The seventh day of June is the 45th birthday of the Son of Heaven in Chengde.

This Son of Heaven ascended the throne at the age of twenty-six, and this year is already the nineteenth year.

The Son of Heaven in Chengde is the ruler of the Great Jin Dynasty, although he is not as martial as the first emperor, but the living conditions of the people of the Great Jin Dynasty during the Chengde period are far better than those of the first emperor.

Moreover, although this Son of Heaven gradually became rich with the Great Jin, he did not have too much extravagance, and the internal money in the palace was even free every year, and the remaining internal money was taken out by the Son of Heaven in Chengde to reward people or do good deeds.

All in all, this is a very popular emperor, at least much more popular than the former emperors who were reckless.

On the birthday of the Son of Heaven, the whole city naturally shook, and many ordinary people did not have the opportunity to see the Son of Heaven, so they set up a shrine at home, paid tribute, and prayed for the blessing of the Son of Heaven.

Originally, a small shrimp like Li Xin had no chance to meet the Son of Chengde at this time, but fortunately, there was a ninth princess by his side, thanks to the blessing of the ninth princess, Li Xin was at the gate of Princess Qinghe's mansion early in the morning, ready to enter the palace with Ji Lingxiu.

As long as you are an official in the court, there will be at least three sets of clothes, official clothes, regular clothes and formal dresses, and a set of armor clothes like Li Xin.

Because he belonged to the military attaché, Yu Linwei's dress was not a long shirt with wide sleeves, but a black dress with tight sleeves, and a snow-white tiger embroidered on the front placket, which looked very majestic.

The patterns of the Yulinwei and the inner guard in the capital are all tigers, symbolizing the two tigers guarding the real dragon, each with a tiger flag, but the colors of the two flags are different, the yellow tiger on the red background of the inner guard, and the white tiger on the black background of the Yulin guard.

The color of the dress of the two bathrooms is also set according to this.

People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, Li Xin usually wears that black dress at most, without any pattern, this is the first time he wears Yu Linwei's dress, at this time he has grown a lot taller, and the whole person is thin, wearing this clothes, he looks a lot more energetic.

Ji Lingxiu, who came out of Princess Qinghe's mansion, glanced at Li Xin up and down, and snorted lightly: "Dress a little more seriously, but you still have some looks." ”

The black clothes were more heat-absorbing, although it was already a little hot in the morning, Li Xin coughed, and greeted Yu Linwei, who was guarding the princess next to him: "Let's go." ”

Ji Lingxiu took two steps forward, pulled Li Xin's sleeve, and asked in a low voice, "What did you prepare for your father?" ”

Li Xinshen said mysteriously: "The princess will get on the sedan chair, and I will definitely not let you lose face in front of Your Majesty." ”

The ninth princess glanced at Li Xin suspiciously, and finally got into her sedan chair, Li Xin turned over the dark cloud horse, and the group walked in the direction of Miyagi.

When they arrived at the gate of Yong'an Gate, horses and sedan chairs were not allowed to enter, but Ji Lingxiu was born as a princess, and after a short time, there were two little eunuchs, carrying a sedan chair for two people, and invited the princess of Qinghe.

Li Xin followed behind Ji Lingxiu and also entered the imperial city.

The sedan chair that can walk in the imperial city is actually the kind of open-air chair, which can only sit one person, on the one hand, it is not possible to hide people, and on the other hand, it is also afraid that someone will hide weapons into the palace.

In addition to this kind of sedan chair, only the imperial city licensed by the imperial power can ride a horse if you can walk in the imperial city, but that kind of treatment that only people who are extremely human ministers are eligible to enjoy, and only Chen Guogong Ye Sheng has this treatment in the entire Great Jin, but that old man Ye has self-grounded and has not been out of Chen Guogong's mansion for more than ten years.

Li Xin followed the sedan chair of the ninth princess in an orderly manner and entered the inner palace.

The imperial city is divided into two cities, the outer city is just a place where various yamen in the capital gather, such as the yamen of the three provinces, the six yamen and the imperial history platform, etc., all of which are in the outer city of the imperial city.

And the inner palace is the palace where the emperor and the concubine live.

In the past, when Yulinwei was on duty, Li Xin came to the outer city of the imperial city many times, but he only entered the inner city twice, that is, the two times that the emperor of Chengde summoned him.

This time is the third time.

After entering the inner palace, Ji Lingxiu searched around, and finally found the seventh prince Ji Wen in the square at the gate of Changle Palace.

Ji Lingxiu stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and said happily: "Seventh brother! ”

Li Xin also lowered his head and clenched his fists: "Your Highness." ”

The Seventh Prince was originally closing his eyes to recuperate, but when he saw this, he glared at his sister-in-law, and then returned the salute with a fist at Li Xin, and said with a smile: "Brother Xin was also pulled by this girl." ”

Although the dress on his body is a summer dress, it is still quite cumbersome, and at this time, the sun is rising, and His Royal Highness the King of Wei has begun to sweat on his forehead.

It's just that there is no way, the gate of Changle Palace has not been opened, whether it is the prince or the hundred officials, they have to wait here.

Seeing that his brother ignored Li Xin and ignored him, Ji Lingxiu snorted angrily and turned his face away.

Li Xin stood closer and asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, how is the matter of pushing spirits in the army?" ”

In the past few days, Li Xin has been busy in the proud building, and the seventh prince is busy in the court, although the two of them are busy with one thing, they haven't seen each other for several days.

His Royal Highness King Wei exhaled a breath and said slowly: "A batch of wine has been sent to the north through the military department, and the follow-up will depend on how the soldiers in the north react." ”

Speaking of this, the Seventh Prince also lowered his voice and asked, "How did you go to the Ye family yesterday?" ”

Captain Li smiled bitterly and said: "Chen Guogong is very difficult to mess with, he almost beat me up, but he still likes the wine very much, and asks us to send a few jars every month." ”

"If he's willing to take it, he'll take it."

The Seventh Prince nodded and said: "The Ye family has a great influence in the north, Ye Ming, the son of General Ye, is still a general in the north, the first batch of wine we sent over is to send it to Ye Ming, and it is always beneficial to have a good relationship with the Ye family." ”

With an existence of Ye Sheng's level, no matter what it was, as long as he was willing to accept it, countless people would rush to send it to Chen Guogong's mansion.

And it's better to give it away for free and not charge money.

Li Xin was at the gate of Chen Guogong's Mansion that day, and the reason why he told Ye Mao that he wanted to collect money was to dispel the Ye family's doubts and let the Ye family know that this was not a bribe, but a simple kindness.

After all, playing tricks in front of an old guy like Ye Sheng may backfire, and only by treating people with sincerity can you reap the kindness of the Ye family.

The two of them communicated in a low voice, and then heard the morning bell ringing at the gate of Yongle Palace.

The great eunuch Chen Ju stood at the gate of the palace and sang loudly: "The Son of Heaven has a holy birthday, and hundreds of officials are congratulating." ”

His Royal Highness King Wei tidied up his clothes and whispered to Li Xin: "The palace door is open, I will go in first, and the specific matters will wait for today's matter, let's talk about it slowly." ”

Li Xin suddenly glanced up at the Seventh Prince, and asked, "Your Highness, I helped the Ninth Princess make a gadget for Your Majesty, Your Highness shouldn't mind." ”

Ji Wen rushed towards Changle Palace with Chao Wat in one hand, and waved his hand freely with the other.

"I don't mind, I don't mind, if my father likes it, it's Xiao Jiu's blessing."
