During the Lantern Festival in Beijing, incense and smoke are everywhere.

Early in the morning, news came from Yintai that there was a severe drought in the two Huaihe Rivers, and one-fifth of Daming Liang's Fu went in.

Braving the thunderous blow early in the morning, Zhu Yijun called Liang Yong to find Yu Shenxing, Wang Guoguang and other heads of the household department, and discussed the resettlement of the victims, the harvest year, the disaster relief bank of the household department, and the candidates for the accompanying ministers.He discussed some other matters, dragged it off until noon, and stayed in the hall for dinner before he wandered back to Qianqing Palace by himself.

Yangquan Palace

The palace is steaming hot, and the square pool is covered with white jade stones, and the four top corners of the pool are carved with white marble faucets, and hot water is continuously flowing into the pool at this moment.

The round walls of the hall were inlaid with round night pearls. Zhu Yijun was lying lazily by the pool wall, his face was flushed by the steam, and the white light was extraordinarily soft.

Japan's new Prime Minister Toyotomi Hideyoshi, judging from the intelligence in recent days, is very ambitious. Compared with his predecessor's military training and self-defense, this man's intention to attack North Korea is too obvious, and North Korea has made repeated aid to Ming Dynasty.

Nan'ao Island and Feixian Island are the necessary berths and transit points for commercial ships along the southeast coast. Yang Tingbao Haidun finally contacted the military inspection in January, and there was bad news that the Japanese navy was attacking Feixian Island.

At this time, the shogunate has existed in name only, and most of the Japanese warriors have become Japanese pirates.The Japanese government once signed a treaty of peaceful coexistence with Ming Dynasty, exchanged envoys, and Ming Dynasty canonized the former prime minister as the king of Japan.When Toyotomi Hideyoshi came to the throne, he also wore the crown clothes of the Ming Dynasty to welcome the envoys from afar.But now Toyotomi Hideyoshi self-destructed the terms and did not abide by the original treaty. According to the news from Yang Tingbao, the Japanese navy is obviously not as simple as passing by.

The whole body was submerged in the water, and suddenly warmed up. Zhu Yijun pulled back his thoughts, glanced at the figure behind the screen, and showed a thoughtful expression.

"Liang Yong, come in."

Seeing him standing on one side with his head bowed, Zhu Yijun asked straight to the point: "Liang Yong, has Mr. Hua visited you recently?"

Liang Yong's heart skipped a beat, he hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said: "A few days ago, I looked for my servant."

"Well," Zhu Yijun nodded casually, and suddenly gave Liang Yong a half-smile, "Huayulou has given you a lot of benefits."

Liang Yong shrank back, not daring to answer.

Thinking of what he said a few days ago in Huayulou, Dongnuange, Zhu Yijun sighed.He didn't believe that Hua Yulou's understanding of Qianqing Palace was based on speculation, and only a fool like Liang Yong would be bribed by him.

Thinking of this, his complexion instantly became ugly, and the tone of his words was also serious: "Liang Yong, as my personal servant, but you privately revealed my news to Hua Shilang, should I be happy for you?"

Master Hua wants to ask, how can I hold on.Liang Yong was muttering in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out: "Your Majesty, this servant has been wronged."

"The slaves didn't dare to say anything about Lu Daxia." Liang Yong said cleverly and sweetly.

Zhu Yijun glanced at him, and scolded with a smile: "Get up, there will be another time, and I will wring your tongue."

"Don't dare, don't dare." Liang Yong got up in a hurry, his movements were so fast that he felt happy, Zhu Yijun shook his head helplessly.

After being silent for a long while, Zhu Yijun ordered: "I will return to Dongnuan Pavilion in the afternoon, so I won't go to Ciqing Palace. The empress is not feeling well these days, you can go to the inner warehouse to get some nourishing medicinal materials and send them..."

After a pause, he said again: "It's better to go to the Imperial Hospital and find Imperial Physician Zhang." Zhu Yijun thought that the queen's body is not in good shape recently, so he added: "Send another copy to Kunning Palace."

"Yes, servant girl remembers."

At this time, there was a sound outside the palace gate, Zhu Yijun winked at Liang Yong, who hurried out and came back: "Your Majesty, it is Lu Wang Qiansui."

"Brother Huang" This is the voice of King Lu.

Standing in the pool, Zhu Yijun looked at King Lu who was standing in front of Liang Yong, only to be troubled for a while.He leaned back inadvertently, and said with a smile, "Why are you here?"

Standing in the water, Zhu Yijun looked very gentle. King Lu glanced at his bare skin, and smiled: "I have something to do with the emperor. I heard from the guards of Qianqing Palace that you will come with you when you come to Yangquan Palace."

Zhu Yijun nodded, "What's the matter?"

King Lu was not in a hurry to reply, he glanced at the spray of hot air, and looked at Zhu Yijun expectantly, "I haven't bathed with Brother Huang yet." The implication was that he also wanted to go into the water.

Zhu Yijun was taken aback, and looked up at him in surprise, a little dumbfounded, praying for intimacy filled Lu Wang's eyes, staring at him without blinking.

Lu Wang looked at him eagerly, and he was a little embarrassed. It is common for men to take a bath together. Zhu Yijun had seen Lu Wang take a bath when he was a child. As for now.

After a while, without waiting for his response, King Lu cut him off first and then played.

Zhu Yijun stared dumbfounded at the clothes falling off one by one, and his slender and strong bronze body was exposed in front of him. King Lu quickly took off his coat, leaving only a pair of obscene trousers, jumped into the water with a 'plop', and swam towards Zhu Yijun.

"What do you want from me?" Zhu Yijun looked at King Lu helplessly and dotingly, and repeated again.

Lu Wang walked to Zhu Yijun's side and leaned against the pool wall side by side. Under the light, his skin color was wheaten, and the silhouette of a strong naked man could be faintly seen in the water patterns.

Really good figure.Zhu Yijun raised his eyebrows, picked up a brocade handkerchief beside him to wipe off the water splashed on his face, and took the opportunity to look away.

"Chendi went to find Teacher Ge yesterday, and he will be leaving for his hometown in a few days." Having said this, he paused, with a very sad expression on his face.

King Lu said again: "A few days ago there was a commotion in Weihui's mansion. Yesterday, the teacher was kept in the school and lost his temper. Brother Huang, I want to visit Henan."

Zhu Yijun was stunned before he remembered that Ge Shouli's selection was retained by him again yesterday.The governor of Dongchang Mizhe Weihui wanted to recruit soldiers and horses, and there was a lot of movement.He was going to send people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate to conduct a thorough investigation. Should it be said that Ge Shouli really did his best?

Although Lu Wang is very smart and good at homework, he has never done any real work. Henan is in chaos like last time. What if he was assassinated? The Empress Dowager Cisheng will definitely not let him go.But his fiefdom is in Weihui, and he will be leaving in two years. Should he be arranged for deterrence first, so that Emperor Tiangao won't even know that he will be bullied by others.

Zhu Yijun was worried about all kinds of worries, King Lu turned around, buried his head in Zhu Yijun's neck, and said sullenly: "If Brother Huang doesn't want to, then I won't go."

The skin on the chest was closely pressed together, the scorching breath sprayed on the neck, there were bursts of itching, Zhu Yijun froze, and subconsciously wanted to reach out to push him away, but he was stunned when he heard Lu Wang's low and disappointed words one time.Only then did he realize that this younger brother hadn't been out of Sifang City for nearly 20 years.Thinking of this, Zhu Yijun blamed himself for always wanting to go out, but he was demanding people with double standards, forgetting that Lu Wang was also a young man.

Forget it.

Zhu Yijun patted Lu Wang on the shoulder, a little heartbroken and helpless, and said softly: "It's very chaotic outside, I will let Jin Yiwei accompany you when the time comes, you have to take care of yourself, don't let the queen mother worry."

"Yeah." Lu Wang lowered his head, the corners of his mouth curled up in a cunning way where no one could see, he tightly held Zhu Yijun's hand, and said with a trace of anxiety in his voice: "Then no matter what I do, the emperor will You can't be angry, you have to stand with me, okay?"

Zhu Yijun looked at King Lu as Zhu Yijun grew up, and he was mentally old enough to be an elder. He could say that he raised King Lu as a child, and thought that there was nothing wrong with Weihui's mansion, so he sent some hidden guards to protect him and disturb Weihui's mansion. It's okay to be messy, so he smiled and said: "Okay, even if you poked a big hole in the sky, Brother Huang will help you make it up."

King Lu suddenly raised his head, looked at him with bright eyes, and said happily, "I remember. No matter what I do in the future, Brother Huang will be with me."

Zhu Yijun looked at him fondly and shook his head.Emperor Mu Zong also said these words to him back then, and Zhu Yijun was excited for a while, but when he got into trouble, he still scolded him, and he could do whatever he wanted, sighing in his heart, after all, he was still a child.

After soaking for a while, he found that his hands were a little swollen. He told Lu Wang not to soak too much, so he hurriedly crawled out of the pool, his trousers stuck tightly to his slender legs, outlining a seductive curve, and took Liang Yong's hands. Handed over the towel, Zhu Yijun really didn't have the courage to do such a wretched thing like taking off his pants in front of his younger brother, so he turned and went into the inner hall.

Xiumei was tall and straight, her body as white as jade was exposed in front of her, and the dry fire in her body burst into flames instantly after being suppressed forcibly, Wang Lu followed Zhu Yijun away with his eyes, and then stood up with still unsatisfied intentions.And the uncontrollable strong reaction of a certain part made the maid at the side flushed with shame. He was impatient with the lady's slow wiping, so he grabbed the silk scarf and threw him out.

*

Not long after Zhu Yijun left, King Lu punished the maidservant of Yangquan Palace.

Ancient people seem to have this problem, the higher the position, the more accustomed to it.Zhu Yijun struggled for a while and then thought about it. Lu Wang is a typical prince and grandson, and his arrogant and domineering temperament can't be changed if he wants to. The queen mother drowned the grown-up King Lu.

Zhu Yijun reflected for a while and found that Lu Wang was a little too clingy to him. Theoretically speaking, this action will be related to the practice of "boys evolve into men". To put it bluntly, Zhu Yimiao's needs are not as strong as usual.

When he thought of King Lu, he thought of Yongning.Her pungent temper seems to be the style of the Empress Dowager Cisheng back then. It's time for this girl to get married. When Yang Tingbao comes back, she will take a post in the Ministry of War first, and then come to Princess Shang.Besides, this son-in-law can't be the ancestral system of the imperial court. When he has to talk to Wang Guoguang, it will be the last thing he does before retirement.

The Qianqing Palace is only one palace away from the Kunning Palace, and the sun has already passed the lunch time, so I walked to the palace where the queen lived.

The sweet-scented osmanthus across the lake sends a clear and distant fragrance, driving away the abnormal heat and humidity in autumn.

Zhu Yijun saw a court lady walking out of the hall holding money on a silver plate, and the plate looked like soup, so he asked Liang Yong to stop her.

"What are you holding?"

When the maid saw Zhu Yijun, she knelt down and saluted, and replied: "The medicine that the empress usually drinks."

"Medicine?" Zhu Yijun raised his eyebrows suspiciously.

The palace maid shook her hand and said hesitantly: "The empress...is suffering from a headache...this is the medicine prescribed by the imperial hospital."

Zhu Yijun frowned slightly, and said, "Go down." After speaking, he glanced at the medicine bowl on the plate, and left.

Empress Wang was sitting on the soft couch by the window, making a bright purple man's robe with care, when she saw Zhu Yijun coming, she looked happy, and hurriedly stood up to salute.

The maid guarding the room knelt down on the ground, Zhu Yijun helped her up, and glanced at the glass shards left on the ground. Although it was very hidden, Zhu Yijun keenly noticed it, and there was a flash of complexity in his eyes. With a gentle smile still on his face, he stretched out his hand to pick up the clothes and looked at them, and said with a smile: "I'm making clothes again. I can't go out of the palace a few times, and I can wear regular clothes a few times a year. I still have to deal with the tiring things." Do it for the people below."

Mrs. Wang was wearing an ivory homely dress, her ten fingers were as white and slender as onion roots, and she picked up the teacup on the table and handed it to Zhu Yijun. With a gentle smile on her upright and beautiful face, she said, "I have nothing to do on weekdays. To pass the time, stop and make up, how can I be tired."

Speaking of asking people to put away the sewing clothes, the two maids behind Wang smiled and stepped forward to collect the things, saluted and then backed out.

Zhu Yijun pulled her to sit on the couch together, Wang looked at Zhu Yijun with a smile, and asked, "Why is the emperor here?"

The Empress Wang's family is well-known for generations, and the family tradition is excellent. The empress dowagers of the two palaces were carefully selected and painstakingly selected.Only then did she find a lady who is stable, dignified and peaceful, without any pickiness in her appearance and behavior, just like Xue Baochai of the Ming Dynasty.

Seeing her paleness under her neat makeup, Zhu Yijun sighed in his heart, and said, "Is the queen sick? Let me come and see, my head hurts badly."

The smile on Wang's face remained unchanged, and she said softly: "I made the emperor worry about it. The concubine's old problem will be healed after a while."

Zhu Yijun saw her drooping temple hair slanted and inlaid with pearls and jasper swaying, smiling sweetly, with beautiful eyes looking forward, he couldn't help reaching out and stroking her fallen temple hair, Wang's eyes smiled back tenderly.

The two of them sat there quietly, talking a few words occasionally, which made the Kunning Palace look very warm.

"Your Majesty, are you going to start preparing for the concubine's appointment?" Mrs. Wang lowered her head and asked warmly.

"There are a lot of good girls in Beijing, and it's time for some newcomers to enter the palace."

Zhu Yijun was startled, turned his head unnaturally, looked at himself, the queen who was too virtuous, and said, "Let's talk about it later."

Wang's expression was complicated, and she subconsciously wanted to open her mouth to refute, but met Zhu Yijun's uncompromising eyes, and swallowed all the words.

After three years of marriage and no heirs, he knew that the empress was under a lot of pressure, because the problem would never be on Zhu Yijun, and people in the world would only think that the empress had problems.He wanted to go on walking with the queen supporting each other, even if they met each other like guests, but he didn't expect to be pushed further and further away.

"It's getting late, I still have some things to do in Qing Palace, I'm going back first." As he said that, he was about to leave.

Mrs. Wang also stood up hurriedly, wanting to send Zhu Yijun to the gate of the hall, but when she heard Zhu Yijun's words, she paused.

"Sixian, don't drink that medicine in the future."

Zhu Yijun's tone was resolute, Wang stood outside the door and watched him go away, and returned to the hall until he could no longer see the figure, stroking his lower abdomen, his expression a little sad.

The emperor doesn't like beauty, she is alone in the harem, this is a great favor from heaven.She knew it was wrong but she was also secretly happy, it was still wrong after all.If she can have a child now, why bother to make the emperor unhappy every time, her body has not moved for a long time, the imperial physicians have checked and checked, diagnosed and diagnosed, but she has never been pregnant.Everything can only be caused by her own problems, so how can he be charged with this big crime of unfilial piety.

The maid behind Wang saw her expression, helped her back to the couch, and softly persuaded: "The emperor is here, why didn't the empress let the emperor stay, maybe..."

Wang frowned slightly, and said sadly: "The emperor wants to leave, how can I stay?"

The palace maid kept her mouth shut, stepped aside, and couldn't help asking again: "Your Majesty, the medicine should be brought now."

Mrs. Wang was startled, shook her head after a while, and said, "Forget about it today."

The palace maid responded, went out and ordered the silver tray to be removed.

Zhu Yijun returned to Qianqing Palace, the maids and servants consciously waited outside the palace gate, and Liang Yong followed him step by step.

After standing in the hall for a while, he put down his pity and regret for the woman in the deep palace, and prepared to pick up and read the memorial that he had forgotten.

I saw that there were many things in the bamboo and wooden cage on the imperial case.It is also deliberately placed in the very center, so you can see it at a glance.

Zhu Yijun stretched out his hand to open it, but Liang Yong at the side took the first step and opened the cage.

The white steamed stuffed bun was uncovered, the fire was just right, and the aroma was overflowing.

Zhu Yijun's eyes lit up, and he felt someone behind him, so he turned around quickly.
