Zhuo Qihua

Chapter 187 Heartache Watching

His Majesty ordered Ling Zangfang to make new jewelry and sent them to Xiangfu Palace. In the evening, His Majesty even went directly to Xiangfu Palace for dinner.Those concubines in Danyang Palace who still don't understand the situation don't understand, His Majesty has already closed the door and thought about it, why is it like this?

"Your Majesty is not a fake punishment?"

Qi Yiguo also couldn't understand.Tong Yifeng said indifferently: "Your Majesty and we don't get involved in the affairs of Chu Zu. Tomorrow you and I will leave the palace, and tonight you rest early, and Chen Zhu will be taken by the nanny."

Qi Yiguo immediately became happy: "I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight."

"If you can't sleep, you have to sleep. Will you wear two dark circles under your eyes tomorrow in front of the Empress Dowager?"

Qi Yiguo immediately shook his head.

Emperor Yong'an was furious before, and found that the Empress Dowager who had mistaken her partner was so guilty that she forgot about the "female son-in-law".I remembered it again two days ago, and immediately ordered someone to pass the order to go to the theater.Tong Yifeng and Qi Yiguo are now in charge of the theater, and they will leave the palace with the empress dowager tomorrow.Huang Gui Xie, De Gui Xie and Xi Gui Concubine will not go, it is rare for them to leave the palace, they have to be busy with business.The others, Concubine Wen, Concubine Xiao, Concubine Jing, Jin Tong and others all followed, and the Empress Dowager specifically asked the emperor for instructions and got permission.Zhuo Ji wouldn't go, neither would De Guixie, and Ming Xun didn't feel like going alone, so he wouldn't go either.Yuan Susu is the only noble person who is qualified to go, she has a dragon son by her side, so her status in the palace is naturally different.The empress dowager also meant to stabilize the harem.

In Xiangfu Palace, Zhuo Ji, who had been punished for thinking about it, was only wearing a pair of thongs, sitting on the bed, and His Majesty the Emperor put the new waist chains sent today on his waist, and the anklets on his ankles. On the ankle, compare which one looks the best.Emperor Yong'an was also only wearing pajamas.Every time he put on one, he stepped back to have a look, then stepped forward to touch and kiss Ai Shi's body, then took it off and replaced it with another one.

Finally tried on all the waist chains and ankle chains, Zhuo Ji is already in full swing, and Emperor Yong'an is about to explode.On his waist was a waist chain made of emerald jade beads, and on his feet were ankle chains of the same style. Zhuo Ji knelt on the bed and took off his clothes for Emperor Yong'an who was standing beside the bed.The naked Emperor Yong'an immediately pressed Ai Shi on the bed, and pulled off the belt of Ai Shi's thong.The paternity wearing the waist chain, seduced Emperor Yongan's soul.

This night is naturally spring breeze.Emperor Yong'an didn't go to court the next day, so he slept for a while before getting up.When he woke up, the first thing he saw was Zhuo Ji.Zhuo Ji still slept deeply, he was tired last night.The ears were still swollen, Emperor Yong'an reached out and touched Ai Shi's waist lightly, the waist chain had been removed, otherwise it would be uncomfortable to sleep.No longer in love with the bed, Emperor Yong'an got out of bed.Zhang Xian, who was already guarding outside, dressed His Majesty.

After leaving the dormitory, Emperor Yong'an stopped: "Let Shunxi wear the pearl chain today."

"Yes."

Emperor Yong'an left satisfied.

Zhuo Ji woke up in the middle of the morning, and was told by Xiaohui that His Majesty wanted him to wear the pearl necklace today.Last night, Zhuo Ji, who suffered back pain from the brave emperor, put it on resignedly.That man is using all means to get him out of the "disorder", and let him always remember that he is a brother, not a pure man.It seemed that the theater had irritated that man a lot, Zhuo Ji smiled.

After putting on the waist chain for the master, Xiaohui asked while dressing the master, "Master, what do you want to do today?"

Zhuo Ji: "I'm sorting out the logbook today. I have to write some other things after sorting out the logbook. Just prepare the paper every day. You go and call Wang Bao, Quan Sheng and Liang Qi, I have something to tell them."

Xiaohui: "Okay."

For these three months, or in other words, Zhuo Ji's plan for a long period of time has been determined.He wants to write down the basic theories of several branches of medicine that he is familiar with.In the future, Mata country will establish a specialized medical school and carry out medical divisions.If there is one thing he most wants to leave in this world, it might be the development of medicine.

After Wang Bao, Quan Sheng and Liang Qi arrived, Zhuo Ji gave Wang Bao two blueprints and said, "Take Quan Sheng and Liang Qi to find Feng Xi, and ask Feng Xi to take you to the cabinet to see Shi Shangshu." Then Said to Quansheng and Liang Qi: "You two will follow Shi Shangshu to make the things on the blueprint. This thing must be ready before the tenth day of March. Before that, no news should be leaked, especially to Your Majesty." Looking at Wang Bao: "That's what you told Shi Shangshu."

"The servant understands."

Wang Bao put away the two pieces of paper and left with Quan Sheng and Liang Qi.



While Zhuo Ji was still asleep, the mighty motorcade from Danyang Palace left the palace again.The Empress Dowager is going to the Broad Theater, so naturally the venue will be cleared in advance along the way.Even if it is inconvenient to clear the place, it is also guarded by the forbidden army.

On the side of the road, among the crowd blocked by the forbidden army, there are many candidates from various state capitals who came to Beijing this year to take the exam.There is less than a month until the college exam, and some students also like to come out and walk around before the exam, to get some fresh air and change their minds.Broadway Theater is a place that students like to go to.As long as they are not too shy, they are willing to ask someone to help them grab tickets and go to Broadway Theater to watch a play.

There are many types of plays in Broad Theater, and they are novel, and sometimes the repertoires performed can give students some inspiration for reading, so Broad Theater is a place for students to at least go to see the world.

Today the Empress Dowager and the noble lord of the harem went to the theater to watch a play, and the rest of the people naturally couldn't go.I heard that the theater is performing a new play "The Female Consort" for the Empress Dowager today.Before the queen mother wanted to see the result but didn't watch it, Tong Yifeng temporarily suppressed the play, and after the queen mother watched it, it will be performed publicly.

The people and students in the capital are naturally curious about what drama this "female son-in-law" is, and it will make the empress dowager and all the harem dignitaries come to watch it.There was a lot of discussion.Among the crowd, there was a tall, handsome man dressed like a student, staring at the luxuriously dressed carriages that belonged to the noble lords of the harem passing by.I don't know that person, but among them?I heard that the man was very favored after entering the palace, and gave birth to a dragon son for His Majesty the next year.Thinking of this, the man felt sour in his heart.This is his choice, he forced that person into the palace, why is he feeling sad here?

Common people are timid, but students are very bold.Some students chased after the convoy, wanting to bet on the real face of the Empress Dowager from the shortest distance.The man drifted with the crowd and went with him.When they arrived at the corner of Chenxiang Street where Broad Theater was located, the students were stopped.The entire Chenxiang Street will be strictly controlled during the period when the Queen Mother is watching the drama.The Imperial Army responsible for the safety of the empress dowager and your lords will not drive away the students, but they are not allowed to go any further.

The man has a certain reputation among the students in the south. You asked me to give way to everyone, but the man was actually given up to the front position.The empress dowager came out first.Her Majesty, without her veil, entered the theatre, holding the hand of her valet.Then got out of the car were two noble masters dressed as brothers.Both of them were wearing veiled hats, but the man's eyes were firmly fixed on the noble master who was obviously much taller than the other.The two lords also entered the theater, and their carriage was taken away.The man had no time to pay attention to the noble master who got out of the car behind, he bit his jaw hard, he was afraid that he would not be able to help shouting that person's name, causing irreparable disaster for the other party and himself.

The students didn't disperse until all the lords got off their horses and entered the theater.The man was pushed away by the flow of people and lost his mind.Seeing this, one person said: "Brother Wen Qing, you are..."

Xu Mohan forced a smile: "I originally wanted to go to the drama today...after tomorrow, I have to study hard behind closed doors. I don't know when I will be able to come here, so I feel a little regretful."

The other party agreed: "Yes. There is less than a month to go, and we can no longer be as carefree as today. However, Brother Wenqing is full of glory, but there is no need to cram for the time being like me."

Xu Mohan was not in the mood for socializing, and just said: "Until the moment the results are released, no one can guarantee that they will be able to go to high school. Brother Lin, Xu has an appointment, let's go first."

"Ah good."

Xu Mohan endured the sourness in his heart and left.

Princess Wu Shao, Princess Xianyi, and the two concubines also came to the theater to watch plays in the name of the Queen Mother.This is an absolute honor for them.In the Bailao Theater, few people came because of Mrs. Huang.Tong Yifeng sat on the left side of the queen mother.After the Empress Dowager indicated that he could start, he signaled to the steward who was waiting on the side. The first scene of "Female Son-in-Law" in Beijing's Bailao Theater officially opened.

Today's scene, the Queen Mother liked it, and the others also enjoyed it.The first performance had a perfect curtain call, and the Queen Mother said in a rare way: "Although this theater was created smoothly, after Zhaotong and Chuntong took over, not only did no trouble happen, but it also got better and better. Good. We will release more new and good plays in the future." , the old man will come to see it often. Watching dramas in theaters is different from watching dramas in the palace, so it’s no wonder that Shunxi wants to build this theater.” Finally, the conversation turned to Zhuo Ji, which shows the empress dowager’s love for Zhuo Ji .

Everyone in the palace has long been used to His Majesty and the Queen Mother treating Shunji as treasure.Tong Yifeng said: "The servant does not dare to take credit. The story of the 'female son-in-law' was told by Sishen and Chunyou, and the two of them could write the script. He also told the story of ' The story of "Yang Naiwu and Xiaobaicai" has already been written by the two waiters, and it has been changed into a script. The actors in the theater are now rehearsing the play."

The queen mother became interested when she heard it: "'Yang Naiwu and Xiaobaicai'? I want to see it."

Tong Yifeng: "Queen Mother, this drama is a bit sad."

The queen mother immediately asked: "Is Liang Zhu sad?"

Tong Yifeng: "I don't think so, but if the Empress Dowager sees it, I'm afraid she will be sad too."

The queen mother immediately said: "As long as Liang Zhu is not sad, it's okay. When the rehearsal is over, you must tell the old man."

Tong Yifeng: "I will definitely serve you."

Princess Wu Shao said: "The empress dowager, I also want to see it."

The queen mother smiled and said: "When the arrangement is complete, I will send someone to call you."

Princess Wu Shao and Princess Xianyi were very happy, as were the two princesses.

After watching the drama, the Empress Dowager and concubines are going back to the palace.The motorcade returned to the palace, which naturally attracted the attention of many people.Xu Mohan, who originally said to go back to have an appointment with someone, wore a hat half-hidden his face, and sat in the private room on the second floor of the "Fuyang Restaurant" where he could see the motorcade, feeling deeply affectionate.His eyes were fixed on the carriage that followed the queen mother, and his heart ached terribly.

After Wang Bao took Quansheng and Liang Qi out of Xiangfu Palace, he immediately went to Fengtian Palace.Feng Xi wanted to serve His Majesty, but when he heard that Wang Bao was looking for him, Feng Xi told his master and went out.Emperor Yong'an naturally didn't pay attention to whether Feng Xi was present, he was reviewing the preparations for the Maritime Affairs Department reported by the cabinet.

After Feng Xi learned of the meaning of Wang Baolai sent by Zuo, he went back and whispered a few words to his master, then left Fengtian Hall, and took Wang Bao and three people to the cabinet.Zhuo Ji was very shy about having contacts with the ministers of the previous dynasty, let alone the ministers of the cabinet.Even if he just sent the eunuchs around him, it was not enough to avoid suspicion, so Wang Bao called Feng Xi, and Feng Xi stepped forward.Zhang Xian is the number one eunuch beside His Majesty, if Zhang Xian shows up, it will not be easy to deceive Emperor Yong'an.Of course, sending Feng Xi may not be a secret, but at least it can make Emperor Yong'an not pursue too much, and is willing to wait for the surprise that Zhuo Ji gave him.

As one of the cabinet ministers, Shi Yu tried his best to work in the cabinet most of the time.Knowing that Eunuch Feng, who was next to His Majesty, asked to see him, but the other party did not enter the cabinet, Shi Yu hurried out of the Lanyuan Pavilion.When Shi Yu learned the reason from Feng Xi, he was really flattered.Taking the blueprint from Wang Bao with both hands, he said to Wang Bao: "Please report this matter to the king, and I will definitely do my best to deliver it to the king before the tenth day of March."

Wang Bao: "You have worked so hard on Shi Shangshu, and this servant will go back and report to the master."

Feng Xi and Wang Bao didn't stay any longer, so they left.Shi Yu told Quansheng and Liang Qi to wait first, then he returned to Lanyuan Pavilion and said, "I'm going to the Academy of Sciences."

Shi Yu didn't say what he was doing, and no one else would ask.Shi Yu hurried away, and after a while, a member of Zhongshu She in Lanyuan Pavilion said: "Shi Shangshu seems to have taken two eunuchs away."

King Wu Shao: "I'm afraid His Majesty has something to explain."

The Zhongshusheren didn't know Quansheng and Liang Qi, so he thought it was very possible, so he didn't say anything else.

Shi Yu is beautiful in his heart.Isn't it obvious that he is preparing a birthday gift for His Majesty before the tenth day of March?He was going to prepare a birthday gift, but he was found, which shows his position in Zuo's heart!Shi Yu did not forget to tell: "The two father-in-laws went to the Academy of Sciences and said they were sent by His Majesty."

Quan Sheng and Liang Qi: "That's the way it is."

Zhuo Ji wanted to give Emperor Yong'an a birthday present, and only the Academy of Sciences had the equipment he needed.It is impossible for him to do it by himself, but he doesn't want to hand it over to the craftsmen of the Academy of Sciences. Only Quansheng and Liang Qidai are the most suitable for him to do it.Zhuo Ji's birthday present was safely handed over to Shi Yuhe Academy of Sciences, and he devoted himself to translating the logbook.Every logbook is very important to the future navigation and shipping of Mata country.As for Lu Mending, Emperor Yong'an had already sent someone to take him back to Dengzhou Port, give him a broken ship, and drive him out of the country.Yuan Bosai, Zhang Yousi and Li Wansheng were secretly executed, and Li Wansheng ransacked his family and family.The three pirate ships brought by Yuan Bosai and Lu Mending were retained, and after being refitted, they will be the first batch of ships to be transported by sea to Peiban.

On the 23rd day of the first lunar month, Lin Yi and Qin Zhongyi, who traveled to Dengzhou quickly, returned to the capital with a large suitcase, and quickly entered the palace to face the saint.Inside the suitcase were the nautical charts that Rumentin had hidden.Emperor Yong'an asked the eunuch to directly carry the box of nautical charts to Xiangfu Palace. He put down what he was doing and went to Xiangfu Palace immediately.Zhuo Ji was still translating the logbook, and he was extremely excited when he learned that the nautical chart had been delivered.

After Emperor Yong'an arrived, he immediately asked Zhang Xian, Feng Xi and others to display the nautical charts one by one.But when the nautical chart was taken out, Emperor Yong'an was a little dumbfounded: "Is this the nautical chart?"

The nautical charts are painted with monsters and giant beasts, which do not look like nautical charts.Even Zhang Xian, Feng Xi and Chang Jing felt terrible.Zhuo Ji smiled and said: "Human beings are unknown to the sea, and they are also afraid. The original nautical charts in the Middle Ages would use mythical creatures in mythology to represent sea monsters, so they look scary. The nautical charts we want to see It is the area and regional characteristics of the routes and passages on the chart. Usually, sea experts will mark them in detail on the chart as much as possible. Because a slight difference is a thousand miles away, and it will affect the supply during the voyage, especially the supply of fresh water. .”

Hearing what Ai Shi said, Emperor Yong'an stopped panicking.

Zhuo Ji looked through hundreds of nautical charts, and was very satisfied: "These charts are enough for Mata country's long-distance fleet to explore the most important areas of the world."

Emperor Yong'an frowned: "There are so many charts, you can't do it alone, you will be exhausted."

Zhuo Ji thought about it: "Make a compass first, not something like a compass. After the compass is made, Your Majesty lent me the King of Qin to use it. There are rules for drawing nautical charts. As long as you master this rule, these nautical charts will not be difficult. Decipher it. If the king of Qin comes forward, I will correct it again, and I won’t be very tired.”

Emperor Yong'an doubted: "Can he do it?"

Zhuo Ji: "This servant needs to be taught personally." This is also a place where there is no way.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Yong'an immediately said: "Then it's time to come."

Emperor Yong'an was happy, seeing that he was one step closer to going out to sea, he hugged Zhuo Ji: "I am very happy today."

Zhuo Ji: "The waiter cooks in the evening, cook some dishes for His Majesty, and serve wine."

"it is good."
