Consort, she is reborn

Chapter 130 Winter Solstice Festival

The wind and snow did not stop in the afternoon, but it was not easy for the group to stay in the palace for a long time, so they set off to return to Beijing after all.

It snowed heavily for another day, and the snow on the road was thicker than it was yesterday, so that the road where the horses and horses could travel would occasionally need temporary snow removal by the Imperial Army to be unimpeded.It is also because of the need to open the road while walking, the return journey is much slower than the time when we came, and it was not until dark that we could faintly see the outline of the capital city tower.

The emperor's drive is always extraordinarily delicate, and the bumps are hardly felt when driving on the road.The spacious palace is also furnished quite comfortably, with tables, chairs, soft couch, tea, and chess games.

On the way back to the city, the emperor asked Song Zhen to play chess after drinking the decoction.

Nearly a year has passed, and with Ming Da and Tang Zhao's teachings from time to time, Xiao Song Zhen's chess skills have actually improved a lot.However, facing the emperor, he still looked immature, and he started scratching his head and scratching his head within a while after the chess game, thinking for a long time about every move.

Seeing the child frowning and looking embarrassed, the emperor was in a good mood.He picked up the teacup and took a sip. The fragrance of the tea slightly concealed the bitter taste in his mouth. After waiting for a while, Song Zhen finally hesitated to take a sip, and the emperor followed closely without thinking twice, and then Xiao Song Zhen was about to continue meditating on the chessboard.

The head servant knelt on the side, lowered his head slightly, and did not watch the emperor bullying the children.

At this moment, there was an inconspicuous knocking sound from outside the carriage, the chief servant raised his head, and saw the emperor glance over.So he saluted silently, and then quietly moved to the door of the car, without disturbing the little prince who was meditating.

The car door was opened silently, and what was delivered into the car compartment with the cold wind was a sealed bamboo tube.

When the head servant saw the mark on the bamboo tube, he knew it was important, took it in a hurry, closed the car door, returned to the emperor and presented it with both hands.During the period, Song Zhen, who was facing him, was still aware of it. He raised his head and glanced this way, but the child was also quite winking. Seeing the emperor's serious expression, he knew whether he should ask more questions, so he lowered his head silently.

At this time, the emperor didn't have the heart to pay attention to the child, he lifted the wax seal and opened the bamboo tube, and took out the letter paper inside and read it at a glance.After reading it, he frowned and then wrinkled, obviously distracted by the contents of the letter.

At this moment, I heard a light "click", but it was the sound of a chess piece falling on the expectation.

emperor

After recovering, Song Zhen finally made another move on the chessboard.However, after Song Zhen made the move, he also understood that the game probably couldn't be played anymore, so he raised his head and said, "If the father has something to do, he will deal with it first. We can find time to play this game of chess."

Hearing the words, the head servant was also ready to seal up the chess game, but after returning to the capital, the emperor might not have any free time.

However, the emperor waved his hand when he heard the words and said: "There is a beginning and an end, it's just a game of chess, and we won't wait for the next time." After he finished speaking, he re-stuffed the letter into the bamboo tube, sealed the bamboo tube and handed it to the chief servant: "I believe you dear." Send it to Mingda."

The chief servant took the order, and at the same time he bowed and retreated, he saw that the emperor had dropped another son.

He asked Ting Yu to get off the car, and braved the wind and snow to run to the princess's car, and handed the bamboo tube to Ming Da.

Mingda recognized it immediately after receiving the bamboo tube. This is the method used by the hidden guards to deliver messages. Despite the simplicity of the bamboo tube, it hides a mystery.She tapped the bamboo tube lightly with her fingertips, and then asked the chief servant, "Do you have any orders, Brother Huang?"

The head servant hurriedly replied: "Return to Your Highness, not at all." After a pause, he continued: "Your Majesty is playing chess with your Highness."

When Mingda heard that the emperor still had such leisure, the tension in his heart suddenly eased a little.After sending away the head servant, she leaned on Tang Zhao to open the bamboo tube, and took out the letterhead to read with Tang Zhao.

As soon as she read the beginning, Mingda raised her willow eyebrows, but before she could finish reading the letter, the carriage that was driving stopped again.Before the inside of the car could ask, the driver outside had already reported in a low voice: "Your Highness, the front of the line stopped suddenly, do you want the villain to go and inquire?"

Mingda moved his fingers slightly, then slightly folded the letter paper in his hand, and said loudly: "No need, just wait."

The coachman answered "Yes", and there was no more movement outside.

After about half a quarter of an hour, the stagnant team started moving again.Tang Zhao lifted the curtain of the car to look out, and was hit by the cold wind.She didn't put down the car curtain because of the cold weather, she squinted her eyes and looked at it for a while, then suddenly pulled Mingda's sleeve.

Then Mingda looked along what she was pointing at, and saw that the white snow beside the road was dotted with red.

When the team of offering sacrifices to heaven returned to Beijing, it was already dark. Fortunately, the emperor's royal driver didn't have to worry about opening and closing the city gate.With an order, the gates of the city that had already been closed had to be opened obediently to welcome the emperor and all the officials back to the city.

The good winter solstice holiday was consumed by two days of offering sacrifices to heaven. After returning to Beijing, the emperor did not restrain the officials anymore, so he ordered the people to disperse and return home.There is still a day off tomorrow, and the ministries and offices will not resume work until the day after tomorrow.

Mingda has been living in the palace these days, and was going to go back to the palace tonight, but suddenly received a letter from the emperor on the way, saying that she and her son-in-law have not returned home for many days, so why not go back to the princess mansion tonight .

Suddenly receiving this news, Ming Da was a little surprised: "What's the meaning of this, Brother Huang?"

Tang Zhao raised his hand to dismiss the servant who sent the message, and then replied: "Perhaps your Majesty wants to spend more time alone with Ah Zhen."

In fact, the emperor has gotten along well with Song Zhen recently, the former is dedicated to teaching, and the latter is rarely cared about by his elders.After coming and going, Song Zhen quickly developed admiration for the emperor, especially after he was assassinated and moved to Xuanshi Palace to live with the emperor, the relationship between father and son was even more rapid.This made Mingda even worried, fearing that the emperor's brother would die one day, and the children who had just established a relationship would not be able to accept it.

However, Mingda didn't think that today's incident had anything to do with it, but it was getting late, and it was hard for her to go after Yujia to find out.So he had no choice but to go back to the princess mansion with Tang Zhao, full of doubts.

After a peaceful night, Mingda sent people out to inquire about the news the next day.

About being sent back to the Princess Mansion suddenly by the emperor last night, Mingda naturally wouldn't ask others to ask, what she asked people to inquire about was what happened on the way back to Beijing yesterday.It was easy to inquire, before noon Mingda got the news, it turned out that the team was halfway through, a herd of wild boars suddenly rushed out of the mountain, their rampage almost disturbed Sheng Jia.

There are also rumors that there are assassins taking advantage of the chaos, but not many people have seen it, and they are just echoing what others say.

People who came from the palace never believed in coincidences, not to mention that with the news, Mingda also got another news—the doctor Yushi was suddenly called into the palace by the emperor this morning, and he has not returned yet.

Mingda wouldn't think too much about changing the candidate, but the identity of Doctor Yushi is...

Tang Zhao was more straightforward, asserting: "The doctor Yu Shi entered the palace today, and I'm afraid he won't be able to get out."

Mingda also felt the same, and his thoughts drifted to the letter that he had read yesterday—the letter from the dark guard was the letter sent by Fei Ge, the doctor of imperial history, to Emperor Yanping when he reported the emperor's serious illness. thing.At that time, in order to track, Ming Da's subordinates just copied the letter, and then continued to fly the pigeons to track.Later, this matter was reported to the emperor, and the matter was taken over by the emperor.

Now that some time has passed, the shadow guard's pursuit has also yielded results.They tracked all the way south to Yongzhou, and tried their best to track down. They thought they could catch Emperor Yanping who had been hiding for many years, but in the end they only caught a double.

The emperor was annoyed by this, and felt that he and the others might have been deceived by the imperial censor and the others. In addition, those wild boars who came yesterday were obviously not kind, so he simply summoned them into the palace and detained them.

Afterwards, thinking about it, I knew that there were a lot of tricks, and I was determined to pry Dr. Yushi's mouth open.

Thinking of this, Mingda's thoughts suddenly paused, and he looked at Tang Zhao with surprise and worry.Because she suddenly remembered that even though Tang Zhao did not agree to contact Doctor Yushi and the others, she was still their young master in the eyes of these people.If the doctor Yu Shi couldn't bear the torture, or if he slipped his tongue and mentioned Tang Zhao...

Just thinking about it like this gave Mingda a chill in her heart, she suddenly grabbed Tang Zhao's hand and said, "Ah Zhao, you have been following me closely these days, don't leave my sight."

Tang Zhaohui held Mingda's hand and said with a smile, "When have I separated from Your Highness?"

This is true, Mingda's tense brows and eyes relaxed slightly.

Tang Zhao obviously knew what she was worried about. He sat side by side with her and said softly, "Your Highness, don't worry. When I mentioned Dr. Yushi to Your Majesty, I thought about this day. There is no impenetrable wall in the world. Maybe you don't even need to ask Doctor Yushi to speak, His Majesty has already suspected me. But it doesn't matter, because I have Your Highness."

From the outsiders' point of view, the emperor's health is obviously in good shape, and he even carried the winter festival to heaven.Perhaps it was precisely because of this that the Yushi doctor and other talents made the wild boar to test the emperor's details without the order of Emperor Yanping.But Tang Zhao knew very well that even if the emperor's body had to be nourished, it was impossible to recover to such a state in a short period of time.

When the two met each other when they were young, Tang Zhao knew the emperor's temperament very well. He was the kind of person who could do anything to achieve his wish.So seeing the emperor getting better day by day, she felt that she was watching him step by step on the road to ruin.

When the dead end comes to an end, the only one who can be trusted by the emperor is Mingda.

At this time, the emperor will never break face with Mingda.Now that Mingda and Tang Zhao are in deep love again, as long as the emperor is not confused and is not sure that Tang Zhao is really rebellious, he will not do anything to her.

Tang Zhao has something to rely on and is not afraid at all. As for the future... Neither she nor Mingda are people who are attached to power.

Thinking of this, Tang Zhao turned his head to look at Mingda, with a slight apology in his eyes: "Your Highness, if there is a day between the honor of the princess and me, you can only choose one..."

Mingda raised his hand to press her lips, and blocked the rest of her words: "Don't ask me, I've already chosen it, haven't I?"
