Consort Zhanzhao

Because she accidentally sold Zhan Weiwei, Zhao Bijia stayed in the palace for two days and did not go out, acting carelessly and carelessly.

So how did the ingot of silver get from her father to Mr. Bao, how was it given to Zhan Zhao by Mr. Bao, and finally, under Mr. Bao’s suggestion, the silver was regarded as an imperial treasure because it passed the emperor’s hands She didn't know that it was in the middle of Zhan Zhao's bedroom.

But it was the time when he was young and energetic, Zhao Bijia stayed in the palace for two days and couldn't be idle anymore.

"Go and see Taoist Lingyun." Zhao Bijia greeted Yang and An to leave the palace again, but as soon as they reached the door, they saw a group of three acquaintances.

Of course, Zhan Zhao is the most familiar among them, who is following Zhao Yunrang and Zhao Zongshi, the father and son.

The princess was a little unhappy at the moment. Speaking of it, she felt distressed and dared not order others. Why did she stay with this crooked pair.

After several people greeted each other, Zhao Yunrang smiled and said, "The princess is going out of the palace?"

At least on the surface, this uncle is quite amiable, especially since he is a few years older than Renzong, he is already an old man with gray hair, and his face is still round.

In short, he looks like a charitable old man who can tease children with candy. As for whether it will be reversed later... Zhao Bijia never planned to take this risk.

Zhao Bijia smiled and said: "Exactly, I had a relationship with Daoist Lingyun at the Summer Resort, and received his favor. It's been a few days since I returned to the capital, so I should pay a visit. Besides, the Taoist priest was It is time to congratulate you for being a national teacher."

The princess is different in front of some people...Yang and An have long been used to it, but Zhan Zhao has never seen Zhao Bijia so gentle and serious, as if...as if she was originally a lady.

Zhan Zhao suddenly shuddered, thinking that he had never seen it before, the last time he was forced into the room by the princess... the princess was like this.

Yang and An looked at him in surprise.

Zhao Zongshi laughed, "It's fate, my father and I are going to the Xuanming Sect."

The Xuanming sect is exactly that Taoist sect, and the new plaque was written by her father, but the two of them... what are they going to do?

"Cousin is going to have a fortune-telling?" Zhao Bijia asked a bit maliciously, the royal family... fortune-telling is not a good omen.

Zhao Yunrang laughed, "Your cousin is honest, don't play tricks on him."

Who knew that Zhan Zhao suddenly interrupted at this time, with a serious expression on his face: "It's getting late, it's better to leave early."

Zhao Yunrang nodded and said, "Since we are on the way, why don't we go together?"

Zhao Bijia glanced at Zhan Zhao from the corner of her eye, then nodded hesitantly.But they didn't take a carriage as Zhao Yunrang wanted, but everyone sat in their own. As for Zhan Zhao, Yang and An, of course they rode horses outside.

Not long after, I went to a slightly remote place in the suburbs. There is a mountain not far from here. It may be in line with the style of Taoist meditation or meditation. There is a Taoist temple at the foot of the mountain, and the newly built Xuanming sect is also here.

Yang He'an helped Zhao Bijia out of the carriage, and saw Zhan Zhao beside him standing motionless beside the carriage, not even handing him a hand.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Bijia was a little happy after watching it.

Several people walked together, Zhao Yunrang said with a smile: "Your Majesty allowed me to work in Zongzheng Temple. Although what I do is to manage the roster of clan relatives, the matter of monkhood is also managed by Zongzheng Temple. have a look."

Zhao Bijia nodded, and said politely: "Everyone says that the emperor's uncle is very strict with himself. In the past year in charge of Zongzheng Temple, even the number of people who committed crimes has decreased. It is time to watch more and take care of things. Woolen cloth."

Speaking of this, Zhao Yunrang was also very proud, but he still refused: "Don't dare. I'm old, and it's already a bit difficult to take care of these things."

After walking two steps, Zhao Bijia suddenly looked back at Zhan Zhao, as if he had just seen Zhan Zhao's face clearly, and asked, "I remember this seems to be Lord Bao's subordinate?"

Zhao Yunrang was old and was panting for breath, but Zhao Zongshi hurriedly said, "Exactly, His Majesty allowed us father and son to wander around the capital these two days, so he sent one of Lord Bao's guards to us."

If Zhao Bijia was thoughtful, she hummed, a little bit puzzled what her father meant?

It's possible that Zhan Zhao just came here, and I'm afraid he still can't recognize the situation in the capital, and he even made a joke of mistakenly identifying the princess with the prince... But her father probably doesn't know about this, even though it is today Zhao Bijia still felt that he was faking it.

Or... the last time she slipped the tongue, saying that Zhan Zhao accompanied her to eat at the night market, made her father wary?

After walking two steps, they arrived at the door of the Xuanming sect.

It is said that there is a plaque written by the emperor in this place, Ling Yun is still the national teacher, and he also has a certificate in his hand from the emperor to allow him to accept apprentices, it shouldn't be so deserted.

But now... the door is empty, the door is only half opened, and there is only a little Taoist boy cleaning up fallen leaves with a long broom inside, and there is nothing else... nothing else.

Several people frowned and looked at each other in disbelief. Zhao Bijia winked, and Yang and An went up and knocked on the door.

Although Dao Tong was only eleven or twelve years old, he had a good look. He could see that this group of people were either rich or noble, so he hurriedly put down his broom and bowed, "Are you here to find the master? Let me go in and report."

Although Zhao Bijia was puzzled, he still waited for the report of the little boy's entry and exit, and invited them into the side hall, and then served several glasses of water.

Not long after Ling Yun came in a hurry, and everyone saluted one by one, Zhao Bijia couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart, "Why are you so deserted?"

She still remembered that when Ling Yun rescued her, his words were full of Ling Yun's ambition, and even his name could be seen, "Ling Yun", whoever's Taoist priest would have such a Taoist title.

Ling Yun just smiled lightly, and said with a smile: "What the poor Taoist seeks is just a place to live, so that I can be born into the world and devote myself to cultivating the Tao."

On the one hand, Zhao Bijia believed it, but on the other hand, she felt that she might have misunderstood him.It's just a second thought... this person has a house number bestowed by the emperor himself, and a degree certificate, maybe... he wants to get a big one?

It's just that I feel like I'm a bit of an underdog?

Zhao Yunrang smiled. It is not difficult to see the faint suspicion and hostility in Zhao Bijia's words. He asked, "Where is Changxian Township?"

Zhao Bijia cheered up a little, and listened to Zhao Yunrang's question from his hometown, and kept asking about Ling Yun's Taoism, teacher and so on.

Not to mention Ling Yun, even the considerateness of the emperor's uncle makes people feel more and more wrong. Both father and son are just one step away from the throne. Is it true that there is no resentment at all?Thinking of this, Zhao Bijia glanced at Zhan Zhao, and said, "It's so boring inside, Uncle Huang is talking to the Taoist priest, come out with me." Then he told Yang He'an, "You stay here."

Several people looked at each other, Yang and An were the first to say yes, and the rest naturally had nothing to object to, but Zhao Bijia noticed the eyes of Zhao Yunrang and Zhao Zongshi, and knew that they were definitely thinking too much.

In fact, her intention was very simple, she just wanted to say a few more words before Zhan Zhao returned to her hometown, but the eyes of the two of them... must have misunderstood.

The princess left her own eunuch to monitor them, but called away the guards around them instead. Isn't this suspicious?

Seeing the more cautious smiles of the father and son, Zhao Bijia felt extremely happy, and left the Taoist temple in two steps.

The scenery on this side is still good, but it is near the foot of the mountain, autumn seems to come very fast, the breeze brings a bit of autumn bleakness, Zhao Bijia stepped on a few fallen leaves, and suddenly felt a little sad.

"When are you leaving?" Zhao Bijia asked, "I looked at the Kanyu map in my father's study, Changzhou is quite far away, can I come back in two months?" There was a bit of sadness in the words, and I didn't know He didn't hear it.

Zhan Zhao replied: "If you ride a horse, it's only a journey of more than ten days."

Zhao Bijia suddenly became happy, and always felt that I would come back early from this sentence, and said: "If you want me to say that you should leave early, the weather is cold and the road is icy and it is not easy to walk. It is said that people on the road are approaching the Chinese New Year. Too many, I'm afraid there is no place to stay in the hotel."

"But you don't have to worry about this. You are already a member of the Gongmen family. There is a post station to live in. Later, I will help you buy a first-class post ticket and keep you comfortable."

"Princess love, Zhan..." There was an extremely tiny pause in the middle, but Zhao Bijia was guilty and didn't hear it at all, "There is nothing to repay."

"Do you have any good horses? I do have a few horses. They all say they are thousand-mile horses, but they have never traveled far, and they are all raised in the racecourse... You can pick and choose later, it must be better than the horses in Kaifeng Mansion." Zhao Bijia hesitated for a moment, "Just pretend that you are helping me to test the horse. If this horse can't travel thousands of miles in a day, I will beat them later!"

Zhan Zhao replied again, "Thank you princess."

Zhao Bijia was walking ahead, and after saying a few words, she turned her head and looked back, only to see Zhan Zhao's magnanimous face, and felt a little regretful, so she decided not to make any excuses, and just said "you ride my horse", See how he answers.

It's just... why does he accept everything from everyone? Zhao Bijia couldn't help but want to persuade him not to be so serious.

"I heard that the salted fish and bacon over there are pretty good. Bring me some when you come back and treat it as a reward for riding a horse." After saying this, Zhao Bijia wanted to slap herself, and she agreed to stop making excuses!

Such a considerate princess... is really rare.

However, Zhan Zhao didn't seem to have anything else to say besides thanking the princess. Even Zhao Bijia's questions about his special products and other things were answered in a satisfactory manner, as if he didn't want to talk too much.

It made Zhao Bijia a little unhappy, thinking what are you pretending?In front of the public, what else can I do for you!

But then I thought about my great achievements... Zhao Bijia sighed, "It's cold, go back to the palace early."

This day's itinerary passed so smoothly, except that Ling Yun, a Taoist priest, was unpredictable, and Zhan Zhao didn't make any progress at all... But at night, Zhao Bijia saw Shang Fang's sword hanging in her room, and there was a new one. idea.

Early the next morning, she packed up and took her things to Kaifeng Mansion, almost blocking Zhan Zhao in the house.

"What's hiding in your room?" Zhao Bijia held Shang Fang's sword, and watched Zhan Zhao sideways coming out of the door with great curiosity, and then closed the door with lightning speed, but she didn't see anything.

Zhan Zhao said: "The house hasn't been tidied yet, so it's inconvenient to invite the princess in."

Although he looked serious, Zhao Bijia felt that she was a little nervous, so she smiled playfully and said meaningfully: "Don't worry."

Speaking of which, according to the standards of this time, Zhan Zhao... is considered an older unmarried young man in front of him. Think about what kind of things such a person can have in his house?

Zhao Bijia smiled so ambiguously that it almost made Zhan Zhao, who could not change his face when Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, feel a little timid.

"Please, princess." Zhan Zhao wanted to invite him to the living room ahead, but Zhao Bijia ignored him.

"I'm going to see the Eight Sage Kings today. I'm passing by, and I'll leave after a few words." Zhao Bijia handed over the Shangfang sword in his hand, "I'll take this for you."

Zhan Zhao hesitated a little.

"Shangfang Baojian!" Zhao Bijia solemnly emphasized: "If you go back to your hometown to visit your relatives, even if your family doesn't say anything, they are all looking forward to your return home." She looked like I was very experienced, "I have seen a lot, When they returned to their hometown, they all came to my father to ask for some calligraphy, fan, etc., and went back to offer it at home. This Shangfang sword will be brought to you, so that your family can feel at ease. How much do you bring it back? prestige."

After Zhao Bijia finished speaking, she was even moved, but she was a little ashamed of pretending to be ignorant... But she still looked at Zhan Zhao with a sincere face.

"This..." Zhan Zhao pondered for a moment, and for some reason, he still only said that sentence, "Thank you, Princess, for your kindness."

"Hold it! Don't be coy all the time." Zhao Bijia secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and took the opportunity to slap the sword on Zhan Zhao's chest and lightly touched it again.

Tsk tsk, strong is strong, but the clothes are a bit too much.

"And this post ticket!" After Zhao Bijia finished speaking, Yang Hean took out a stack of tickets and handed them to Zhan Zhao, but from Zhao Bijia's point of view, he was a bit bold in throwing the tickets, which was very touching.

The princess nodded in satisfaction, "I also handed over the horse to the stable of Kaifeng Mansion, don't forget to ride it when you leave." After finishing speaking, Zhao Bijia was quiet for a moment, "There is nothing more to explain, anyway, you should come back early, on the way Be careful, Lord Bao is waiting for you."

Seems a bit incoherent?Zhao Bijia was a little shy and lowered her head halfway.

Zhan Zhao pursed his lips, "Princess loves you, Zhan—" He pursed his lips tightly, and was about to say something, but he was cut off by Zhao Bijia.

"I don't want you to report anything." Zhao Bijia looked up at him quickly, "Go to see Niangniang Di." After speaking, he left quickly.

Yang He'an followed behind the princess, walked out two steps, then turned around and gave Zhan Zhao a hard look, with warnings in his eyes: Don't come up with any bad ideas!

Zhan Zhao went back to the house, took off the Juque sword that was originally pinned to his waist, and put it in the house properly, and looked at the Shangfang sword given to him by the princess, after thinking about it, he took the unified saber from Kaifeng Mansion and pinned it to the house. waist.

He was looking at the post ticket given by the princess when suddenly the door slammed and someone pushed in. Zhan Zhao reacted very quickly and immediately drew his sword out to meet the enemy, only to see that the people who came in were Yang He'an.

Yang and An Xing may have found some opportunity to sneak in here, and they were still breathing a little shortly. When they saw Zhan Zhao drawing his sword, they didn't say a single redundant sarcasm, "The post ticket can't be used, the princess has stamped His Majesty's jade seal on it, little seal, and the seal of the prince, and the seal of the princess."

It was only then that Zhan Zhao realized that it was just a post ticket that was as big as an inch, and it was so densely covered with seals that it was almost impossible to read the handwriting.

"The princess is so loving—"

"You dare to say nothing in return!" Yang Hean scolded angrily, turned around and flew out of the room.

Zhan Zhao looked at the Juque sword on the table and smiled helplessly.

You should take the sword back to the princess...

Yang and An quickly returned to the princess, Zhao Bijia looked at him and sneered, "Why did you go?"

Yang He'an hurriedly lowered his head, but he had never lied to the princess before. After thinking for a while, he whispered, "I took a look at the guard Zhan."

"Where did he keep the sword I gave him?"

Yang and An really didn't pay attention to this, it's just... Zhan Zhao said again that he can't let the princess know if he can't repay, otherwise he will be sullen again.

Yang Hean frowned and thought about it for a long time, only to remember that there was another knife on Zhan Zhao's waist. As for the sword...it was a sword that stabbed him, but whether it was Juque or Shangfang...Yang Hean recalled it for a long time, and said: "I When he entered the house, he thought I was a thief, he drew out his sword and wanted to stab me, the sword is extremely sharp, it must be Shang Fang's sword."

Zhao Bijia was very happy, and said with a smile: "Let's go! Go see Di Niangniang!"

To say that before Bao Zheng found Empress Dowager Li, Emperor Renzong always thought that Niangniang Di was his own mother, and this Niangniang Di was indeed very kind. He pulled Zhao Bijia and said that she had grown up. He also asked her what kind of young talents she likes.

Zhao Bijia naturally had someone in her heart, and she couldn't help but blush when she was asked so many times, Niangniang Di smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, just see who is tied back."

Zhao Bijia inexplicably felt that this sentence was a bit familiar... It really deserves to be a family...

"My lord, I haven't greeted my lord yet." Zhao Bijia hurriedly changed the subject.

"It's in the study." Di Niangniang smiled, and asked the maid to take her there.

Zhao Bijia really had a serious business today. After meeting the Baxian King, he expressed all his doubts about Taoist Lingyun, and said: "Although it's a bit unfounded, but... always take precautions before they happen. If he It's fine if he's a good person, if he has any evil intentions..."

The Baxian King smiled and said: "You are very worried, after all, you are a person who has registered with the emperor, you don't have to worry about this matter. I will try him slowly later."

Another matter was solved, and Zhao Bijia felt very relaxed, but this relaxation only lasted for two days.

"What! Zhan Zhao left? Just left so quietly?" Zhao Bijia widened her eyes and looked at Bao Zheng standing in front of her.

Bao Zheng still had no expression on his face, and replied: "The guards of Zhan set off at Chen Shi yesterday, and must have already left Kaifeng Mansion by now."

"The speed is quite fast." Zhao Bijia squinted her eyes and snorted, just looking at the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs who had already looked at him, and added, "Let's go now."

Such duplicity... Fortunately, standing in front of him was Mr. Bao who never made people feel embarrassed. Zhao Bijia heaved a sigh of relief and asked, "You granted him a few months' leave?"

"Guard Zhan was originally a member of the Jianghu. I thought he was new to the public school, and I was afraid that he was not used to it. I just ordered him to come back before the Chinese New Year."

Zhao Bijia can figure it out without breaking her fingers, it's only August, before Chinese New Year... Good job Mr. Bao!

But Lord Bao took a breath, and said again: "It's just that the guard Zhan is dedicated to serving the public, and he said he will return within two months."

Mr. Bao, you are doing well!

Zhao Bijia snorted coldly, turned her head and left.

Not far away, everyone in Kaifeng Mansion saw Bao Zheng come out with their sedan chairs, and Ma Han sighed, "Sure enough, Zhan Zhao is not here, even the princess doesn't have a good face for Master Bao..."

The three people who said this sentence were shot, Wang Chao couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder, no wonder your extra money is the least every year...

Besides, Zhao Bijia, after thinking about it, she didn't know which tendon was not right. A thought suddenly popped up in her mind, and it became stronger and stronger as time went by.

I want to go to the Zhanzhao House to have a look!

See which sword he took away!

The princess has always been a straightforward person, maybe all the indecision in this life has been wasted on Zhan Zhao, but this time Zhan Zhao is not here, let's check his house... Anyway, no one in Kaifeng Mansion dares to stop her, besides, there are still Yang and An are here.

Thinking of this, Zhao Bijia didn't hesitate anymore, took Yang and An and sneaked into the Kaifeng mansion during the early morning of the next day, and was afraid of attracting attention, so she specially changed into a men's clothing that was not conspicuous.

In the early days, there was no one in charge of the Kaifeng Mansion. Although Zhao Bijia was hiding behind Yang Hean, Yang Hean's faces... were also very distinctive, and everyone could remember them. Therefore...the princess was so careful all the way. Everyone tacitly reached the door of Zhan Zhao's house.

The door was unlocked, of course, but it opened with a slight push.

The room was cleaned cleanly, and the morning sun shone through, casting a few round spots of light on the ground.Zhao Bijia saw the altar facing the door at a glance, and the things on it... a bit weird.

A piece of silver and a stack of post tickets.

Needless to say, the post ticket was given by the princess, but the money... Zhao Bijia picked it up and looked at it carefully, and suddenly blushed.

There is a brand on the bottom of the silver, which is made by the royal family.

Isn't this the one that she gave to the boss when they went to the dim sum shop together that day?

Zhao Bijia hurriedly put the money down, took a few deep breaths, this is boring!This is so embarrassing.

Zhao Bijia hurriedly turned around, but in Zhan Zhao's room, his marks seemed to be branded everywhere, making the princess even more at a loss.

"Ju Que!" As soon as Zhao Bijia turned around, she saw that Ju Que was well placed on the display shelf in the bedroom. The sweetness in her heart was so turbulent, she was about to be drowned, okay?

She took two steps forward and held the sword in her hand, and said in a thousand accents, "So...he took Shang Fang away."

Yang He'an remembered the standard saber of Kaifeng Mansion that Zhan Zhao wore around his waist that day, and decided not to say anything.

Zhao Bijia blushed, and she didn't know what she was thinking while holding the sword. Yang and An silently stayed by the side without saying a word.

At this moment, there was another sound of footsteps at the door.

Although she knew it was impossible, Zhao Bijia hid the sword behind her back in a panic, in case it was Zhan Zhao who came back.

But... In a hurry, the sword was indeed hidden behind the back, but it was hidden horizontally, and the princess's small waist, both ends of the giant sword, could be seen, and the two big giant swords on it were also clearly exposed outside. .

At this time... who will it be?

Zhao Bijia stared at the door closely.

"Why is the Juque sword in your hands! Zhan Zhao!"
