Lin Piao was speechless at this time, the little emperor thought about his second brother in the middle of the night, and accurately found the controller behind him to pour out his thoughts, which can be regarded as "making people happy".

Shen Hong saw that Lin Piao was silent, so he sat on the edge of the bed and stretched out his hand to put the bed tent off the hook.

The curtain fell, Shen Hong lay on the bed, and Lin Piao lifted the quilt in a corner, waiting for him to come in.

Shen Hong lay down in the quilt and hugged Lin Piao sideways: "I don't have much time today, I don't have a chance to wash, Piao'er don't think I stink." ”

Lin Piao seriously leaned on his neck and sniffed: "Oh, it really stinks, let's drive you down." After saying that, Lin Piao laughed, and Shen Hong also smiled and hugged Lin Piao tighter.

Lin Piao often said that he was very fragrant after taking a bath, and the aroma of bath beans left behind was particularly elegant and good on him, he knew that Lin Piao liked his fragrant smell, and he went out to the banquet today, and came and went back and forth all day, and his body was dyed with about the smell of wine, and there was no aroma.

Lin Piao arched, lay down more porcelain in his arms, and buried half of his face in his neck socket: "Let's take a bath tomorrow when I have time, I haven't washed either, I'm tired all day." ”

Shen Hong touched Lin Piao's hair: "Piao'er wants to wash it?" ”

Lin Piao lay in his arms, he was already sleepy, and he was about to fall asleep in a few words, but he woke up again with a word: "You are very good at climbing up the pole, but now you are so busy, you are about to fall asleep, and you are still thinking about that file, you really think that you are too long-lived." ”

Shen Hong smiled: "It's just that I've been busy for such a while, and I miss Piao'er a little, don't Piao'er miss me?" ”

Lin Piao nodded: "I'm too busy, I have things to do all the time, and I don't have the heart to think about it, let's see if there is anything tomorrow, you can come back early, so you can rest early." ”

Shen Hong lowered his head and gently kissed Lin Piao's forehead in the dark: "Okay." ”

Shen Hong got up early the next morning to go to court, and now because of his fame and power, he has to ask him about all the major affairs in the world, otherwise this matter will make others decide and there will be a sense of unfairness, and there are many things to deal with every day.

After all, Shen Hong could not be like the emperor and just say yes or no, but had to constantly communicate, constantly contact, and constantly discuss and coordinate with the ministers and families.

Lin Piao had the kitchen prepare a lot of medicinal food, and every day when he got up and went home at night, he had to drink some to nourish his mind and body.

Lin Piao got up slowly in the morning, and asked while dressing, "Did you drink Tang Shenhong this morning?" ”

"Lord Shen drank it, and he said that it tasted very good, sweeter than other medicinal foods, and the aroma was good, so let Mrs. prepare it like this."

Lin Piao nodded, he had already put on his clothes, and stretched out his hand to ask Qiu Yu to straighten his shoulder line and sleeves.

"Madam, the earth dragon is warm, but it is already a little colder outside, so today I wear a thicker one."

Lin Piao glanced at the clothes on Qiu Yu's body, and Qiu Yu said with a smile: "I can't see it outside, I wear an extra thin shoulder inside, and I don't feel cold to protect my waist and back, so I have already chosen one for my wife." ”

Lin Piao nodded, Qiu Yu was carefully chosen, the colors and styles were matched, and he got dressed and stood outside the house, and sure enough, he felt that the air was a little colder, and the breeze blew on his face with a cool feeling.

Qiu Yu came out: "Madam, breakfast will be set up in a while, let's go to the house and wait first, the weather will be cold all of a sudden, and I don't know when the princess of the town will arrive, if the weather is too cold, it is not a good time." ”

Lin Piao nodded, turned around and returned to the house: "I think it's almost here, I heard the news before that I was going to leave, even if I encountered some trouble on the way, I should arrive." ”

Lin Piao thought of Jingyang, feeling that Jingyang was not easy, Jingyang as a princess did not live in Shangjing to enjoy happiness, but went to her own fiefdom, which is naturally happy and happy, but the underdeveloped transportation is the only pain, when Chu Yu died, it took half a month for the funeral news to reach her, and it was half a month for her to rush over, when Jingyang wanted to rush over, but it was delayed.

Jingyang's fief was very rich, Chu Yu named her the eldest princess of the town in the upper position, and the fief naturally avoided the places where there were natural disasters at the beginning, but there were always good and bad days, and the south was so dry that she was half-dead and hung her life by the ditch, although Jingyang's fief was good in everything and had abundant rain, but this year it was too abundant and there was a flood, which became a waterlogging disaster.

The news was delayed on the road for a long time, and when she wanted to come back, she encountered a mudslide on the road, which blocked the road and caused the people to suffer.

Jing Yang said this, naturally no one dared to criticize and accuse her, she used to be the orphan of the most virtuous Crown Prince, the emperor's most favored niece, and later was given the title of "Zhenguo Eldest Princess" by Chu Yu, and now she is the "imperial sister" of the current saint, no matter who ascends the throne, her "seniority" is placed there.

Now that autumn has arrived, Jingyang has almost cleaned up the floods, and the news has come that she is going to enter Beijing, and now the whole of Upper Kyoto is waiting for her to come back, just to see when she will arrive.

Lin Piao had breakfast, and felt that if he and Jingyang met again, he would have to prepare some gifts, thinking that Jingyang also liked Yuemingfang's clothes, so he asked people to wrap a few of the latest autumn styles, and packed them well with a wooden box and brocade with velvet hairpins.

Lin Piao counted the days here, thinking that it would be there in three days, but he didn't expect that people should never be able to read it, so they read it in the morning, and at noon they heard the news that people had entered Beijing.

The common people are already full of longing for this kind of royal beauty, not to mention that the more prosperous the age, the more like a shining badge of Jingyang's existence, so that everyone can clearly feel how grand Daning is today, and thus fall into enthusiasm.

At noon, Xia He came back to tell the news, and the autumn weather was cold and sweaty, and he drank a whole cup of tea out of breath before he pressed it down: "There are too many people outside, I can't breathe, I didn't see the eldest princess's carriage and horse outside, and I couldn't see where it was when I squeezed in for a while. ”

Xia He got angry when he said it: "I don't know who stretched out his hand, there are many women near the place I went, and I dare to be so shameless." ”

Seeing this, Lin Piao said: "It's hard work, hard work, sit down and rest, don't stand, the eldest princess will probably not leave for a while and a half when she comes back, and we will always have the opportunity to see her in the future." ”

Xia He nodded and sighed again.

"Why sigh again. Today, you have worked hard to find out the news, so you will have a good rest in the afternoon. ”

Xia He said: "Sigh is thinking of the eldest princess, now that she has returned, although she is beautiful, she will never see the emperor again, it is really pitiful." ”

Lin Piao nodded: "Yes." ”

Qiu Yu also said beside him: "That's why the people in Beijing are so crowded with her, there are many elders in Beijing, all of them are watching the eldest princess grow up, the eldest princess has not yet been born, the first prince is gone, but the first emperor loves her, and then died of illness so early, there is only one brother left, and now it is gone." ”

Lin Piao naturally knew what they meant, and he also knew how the people in Beijing now treated Jingyang, but when he heard these words, he couldn't help but feel a little harsh, although others didn't know, but Lin Piao knew that everything was done by Shen Hong, and the reason why Jingyang had to face this situation was also caused by Shen Hong.

When Jingyang arrived in Beijing at noon, the first thing he did was to first go to see the little emperor, accept a visit from the ministers in the afternoon, and then set off for the imperial tomb in the evening, intending to stay at the imperial tomb for three days and then return to Beijing after three days.

Because of Jingyang's arrival, Shen Hong's busyness increased, and it was only before dinner in the afternoon that Shen Hong could rush back.

Lin Piao sat at the dinner table and waited for him, looking at him: "The eldest princess is back, can you meet?" ”

Shen Hong nodded: "The eldest princess summoned me and wanted to know what happened before, and the rest of the matter that I was more concerned about was His Majesty and the Seven Kings, as well as the two little highnesses." ”

Lin Piao thought about it, and always felt that although Jingyang cared about Chu Yu's affairs, she cared about it to a limited extent, and her coming back this time was more like going through the motions.

Shen Hong saw his thoughtful expression, so he sat down beside him: "What is Piao'er thinking, afraid that the eldest princess will find out?" ”

Lin Piao glanced at him, put his finger to his lips and motioned him not to say it, it was best not to mention this matter between the two of them, so that Lin Piao would feel at ease.

"The one who helped Chu Yu take the position at the beginning was Jingyang, I don't know what Jingyang is thinking at the moment."

Shen Hong smiled lightly: "Since she is not in a hurry to come back, she just doesn't want to get involved in the dispute over power too early, she always has her own thoughts, and Piao'er doesn't have to worry too much about her." ”

Lin Piao nodded: "Let's eat, eat a little more, there will be more things to do in the next few days." ”

Shen Hong nodded: "When the eldest princess returns, Your Majesty will accompany the eldest princess to the imperial mausoleum, and there should be nothing to do at night." ”

Lin Piao glanced at him, no matter what they were busy with outside, when they came home to unload their affairs, they didn't have to think about those troubles anymore, as long as they thought about each other wholeheartedly.

……

Late at night, Jingyang arrived at the imperial mausoleum, the little emperor accompanied her, his eyes were very admiring, he was a little prince who was not favored, the imperial brother and the imperial sister such a person, so that he was very envious in his heart, and he also wanted to be close to him, and now he has become the emperor, his status is different from the past, and his heart is more and more happy.

"Sister Huang, be careful of your step, the lights here are a little dark."

This is a habit that has been retained in the old days, and my father used to say that Jingyang was like his own daughter, and he also treated Princess Jingyang very fondly, and even their own sons and daughters were not compared, and they were all called "imperial sisters and imperial sisters", regardless of her origin and identity.

In the past, when he saw Princess Jingyang, she was timidly called the imperial sister, but he only felt that his status was far inferior to the imperial sister, and he did not dare to approach.

"The imperial brother went too quickly, and did not build the tomb palace, so he was buried in the imperial mausoleum, and the people of Daning were extremely sad, but the funeral ceremony was simple, but everything that should have was there, and all the affairs were discussed by several adults in the cabinet and the adults of the six ministries, especially Shen Hong, Shen Hong's heart was as careful as a hair, and the details were well taken care of, everything went smoothly, and there was nothing else.

Jingyang listened quietly, she didn't know how many times she had been to the Imperial Mausoleum, and she knew better than anyone what kind of trees and flowers were planted here, and she didn't need to be introduced.

Seeing that her reaction was faint, the little emperor only responded lightly, and the frequency of his speech also decreased: "The imperial sister is about tired of traveling and driving, and she is tired on the road, so she will first go to meet her father and brother, and then rest here, and the residence is ready." ”

Jingyang walked in, ignoring the so-called imperial uncle and brother, and first offered incense in front of the portraits of his parents' mausoleums, knelt down on the futon, twisted the three pillars of incense in his hands, closed his palms, and closed his eyes.

After slowly bowing three times, Jingyang lifted her skirt, walked to the portrait of the imperial uncle, and looked at the portrait, which was indeed very similar to him, she had never seen her father and mother since she was born, but she grew up beside him, and remembered his appearance and demeanor very deeply, even if she did not want to remember it.

Jingyang lit incense and bowed three times, and the people of the royal family were buried here, which is also a kind of reunion after death.

I just don't know what they will say after they meet, and will the grievances of the people after their deaths be written off? Or do you want to be a ghost? More endless entanglement?

However, Uncle Huang never came to find himself in his dreams, and if there were ghosts in the world, he should come to seek revenge on himself.

On the day of the palace change, she deceived the fourth brother, causing the fourth emperor brother to be imprisoned and finally killed, and the second brother promised her that he would finally give her a chance to take revenge.

She deliberately put on the prepared princess dress, just as her mother had worn it, and stabbed him to death on the couch with a sword.

Therefore, she did not believe any of those edicts and what was passed on to other people, because at the last moment she had watched the death of the emperor's uncle.

Uncle Huang was still watching her when he died, and he didn't have any time to care about any edicts.

She still remembered the ho-ho panting, like a dilapidated bellows, and the emperor's eyes were wide open as he looked at her, and his eyes were about to fall out of his sockets, full of disbelief.

He was crying out in pain, but his breath was no longer enough to support him to utter a complete sentence: "Jingyang...... Jingyang ...... Jingyang! You hate me...... Are you really going to kill me...... ”

He kept muttering that sentence over and over again.

"You're really going to kill me......"

"Are you really going to kill me......?"

Jingyang remembered that the emperor's uncle once said something similar when he was drunk, and then she guessed that her mother wanted to kill him.

Now, she has fulfilled this wish for her mother.

But staying here, she strangely did not feel afraid, but felt relieved, if the ghost of the emperor really appeared, she really wanted to ask the emperor, did she see her father, did they forgive him?

At that time, she must have taken a good look at the expression on his face.

Jing Yang thought about it and smiled, thinking it was very interesting.

When he arrived at the portrait of Chu Yu, Jingyang lit incense, knelt on the futon, looked up at the portrait of Chu Yu, and looked at it for a while before lowering his eyes.

If it can be said that the death of the imperial uncle has been premeditated for a long time, Chu Yu's death is more or less a surprise, and when the fief heard the news of Chu Yu's death, Jingyang's mind went blank for a moment, and he couldn't think of what happened in Shangjing, and he could suddenly turn the situation like this.

Now it is a prosperous age, everything is going in the best direction, and the court is stable, but the five kings are suddenly obsessed and do such a thing.

Jingyang looked at Chu Yu's portrait and bowed down, but he didn't get up for a long time.

The little emperor also worshipped beside him, and when he saw that Jingyang did not stand up after worshipping, as if he was thinking about something, there was silence all around, and neither of them spoke, so the little emperor felt a little bored and stood up: "The imperial sister wants to talk to the imperial brother, so I will go out first, and I will go to court early tomorrow morning." ”

Jingyang nodded: "Your Majesty, be careful on the road, and go back to the dormitory to rest early." ”

The little emperor nodded happily: "Listen to the imperial sister." ”

When the little emperor left, only Jingyang was left in the imperial mausoleum, the maid and the attendant waited quietly outside, the lantern was bright, the incense candle was burning, Jingyang looked up at Chu Yu's portrait, through which he was looking at his father and mother, and looking at the emperor's uncle, and now they were all hung on the wall, everything became a thing of the past, as if her past was also partially dead.

Jing Yang sighed: "Brother Huang, you are so stupid, since you are sitting on the throne, you should know that there are more or less calculations waiting for you, how could you be so careless, and you will be plotted in the blink of an eye." ”

At the beginning, they began to calculate the imperial uncle, and even more than them, the fourth brother was also there, Shen Hong was also there, so many families, so many courtiers, they were all watching this happen, they were obviously opponents, but they were tacitly doing the same thing, it can be seen that the throne is the most difficult position to sit on, and the emperor is the most difficult in the world, she thought that the imperial brother would understand this truth, and be cautious everywhere, but she didn't expect that it would only be so long, and she was sent away by the five kings with a cup of poisoned wine.

The five kings have committed a heinous crime, and they have been killed, and if they are imprisoned for life, she can still ask the fifth brother what he thinks and how he can do such a stupid thing.

But if the second brother is still alive, he also has to ask what the second brother did to cause such a thing.

Shen Hong had told her what had happened, and she had probably guessed what was going on, and the fifth brother spread rumors to make a temptation, but the second brother did not want to be subdued and appeased, but tried his best to suppress and tease, and finally forced the fifth brother to this point, fearing for his own life, so he jumped over the wall in a hurry.

Jingyang sighed again, because the fifth brother was not even qualified to enter the imperial tomb because of the wrong things he had committed, although he was afraid of the royal dignity, he was buried on the mountain and the tomb was repaired, but for the children of the royal family, it was also very bleak.

She raised her eyes and looked around at this huge imperial mausoleum, looking at the person on the portrait.

This is Royal, this is her home, this is her family.

Jingyang stayed at the imperial tomb for three days, eating and lodging there, and only returned to Beijing after three days.

Now autumn, the day of the autumn harvest, Shen Hong, as a member of the household department, is busy enough for him to count the grain taxes and granaries.

Although Shen Hong has been very strict every year, people have to eat, officials have to be corrupt, and if eating and taking cards is a basic skill, if you find an opportunity, you must find a way to keep some in your hands.

As long as they didn't do too much, Shen Hong was not too harsh, leaving each other some room to breathe, but the emperor was in a hurry first.
