The June Yafeng Poetry Meeting of the Six Princes Hongzhao is set on this day on the sixth day of the first lunar month.

It is said that on this day, scholars from all over the world would take out all the books in their homes to dry to prevent insects.

Since it is a collection of books, then people naturally can't go away, after all, books are still very precious these years, especially rare collections, which are even more priceless and difficult to buy.

So, the scholars simply sat in those exposed books, and continued to study in the shade while drying the books.

There may be scholars who are also drying books nearby, so these people gather together to discuss knowledge with each other.

Over time, the day evolved into a festival of reading books and exchanging ideas with peers.

In fact, not only on the sixth day of the sixth month of June, but also on the seventh day of the seventh month of July, the begging (Qiqiao) Festival in the eyes of women is also a day for scholars to exchange books and knowledge.

The reason why there is a custom of drying books in summer and autumn is that there is a rainy weather in summer and a humid climate.

However, as far as Zhao Hongrun knows, there was no such custom in the Great Wei Dynasty at the beginning, and this custom seems to have originated in the Qi State at the earliest, and then it was slowly introduced to the Great Wei Dynasty and became one of the Shilin customs generally respected by the scholars of the Great Wei.

On the sixth day of the sixth month of June, Zhao Hongrun woke up at two or three o'clock as usual.

There is no way, the fourteen-year-old body is in the development stage, not to mention that he runs crazy in and out of the palace every day, and it is strange that he is not sleepy.

After getting off the bed and putting on a vermilion brocade dress, Zhao Hongrun had a meal in his bedroom Wenzhao Pavilion, and then took the guards out of the palace without much delay.

Today's first stop is naturally Yuqiong Pavilion, because yesterday Zhao Hongrun had made an appointment with the imperial sister Princess Yulong to take her to the June Yafeng Poetry Meeting of the Sixth Emperor Zhao Hongzhao, after all, he has no way to take her out of the palace to play, so he can only let her borrow the poetry of the Sixth Emperor Brother to drive away the boredom.

However, after a stick of incense, Zhao Hongrun arrived at Princess Yulong's bedroom Yuqiong Pavilion, he and the guards waited in the front hall, and asked the maids in the palace to go to the inner room to make a report.

Not long after, Princess Yulong led her personal palace maid Cui'er out of the bedroom.

Today's Princess Yulong seems to have been dressed up, although she did not wear any luxurious ornaments on her body, nor did she apply rouge, but it is undeniable that this plain beauty makes people's eyes shine.

"Born beautiful......

Zhao Hongrun couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart.

"Hongrun, you're here." Princess Yulong said hello to Zhao Hongrun.

After all, after more than a month of getting along, she gradually figured out the character of the imperial brother in front of her, and her demeanor was no longer as restrained as at the beginning, but regarded Zhao Hongrun as a close relative, and treated her younger brother Hongxuan with Zhao Hongrun.

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Hongrun also gradually made a joke about the imperial sister in front of him: "The imperial sister is very beautiful today." ”

"Nothing." Princess Yulong glanced at Zhao Hongrun, but the expression on her face was very happy, and it could be seen that she was actually not a girl who was good at hiding her true feelings.

instructed the personal palace maid Cui'er to serve Zhao Hongrun a cup of tea, but Princess Yulong still said with some hesitation: "Hongrun, can I really go to the poetry meeting of the Six Princes with you?" I always feel that this is not in accordance with the etiquette......"

Indeed, according to the etiquette in the Great Wei court, the prince who has not left the cabinet is not allowed to have any palace maid close to them, and the princess who has not been out of the cabinet is not allowed to approach men other than members of the clan, otherwise, the clan and the Shangyi Bureau will punish them accordingly.

"Don't worry, I'm prepared."

Zhao Hongrun was relieved, reached out and took out something from his arms, and put it directly on Princess Yulong's face.

"Let's go and look at the bronze mirror."

"Oh......"

Princess Yulong curiously touched the smooth and slightly cool silver mask, ran back to the bedroom, and looked at herself in the bronze mirror, only then did she realize that this mask covered half of her face from above her cheekbones.

It turned out that Zhao Hongrun had already considered this matter, so after leaving Yuqiong Pavilion yesterday, he sent Zongwei to the Ministry of Industry to make such a mask.

may have never received such a novel little gift, Princess Yulong looked left and right at the bronze mirror, looking like a little daughter.

I have to say that the craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry are quite reliable, and the production of this mask is very exquisite, and Princess Yulong did not feel the slightest discomfort after wearing it.

It's Princess Yulong who thinks it's weird, and there's a bit of freshness in it.

After looking at the bronze mirror for a while, Princess Yulong returned to the front hall, at this time Zhao Hongrun was slowly drinking the tea offered by the palace maid Cui'er, when she heard the footsteps, she turned her head to look at it, and said with a smile: "In this way, no one can see your appearance, sister, even if the Shangyi Bureau learns, it can't be blamed." ”

Princess Yulong couldn't help but be a little happy when she heard this, after all, she also wanted to follow Zhao Hongrun to see the Yafeng Poetry Society, which enjoyed a high reputation in Beijing and the palace, but she was worried that this move would be punished by the Shangyi Bureau, so she always seemed hesitant.

Now that Zhao Hongrun has thought of a suitable solution for her, she will naturally be moved.

"That'...... Will you go now? ”

Seeing that a mask made Princess Yulong change from a hesitant state of mind to a state of interest, Zhao Hongrun was also slightly amused in his heart, and said slowly and methodically while drinking tea: "Yes! …… But before that, I still suggest that the imperial sister change into the clothes of that day, after all, there are many people in the palace, and they are too ostentatious, and they are not good after all......"

As he spoke, Zong Wei Shen Yu handed over a cloth bag in a timely manner, which contained three sets of new clothes that Zhao Hongrun had not yet worn, one of which was worn by Princess Yulong when she quietly slipped out of the palace with the help of Zhao Hongrun during the Duanyang Festival last month.

"It's still Hongrun, you're thoughtful." Princess Yulong stuck out her tongue, hugged the cloth bag and returned to the dormitory.

When she reappeared, she had transformed into a personable son, but unfortunately, this personable princess was still full of a daughter's posture in her gestures, putting aside the novelty, it made Zhao Hongrun feel very awkward no matter how she looked at it.

"How? Doesn't it look like Hongrun on weekdays? ”

Princess Yulong didn't seem to notice the strange expressions on the faces of the Zongwei behind Zhao Hongrun, and walked back and forth in front of everyone a few times and made a few movements according to the movements that Zhao Hongrun taught her that day.

"This ...... What is like my Highness?'

The sect guards looked at each other, and it was not easy to say what they thought in their hearts, so they had to nod and vaguely praise the two sentences for learning similarly.

However, in Zhao Hongrun's opinion, Princess Yulong has obviously learned much better than on the day of the Duanyang Festival, and she can't force too much. After all, how can the habits of a fifteen-year-old daughter be changed overnight?

"It's not too early, so let's go, lest the six emperor brothers think I'm sorry again." After drinking the last sip of tea, Zhao Hongrun got up and stood up.

Seeing this, Princess Yulong explained a few words to the palace maid Cui'er, and then followed Zhao Hongrun out of Yuqiong Pavilion.

On the way to Yafeng Pavilion, the group met many palace maids and eunuchs. Because of Zhao Hongrun's relationship, those palace maids will naturally take a detour with interest, and even if they can't make a detour, they will temporarily hide in the garden, but they are not worried that Princess Yulong will be seen through by them.

On the contrary, those little eunuchs are a little troublesome, but fortunately, Zhao Hongrun's "murderous reputation" in the palace is not low, but few little eunuchs dare to look up.

So there was no danger along the way.

When he arrived at Yafeng Pavilion, from a distance, Zhao Hongrun saw Zhao Hongzhao, the sixth emperor brother, standing outside the hall, waiting for someone with his hands behind his back.

Waiting for whom? It's not just waiting for Zhao Hongrun!

Because of the experience of a missed appointment, to be honest, Zhao Hongzhao was not sure whether he, the eighth brother, would come to the meeting this time.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is ready to kill Wen Zhaoge at any time.

However, according to the current situation, Zhao Hongrun is still quite acquainted, and he did not make this royal brother with a superior mind angry.

"Huh!"

Seeing Zhao Hongrun leading a group of Zongwei from a distance towards his Yafeng Pavilion, Zhao Hongzhao smiled slightly, and was about to step forward to greet him, when he suddenly noticed Princess Yulong dressed as a man behind Zhao Hongrun, and his face immediately showed a little suspicion.

It's no wonder, after all, Princess Yulong has a slender figure, even if she is dressed as a man and mixed with Zhao Hongrun's guards, it is particularly eye-catching, not to mention that she also wears a strange mask.

"Wouldn't it? Hongyun brought "her" to me?'

Hongzhao muttered in his heart, although he didn't delve into which one his eighth brother Zhao Hongrun sneaked out of the palace to play on the night of Duanyang Day last month, but he had already guessed which one was a princess in the palace who had a good relationship with Zhao Hongrun.

While he was muttering, Zhao Hongrun had already led Princess Yulong and all the Zongwei to the sixth emperor brother, and greeted him with his hand: "Imperial brother." ”

"Hmm." The sixth prince Hongzhao nodded, and couldn't help but look at Princess Yulong, who was hiding.

Zhao Hongrun also knew that the Sixth Emperor Brother had already guessed a few points, but he no longer bothered to hide it, and said to Princess Yulong in a low voice: "The imperial sister doesn't have to hide, in fact, the Sixth Emperor Brother has already guessed a few points...... Out of the way, the Six Emperor Brothers are trustworthy people. ”

In fact, Princess Yulong didn't want to hide anything, she was just subconsciously hiding, and now when she heard Zhao Hongrun say this, she hurriedly stood up and said, "Imperial sister Yulong, I have seen the six princes." ”

As a prince who has obviously reached the age requirement to leave the cabinet but delays leaving the cabinet because he is deeply loved by the Son of Heaven, the sixth prince Hongzhao is eighteen years old this year, and the eldest Princess Yulong is three years old, so Princess Yulong needs to hold the imperial sister when facing him.

"Yulong? Is it the daughter of the deceased Xiao Shuxi? How could Hongyun have a friendship with her?"

Hongzhao frowned slightly and thought for a moment, and couldn't help but be a little surprised in his heart.

After all, as far as he knew, Princess Yulong was not a princess in the palace who was favored by their father, and there was almost no news about her in the palace all year round, as if she lived in the palace or not, and there was no sense of existence at all.

And what about his eighth brother Zhao Hongrun? That is the prince who is currently in the limelight in the palace, especially after the Duanyang Festival destroyed the prince of the East Palace in the Wende Palace, I don't know how many people in the palace are talking about this prince.

One is a princess who has never heard the Son of Heaven mention, and the other is a prince who is now more and more loved by the Son of Heaven and praised as a pearl.

However, since it was invited by his eighth brother Hongrun, even if the sixth prince Hongzhao felt that it was not very appropriate for Princess Yulong to be mixed among them as a daughter, he could not help but give the eighth brother Hongrun this face.

"Hongrun, Yulong, please."

"Brother Huang, please first."
