Chronicle of Emperor Jing

"Your Majesty is messing around, are you messing around with me?" Shen Mo naturally knew that although the young man in front of him was just a small third-class guard, he was very favored by the imperial court recently, and also had an inexplicable relationship with the emperor , if nothing unexpected happens, it will definitely be reused in a few years.

But he eats royal meals, works as a royal servant, and is in such a position, so he still has to say what should be said.Even if Wei Yan won the favor in front of the imperial court, what happened last night and the matter of the emperor going out of the palace in subdued tonight, if someone with a heart takes advantage of it to play on him, discipline him to death without a place to die.

"In the future, don't act so rashly. Don't do what your majesty says. You should persuade when you need to persuade, and insist when you should insist. I will reply to your majesty's will. If you have nothing to do today, go home first." go."

"Thank you, Commander. But Your Majesty..." Of course, he persuaded the emperor, but the emperor must be willing to listen to his advice.It is good to be able to go home now, but when the emperor settles accounts with him after autumn, he will still be unable to eat.

"Don't worry, I will talk to His Majesty, you can go." Shen Mo waved his hand and told him to leave quickly.

Wei Yan is so ignorant of how he behaves, how could he be the emperor's opponent, no wonder he will be crushed to death by the emperor, he can be bullied as much as he wants.

Going out of the palace in micro-services to have fun with the people?Thinking of the emperor's whim, Shen Mo's head started to hurt again.

In the imperial study, Emperor Jing was listening to a report on the details of Wei Yan summoned by the Queen Mother last night.

After several investigations in his palace, it is still inevitable that there are people from the queen mother, and naturally there are people from him in the queen mother's palace.Even if you can't hear the specific conversation, you can still hear some of the wind.

"The trip to Youzhou..." After listening to the report of the dark guard, Emperor Jing pondered for a long time.

He always felt that the empress dowager had other intentions in ordering Wei Yan to go to Youzhou to proclaim the decree and imprison him, but he couldn't find a clue after thinking about it.

That day, when he first heard the Empress Dowager mentioned this matter, he thought that the Empress Dowager wanted to use this topic to beat him and remind him to be careful in his actions.Later, he felt that the queen mother wanted him to feel that the Wei family and Wei Yan belonged to the queen mother.If the Wei family really belonged to the Empress Dowager, he might have to throw away Wei Yan.

Now, he feels that it's not just that, his mother has always been a master of taking one step, watching three moves, counting ten moves, never leaving an idle piece on the chessboard, and she may have other intentions when she casually dropped this piece.

Youzhou?

There was a sudden movement in his heart, and his brows frowned.

Perhaps, Wei Yan shouldn't be allowed to go to Youzhou at all?There is still time for a substitution.After thinking for a moment, Emperor Jing suddenly had this idea in his mind, and immediately shook his head with a wry smile.

Wei Yan is probably looking forward to this trip to Youzhou more than anyone else, and if he is really replaced without any reason, it will probably take a lot of effort to appease him.Forget it, the soldiers came to cover the water and the earth, and when the queen mother's intentions appeared, he would naturally protect him.

When Emperor Jing was contemplating, he was reported that Shen Mo wanted to see him, and it sounded like Commander Shen was here to trouble him.Sure enough, as he expected, just after he said Xuan, before his expression changed, Shen Mo entered the imperial study.

"Your Majesty heard that His Majesty is going to go out of the palace in disguise tonight to have fun with the people?" Commander Shen respectfully greeted him, but what he said was a bit contradictory to his actions.

"I heard that there is a folk lantern festival during the Lantern Festival. I haven't had the chance to see it yet, and I really want to see it." Emperor Jing tried his best to make himself look younger by more than ten years in an instant, and his tone was full of uncontrollable longing for the excitement outside the palace.

"Your Majesty has a noble status, how can he be in danger?" Unfortunately, Commander Shen was not moved at all.

"The commander-in-chief is serious. Is there any danger in going to see the Lantern Festival? I will wear black silkworm clothes and promise to follow the guards not to act privately. Even if something happens, isn't there still the commander-in-chief?" Guaranteed , Showing weakness and passing a tall hat lightly, Emperor Jing believed that it was only a matter of time before Shen Dajun was settled.

In front of the Queen Mother, one must be a young and promising emperor, and in front of the Taifu, one must be respectful and polite. Occasionally showing weakness in front of the Grand Commander can achieve the goal faster. As for Wei Yan, of course it is used to bully.

"I don't dare to take this responsibility. If something happens to Your Majesty, I will die." Naturally, Shen Mo was not settled so quickly.

"If the commander-in-chief really disagrees, I will take no one and go out secretly." Showing weakness is not a threat, as long as the goal can be achieved, Emperor Jing doesn't care whether the means are despicable or not.

"Your Majesty..." Shen Mo and the emperor looked at each other for a moment, confirmed that the emperor would really do what he said, and sighed helplessly, "Your Majesty will make arrangements, and your majesty promises not to act privately?"

"I promise." Emperor Jing secretly laughed a few times in his heart before thinking of a question, "Where's Wei Yan?"

Asking him to pass the decree is not asking him to wander around. Now that the Lord has come, why has he disappeared?

"He has been driving for many days without taking a break, and he will be leaving for Youzhou in two days, and I decided to let him go home and get ready to go."

"This is my negligence. It's time for him to go back and prepare." Emperor Jing sincerely blamed himself for self-reflection, and the serious appearance really made Commander Shen nodded with satisfaction.

If there is no Wei Yan, this lantern will be a lot less fun to visit.Emperor Jing quietly winked at Gao Yong who was waiting outside, Gao Yong naturally understood what he meant and went out soon.

Some commander said that the emperor should give him some face, no matter how bad it is, by the time the emperor reacted, it would have been a long time.With this understanding, Wei Yan quickly left the palace and returned home.

In fact, Wei Yan's luggage was almost ready, but when the maids saw him coming back, they couldn't help but panic again.They reopened the packed suitcases and went through it from beginning to end, and even his mother joined in the chaos.

There is one box of crowns, shoes, socks and various accessories, one box of jackets and trousers, three boxes of jackets, cloaks and dresses, and another box of other small things. The maids are still chatting about it. Try to take this and that.

"Mother, the child has only been away for more than a month, and it's not like moving. How can you need so many things?" Wei Yan looked at the boxes all over the floor, and couldn't find a place to stand. Feeling dizzy, he persuaded them not to pack so many things. s things.

"Everything is inconvenient when you go out. Unlike at home, you have all kinds of utensils. Now you can naturally bring everything you can think of, so that you don't lose one or the other when you need to use it. The hand stove on the road is called a small one. The servants will add clothes for you in time, and they will be happy if you don’t open your mouth. Later, the servant who is going to go with you will be called in, and mother still has a few words to order.”

Wei Yan replied yes, and after thinking about it, he couldn't help but said, "Since when did the child become so delicate, you even have to bring a hand stove?"

"Youzhou is no better than the capital city. It's cold and damp, so the hand stove is naturally useful." Mrs. Liu thought he couldn't help walking around and had many opinions, so she was upset when she saw him, took her son's hand and led him to the Sit down at the table, straighten his clothes for him, and stuff a teacup into his hand, "Sit here and drink tea obediently, don't walk around to make trouble."

After settling her son down, the Liu family turned around and joined the ranks of finishing in full swing.

When Wei Yan finished his third cup of tea, the women in the house were finally satisfied after a flurry of raids, and began to check the list one by one to make sure that nothing was missed.

"Eight sets of middle clothes and trousers, eight sets of regular clothes, two sets of formal dresses, and four sets of cloaks..."

Standing in front of the opened suitcase, Mrs. Liu was listening to the maids reading the list, while rummaging through the clothes in the suitcase. When she found a set of middle clothes at the bottom, she slowly stopped her hands and paused for a moment before touching it again. go up.The top-quality soft clouds are smooth and comfortable to the touch, and the stitches on the jacket are fine and smooth. When you open the inner front and take a closer look, as she expected, the special patterns that only belong to the top grade are faintly visible.

She couldn't help but turn her head to look in the direction of her son. Her son was sitting there, drinking tea quietly, with a gentle and calm posture, without a trace of emotion on his face.

For a moment, Liu Shi only felt that her heart was in chaos. She took a breath, calmed down, read the rest of the things, signaled the maids to close the box, walked to her son, and asked him:

"Tonight is the Lantern Festival, do you still have to enter the palace later?"

"Need not……"

"Then mother asked the kitchen to add some of your favorite dishes."

"Well, there is also Lantern Festival."

"Don't worry, all kinds of Lantern Festival are ready, enough for you to eat."

The mother and son were talking, when suddenly someone came to report that someone from the palace delivered the emperor's oral order, ordering Wei Yan to enter the palace immediately.

A trace of worry flashed across Wei Yan's eyes, disappearing as soon as it appeared, no one noticed except Liu Shi who had been paying attention to his son's expression.

"Perhaps His Majesty has something to do for the child, and the child is not filial, and can't even accompany mother during the Lantern Festival..." Sure enough, it still doesn't work, even Commander Shen's words don't work, Wei Yan muttered that he didn't know how to apologize to his mother.

"Say something stupid, go quickly, business is important." Before his son finished speaking, Liu interrupted him, and motioned his son to go quickly with a smile, until Wei Yan's figure disappeared behind the door, Liu's face Only then did his smile freeze, and he asked people to find the housekeeper of the inner palace.

"What do you want the second lady to tell you?" Although the Liu family is small in this mansion, her status is not low. In addition, everyone in the mansion knows that Wei Yan has been favored by the imperial court recently, and his future is boundless. Naturally, the housekeeper of the inner mansion He didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately came to listen to her orders after hearing the summons.

"Are there some soft clouds in the silk brocade bestowed by the palace last time, have they been used up?"

"Yes, there are four of them, and they are still in the warehouse."

"When I packed my luggage today, I found that Mr. Qi didn't have enough clothes. Take out two pieces and cut some clothes and trousers for Mr. Qi."

"The eldest lady has already ordered that those few soft clouds will be cut into some sets of spring shirts for the young masters when the spring begins, this..." The housekeeper suddenly became embarrassed, the first lady and the second wife did not dare to offend any of them.The two ladies gave different orders, isn't this embarrassing?And it is too extravagant to use the soft clouds that Jinguan City only supplies to make the underwear and trousers?But she didn't dare to say this in front of the second lady.

"It's okay, I'll talk to Da Furen." Liu's tone was gentle, but there was an imposing force that didn't dare to say no.

Under the circumstances, the housekeeper of the inner palace could only respectfully go to open the warehouse to get the clothes cut.
