On this day, Yin had many things going on in the court, chaos broke out again in Huguang, the northwest border was uncertain, and several old ministers who had different political views and had never dealt with them took advantage of the opportunity to attack each other in the court, making the Jinluan Hall as noisy as a vegetable market .
Yin sat on the dragon chair, with no trace of fatigue on his face. He had actually scolded those veterans dozens of times in his heart. He looked at the pile of memorials and accounts on the dragon case, forcing himself to listen carefully to those few officials. Opinions of veterans.
He listened to what some people said, but what others said was full of nonsense and missed the point.
The old one is too hard, the young one is too tender, and cannot bear the burden, alas!
It is difficult for the imperial court to employ people;
After the court, Yin walked out of the Qianqing Gate and got on the sedan chair. Su Peisheng immediately wanted to put on a dragon-patterned cloak for him to keep out the cold, but Yin raised his hand to stop him: "I'm not so weak and can't help the wind!" After he finished speaking, he raised his head slightly. He squinted and glanced at the spring sun above the Forbidden City.
The distant spring is fluffy and warm.
Su Peisheng saw that his expression was much better than when he was in the palace, so he trotted next to the sedan chair: "Your Majesty, are you going back to Yangxin Hall or...?" Seeing that Yin didn't speak, he continued breathlessly: "Spring is here. I see how beautiful the scenery in the Imperial Garden is! Your Majesty, would you like to go and have a look?"
Yin paused and threw the book in his hand to Su Peisheng: "Jingyang Palace."
The dragon driver changed his route and meandered toward the east.
The eunuchs sweeping the road and the palace maids passing by saw the dragon approaching from a distance. They immediately put the tools in their hands beside them, knelt down one by one and knocked their heads on the green brick floor. Then, the palace maids and eunuchs from all over the place knelt down. They stood down and lined up under the dark wall of the Forbidden City. It wasn't until the emperor and his entourage walked past that they slowly got up.
Someone whispered: "Where is the emperor going?"
The eunuch Xiao Yoko didn't wait until the sedan chair had gone far. He was already watching the emperor's back. He looked in that direction and then quickly handed the broom to the little eunuch next to him: "I have a severe stomachache. I have to go and take care of it."
Xiao Yoko has been in the palace for many years. In addition, he served Hai Guiren before. He is very familiar with Jingyang Palace and the routes around Jingyang Palace. How many peach trees there are and how many apricot trees there are. Gao, where are some dog holes...
He knows it all.
Jingyang Palace and Concubine Ning's Yonghe Palace seem square and unrelated to each other. In fact, there are many paths between them, shaded by flowers and plants. These paths were walked by the servants' feet.
At this time, little Yoko ran quickly on the path, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he didn't bother to wipe it. When he arrived at the gate of Jingyang Palace, he happened to bump into Qixi coming out.
Qixi held a sewing basket in her arms and was about to walk outside when she suddenly saw a person emerging from the flowers and trees on the opposite side of the road. She was so frightened that she almost screamed. When she saw clearly that it was Xiao Yoko, she couldn't help but complain. : "If you don't take the main road, why don't you take a small road? I'm scared!".
Little Yoko didn't have time to explain to her, so he immediately stretched out his hand to hold her: "Sister Qixi, the emperor may come to see the concubine soon, so let Chang Zai make preparations quickly."
In the front hall of the main house in the west courtyard.
Ji Ling was wearing embroidered slippers that she designed and modified, sitting on a thick mat on the ground, with a charcoal brazier next to her. She took candied dates and put them in her mouth with one hand, and grabbed a chess piece with the other hand. , looking at the chessboard in front of him, undecided.
Bixue, Xiao Fenzi, and Xiao Dazi were sitting on their knees on the other three sides, watching eagerly, waiting for her to make a move.
The game they are playing is called "Lianzhu", which is actually backgammon.
Because Ji Ling really couldn't find any way to entertain himself, he forcibly grabbed the slaves in his house to play chess with him.
And her skills in playing Go were really poor, so she just started playing backgammon.
Anyway, Gobang was originally invented in ancient China, and the chess equipment of ancient Gobang was exactly the same as Go.
Xiao Fenzi and Xiao Dazi were both smart. After a few lessons, they learned it immediately without spending much effort. However, Bixue was a little behind. It took them until the third game to understand the rules.
And backgammon for four people is even more interesting.
At this time, I heard Qixi running in. He opened the door curtain and hurriedly said that the emperor was coming to Jingyang Palace...
almost there!
Ji Ling got excited and got up.
A room full of slaves, all hunched over, lying on the ground collecting chess pieces, each one wishing he could have seven or eight hands.
Qixi almost burst into tears: Chang Zai's hair was still disheveled, and he was not allowed to comb it when he got up in the morning. He said it was so comfortable, and he didn't even have time to apply powder on his face. How could he look so holy!
You must know that Chang Zai was carefully made up and dressed up the first two times he went to bed.
When Yin arrived in front of Jingyang Palace, he naturally thought of the poor little boy who had slept with him a few days ago. He looked around and saw that the concubine was already smiling and walking quickly to pick him up.
Although Yinting wanted to call out Ji Changzai who had slept with him twice, but after all, there were so many slaves watching.
If he goes straight to the Ji family, it will be difficult for the concubine to behave as the head of Jingyang Palace.
The concubine has always been peaceful and sensible, never causing any trouble to him, and she is an old man who has been with him for many years. Considering this situation, he has to give her some face.
Yin raised his feet and strode into the main hall of Jingyang Palace. After taking a few sips of tea and listening to the concubine say a few words of greetings, he finally asked the concubine unabashedly: "Where does the Ji family live now?"
"It is said that Mr. Ji has come to see you."
The concubine's heart sank, it turns out that you are doing it for her, Your Majesty!
She was still smiling, without showing any jealousy or displeasure, and said softly: "The emperor has thought of going to the same place as the concubine! The concubine wanted to call sister Chang Zai to come over and see him quickly. The emperor has been there for a while.
Come to the harem, I'm afraid sister Chang Zai is thinking too much about the emperor!" After saying this, Yin smiled, seeming to be very cheerful and cheerful.
In the west courtyard, Qixi shook her hands and had just helped Ji Ling comb her hair. Before she could apply hair oil, she heard the eunuch outside saying that the emperor wanted Ji Ling to see the driver now.
Bixue was still half-kneeling on the ground, helping Ji Ling button up her flag uniform! Xiao Fenzi came in panting while holding her flowerpot-soled shoes.
Ji Ling seemed to have run out of time, picked up the tea on the table, quickly poured some water into his hand, then quickly patted it and applied it on his hair. He picked up a powder brush, dipped it full of powder, and applied it to his hair.
Just brush it hard on your face.
Then she grabbed a red lipstick, pulled out the cap and applied it on her lips as she walked outside.
She remembered that before time travel, if it was too late to put on makeup at work in the morning, she would apply lipstick while going out in a hurry. Red is the most whitening color. Even if the makeup is not carefully done, there is no need to worry with red lipstick.
