Even if it was delayed any longer, the foolish emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty was forced by Sima Yue to get on an ox cart and return to the Luoyang Palace. Yang Xianrong is still sitting in his own black carriage, which is extremely low-key. This time, the situation has changed again, without the escort of the forbidden army, Yuan Jianshuo only has a dozen people scattered around the emperor, which is indeed miserable.

Fortunately, at this time, Sima Zhen was not picky, and sat quietly on the ox cart. Next to him is Zhang Du, who is still unable to walk on his legs. This time, it was replaced by Sima Zhen to take care of Zhang Du, and Zhang Du was so frightened that he kept saying, "The old slave is wrong, I can't help it!" ”

But Sima Zhen still took care of Zhang Du very carefully, and occasionally helped Zhang Du comb his already gray hair, which made Zhang Du cry several times.

After the chariot of the emperor, as usual, the concubines of the harem were followed. However, this time there were a few fewer concubines, and they quietly left the convoy and disappeared into the mountains with the acquiescence of Yang Xianrong.

Yang Xianrong hugged Sima Jing and whispered to Cui Xi who was sitting on the wheel: "How is Lanxiang?" Can the body withstand it? ”

"It should be okay, I've been able to get off the ox cart and walk a few steps." After more than a month, her wound has scabbed, but her body is not as good as before, and even Sima Jing can't hold it.

"What do you have to eat? Let her eat more. Yang Xianrong kneaded Sima Jing's little hand, "Is there any jerky over there at Zhang Lianghoe?" ”

"There is still jerky, but let's save some, this is still a long way from Luoyang." Cui Xi sighed, "Mr. Mao has only got three boxes of jerky, and he has already given more than half of it to the emperor, so we only have so much." ”

In order to let Mao Hongmao officially stay by his side, Yang Xianrong asked Sima to make a will, named Mao Hongmao as the head chef of the imperial kitchen, and stamped a big seal.

Now Sima Zhen took care of his big seal very casually, especially when Yang Xianrong said that he wanted to make an order, he didn't even think about it, put all his seals on her car, and asked her: "Do you see the dragon robe crown?" I'll leave it there for you. ”

When Mao Hongmao was packing his bags in Chang'an, Lao Zhang, a cook who had been following him, suddenly found him mysteriously, saying that he found a dilapidated land temple when he was buying goods, and there were three boxes of well-sealed boxes hidden behind the mud bodhisattva.

"There are countless rich people who have escaped in Chang'an City, maybe they were left here, they didn't have time to take them away, and they couldn't fit in the car." Lao Zhang guessed.

"What does the box look like? I mean, ordinary? Or is it patterned? Mao Hongmao grinned, he also understood that at this time, he might not be able to pick up the leak and make a windfall.

"This ...... I don't understand it, anyway, it's the kind of box that every household has, and it doesn't look new. Lao Zhang was fifty years old, and he had a son with him in his early years, but later his son died of a sudden illness, and his daughter-in-law took her granddaughter to remarry and left. He has been working as a cook in Mao Hongmao's Mingyue Building for more than 30 years, so now Mao Hongmao has officially become the head of the imperial kitchen in the palace, so he naturally takes him with him.

The relationship between the two old men is quite good, and they have the same ideas.

Quietly went out of the palace, entered the ruined temple, and pried open one of the boxes. It was full of marinated and air-dried yak meat jerky!

At this time, gold may not be useful, but food, especially jerky, is definitely worth a fortune. These three big boxes of jerky are what many people dream of.

Mao Hongmao wanted to cheer happily, but he was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble, so he restrained his excitement, separated the three boxes of jerky and tied them to his body, quietly brought them into the palace, and silently hid in the ox cart loaded with sundries, and set off with the emperor's chariot.

Privately told Yang Xianrong that she had such a food reserve, and she was also full of joy, and immediately asked Mao Hongmao and Lao Zhang to quietly make food for Zhang Du, Lan Xiang and Yuan Jianshuo's injured forbidden soldiers, so that they could replenish nutrition in time and their bodies could get better faster.

The ox cart was too slow to travel. The weather gradually got hotter, and they also encountered heavy rain and floods, so they walked for a month and a half before returning to Luoyang.

At this time, the country of the Great Jin Dynasty changed again, Sima Yue completely took the initiative, and his sphere of influence was repeatedly expanded. The Sima clan is headed by Sima Yue, and all commands obey his arrangements.

Sima Yue also deservedly lived in the Zhengyang Palace of the Luoyang Imperial Palace and became the actual principal. Therefore, when Sima Zhen returned to the Luoyang Palace, he only arranged for him to live in the very small Xianyang Palace on the side. Sima Xin didn't say anything, and moved in silently.

Yang Xianrong still lives in his Tianyuan Palace, which is only separated by a wall from Xianyang Palace. She didn't care what Sima Yue would say, after reintegrating and distributing the palace people on both sides, she dug a big hole in the palace wall as a convenient door to enter and exit the two palaces.

Zhang Du's legs couldn't move, so Yang Xianrong asked Zhang Lianghoe to follow Sima Xin's left and right, serving his daily needs. However, Zhang Lianghoe also has to take care of the matter of Yang Xianrong, and the whole person can't wait to break it into eight petals, so busy that he is running to the toilet.

Thinking that in August, it would be Sima Zhen's forty-eighth birthday, and despite all the stumbling life, he was always the emperor of the Great Jin. Yang Xianrong looked at his gray hair and Zhang Du, and he was also sad. So, I thought about preparing a birthday banquet for him.

All walks of life in Luoyang are still withering, and after being looted by Zhang Fang, there is still no one to open the door to do business. Mao Hongmao went to find Mao Hongbin, who was still sticking to the Northern Military Mansion, he was responsible for the daily operation of Luoyang, but it was pointless to think about doing more.

It's hard for everyone, it's hard to get by.

But on this day, Sima Zhen was gone.

After dinner, he said he was going to lie down for a while. Zhang Liang hoe waited for him to go to the apse to lie down, because the weather was too hot, he still insisted on covering him with a thin quilt before going out, to help Yang Xianrong sort out the silk threads needed by the harem women of the Qiqiao Festival.

Sima Jing had eaten too much, so she ran between the two palaces, and Forsythia followed her to protect her safety. Lan Xiang found a place to sit down and look at them.

Sima Jing was tired of running, and he didn't care about any etiquette, so he pushed the door directly into Sima Xin's bedroom, wanting to call him out to play together and see the bright moon in the sky. But when she pushed open the door and shouted "Father", she was surprised to find that Sima Xin's dragon bed was empty, and the thin sheet was thrown on the ground.

Sima Jing shouted a few more times, attracting the attention of Forsythia and Lan Xiang, and the two also entered Sima Xin's dormitory, and found that sure enough, the emperor was gone.
