He has not lived enough

Zhao Yu was quite touched at first, but he couldn't laugh or cry because of his call, and said with a smile: "It's okay, okay, Zhao Yu was quite moved, but he was confused by his call, and said with a smile: "It's okay, okay, The case has been clarified, isn't I fine? "

Speaking of which, he still has to thank Zhang Defu, if Zhao Yu had not met Zhou Guiyuan, now he asked Shen He to arrange Zhou Guiyuan to develop firearms in the suburbs, and if he succeeded, it would be worth the effort.

Of course, this matter is currently confidential, and Zhang Defu must never know about it.

Seeing that Su Shun was also standing there, he asked him to come over, and said to Zhang Defu: "If you really want to thank him, let him learn more from you in the future, this child has been serving you well these few days."

He said seriously again: "I can take good care of myself now, Ah Weng, you need to cultivate and take care of yourself."

Zhang Defu had already handed over to Su Shun in private, he knew that Zhao Yu was really thinking about him, so he was very grateful, and seeing that Su Shun was indeed a good seedling, he agreed again and again.

Su Shun also came forward to pay him respects and called "Master" with great winking. Zhang Defu was also a little more satisfied with the child, and nodded to accept this apprentice.

He has been taken care of in prison these days and has not suffered much. He eats good food and uses new ones, but his body is still cold, and his bones are sore. Zhang Defu also realizes that he is really old.

He entered the palace when he was less than ten years old, and now it's almost 50 years. He watched the little emperor grow up all the way. To put it bluntly, Zhang Defu saw him as his own child.

Now the emperor has loyal ministers and good generals to assist him, and he can stand alone. Even if he goes to see the first emperor someday, he will have the face to confess.

After Zhao Yu washed up and had breakfast, someone from Fukang Palace came to invite her, and Zhao Yu went out without delay.

After all, Zhang Defu was old, and although he hadn't suffered for a few days in prison, he caught some wind and cold. Zhao Yu asked him to go back to the house outside the palace to raise him, and gave him tonics to let him rest in peace. I only took Su Shun with me.

A group of people arrived outside the Fukang Palace, but they saw Shen He standing outside the palace, accompanied by an attendant.

Different from the neat dress with narrow sleeves and narrow body in the past, today he is wearing a sapphire shirt with wide sleeves and wide body, with a leather belt around the waist, which adds a bit of elegance and elegance.

"Ayu!" Shen He saw Zhao Yu from a long distance away, and was about to come from there with big strides, and the followers behind him also hurriedly chased after him, but after walking two steps, he was bound by his clothes and had to stop , holding his sleeves and beckoning to Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu was amused by him, and the entanglements from last night disappeared in an instant when she saw Shen He.

It was still Shen He who made Zhao Yu feel at ease and trust him.

Zhao Yu quickly walked a few steps over to look at him from head to toe, and said with a smile, "Cousin is dressed like a nobleman of a noble family today, but he can only stand still, and his secrets will be revealed when he moves."

Shen He looked helpless: "My mother came to my room as soon as I got up in the morning, and brought a group of people to give me a lot of trouble..."

He pointed to the extra-smooth hair: "Ayu, you don't know, the woman who combed her hair has stronger hands than mine, and I still feel that the corners of my eyes are being strangled."

Zhao Yu took a look at his forehead, which was indeed a little brighter than usual, and the hair roots were tightly hung up, which made people feel nervous.

Shen He continued to rub his forehead and complained: "I don't know why my mother is so determined to torment me. In the past, she was so obsessed with the palace banquet during the Chinese New Year. Today, she is so anxious that she wants to enter the palace. I let them go first. See you, aunt, I'll wait for you here."

Zhao Yu naturally knew why Shen's mother was interested. He was in a complicated mood and was about to say something, but he heard someone talking behind him. It turned out that Madam Du came out in person.

"The empress and the Duke have been waiting for you for a long time, so your brothers are talking here, go in quickly."

Mother Du smiled and bowed, "The flower banquet is ready, and all the guests are here, just waiting for the Lord to pass."

Shen He naturally didn't understand the meaning of these words, so Zhao Yu could only smile and said, "It's because I'm late, I kept my mother waiting for a long time."

Madam Du smiled and nodded, leading them in.

Zhao Yu whispered to Shen He while walking: "If you hear something and don't like it today, just deal with it casually. I will help you solve it in private. Don't be stubborn at the flower banquet."

Shen He paused, his expression changed a little as if he had thought of something, and he responded in a low voice: "Okay."

After stepping into the palace gate, Zhao Yu's eyes brightened. From the road to the palace gate, there were three layers of carved colorful railings on the left and right. Don't pick out the peonies that are in good shape, they are all top grades such as Zhaodianhong and Yuyihuang. Zhao Yu roughly estimated that there are more than a thousand peonies needed to walk this way, and they are very graceful and luxurious.

Walking all the way forward, hundreds of jade hydrangeas are used to form a screen. Although it is not as gorgeous as peonies, it is also lively and prosperous.

This is not just a flower stand by the side of the road. On the carved beam windows farther away, there are also bottles made of Xiangfei bamboo tubes, in which thousands of peonies are dotted in clusters, which is dizzying for the eyes.

As for the courtyard, there are four large dendrobiums pasted between silver foils, among which hundreds of flowers are planted. Looking at the flowers, they are indescribably plump and gorgeous.

Zhao Yu was thinking about other things at first, but he couldn't help admiring a few times when he saw the beautiful scenery. Before he came, the courtyard was covered with curtains, but today he can really see the magnificent scenery.

Madam Du also introduced before: "This year's flowers are blooming very well, but it's a pity that the time is too short, but if you arrange flowers like this, you can burn the broken branches with fire and then soak them in a vase filled with water. It can be kept for several days, and when some are withered, cut off the rotten branches and put them in the water, and they will be as beautiful as new again."

Flower viewing banquets were popular in the Jin Dynasty, both among the people and in the palace, and Madam Du also learned a lot from Queen Mother Shen.

Zhao Yu nodded and said: "I haven't seen such a grand scene in several years, and the empress has taken care of it this year."

After talking about the few people who had arrived in front of the hall, Shen He was still absent-minded and his expression was not very good. Zhao Yu pulled his sleeve before Shen He curled his mouth and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, Ayu, I know what I know."

Nodding slightly soothingly, Zhao Yu and Shen He entered the hall one after the other.

The inside of the hall was also decorated with various flower arrangements, which was more noble and elegant than the bustle and luxury outside the hall. The few potted flowers placed in the most conspicuous places on the stage were sent by Zhao Yu.

When Zhao Yu entered, Empress Dowager Shen was chatting and joking with others. After hearing the announcement, everyone quickly stood up and saluted, and said in unison: "Your Majesty, Wanan!"

Zhao Yu glanced at everyone in the hall. This time, the Empress Dowager Shen invited all relatives, besides Zhen Guogong and his wife, the widow of the former crown prince and two little princesses, as well as Zhao Yu's two married imperial sisters and son-in-law. Even Zhao Ke, who hadn't shown up for a long time, came. He winked when he saw Zhao Yu, and the concubine Shi Zi followed beside him was dignified.

In addition to these relatives, a few fifteen or sixteen-year-old ladies are a little farther away. They have taken good care of their bodies, and they all look pretty and charming. They were a little cautious when they saw Zhao Yu and Shen He coming in. After seeing their faces, they were even more shy and timid, and followed everyone to salute.

Zhao Yu glanced at Shen He and saw that he looked fine, so he was relieved. He nodded to everyone and said with a smile, "It's all from my family, don't be too polite, let's be flat."

Everyone thanked her, and Zhao Yu took two steps forward to pay respects to Empress Dowager Shen: "I met my cousin at the gate of the palace, and I said a few more words about the reason, but it was too late, and my mother waited for a long time."

Empress Dowager Shen patted her side and asked him and Shen He to come and sit, and then smiled at Shen He's parents: "The two brothers have been inseparable since childhood, and there is always something to talk about when they meet."

Shen's mother is a cheerful woman in her forties. She looked at her son teasingly: "Isn't it? I still remember that when they were young, they both played and slept together at night. Once, His Majesty and Ayu quarreled at night. Let him stay in the palace, and he will cry all night when he was wronged."

Everyone in the room laughed, and Shen He shyly called out in embarrassment: "Mother—"

He glanced at Zhao Yu in embarrassment, and saw that he was also looking at him teasingly, so he scratched his head and smiled foolishly.

Empress Dowager Shen was naturally happy to see their brothers getting close, she held their hands together: "Brothers and sisters should be close to each other."

She looked around the crowd in the hall with a smile, and sighed: "Thinking about it, we haven't gathered together like this for many years. Today, we are all from our own family, so there is no need to talk about so many etiquettes. Let's have a good talk and enjoy it." Once you enjoy the flowers, you can live up to the spring scenery.”

Zhao Yu said: "Originally, Erchen asked them to find a few pots of famous flowers to please the queen mother, but when I went to see the queen mother, the few things my son gave me were not on the table."

"That's right..." Princess Ronghua, Zhao Yu's eldest sister, continued Zhao Yu's words, "Today, as soon as I entered the Fukang Palace, I was dazzled by the beautiful scenery in the courtyard. I haven't seen it like this for many years. It's a grand scene, and the empress really took care of it."

Princess Ronghua is the second child of the late emperor, her biological mother is no longer there, and she was quite close to Empress Dowager Shen before she got married, Empress Dowager Shen smiled and nodded when she heard her words.

Princess Rongchang next to her also showed a smile on her face: "Yes, since His Majesty took the throne, we have been busy with state affairs, and our relatives have less time to get together. My heart is really empty, and it should be done today. Let's get together lively and lively."

Zhao Yu secretly rolled his eyes, the most indispensable thing in the palace is the actor and queen.

This Princess Rongchang has been competitive since she was a child, and she often bullied the original owner. Later, after the prince died unexpectedly, she not only disrespected the Queen Mother Shen, but also rushed to curry favor with the other two princes. Unexpectedly, she was the one who succeeded to the throne the most. Zhao Yu who is not on.

If you don't know what happened to her in the past, you will really feel how close she is to Queen Mother Shen and Zhao Yu.

Empress Dowager Shen couldn't bear to watch her act, so she responded lightly and stopped talking, and called those little ladies over again.

"Originally, I just wanted to invite some of my relatives for this flower banquet. Later, I thought that it would not be interesting to only have old arms and legs like us, so I called you over..."

Empress Dowager Shen looked at those little ladies kindly, "As the Ai family gets older, they are more and more willing to see these young children together, so that people will feel energetic when they look at them."
