huixian Tower to have a look?"
"Uh-huh!" Chang Zhi happily agreed, there will be a new show in the Xianlou today, and Chang Zhi wants to go over and see it.
"Mother, did you say that Huixianlou would have no business today?"
I haven't spent the New Year in the capital for a long time, but in Tianshou Town and Changping, I heard my grandfather and uncles say that many shops are closed for the New Year, and everyone is at home for the New Year. But the mother said that the shops in the capital are still open as usual.
Business as usual is business as usual, but will there be no one to patronize?
Changzhi was worried.
Both mother and son thought that the business of Huixian Building would not be too good, but when they arrived, they saw that Huixian Building was full of Dengdeng!
This? Isn't everyone at home for the New Year?
It's not lunch time yet, is it?
Today, Huixian Lou does not do morning tea business, and only makes two main meals before the fifth day of the new year: lunch and dinner. As a result, Lin Zhaoxia also took advantage of the fact that the lunch business had not started, and wanted to come to see the preparations for the show, and the Huixian Building was full of people?
Jiang Li hurriedly ran over, "I've seen the princess, I've seen the little son." ”
"Happy New Year, Uncle Shopkeeper."
"Happy New Year, little boy." Jiang Li smiled brightly at Changzhi.
Lin Zhaoxia asked about the situation, "It seems that everyone knows about the new dishes and new shows on the fairy floor today." ”
"Yes, we publicized it to the diners a few years ago, and we also sent people to publicize it all over the capital, and when we opened today, the guests poured in. Now the attendance rate is seven or eight percent. ”
Jiang Li believes that when the lunch time comes, it will be full again.
"Uncle shopkeeper, are you not at home for the New Year, and are there so many people in other restaurants?"
Jiang Li smiled and explained: "Our large and small shops in the capital are almost not closed for the New Year, and the business is good during the year, especially the restaurant, restaurant, restaurant, tea shop, opera garden, flower building, during the New Year, it is the most lively, relatives and friends move around, socialize, and interact with people, just in the half month of the New Year, the turnover on the accounts of each shop is more than usual two or three months. ”
While the three of them were talking, many guests came in downstairs.
As soon as the drums on the first floor stage sounded, the Huixian Building suddenly fell silent. Not only the guests on the first floor looked at the stage, but even the guests in the private rooms on each floor came out of the private rooms and leaned on the railing to look at the stage on the first floor.
As soon as the festive drum music began, the dancers danced, and the guests couldn't take their eyes off the festive and cheerful singing and dancing.
It's just that many people are tired of singing and dancing, and everyone came early to occupy a place when they heard that there was a surprise program on the small stage of Huixianlou, that's all?
"I heard that the palace borrowed a lot of tricksters from the Yue Wangfu, didn't you detain it and didn't return it?"
An insider who participated in last night's palace banquet nodded again and again, "I saw the change of face in the palace last night, it was really wonderful, and the emperor threw several rewards." The ladies of the palace also threw it, and the white flowers on the stage were golden. ”
"I was still in the palace last night, so I must have stayed in the palace early this morning to celebrate the New Year for the emperor and the ladies."
It's a pity. "Then we'll come back another day?"
"Don't, I heard that Huixianlou also has a new dish today, let's try it first, if it's delicious, I'll bring my family to eat it when I go back."
"That'll do fine." Everyone flipped through the menu and ordered.
This menu flipped over, and it was really new again, and the dishes on the menu were unheard of, and they were all festive, what kind of good luck was shining, icing on the cake, rising step by step, fortune and treasure, more blessings and longevity, God-given good fate, full of children and grandchildren, family portraits......
If you don't come to the last one, I'm afraid that these good things won't be your turn.
Order well, and the dishes will be served quickly. It's not like looking at the name of the dish before and looking at the menu to know what the dish is, this bells and whistles dish has a sense of expectation of opening a blind box, and I don't know if it's delicious or not.
Fortunately, after the dish was served, the guests were not disappointed, but there was a big surprise, and the guests were very satisfied.
While eating, the show downstairs began.
"Wow!" There was a loud sound, and all the guests who were eating fragrantly in the upstairs private room exploded.
I saw two pairs of young maiko, jumping down from the four directions of the stage, grabbing the flying streamer with one hand, spinning and flying in the air, the dance clothes followed the movements of the maiko, gently fluttering and dancing, elegant and drunk, so beautiful! It's like a flying fairy.
Where have you ever seen such a song and dance, you were stunned for a while.
The two female maiko and the two male maiko each did a variety of dance moves, spinning, somersaults, changing positions, picking people in the air and other thrilling actions, and the guests continued to wow.
While screaming, they were afraid that they would fall from the sky.
Thrilling and exciting!
I forgot to blink my eyes when I saw it. The food is not fragrant.
Occasionally, I looked up along the rope and tilted my head back, worrying for the Maiko that the rope was not strong.
The denser the drum beat, the faster the spinning and flipping aerial tossing action, and a female maiko releases the streamer in her hand and falls quickly......
"Wow!" The hearts of the people were pulled up.
As a result, the maiko gently hooked the streamer with her foot, and the falling movement stopped.
Call. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. And the male maiko on the other side swung over again, also hooking the rope with his feet, spreading his arms out, and making a receiving motion, this is?
As a result, a female maiko swayed her streamer and flew towards him......
"Wow!" It's going to fall!
As a result, the female maiko was firmly caught, and a man and a woman spun and danced in the air, fluttering like fairies, accompanied by the music on the stage, the two seemed to be about to soar to the ninth layer of heaven.
Everyone's hearts swayed, and they couldn't be fascinated.
