Feng Li couldn't wake up naturally, he was woken up by someone, the door knocked more and more, and the inner supervisor he married shouted in a suppressed voice outside: "Master, it's time for you to get up." Master, wake up. ”

Although the knocking action was rude, the voice calling him was soft, and he was his closest attendant Mingfu. Mingfu's little father-in-law and the original body can be said to share joys and sorrows, and when they were hostages, they accompanied him all the way back to the country, and they were loyal.

"Wake up......" Feng Li's voice responded, and he sat up from the bed groggily.

"Master, the little ones have opened the door." Mingfu didn't let others take the lead, and pushed the door open first. He saluted the aunt in charge who was waiting on the side, and Xiao Xiao walked to the bed and helped Feng Li to get up.

The other maids followed into the inner water to prepare clothes, and Ming Fu helped Feng Li and whispered: "Aunt Shen Qiang, who is in the palm of the palace, is here, she is the most trusted five-grade female official in the eldest princess's lifetime, and she says everything in the backyard of the mansion." ”

When Feng Li heard this, he crossed Mingfu's shoulder and saw this Aunt Shen Qiang. Aunt Shen is about fifty years old, with deep Sichuan character lines between her eyebrows, a solemn face, wearing a cyan robe, holding the eighteen sons of Bodhi, and it is not easy to fool when she looks at it.

The eldest princess in Mingfu's mouth is the mother of the regent Zhou Zhaoning, although she is not the blood of the first emperor, but she is the eldest princess who was rewarded for her merits. In terms of seniority, the regent is his cousin with Emperor Yongqing, and now that he is married to his cousin, he has also increased his seniority, and the emperor should not be called the imperial brother when he sees him, he has to be called the imperial aunt!

Thinking of this, Feng Li snorted and laughed. Putting aside this feminine title, the identities of the princess and the imperial aunt are also quite comfortable.

Shen Qiang was naturally looking at the new princess, and when she saw him smiling inexplicably, she was a little displeased.

"Minister Shen Qiang see the princess."

"Aunt Shen is polite, let's discuss, can you not call the princess? I'm a man anyway, otherwise you will scream at the palace and call me Seventh Brother. ”

Feng Li smiled, and when Shen Qiang heard this, her mood changed in an instant. The new princess is open-minded and polite, and she does not feel sorry for her own situation, which is impressive. As the seventh son of the first emperor, he should have been divided a long time ago, but he didn't abide by the rules of his ancestors and didn't give him a title, but he could see it.

"You are the prince of the first emperor, and we are courtiers and slaves, how can you call the seventh brother and arrogant. Since you don't like the title of princess, how about calling you the seventh master in the palace in the future? ”

Feng Li raised his eyebrows and nodded: "That's great, thank you Aunt Shen." ”

"I can't thank you. The minister has come here to prepare for your ritual today. ”

Feng Li got up and went to the back of the screen, and Mingfu helped him put it on, and responded while listening: "I'm getting married for the first time, and I'm not familiar with these, Aunt Shen arranged it." ”

The people in the house laughed one after another, thinking that the new princess was talking interestingly, of course, it was the first time to get married, and there were not many people who had become married several times this year.

"Ahem...... Shen Qiang was used to being serious, and he was not very suitable for his number, so he had to follow the script, "Although the old general and the eldest princess have passed away, the seventh master should go to the ancestral hall first to pay tribute and offer tea and incense." ”

"Yes, I'll go in a minute."

"Most of the servants of the palace have not seen the seventh master yet, and the ministers will let them come to visit later."

"Yes."

"There are twenty-eight concubines in the backyard, and they also need to meet the seventh master."

Feng Li was rinsing his mouth and squirting it out directly, and Mingfu hurriedly handed him a handkerchief to wipe it.

Twenty-eight concubines, the regent is not romantic, collect all twenty-eight stars! He was also worried that someone would marry him and cut off his children and grandchildren, so he was really worried about eating radishes.

"Your lord...... Oh, no, our lord, are you okay? It should be made up, and the palace should not be short of supplement money. ”

Shen Qiang lowered her eyebrows and replied, "The prince is strong and healthy, and the seventh master doesn't need to worry." ”

"That's good. What kind of tiger whip, deer blood and the like, or give him some from time to time, take precautions. ”

Aunt Shen, who is accustomed to palace secrets and private affairs between men and women, is also a little unbearable, the prince is the most serious, and never messes with these concubines who are stuffed in by various forces, but if she wants to clarify, she can't say it. It seems that there is no need to say this to the new princess, and it should not be said by her old aunt.

What's more, the new princess's attitude is so open-minded, and she doesn't look jealous, what does she talk about?

After Feng Li finished washing, Mingfu tied his hair, his green silk was soft when he was scattered, and the golden crown showed his heroic spirit as soon as he wore it. Shen Qiang was not the slightest impatient, and waited calmly. Feng Li didn't want her to stand alone, so he asked her to sit down on the side, and the two of them exchanged a few gossips about food and drink.

"I don't have taboos, I eat everything." Feng Li said casually, but Shen Qiang thought about it secretly.

There are only two kinds of princes and grandsons who eat everything, one is that the Ninety-Five Emperor does not show his preferences, the other is that people dare not find fault like grass mustard, and the latter is the majority of those who have lost the country and are hostages. The seventh son of the first emperor smiled freely, which set off his difficulties over the years.

It is indeed not easy to seal and leave, the marching and fighting grass roots and tree bark have been gnawed, flies, rats, snakes and insects have eaten, and the most eaten are large pots of rice and dry cakes, and they will naturally not be picky about the food in the palace.

The maid rushed in and brought a delicate breakfast, Shen Qiang got up to watch them set the table, and put all the specialties of the palace cooks in the position where they could be felt. After he finished dressing, he just came to eat, and his stomach was indeed hungry, and he was very satisfied with this table, and was just about to sit down to eat, when someone came quickly.

The person who came was Zhou Lian, the chief butler of the palace, and he was followed by two guards, one of whom was an acquaintance of Feng Li, Zhou Ji, the "chicken hugger" yesterday.

Zhou Lian and the three of them were menacing, and after a hurried salute, they said: "The prince instructed, please invite the princess to go to the ancestral hall to worship, familiarize herself with the Zhou family tree, and know about the major events of the sacrifice in the clan." ”

After Zhou Lian finished speaking, he glanced at Zhou Ji and the two, and the two immediately stepped forward and said unceremoniously: "Princess, please." ”

The words said "please", and the action was obviously sealed, and they were about to draw their knives.

Feng Li didn't know where he offended the regent, it looked like he was going to take him to the ancestral hall and confined him, wouldn't he still beat him? The guard had a knife and he was empty-handed, so he had no choice but to follow, and before he left, he grabbed a bun and gnawed on the way.

Zhou Ji: "......"

The two guards surrounded him one after the other and went to the ancestral hall, and Mingfu wanted to follow, but was stopped.

Feng Li talked to Zhou Ji while eating steamed buns: "Hug Jigong, what's your name?" ”

"Zhou Ji."

The two words hard Bangbang can be seen to be very reluctant.

Feng Li didn't care about his attitude, and deliberately teased him: "Zhou hug the chicken, no wonder you hugged the rooster yesterday, it's very suitable." ”

"You ——!"

"Hey, pay attention to your attitude, although I don't have a good fight, but you still have to have your honorific title when it comes to etiquette, so you can learn to be a housekeeper of Zhou." Feng Li looked him up and down, "I see that you are very similar to Zhou Guan's parents, you are father and son, right?" ”

Without waiting for Zhou Ji to answer, Feng Li's steamed buns were eaten in three or two bites, he licked his lips unsatisfied, and sighed lightly: "The buns in the palace are too small to eat." Honestly, did you inquire about it and deliberately came before me to eat? ”

"You...... You're mistaken, I don't dare to snoop ......"

The sound of their words completely disappeared in the courtyard, looking at Shen Qiang outside the door, he turned his head and looked at Zhou Lian waiting for his words.

"The prince also instructed that last night the princess was rude and offended the prince, and the palace people were not able to escape the blame, and they had to work for Aunt Shen's training."

When Shen Qiang heard this, she raised her voice and called: "Come on, bring all the princess's dowry palace people to the main courtyard, I want to ask." ”

"Then I'll go back to the front yard first."

Zhou Lian bowed, Shen Qiang bowed, and asked him in a low voice: "Is the prince angry about the rumors?" ”

"The master's affairs spread all over the palace overnight, and Aunt Shen should have heard of it. There were few of these dowry palace people, so they were handed over to the aunt for screening. ”

"It's a duty." After Shen Qiang finished speaking, her expression relaxed and changed the topic, "Zhou Lian, last night, the prince and the princess, are they really round?" ”

Zhou Lian frowned fiercely at Aunt Shen Qiang's glittering eyes, rumors are harmful, how can even Aunt Shen, who is the most old-fashioned and respectful, listen to this!

"Alas, Aunt Shen ......"

"That's it, I'm just worried about the prince, such a beauty, also known as a good name, and I am indifferent to it in my arms......"

"Aunt Shen, be cautious."

"What is cautious, who can say these words except you and me now? are all cautious, let the prince be lonely? What will you do to see the General and His Highness in a hundred years? Shen Qiang flicked her sleeves as she spoke, and replied to Zhou Lian with a big roll of her eyes, "Anyway, your front yard will find out the princess's affairs as soon as possible, if it is not the faction in the palace, remember to say a lot of good words in front of the prince, I think the princess has a free and easy temperament, and she is a good match for the prince." ”

"Butler Zhou, please, the old body is going to do business."

Zhou Lian was ruthlessly driven away, daring to be angry but not daring to speak. He is not optimistic about this new princess, eight years old as a hostage, can come back alive, what kind of simple person will he be, he must know how to weigh and forbear, I am afraid that he has uncontrollable ambitions, but he is pretending to be simple. Such a person is the most disgusting thing for the prince.

Shen Qiang looked at his back and knew what his old partner was thinking, and shook her head disapprovingly. Originally, it should have been the princess in the palace today, but now it is good, but she has been embarrassed by the authority, and the road ahead is not easy.

Feng Li, who was forcibly increased the difficulty of surviving in the palace, had already arrived at the ancestral hall at this time, Zhou Ji motioned for him to enter, and locked the door from the outside with his backhand.

Feng Li had expected it, and he was tired of knocking on the door, so he leaned on the door and asked lazily: "Zhou Baoji, didn't you let me familiarize myself with the genealogy, what about the genealogy?" ”

The genealogy is indeed in the ancestral hall, but it is impossible to put it in the hall, so Zhou Ji had to say: "The princess is looking for it herself, probably here." ”

"There are major sacrifices in that clan, and no one teaches me how to learn them, so I do it behind closed doors?"

Zhou Ji has a big head and can't answer. His father's casual excuse, now let him come to the round, it is really a father's debt to pay off, and he will not deceive me.

Feng Li teased him very much, and he didn't really want to embarrass him, seeing that he didn't answer, he turned around and walked into the hall.

In the main hall, the tablets of the ancestors of the Zhou family are in the back, and the tablets of the general Zhou Xian and the eldest princess of Pingjia are in front. Feng Li approached, twisted three incense, and saluted.

There was no one else, so he did not kneel down, sat down on the futon after putting on the incense, and whispered: "General Zhou, eldest princess, nominally I am your unlucky nephew and grandson, and I was stuffed to your unlucky son as a daughter-in-law. ”

"I'm like the cattle and sheep on the grassland in the north of the Saibei, I eat water and grass by myself and run away, and I will be happy......"

Feng Li looked up, the house was empty, and no people were heard, only heavy curtains and heavy incense. His straight spine suddenly unloaded, and he fell behind him, lying on two futons.

This closed inner courtyard of the palace is not really happy. He wanted the wind and snow in the northern frontier, the sunset on the grassland, and the courage to pursue thousands of miles.

"Alas......"

This faint sigh clearly entered the inner hall, and the person sitting in front of the hall raised his eyes leisurely, it was the regent who was angry in Shen Qiang's mouth.
