imprinted you in my heart

However, from the perspective of the imperial city, that is, the imperial palace, it is not bad. There are rules and regulations in everything. The spirit of the palace servants and guards is still considered spiritual, but this does not represent the entire country. Everyone who asked her to come said that It is an empire that is sunset, and it will definitely not be prosperous.

The year that Shi Yanchuan came from was the 38th year of Chengguang in the Hua Dynasty, and the end of spring in the 600th year of the Hengli calendar.

Five years later, Chengguang 43 years, Hengli 605 years of winter.

Winter in Fandu is always long overdue, and this year is the same. The first snow fell only after the new year. Overnight, the entire Fandu, whether it is the inner city, the palace, the outer city, or the suburbs, was all dressed in white. The silver dress, the white is dazzling.

In the past, the streets were bustling before dawn, but now only a few lights were turned on, and when I went out sleepily and saw that the snow was still falling, I closed the door and went back to sleep.

Shi Min, who has grown much taller, is not as free as they are. Just after Maozheng (6:00 in the morning), she was woken up by Ji Chun, and under the service of her and Xi Xia, she closed her eyes and finished washing and changing clothes.

Whether in modern times or here, the habit of staying in bed in winter is as usual.

Usually, it starts at 6:45 a.m., and it becomes natural after a long time. But since the imperial grandmother fell ill half a month ago, and had to visit her before class, she changed it to Maozhengqi, and it is still there now. Some are not used to it.

"Your Highness, the imperial sedan chair is ready." Before Shi Min opened his eyes, he heard Director Lu's familiar voice, and he saw that it was really her.

Director Lu, named Guanchu, in her 40s, is a short and fat auntie, with a smile on her face forever, and she is also the chief manager of her Changfu Palace.

"Go to the imperial grandmother's place" Shi Min said and walked out. As soon as she went out, the oncoming air-conditioning hit her face coldly, she frowned uncomfortably, and then quickly stepped into the sedan chair.

"Get up the sedan chair, Fengde Palace" Director Lu yelled with a smile on his face, and the team of 15 people moved as usual.

In addition to Chief Lu, there are Ji Chun and Xi Xia who are on duty today, two female palace servants, two male palace servants, four internal guards, and four male palace servants who carry sedan chairs. Left and right, until returning to the sleeping hall.

There are no maids and eunuchs here, only female and male palace servants. Young men and women over the age of 16 can enter the palace to become palace servants only after passing the preliminary examination and interview hosted by the Sixth Bureau of the Palace. Male palace servants will drink Hope Well when they enter the palace. Water, at the age of 60, you can choose to leave the palace, or stay in the palace.

As for the female palace attendant, counting from the date of entering the palace, she can choose to leave the palace after ten years, or continue to stay. Generally, those who choose to stay are internal officials who have passed the internal examination presided over by the Ministry of Rites.

Palace servants are roughly divided into coarse palace servants, general palace servants, senior palace servants, and internal officials who were born as palace servants and passed the internal examination conducted by the Ministry of Rites.

Those who do rough work such as carrying the sedan chair are rough palace servants, Jichun, Xixia and other four people take care of them as senior palace servants, and the others are general palace servants. Taels of 30 deniers, the annual salary of senior palace servants is 30 taels of 40 deniers, and internal officials receive salaries according to their specific grades.

These are just fixed salaries. During festivals or great events, the masters will reward them if they are in a good mood. Therefore, the recruitment of palace servants every five years is also a major event in Hua Dynasty after the imperial examination.

Shi Min has been here for more than five years, and I only saw him once from a distance. The competition was so fierce that it was the best thing to do now. In the month of recruitment, she and Xing Boen talked about it the most.

When the sedan chair arrived at Fengde Palace, the snow hadn't stopped yet, but a path had already been cleared by the palace servants, and a non-slip red carpet had been laid on the marble steps.

"Director Lu, you guys wait under the eaves." After Shi Min made arrangements, he stepped onto the stairs and walked up step by step.

As soon as he entered the hall, he saw the Queen Mother who was dozing on a chair. Shi Min bowed silently without disturbing him, and continued walking in. The smell of traditional Chinese medicine became stronger and stronger. After crossing the screen, he saw Grandma Huang sitting beside the bed. And the mother concubine who was standing next to Grandma Huang, her face was pale, and Grandma Huang's hair was half white, and she lost a lot of weight.

Seeing that the emperor's grandmother had her eyes closed, Shi Min whispered a greeting to the emperor's grandmother and concubine mother.

The worried Grandma Huang and the frowning Concubine Mu saw her coming, so they cheered up and waved for her to pass with a smile.

As soon as Shi Min approached, Zhao Huan got up and hugged her in his arms, "Your grandma just fell asleep, I asked the chief manager to prepare breakfast, eat more later, so that you will have strength for class", after a long time It took a while to let go.

Shi Min couldn't see Grandma Huang's expression, but Wen Yu, who was standing beside her, could see clearly. Although she was speaking, she closed her eyes and frowned from beginning to end, thinking of what the dean, envoy and imperial doctor of the Imperial Hospital said. Yes, but also closed his eyes helplessly.

At this moment, Shi Xuan, who lives in the Chang'an Palace a little farther away, also arrived. As soon as he saw the Queen Mother, he rushed towards him, startled Shi Xuan, and lost consciousness. He raised his hand and saw It was the little girl I liked, and then I let it go, and walked in with her in my arms.

When they got to the screen, they put Shi Mian down again, and pulled it instead. After entering inside, the two saluted each other in low voices. Shi Mian wanted to pretend not to see it, but he couldn't ignore it, so he had to bow to the Queen Mother again. present.

Grandma Huang was about to say something in a low voice, when Grandma Huang coughed suddenly. The coughing got worse and she couldn't stop at all. Needling and feeding pills, the imperial grandma and concubine mother who were originally closest quickly moved out of their positions.

After about a quarter of an hour, the imperial grandmother's cough stopped completely. After the dean, envoys, and imperial doctors of the imperial hospital saluted, they returned to their original positions without saying anything.

Grandma Huang and the others didn't ask, as if they had a tacit understanding with each other. Shi Min saw it and asked, but they always said that she had a cold and she didn't understand medical skills at all. I can only do it in a hurry.

The imperial grandmother fell asleep again without saying anything, "The imperial grandmother will definitely recover, and the imperial grandmother, the queen mother, and the imperial concubine must also take care of themselves," Shi Min comforted, breaking the silence in the hall at the right time.

"You're still a sensible grandson, don't worry, your imperial grandmother will definitely get better, hurry up and have breakfast, and don't be late for class later." Zhao Huan was very relieved to hear that.

Like the last half month, Shi Min had breakfast with Xiao-Ji, and Xiao-Ji, who has grown up a lot, is even more cheerful, and she seems to have endless chatter, but fortunately, she is not as attached to her as she was when she was a child.

After breakfast, the two bid farewell to the elders in the hall and then went to the Si Xuefang one after the other. Because of the large age difference between the two, they did not attend classes together, but the teachers were the same, teaching each other staggered.

Shi Zhi moved to Chang'an Palace when she was six years old, and the imperial grandmother also found four attendants for her, but like the original owner, she didn't seem to like studying very much, and she could hear the teacher's scolding from time to time in the opposite Shi Yandu.

"A rotten tree is hard to teach!" No, just less than two quarters of an hour later, a voice came from over there.

In the beginning, they would look over there, but now they can turn a blind eye.

"There are two types of abacus division: return division and business division. The return division uses formulas to calculate. There are nine return formulas, retreat business formulas and business nine formulas. We have learned the Shang nine formulas in the last class. Who can volunteer to recite them?" After Teacher Ke finished speaking, he looked expectantly at the students sitting below.

Shi Min probably remembered, because this one is not long, but she was willing to give this opportunity to someone who is good at it, so she didn't stand up.

After a while, when no one volunteered, Xing Boen stood up and replied: "If you see nothing except one, it's ninety-one; if you see two nothing, it's nine two; When you see nothing but five, you make ninety-five; when you see six things, you make ninety-six; when you see seven things, you make nine seven; when you see eight things, you make ninety-eight; when you see nine things, you make ninety-nine."

"Very correct, sit down" the teacher was very satisfied.

Both are taught by the same teacher, but the two facing schools have completely different atmospheres and learning situations.

For the next five days, Shi Min also went to Fengde Palace like today, where he had breakfast with Xiaoxi before going to class. He also witnessed that the health of the imperial grandmother was getting worse day by day. more anxious than ever.

It wasn't until the second class in the morning of the sixth day, when Director Lu suddenly knocked on the door anxiously and walked in, that she realized that the thing she didn't want to see might still happen, an upset that she had never had before Confusion spread.

"Your Highness, someone from Fengde Palace has sent a message, please hurry to see Your Majesty" Lu Guanchu saluted Shi Min, for the first time his face lost his smile, he knocked on the door anxiously and pushed it open and walked in.

"Since this is the case, then today's class will end here, and the get out of class will end." The emperor has ordered, how dare the teacher say no?

In the eyes of others, the imperial grandmother may be just the emperor with power over the world, but in her eyes, she is more of a grandmother and elders, a kind and kind grandmother who loves her very much and responds to her requests.

Will care about her studies, remember her favorite dishes and pastries, think of her first when there are good things, and find her the best teachers and best attendants, maybe all for the original owner, But it was she who benefited.

It also allowed her to quickly integrate into this strange and unfamiliar world.

Shi Min, who is not hard-hearted, shuddered when he thought of his guess, and walked out staggeringly. It was not until he was about to go out that he suddenly remembered something and turned around and said: "Born, you go home and rest first."

"Yes, Your Highness." Xing Boen and other six people saluted and agreed.

On the other side, after a while, Shi Zhu also received the message, but left without saying anything.

Shi Min received the message a little earlier, so she arrived earlier than Shi Zhi, but the Queen Mother was inside, so she stayed with Grandma Huang and Concubine Mu, looking at the tired faces of Grandma Huang and Concubine Mu, the bloodshot eyes, I am ashamed that for the past 20 days, she has done nothing except say hello in the morning.

As the saying goes, there is no mother who knows a daughter. Seeing the flash of guilt in Shi Min's eyes, Wen Yu guessed one or two, and comforted him: "Don't think too much, one generation is in charge of the other. It is me and your mother who take care of the emperor's grandmother." The responsibility of the king, you are still young, just pay your respects every day."

"Your mother and concubine are right. Your imperial grandmother is very happy to know that you come to pay her respects every day." Zhao Huan echoed, holding Shi Min's hand.

In the dormitory, Shi Xuan knelt in front of the bed, lowered his head, and listened carefully.

Shi Yan, who had returned to the light, was in good spirits, but his body was thinner than five days ago. The wrinkles on his face seemed to have increased overnight, and he could not see any rosy color.

"After I... leave, you must not be soft-hearted in killing Sikong Yu. With your... ability... it will be difficult to control, and it may become a disaster... remember!" Shi Yan lying on the bed had a weak voice, and looked at the only daughter beside the bed, impatiently. Helpless, he closed his eyes and shook his head, "Go."

"My child would like to follow the teachings of my mother." Shi Xuan bowed and retreated with some displeasure, thinking in her heart, "Since you asked me to do this, then I will do it the other way around!" '. ?
