Chang'an, Tingwei's Mansion.

Han Zhaozhi walked in quickly from the outside, and saw Fang Bailu in a daze by the lotus pond before he made progress, he stopped his footsteps, Fang Bailu has been in a daze more and more times these days, Han Zhaozhi asked him a few times, only that his body was indeed a little tired and had not eased up, but it had been so long since he came back from Xishu Road, how could it be that he hadn't eased up?

Han Zhaozhi walked to Fang Bailu's side, and when he was about to get to the front, Fang Bailu had just seen him, and hurriedly bowed down: "My lord." ”

Han Zhaozhi snorted: "Is there something wrong at home?" ”

"No, no."

Fang Bailu hurriedly shook his head: "I just saw that the lotus flowers in the lotus pond were about to bloom, thinking that An Guogong had been away from Chang'an for so long, and I didn't know what the war in Western Xinjiang was." ”

Han Zhaozhi looked at his face, and then looked at the lotus pond: "Is there something wrong with you and Huang Niansheng Huang Girl?" ”

"No, sir."

Fang Bailu said: "There is no problem. ”

"Is she the right fit for you?"

"I think it's appropriate."

"If you think it's suitable, that's suitable, don't care about other people's eyes, you are marrying a wife for yourself and not a wife for others, I know that there have been some rumors recently, saying that you have fallen in love with the relationship between Huang Niansheng and Concubine Zhen, otherwise, how could you pursue a woman who is seven or eight years older than you...... Fortunately, I haven't heard this in the Tingwei Mansion, I heard someone from the Criminal Department a while ago, so I talked to Lord Ye, and the gossip has been dismissed by Lord Ye, and he slapped his mouth forty before dismissing the official. ”

Fang Bailu shook his head and said: "I don't care what others think, I think she is a good girl, I want to take care of her, I want to accompany her, I think the two of us can go all the way to the end, thank you, and thank you, Lord Ye." ”

Han Zhaozhi nodded: "If you can't think about anything, feel free to talk to me." ”

He turned around and walked towards his own courtyard, and after walking a few steps, he turned back: "Did Miss Huang tell you something?" ”

Fang Bailu shook his head again: "No." ”

Han Zhaozhi snorted, always feeling that something was wrong in Fang Bailu's eyes.

Fang Bailu let out a long breath and told herself that she was really just thinking too much, she was such a simple woman, how could she have too much scheming? It's just that her words have been spinning in Fang Bailu's mind, and every day she can't help but think of it, and every time she thinks of it, Fang Bailu will be in a trance.

She said that she had been preparing to meet His Majesty.

It was an unintentional sentence, but Fang Bailu felt that there was something different in this sentence.

In the evening, Fang Bailu returned home, as soon as he entered the door, he saw several clothes hanging in the yard, he smiled, went into the door to look for Huang Niansheng's figure, found the note she left on the living room table, and told Fang Bailu that she had gone back, to help him clean up the house inside and outside, and found that there were a few clothes to be washed by the way.

She is the gentle woman, he said that he hopes to let her move in with her, this is actually obvious enough, as long as she nods, he will immediately ask Lord Han to propose marriage for him, although he is not capable of organizing a sensational wedding for her, but he feels that he can marry her in the most beautiful way.

The last four words of the note warmed his heart even more...... Eat well.

He walked into the kitchen, there was a food box in the kitchen, and the heat inside came out after opening it, and the food box was three layers, with two plates of hot dishes and a plate of equally hot steamed buns, her cooking skills were not particularly outstanding, and she couldn't make that kind of exquisite dishes naturally, but let her make something like cabbage and potatoes, and the taste always made people feel that home was the most comfortable place.

Fang Bailu sat down and finished the meal in a big gulp, there was not even a drop of soup left in the two dishes, and he wiped them clean with steamed buns, as if he had never let go of the dishes.

Getting up and brushing the chopsticks and plates, Fang Bailu walked out of the kitchen, and the moonlight was already bright.

Sitting in the courtyard, Fang Bailu once again thought of Huang Niansheng's words...... In fact, I have been preparing to meet His Majesty.

At the same time, Weiyang Palace.

In Concubine Zhen's palace, she glanced at Huang Niansheng who was embroidering in front of her, if she hadn't come, where would Concubine Zhen have been able to endure it, maybe she would have already set off for Dongjiang.

"Embroidered what?"

Concubine Zhen took a closer look, and it turned out to be a pair of mandarin ducks.

"Are you two already going to talk about marriage?"

"He ......"

Huang Niansheng opened his mouth, his face changed slightly, and after being silent for a while, he shook his head: "He always said that as long as I nodded, I would set a date immediately, but I didn't dare to marry him, he was a Qianban of the Tingwei Mansion and had a bright future, and I was just an ordinary woman, even so much older than him, not to mention ......"

Huang Niansheng lowered his head: "I went to ask Lang Zhong, it seems that I am not very good at my age, if I marry him but can't give him children, he will be looked down upon even more." ”

Concubine Zhen snorted: "You are a coward." ”

Huang Niansheng was stunned.

Concubine Zhen glared at her and said, "You only say whether you like him or not." ”

"If you like it, you can like it with all your life."

Huang Niansheng's needle accidentally punctured his finger, and he trembled slightly in pain.

"But ......"

She looked at Concubine Zhen: "What if I can't accompany him for the rest of my life?" ”

Concubine Zhen suddenly thought of something, she looked at Huang Niansheng and asked seriously, "Are you hiding something from me?" ”

Huang Niansheng shook his head: "No, Niangniang, I'm just ...... It's too old. ”

Wanton Mao Zhai.

The emperor glanced at the old dean who had become more and more energetic in recent days, still curled up on the chair and covered with a blanket, the weather was already very hot, but he was more and more afraid of the cold, the emperor asked the hospital to send a few people to serve the old dean, the people of the hospital reported to the emperor every three days the old dean's physical condition, the people of the hospital said that the old dean's health is fine, but I don't know when there will be an accident, because he is indeed too old.

"Sir, I still remember that I was going to leave the academy to lead the troops in Northern Xinjiang that year, and you said that I couldn't go yet, and I asked you why, and you said that I was too young."

When the old dean heard this, he laughed: "It's really too young, it's only sixteen that year." ”

The emperor said: "Later, I thought, in fact, my husband did not think that I was too young to go to the battlefield, but that I was afraid that I would never see me again. ”

The emperor got up and changed a cup of hot tea for the old dean: "You have no heirs, you treat me as a family member." ”

The old dean laughed, his face full of satisfaction.

"So I have always felt that I am very happy, although my father does not like me, but my husband likes me."

He put a plate of dim sum in front of the old dean, all of which the old dean loved to eat.

"I want to eat hot pot."

The old dean glanced at the emperor: "The kind of hot pot that Shen Leng came to cut white tofu." ”

The emperor laughed: "I know, you want to persuade me to call him back, until now I haven't thought of a way to make him reasonable in Western Xinjiang, after all, I have clearly announced that he is going to Eastern Xinjiang, and I just received a military report today, saying that the rest and the black warriors may have arrived, and it is still useful for Shen Leng to stay there, I just feel that I owe him, I know very well, no matter where he is, his military merits will not be less than others, but this time I really can't give him a reward." ”

The emperor got up and opened the communication box on the table: "This is the communication box from the western Xinjiang." ”

The old dean took the secret music and opened it to look at it, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Shen Leng is not doing this properly, he went out in the name of Li Tuming, if such a great military achievement is not reported, there is no way to explain it in Western Xinjiang, and if it is reported, the military department and the household department and other yamen will have to investigate and verify it......"

The emperor said, "That's why I want to be willful once." ”

He glanced at the old dean: "Shen Leng wants to give Li Tu life, he can't give it, I can give it." ”

The old dean said: "But this time ......"

The emperor smiled: "I scolded Lai Cheng yesterday for no reason. ”

The old dean snorted and laughed: "So Your Majesty is thinking that he scolded Lai Cheng for no reason, and then relieved him a few words and handed over this matter to Lai Cheng?" ”

The emperor said: "I am the emperor, of course I can't carry the black cauldron." ”

The old dean said: "The minister knows, and the minister will go down to chat with the adults of the Ministry of War in private." ”

The emperor snorted: "Still Mr. understands me." ”

He glanced at the old dean: "The second prince Changye has been clamoring to go to the Western Frontier recently, and I am almost annoyed by him......"

The old dean heard something from His Majesty's tone, although the second prince was only thirteen, but the child was full of maturity, he knew that this was not unrelated to Shen Leng, relatively speaking, the crown prince Li Changze did not have such a great influence on the second prince, and he also heard that as long as the second prince mentioned Shen Leng, he would use the word "master", which is not right.

"I don't have anything more to give Shen Leng to."

The emperor let out a long breath: "So I want to leave it to Changye." ”

The old dean's face changed suddenly, the emperor shouldn't have said this.

"Don't be afraid, I'm just talking to Mr., who else can I talk to? Mr. didn't treat me as a pure emperor, I didn't treat him as a pure courtier, Mr. regarded me as a family member, why didn't I treat him as a family member? ”

He shouted out, "Release the boat on your behalf." ”

"The slave is here."

Dai Fangzhou hurriedly ran in: "Your Majesty ordered." ”

"Go prepare a hot pot, I want to have supper with my husband."

"The slave obeys."

Dai Fangzhou hurriedly ran out.

The emperor lowered his voice and said: "Yesterday, Changye suddenly came to me, saying that he wanted to worship Shen Chayan as his righteous sister, and it was one thing for me and Concubine Zhen to accept Chayan as a righteous sister, and it was another thing for him to worship Chayan as his righteous sister, I was taken aback at the time, Changye was only thirteen years old, how could he think of these things?" Did he also think that it was impossible for me to give Shen Leng any reward this time, so he ......"

The old dean leaned over and said, "Concubine Yi can be the queen." ”

He didn't say this, but today because of His Majesty's family, the old dean still couldn't hold back.

In any case, Concubine Yi is more suitable for the queen than Concubine Zhen.

The emperor was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "I will not give the throne to others anymore, and Concubine Yi also knows very well that if Concubine Zhen does not agree, I will not make a queen." ”

He got up and walked to the window: "The queen's pre-release...... I have already promised Changye. ”

The old dean sighed inwardly.

However, it is also happy.

Relatively speaking, it's more fun.

"Sir, wait a little longer, and when there is good news about the war in Western Xinjiang, I will summon Shen Leng back in advance and ask him to cut white tofu for you."

The emperor pulled up his cuffs: "Tonight, I will cut white tofu for Mr." ”

After saying this, the emperor shouted outside: "Put the boat on your behalf, go to Concubine Zhen's palace, and let Changye come over and pour wine for the old dean." ”

The old dean's heart grew warmer.

There are four words he doesn't dare to say, and he will never dare to say them, but he can't help but think in his heart, this feeling is not like that...... Three generations of grandparents?

It's really good.

Exceptional.
