Chapter 1264: Visiting the Garden (I)

The carriage was soon ready, the royal logo was all removed, and the two princesses Empress Dowager Jiang, Empress Wu, Concubine Shu, Yongfu and Yongchun took five carriages, quietly left the palace from the Xuanwu Gate behind, and then went out of the imperial city from Xi'an Gate, came to Xi'anmen Street, and then turned south, and went in the direction of Xuanwu Gate along Anfufang Street.

"Brother Jin is always so careful and thoughtful!" Empress Dowager Jiang sat in a comfortable carriage and muttered comfortably, obviously very satisfied with the travel route Xu Jin had chosen.

The princess is not a glorious thing to become a monk, naturally the more low-key the better, Xu Jin obviously figured out the mind of the Empress Dowager Jiang, so the special person removed the royal symbol on the carriage, and quietly left the palace from the Xuanwu Gate behind the palace, avoiding encountering officials from the previous court on the way.

However, it is impossible not to be completely eye-catching, and the group is full of nobles in the palace, and the entourage and guards are indispensable, adding up to as many as fifty or sixty people.

About half an hour, the convoy finally drove into the hour square, and stopped in front of the Yongfu Temple opposite the Xu Mansion, and the palace maids and eunuchs each helped their masters out of the carriage.

Empress Wu landed and stood firmly, looked around, and finally fell on the plaque of the Xu Mansion opposite, on which were the four big characters inscribed by Jiajing himself - Beijing Palace, and even stamped with the emperor's treasure seal.

A strange look flashed in the eyes of the personal eunuch Bi Chun, and he leaned into the ear of Empress Wu and whispered: "Queen Mother, it turns out that the opposite door of Yongfu Temple is the Beijing Palace." ”

Empress Wu obviously didn't grasp the deep meaning of Bi Chun's words, she snorted expressionlessly, and felt a sense of jealousy in her heart, the emperor was too fond of Xu Jin, and even wrote a plaque to his family, but her own mother-in-law's Wu Mansion did not have this kind of honor, and when He Zhi'er, the little goblin, entered the palace, wouldn't Xu Jin be even more favored?

The more Empress Wu thought about it, the more jealous she felt in her heart, and the more cold her face became.

At this time, Concubine Shu obviously also discovered the Beijing Mansion opposite, and a trace of surprise and doubt flashed in her eyes, but she didn't say anything, in terms of intelligence and city government, they were obviously above Queen Wu.

At this time, Empress Dowager Jiang looked up at the faΓ§ade of Yongfuguan in front of her, and was quite satisfied with its elegant but atmospheric decoration style, nodded and said: "This looks good on the outside, but I don't know how it is inside?" ”

Yongchun smiled and said, "The queen mother will be clear if she goes in and takes a look." ”

"You're a monkey smart." Empress Dowager Jiang said angrily, and after speaking, she wanted to move, but suddenly stopped and looked at the top of the gate and said, "Brother Jin, why is there no inscription on this?" ”

Xu Jin smiled and said: "Back to the Queen Mother, I haven't yet, today's Labor Yongfu His Royal Highness Jade Toe, is to ask for her opinion, there are still many places to inscribe, all of them are missing, and after it is set, you can let the craftsman inscribe it, but it takes a day or two of effort." ”

Empress Dowager Jiang suddenly smiled and said: "I see, Brother Jin has a heart, Yongfu, what's the title on this gate?" ”

Yongfu glanced at Xu Jin quickly, with a thoughtful look on her pretty face, and Empress Wu smiled: "Since this is the place where Yongfu monks practice, it is naturally called Yongfu Temple." ”

Yongchun knew that this was not a Taoist temple at all, and her sister's ordination was just a pretense, so he immediately shook his head and said: "Yongfu is my sister's title, and now it has been cut off, so it is not appropriate to call Yongfu Guan." ”

Queen Wu was robbed of white, her face was a little unbearable, and she said lightly: "What does Sister Yongchun think is it called?" ”

Yongchun smiled slyly, pointed at Xu Jin and said, "Such a talented man is standing here, and he got a little girl in that round." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes invariably turned to Xu Jin, and Princess Yongfu was naturally no exception, looking at Xu Jin with beautiful eyes, obviously with a hint of expectation.

Empress Dowager Jiang said with a smile: "That's right, Brother Jin even has five yuan to explore flowers and the first, and it should be easy to choose a name." ”

Xu Jin secretly smiled bitterly, but he was famous, so he had to think about it for a while, and said, "Why don't you call it a shelter!" ”

Concubine Shu smiled: "This is good, elegant and easy to understand, not out of the ordinary, better than what to look at." ”

"Then call it a shelter, Yongfu, what do you think?" Empress Dowager Jiang said happily, she didn't mean to want her daughter to become a monk, she didn't like the nunnery, although the dust also has the meaning of birth, but it is better than the Taoist nunnery, and the word "dust" is also in line with Yongfu's tranquil temperament, I hope she is just to avoid the dust this time, and she will always return to the red world.

Yongfu nodded quietly and said, "It's good to live away from the dust." ”

Empress Wu wanted to step on a few words, but when she saw that Empress Dowager Jiang and Yongfu liked it, she could only swallow the words back.

Everyone entered the gate of the shelter from the dust, facing a rockery to block the view, under the rockery also built a pool with white stone, the middle of the pond base was left empty to make a flower garden, there were low flowers and trees planted on it, and the rockery was also covered with moss, making a landscape, looking a piece of emerald green.

"Good mountain!" The crowd blurted out.

The old eunuch Hu Dahai said with a smile: "Thanks to this rockery, otherwise as soon as you enter the door, the layout of the house will be clear at a glance, and naturally there will be a lot less elegance." ”

Empress Dowager Jiang nodded: "You old man is a little knowledgeable. ”

Hu Dahai said with an old face: "The old slave has served the Queen Mother for many years, and he has gained some knowledge. ”

Bi Chun patted his ass and said: "That subordinate is just a blind man with open eyes in front of Gonggong Hu." ”

Empress Dowager Jiang couldn't help laughing and scolded: "Come on, don't praise each other for the two of you old things, there is also a blank space on this rockery, what should I do?" ”

Sure enough, I saw that there was also a piece of polished marble left on the rockery, which should have been used for inscriptions.

Yongchun preemptively said: "This rockery is covered with moss, so it's called Stacked Cui." ”

Concubine Shu also joked: "Surrounded by flowers and trees, it's better to call it Jinzhang." ”

Empress Wu pouted and said: "It's not good, this is the place where Yongfu cultivates, whether it is Stacked Cui, or Jinzhang is too frivolous, according to the opinion of the palace, it is still called Xiao Zhongnan, and it is good to get a touch of the immortal spirit of the famous mountain and ancient temple." ”

After Empress Wu finished speaking, she looked at Empress Dowager Jiang with a little smugness, but the latter frowned, obviously not liking the name "Xiao Zhongnan".

Empress Dowager Jiang didn't want her daughter to become a monk, so it was strange that she could like the name "Xiao Zhongnan", but she looked at Yongfu and asked, "Which one does Yongfu like?" ”

Xu Jin naturally didn't want Princess Yongfu to become a monk, and yesterday he promised Jiajing to try his best to dispel the idea of becoming a monk in Yongfu, so he interjected: "This rockery is surrounded by flowers and trees, and there are clear springs, so it is better to call it Qinfang." ”

Princess Yongfu's eyes lit up and she nodded, "This is good!" ”

Yongchun rolled his eyes and muttered, "Isn't it better to stack cui?" In short, what Xu Jin said is good! ”

Princess Yongfu's cheeks suddenly flew away, and Empress Dowager Jiang glared at Yongchun: "The mourning family also thinks that the word Qinfang is better." ”

Princess Yongchun stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, yes, people also think Qin Fang is good, just Qin Fang!" ”

Xu Jin couldn't help but sweat!

Empress Wu glanced at Princess Yongfu with a pink face, a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, and Concubine Shu also seemed to show a thoughtful look.

Empress Dowager Jiang coughed lightly and said, "Go inside." ”

Just as everyone was about to go around the rockery and go inside, there was a sound of footsteps behind them, and everyone turned around to look, only to see Jiajing, who was dressed in civilian clothes, walking in in a hurry, and the imperial eunuch Huang Jinfu followed behind.

"The ministers see the emperor!" Xu Jin hurriedly saluted, and everyone present greeted the Empress Dowager Jiang, and they also saluted Jiajing.

Although it was a sunny day today, the temperature was still in the past ten degrees, but Jiajing's forehead was slightly sweaty, and he should have hurried over at once, he waved his hand and said: "No courtesy, the child asks the queen mother to say goodbye." ”

Empress Dowager Jiang nodded and said, "The emperor has just come down to court?" ”

Jiajing said with a smile: "No, the child heard that the queen mother was also out of the palace, so she changed into civilian clothes and came over, fortunately, you just entered the door." ”

Empress Dowager Jiang scolded lightly: "The emperor is busy with state affairs, why rush at both ends, you see that you are sweating, you feel the wind and cold carefully, quickly change your clothes." ”

Jiajing smiled disapprehantly: "It's not tight, it's just a little sweaty, the underwear is not wet, and the child is in good health, so it's so easy to catch a cold." ”

Concubine Shu hurriedly said with concern: "The emperor is a body of ten thousand gold, don't be careless." ”

Empress Wu only hated being robbed of the dialogue by Concubine Shu, so she had to say: "The emperor should change his clothes." ”

Jiajing waved his hand and said, "Don't bother, just wipe it with a sweat towel." ”

In terms of serving people's kung fu, Huang Jin is very clever, and immediately took out a sweat towel to wipe Jiajing's sweat, in fact, Jiajing didn't sweat much!

"What were you just discussing?" Jiajing asked with interest after wiping his sweat.

Yongchun's mouth was fast, so he told the story, and Jiajing said with a smile after listening to it: "The name of Dust Shelter is acceptable, but this rockery called Qinfang is not very brilliant." ”

Princess Yongchun didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, and said with a smile: "But Sister Yongfu likes it, if the royal brother has the ability, he also wants to have a Sister Yongfu like." ”

Jiajing smiled: "Simple, you see this living water flowing from between the rockeries, it is better to call it Epsom Jade!" ”

Empress Wu hurriedly propped up the field and said, "Wonderful! ”

The eunuch Bi Chun, who was standing behind Empress Wu, also immediately responded: "The emperor is quick to think, this laxative word is used wonderfully, it is simply a finishing touch." ”

Huang Jin also nodded and said, "Epsom jade is good!" ”

Xu Jin was speechless, no way, who called Jiajing with thick legs!

One is a son-in-law, the other is a "quasi" son-in-law, and the Empress Dowager Jiang is not easy to help, so she asked with a smile: "Yongfu, what do you think?" ”

Princess Yongfu turned her eyes and said implicitly: "This rockery is where the entrance of the main gate is located, is it not appropriate to use the word "epsom"?" ”

Jiajing was stunned for a moment, and naturally said to himself: "It seems to be ...... It's not quite right! ”

Yongchun covered his small mouth and laughed: "Let's use Qinfang, the word laxative is too vulgar, it's not good to open the door to see the toilet!" ”
