"Your Majesty is back today, so you don't intend to meet him?"

Hanyue pursed her lips and sat up, "I'm just a scout now, an idiot, so I'm not qualified to see His Majesty."

Concubine Hui shook her head helplessly: "If you hadn't really provoked him this time, how could he be so determined to punish you? You should know how much His Majesty loved you before."

"Yes, yes, in the heart of the empress, His Majesty is the best person in the world. Obviously, I was the one who was wronged, but the empress has been speaking for His Majesty all the time."

Although Hanyue muttered the last sentence in a low voice, Concubine Hui still heard it, she sighed, "You child, how can you compare yourself to this."

Han Yue is going to stick to the end today: "It's just for comparison, the empress said in person, in your heart, do I have more, or Your Majesty has more?"

Concubine Hui was pulled by Hanyue's arm and shook vigorously, she was completely defeated in dizziness, and when she was about to say that she was a little more, she heard the sound of bead curtains colliding from the door.

It turned out that Zhu Yu entered the pavilion with several sets of clothes.

"Sister Zhu Yu came at the wrong time." Han Yue complained with her mouth flattened.

"If the servant has to report, I ask the girl to forgive me."

Zhu Yu is used to seeing Hanyue cheating, but he smiled slightly and bowed to the two of them, "Ma'am, this is the autumn clothes sent by His Majesty. I just looked at it. The material is very strong and the workmanship is fine. Your Majesty should want to let you wear it." You wore it when you were in Mucheng."

Concubine Hui nodded: "I see, you can put it there first."

"Yes." After Zhu Yu agreed, he put his clothes on the wooden table and quit the cabinet.

Hanyue was very trustworthy, and as soon as Zhu Yu left, she went up to pick up one of them and looked at it carefully, and sighed: "They are all high-quality Qingjiang silk, so I didn't realize that Your Majesty really cares about your empress."

Concubine Hui just glanced at the rare pattern and turned her head, "In the past, I didn't go to autumn hunting, and these good materials were sent to the Queen's Palace. Your Majesty treats all the sisters in the harem equally, and has never shown favoritism. Who, it's just that this year's hard work fell on me, to give some sweetness."

"Your Majesty, how can you say that? Your Majesty sent the Queen the hunting clothes because he felt sorry for your weakness and didn't want you to work hard. Now that there are so many things happening in the new mansion, Your Majesty still thinks of sending you clothes. Isn't it because you are thinking about it? What!" Hanyue compared the clothes to her body while saying witty words.

Concubine Hui smiled and said, "Just now I was saying that I was biased, but you are not the same now."

Hanyue put down her clothes and said coquettishly: "It's not the same. I said these words to make my mother happy. If you ask me who to kiss, I will definitely choose my mother!"

Concubine Hui couldn't say that she had such a small mouth that was used to coaxing her, so she had to change the subject: "You are right. If you like these clothes, you can take some of them home and wear them."

Hanyue was quite happy at first, but suddenly she dropped her clothes and walked back to Concubine Hui: "Forget it, I can't go with you this time in Autumn Hunting, and it's useless to take the clothes."

Concubine Hui blinked: "Why?"

"I was left in Xinxia to guard the gate by those bastards under Old Wu's subordinates."

Hanyue said angrily, followed by a pair of agile eyes, and then she turned around and grabbed Concubine Hui's sleeve and continued to act like a baby, "Mother, can you help me count one more time, please, let's see when I can get back to you." reinstatement."

Concubine Hui was a little embarrassed: "This hexagram can only be used as a reference and guidance. If the calculation result is against the sky, according to my opinion, you might as well go to see His Majesty directly and tell him about your recent experience. His Majesty loves you. ..."

Hanyue pursed her lips again, "How could he feel sorry for me? When he went, he would only hear that I was petty, and he would also say, 'You can't even bear this bit of suffering and you are still a leader'. I got some comfort, I didn't expect that the empress would not love me anymore."

Concubine Hui looked at this set of small mouths, she really couldn't resist her, so she obediently took out the turtle shell of copper coins.

Hanyue happily brought a charcoal basin for her.

Concubine Hui clasped her hands together and prayed to the sky with the copper coins in her hand, and when the tortoise shell was burned in the fire, she scattered the copper coins on the table.

The copper plate made a tinkling sound, but Concubine Hui froze for a moment.

Han Yue stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Concubine Hui: "Your Majesty, how is your Majesty? Can you tell when I will be able to return to my post?"

Concubine Hui raised her eyes, but for a moment she didn't dare to look into Han Yue's eyes, she lowered her head and smiled: "Probably after this autumn hunt."

"Great!"

Han Yue firmly believed in Concubine Hui's words, she was instantly full of fighting spirit, "I'm going to the school for training now!"

Concubine Hui was so immersed in her own thoughts that she even forgot to say goodbye to Hanyue. It was only when Zhu Yu said at the door, "Miss, go slowly."

She frowned, and then took out an unfinished embroidery from the small mezzanine on the sidewalk.

If anyone is talking about Dong Lin’s most troubled person these days, it’s none other than the Minister of Rites, Huoqin. The annual Mucheng autumn hunting has been prepared for a long time, but Xingdi never gave him permission. Preservation is still a small problem. The manager of Mucheng always sends people to remind him, which is really exhausting.

Thicken Gorgon has worked in the Ministry of Rites for more than ten years, but even now he still can't figure out Emperor Xing's temperament. He might cancel the autumn hunting one day if His Majesty is unhappy, so Gorgon Gorgon didn't dare to push too much, so he had to pretend Deaf and dumb to deal with it, next to the closed door to be a shrinking turtle.

I thought it would be over for a while, but who knew that the empress had a new funeral, and the people revolted, so Emperor Xing actually pushed this mess to him.

The Ministry of Households has not seen the shadow of the transfer of money for a long time, but the Ministry of Rites needs to spend money for everything, and there are a lot of real money, but the officials of the Ministry of Rites, such as Hu Gorgon, are sallow and emaciated, and their eyes are black and blue.

Today, I just finished dealing with the funeral of the queen, and the Gorgon is lying on the side of the mansion. I don’t want to move it again. The Ministry of Rites really has nothing. Even if I want to do something, I have to wait for the minister to order it from the Ministry of Households. Approve the bank.

It's just that God didn't give Hugh Gorgon a chance to catch his breath, and before his old waist was flattened, the servants came to report, and the servant of the Ministry of Rites came.

Huoqian sat up immediately, although he couldn't rest, but as long as the money is in place, many things can be solved, so he immediately asked his servants to bring the servant into the lobby.

The servant of the Ministry of Rites also had a face of lack of sleep and malnutrition. He took a sip of clear tea that was like white water, and when he saw the thickened corn, he shouted hoarsely, "My lord."

Thicken was full of anxiety, and grabbed the servant's hand, "How is it, but good news?"

The Minister of Rites pursed his lips: "Indeed, it's a happy event."

Huo Qian couldn't wait, "Quickly tell me, is the money approved or His Majesty is going to go hunting in autumn?"

"Neither." The servant's face was full of bitterness, "Yes, the crown princess, gave birth."

"Birth, birth?" Huqian murmured and repeated, then rolled his eyes and passed out.

"Uh!"

"My lord, my lord!"

The waiter caught the thickened limp body and the bloodshot eyes of the boss, and shouted heartbreakingly, "My lord, wake up quickly! If something happens to you, how can we live!"

Changxing Marquis Mansion, Qing'an Hall.

Shen Lingyuan received the cronies sent by Su Shu this morning. He was sitting at the stone table in the courtyard while writing a letter while learning about the specific situation. After chatting for a few words, he saw Lu Xiao hurried in with a piece of rice paper in his hand. .

Shen Lingyuan stopped writing, and asked Lu Xiao in surprise, "He came from the palace?"

Lu Xiao nodded.

Shen Lingyuan immediately frowned. He has almost locked the whereabouts of Lao Wu now, so he also informed Concubine Hui that there is no need to submit any more information. Logically, concubine Hui should not take risks when the emperor returns. Could it be that something happened? what variable?

The more Shen Lingyuan thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. He quickly finished the letter in hand, sealed it with wax, and handed it to his cronies, "You must hand it to Mr. Su, and tell him to be careful."

"I've made a note." The student responded and saluted Shen Lingyuan, then left the small courtyard with ease.

After the students disappeared, Lu Xiao stepped forward and asked, "Are you sure that Wu Hao is following Su Shu's private school?"

"Well, it's basically confirmed." Shen Lingyuan nodded, "But to be on the safe side, I decided to ask Mr. Su to hand over the recipes in his hands to Shoutian, and then senior Shoutian to Senior Meng Jian. Senior Meng Jian's clothing bureau is in Xinxia City, if any accident happens, it will be convenient for me to lead the city inspector to respond. However, the most important thing now is when Emperor Xing is going to leave."

"Soon. Just in the next few days."

Shen Lingyuan was taken aback by Lu Xiao's answer without thinking, "How did Brother Xiao know?"

Lu Xiao put the rice paper on the stone table and sat opposite Shen Lingyuan, "Do you know about the premature birth of the Crown Princess?"

Shen Lingyuan nodded: "I heard about it this morning."

Lu Xiao: "This child is the first son of Emperor Xing's grandchildren. Logically speaking, the Ministry of Rites should organize a ceremony to sacrifice to heaven in the East Palace, and the prince will go to heaven to pray for the newborn."

Shen Lingyuan thought for a moment: "I've heard about this, but what does it have to do with Autumn Hunting?"

"The Ministry of Rites has been preparing for the autumn hunting trip in Mucheng two months ago. The guard of honor and accompanying rations will be damaged and corrupted. The Ministry of Rites needs a lot of money to maintain it, but the Ministry of Households has to appease the crowd The common people are unable to collect taxes for the time being, and all the money has to be used to maintain the operation of the Ministry of War and the court, so this sudden ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven cannot be carried out unless the crown prince pays for it himself."

Shen Lingyuan: "The empress is in a new funeral, Prince Rui's life and death are uncertain, and the crown prince has no obstacles in front of him and no way out. He would rather not sacrifice to the heavens than make a big show at this time. The Ministry of Rites is well aware of this, so the best way is to Arrange this ceremony in Mucheng to reduce the imperial court's expenditure."

"That's right." Lu Xiao nodded.

Shen Lingyuan: "It seems that we can already start preparing for the next thing."

But Lu Xiao shook his head: "No, leave this to me to prepare, you still have one more thing to do."

Shen Lingyuan was puzzled: "What's the matter?"

Lu Xiao pushed the piece of paper in front of Shen Lingyuan, and said a word in a low voice.

Shen Lingyuan's eyes widened instantly, and he said in surprise, "You mean Concubine Hui wants to meet me at the Prince's Mansion?"

The author has something to say:

Yu: Let me tell you why you were not so sharp-tongued when facing Shen Lingyuan.

Hanyue: Are those sweet words and beauty tricks that I know about your feet useful to him?

Fish: Uh...

When I was writing the article today, I suddenly wanted to eat three delicacies.
