"The sound of autumn sends a message to the wild geese, when is the time to return..."
Bang bang bang, someone was clapping, and Empress Xiao's autumn thoughts were suddenly knocked to pieces. What's down there... What's down there?
Queen Xiao was not upset, but looked helplessly at the person next to her who seemed to never know what sorrow was.
This is a small lakeside building south of Jinyang Palace. Next to it is the largest pond in Jinyang Palace, and it is running water. Fenshui is introduced from the west, and there is a canal leading to Jinshui from the south.
This is obviously an artificial lake, part of a major project during the Kaihuang period. In addition to solving the moat of Jinyang City, as well as some drinking water and transportation problems, it also adds a lot of beauty to Jinyang Palace.
Therefore, even though it has not been repaired for many years, and the embankment and surrounding buildings have collapsed, the lake is still clear and fresh, and its vitality has not diminished.
As one of the best views of Jinyang Palace, this lake also has an elegant name, Yuenv Lake.
It is said that when the lake was first formed, Emperor Wen and Emperor Wen held a banquet at the lakeside at night. Suddenly a girl appeared on the lake, dancing gracefully like a dream, and as the sky gradually became brighter, the girl on the lake jumped deep and ran towards the moon.
Therefore, this lake was named Yuenv Lake by Emperor Wen.
Of course, such legends are all modified and fabricated by literati. Like other legends, they are not meant to deceive anyone. Firstly, they are to compliment Emperor Wen's nobility. Secondly, they are telling everyone a more exciting story. If you make up
If it’s not exciting, no one will listen, right?
At this time, Empress Xiao was on the corridor of a hut by the lake, leaning on the railing and watching the water. The name of the hut was also very elegant, Liuxiang Xiaozhu. There was also a poem inscribed on the pillar next to the door, "The moon girl dances gracefully,
Even after the shadow has gone, the fragrance remains.”
Since living in Jinyang Palace, Empress Xiao likes to hang out here, because she feels that there is no other place in Jinyang Palace that can suit her like this place, which is peaceful and peaceful, but also contains elegance.
But at this time, the people around her were quite irritating. They were holding a very long fishing rod and kept swinging it. More than an hour passed, and they didn't even catch a small fish, but they still complained that there were too few fish here.
How brave she was in the pond in their house.
This must be none other than Li Chun, the sister of Han King Li Po.
The energetic girl, as usual, always made Empress Xiao and the maids laugh out loud. Finally, she was quiet for a while, but she was secretly thinking, wouldn't it be embarrassing if she didn't get a fat fish?
It would be nice if it was winter. I remember when my eldest brother led her to break the ice to get fish, those silly fish jumped up on their own without any effort at all.
If you can't catch them again, hum, why not stab a few fish with your sword... Make a fish soup. In addition to giving the queen a taste of our craftsmanship, it can also replenish the body of the big belly with red eyes at home.
Without her, who often accompanies her to play tricks or go out for a walk, her life is far less exciting than before. Others, even her teachers, now easily stop competing with her. Alas, as the elder brother said, the master always
It's as lonely as snow...
The Empress is quite nice, but she is too sentimental. If her elder brother were here, he would definitely tease her from time to time... In comparison, she is a much more "kind" girl.
At most, it was just a small interruption when the Queen was reciting those sour poems.
The current eldest lady of the Han Dynasty is a versatile person in both civil and military affairs. Even if she does not have Empress Xiao's talent and literary background, she will definitely not be in danger of playing the piano to others.
She knew that the Empress was homesick again, but she still laughed secretly in her heart. The Empress was the mother of the country, and the whole world once belonged to her. The home she wanted to go back to, was it Chang'an, Luoyang, or...
The original capital of the Liang Kingdom?
"You're causing trouble again. Alas, it's an impromptu work. Once it's broken, it can't be picked up again. It's a pity."
The soft voice, the gentle reproach... are simply irresistible, no matter whether it is a man or a woman...
"Your Majesty, you are homesick again? Qiu Si is already very sad. Why should you, your Majesty, look for trouble? You must know that people who are worried will always grow old faster. Your Majesty is so beautiful. If her hair turns gray due to worry, she would be really happy.
It's a pity... Big brother once said that since ancient times, beauties are like famous generals, and they are not allowed to grow old in the world. Your Majesty, you should be more careful."
Both brothers and sisters are actually used to being monsters. As soon as the words came out, Empress Xiao subconsciously touched her temples. She frowned slightly, somewhat worried that her hair would really turn gray.
At the same time, I was also blaming in my heart, that person is also young, how come he is like an old man, always talking nonsense with gray hair?
Thinking of this, Empress Xiao couldn't help but laugh at herself, "The King of Han is extremely talented and talented, and others are inferior... Don't return to the south of the Yangtze River until your hair turns gray... If my hair turns gray, won't I be able to return to my homeland?"
Unparalleled talent? Hearing this, Li Chunhao did not jump into the water. If her brother was a famous general, a sage, a wise king, etc., it would be very suitable, but when she thought about it, the queen actually thought that her eldest brother was a
Talented man, Li Chunke just couldn't accept it.
They have been together as brothers and sisters for so many years, so they naturally know everything about him. She is definitely not as good as her brother in other matters, and she has always been proud of it.
But there are two things she can proudly say: she is much better than her elder brother.
One is swordsmanship. As long as she holds a sword in her hand, her brother who can poke her in a duel has no power to fight back. The other is the matter of articles. Over the years, she has come from behind and left her brother far behind.
Even though her brother can always speak out words that are thought-provoking, in Li Chun's eyes, that is her talent. With just a few questions and answers, her brother can make excuses to escape in disgrace, and this is exactly the fun she works hard to discover.
one.
Thinking of his brother turning into a talented man, Li Chun couldn't help but giggle, and looked at the Queen as if he were a fool.
Of course, at her age, she couldn't understand what kind of mood and connotation it meant to say, "I won't return to Jiangnan until I grow old."
And it is indeed not her style to be sad for spring and sad for autumn.
Empress Xiao's eyes returned to the ripples of the water, and in her mind, if she could sing out the 480 temples of the Southern Dynasties, how many people in the mist and rain on the towers could be other than talented people?
In fact, no matter what kind of worries she had, life in Jinyang Palace had gradually stabilized, and foreign ministers would come to the palace from time to time.
Yang Gongren came, Cen Wenwen also came, not to mention He Chou, Chen Xiaoyi and other veterans. Especially after the eldest lady of the Han Dynasty came to the palace from time to time, the palace gate became even more lively.
The young people who wanted to court Huang were looking for ways to go to the palace to see her. Empress Xiao understood the changes in the past few months. The days of fear and fear were gone. The world-famous beauty who was the most beautiful woman in the world seemed to have won her favor again.
welcome and respect.
To Empress Xiao, these annoyances were nothing. She neither felt happy nor worried. She was just witnessing something like a bystander.
And the desire to explore secrets gradually faded away with the arrival of such a life. In fact, she was 100% sure at this time that there should be no blood connection between Han Wang Li Po and the girl in front of her. The relationship between them
It should be the feeling of friendship or the kindness of upbringing.
But what does this have to do with her? It doesn’t really matter whether the king of Han’s surname is Li or Yang. Let these secrets full of darkness and blood go with the wind...
But there is no airtight wall in the world. What she can notice can also be noticed by others. After all, the Yang family is not extinct.
When Li Po saw Yang Xu, he could feel something strange. How could the two Yang Gongren brothers be the same?
When Yang Gongren came to the palace to see her some time ago, he mentioned how Queen Wenwen was doing back then. Later, he accidentally mentioned Yang Liang, the King of Han Dynasty, which showed that he had doubts in his heart.
However, just as Brother Yang Gongren did not want to get too close to Empress Xiao, Empress Xiao also refused to have a heart-to-heart relationship with the Yang brothers. Time has changed, and everyone knows the result of their getting closer and will not go.
Do something stupid like that.
The people of the Yang family who suffered from the rebellion are no different from the previous royal families such as Chen State, Liang State, and Northern Qi. They will serve their new masters when they see no hope of restoring their country. If it lasts long enough,
Not to mention their descendants, even they themselves are willing to be subordinates and will no longer do anything wrong.
Therefore, this is destined to be just a mystery. No one will touch such a secret easily, because if you are not careful, your own blood will flow out.
"Ruan Ji wakes up rarely and spends many days intoxicated. How can a hundred years be enough to take advantage of happiness and sing long songs?"
Over there, Li Chun took back his fishing rod, knocked on the railing with his sword scabbard, and recited verses cheerfully. Although the verses smelled of alcohol, they were also good verses to persuade people to relax their minds.
Empress Xiao immediately moved away from the railing, fearing that this woman might break the railing with force. She could swim, but imagine that a phoenix entered the pond and came out like a chicken. Well, that's a beautiful scene, isn't it?
"Wang Wugong's masterpiece is unworldly and refined, yet still powerful. It is rare and rare..." Empress Xiao knew her good intentions and smiled as tenderly as water.
Li Chun was a little confused at that time, "How does the empress say Wang Jiugui compares to my brother?"
Empress Xiao couldn't help but laugh, nodded and commented, "They can all be handed down to the world... It's just that the King of Han left them, many of them are fragments, I'm afraid..."
Li Chun rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "I want to see the whole thing. It's easy, but you have to promise me one thing."
Being discovered as expected, Queen Xiao was not embarrassed and just said softly: "You say it."
Li Chun chuckled, and his cunning look was comparable to that of his elder brother, "My sister-in-law is going to the palace to see the empress in the near future, so that's all. But if it involves me, the empress must not agree to anything, okay?"
"
Empress Xiao suppressed her laughter, what else could happen? It’s time for men to get married and women to get married, and the eldest lady of the Han Dynasty is not too young...
