Love Like The Galaxy.

Chapter 142

On the fifth day after Huo Budo went to the border, the post-abolition matters were put on the agenda.

There was a strange tranquility in the court hall. All the important officials kept silent on the matter. Only the scripture masters in Taichung said two words for the queen, "virtuous, gentle, no fault", etc., but they opposed Xuan's mother and son There are also children who can read in the family. Those sutra teachers tended to provoke a sneer and more vehement reasons for their rebuttal.

When Cheng Yong came back to see the younger sister on the sickbed, Shao Shang couldn't help but ask: "Isn't there a minister who died for the queen and gave advice?"

Cheng Yong said: "I'll be your majesty's minister first, then the queen. If it's for the queen Disobeying Your Majesty, is it the way of being a minister?"

"After abolishing for no reason, Yu Li is at odds."

"There is a reason, the edict said that the queen is jealous."

Seeing the young girl's dejected appearance, Cheng Yong said softly: "For the sake of the army, for the tax, and for any kind of government, the ministers may fight, but for an empress who has not seen it a few times, they will not. The queens usually share weal and woe, or are rooted together like Huo Pingjun, and the courtiers argue with the king over whether or not to abolish the queen, mostly because Xiangzhuang dances swords for Duke Pei—in short, it will never be for the queen herself."

Less businessmen no longer speak.

The days of recuperation were calm and uninteresting. Mrs. Sang didn't talk about the past with Shaoshang, but only dragged her to play chess and tunes, and from time to time she talked about the interesting stories of Cheng Zhi's appointment. Mrs. Xiao wanted Mrs. Sang to persuade her daughter more, but Mrs. Sang said, "Yiyou understands everything in her heart, but her heart is stubborn, so you can turn it around when you can say it. Sis, don't worry, let the curling up slow down, after two years I have seen everything."

But the night before the departure, Mrs. Sang specially helped Shao Shang down the corridor: "You are much better than me. When I was young, the world was in chaos and wars were everywhere. Yesterday, the little sister who joked about drinking alcohol, how many In the future, I heard that the whole family was attacked by bandits; last month, I had an appointment to hand over a handkerchief to enjoy flowers, and this month I ran away without knowing where to go... I know you have resentment in your heart, but you go out and have a look. Look at this starry sky, this heaven and earth, There are so many difficult things in this world, and you and I are already lucky people."

Shao Shang was propped up on the corridor, looking at the lush and fragrant courtyard, breathing the vibrant spring air, he had made a decision in his heart, and he continued to exercise every day thereafter.

Because of the chaos in the imperial court after the abolition, Yuan Shen no longer had the time to come four times a day, but he still came every day; for some reason, Yuan Shen was extremely silent this time, often sitting across a screen with Shao Shang for a long time. , and then went back quietly.

On the third day after Sang's departure, the imperial edicts for the abolition of the queen and the edicts for the establishment of the new ones were promulgated one day after the other. Unsurprisingly, the emperor forbade the ministers to celebrate the new empress. At the same time, he also favored the placement of the abolished queen. .

First of all, the rest of the princes were appointed as kings, and the second prince was the king of Huai'an, and then the deposed queen was changed to be the queen dowager of Huai'an, who moved to the Yong'an Palace in the northeast of the North Palace to continue to enjoy the title of the queen, and used it in order to call the queen dowager of Huai'an. Du Kuanshu, also demarcated an extra county for the second prince's fief to support the empress dowager.

At the same time, the emperor wanted to reward the Xuan family. Empress Dowager Xuan's younger brother, Marquis Xuan, had no military exploits, but the emperor, in the face of the opposition of the ministers, promoted him from the Marquis of Guannei to the rank of marquis, and increased the feudal state. Even the uncle of Empress Dowager Xuan, because his son died early, the emperor specially made his son-in-law Enze a marquis.

For a time, Xuan's family was cooking oil on fire.

On the second day when Shao Shang was able to move freely, he sent someone to the Third Prince's Mansion to deliver a letter. He prepared a pocket of money for the messenger to prepare for the concierge. Who knew that the Third Prince was very strict, and the messenger filled the pocket with money. brought back.

Shao Shang sighed, and for the first time thought it would be good to change the prince.

Originally, she thought she would set off at least the next day, but who knew that an hour later, the carriage of the third prince appeared at the gate of Cheng's residence, almost scaring the old steward into a stagger. He thought to himself that the suitors of his daughter-in-law were really overwhelmed, and the waves were rolling in one after another. His old man was a little overwhelmed.

When Mrs. Xiao heard the news, she hurriedly asked: "What are you doing here, the Third Highness, where are you going! You are not ready yet!"

"Why is my mother's face still so ugly? sick."

Shao Shang looked at Madam Xiao in amazement, even in the rough barracks, the beautiful middle-aged woman was sallow and haggard. Bone porridge, pig's trotter soup, and pigeon black fish..."

Qing Li supported Mrs. Xiao and bowed her head with a wry smile. Mrs. Xiao stomped her feet and said, "Please answer!"

Shao Shang asked Ah Li to tidy up his clothes, and smiled: " Don't worry, mother, I want to go to the palace. But the empress is abolished, and my tokens are useless, so I ask the third highness to lead me to see the empress."

Madam Xiao anxiously said: "I heard The gate of Yong'an Palace is closed, and the Queen Mother of Huai'an is nowhere to be seen. How can you get in! Besides, why don't you ask the prince to lead you into the palace?"

"Prince?" Shaoshang laughed, "Where can he go in? ." She groped around on the dressing table, and Cheng Cha, who was still kneeling quietly beside her, handed the earring to her hand.

The young businessman put on the two white jade earrings, and shook the bronze mirror: "That time, Huo Budo and I quarreled and hid in a palace to lose our temper. After a flower scoop, I stopped and didn't dare to go in - hum, if you want to enter Yongan Palace, you have to have the third prince." After the

rectification stopped, Shaoshang bowed to Madam Xiao goodbye, and the moment she stepped down the porch, she suddenly She paused, turned back to her body and said slowly, "Mum doesn't have to worry about me, I can live anywhere. But if you don't take good care of your body, Dad won't be able to spare me."

Then her gaze settled. On Cheng Cha, who was behind Mrs. Xiao, she said in a good voice, "Aunt Qing has to take care of Grandma, and the family is so trivial that I will trouble you."

Cheng Cha replied dumbly.

The rising sun in spring is always dazzling, and the girl in the soft warm light has an unreal feeling, like a fragile primrose that disappears when the wind blows. Seeing her putting on her head and shoes, just as she was about to walk out of the courtyard, Mrs. Xiao suddenly shouted in a trembling voice: "Curly!"

Shao Shang turned around and smiled: "I'll come when I go."

'I'll come when I go'? ! Mrs. Xiao was dizzy for a while, this was the third time she heard this sentence.

In a trance, she seemed to see that the day when she went to the front line ten years ago, the young and weak girl was held in her arms by Fu's mother, her face flushed with tears, and she cried out in a heart-wrenching voice, 'Mum, don't go away. "Father, don't go"... Cheng Shi couldn't bear it, he turned his head frequently, and even wanted to rush back and take his daughter away, anyway, Cheng's mother Ge Shi couldn't catch up - but he calmly stopped her husband, and the army was about to start. , and no sidelines are allowed.

Mrs. Xiao suddenly struggled and shouted loudly: "Don't let her go, come here, don't tell her to go... Stop her, come and stop her...!" She felt that she was going to lose her daughter, forever lost her. However, maybe she had lost her ten years ago, only to realize it now.

Why has she been so calm and rational in the past ten years, and why has she firmly maintained her good reputation! She should be like a fierce lioness, biting the throats of those who stole her children; or she should be like a shrew at the entrance of the village, dragging Ge Shi's hair around the house, who dares to say nothing The man she hit didn't have a tooth left!

——It's not that she can't take her daughter away, but she has too many scruples, and at this time, it's too late to say anything.

Mrs. Xiao gasped violently, her qi and blood surging, she suddenly felt a sweetness in her throat, a stench overflowed from her mouth, and then fell down.

...

Shao Shang was sitting in the chariot wearing a thick curtain cap, and the three emperors were riding beside him. He suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Why is your housekeeper looking at me so surprised?"

Shao Shang pulled the curtain tightly. Do something so that people on the street will not recognize him: "The country people haven't seen the world, so don't mind your Highness." The

third prince sneered: "Is this the case when Zisheng went to your house before..." As soon as the words came out

, he knew He made a slip of the tongue. In fact, he felt very strange in his heart - after the great sadness, shouldn't these two people have come to stay with each other through hardships and hardships?

Shao Shang held the railing of the car with one hand and said quietly: "Although Mr. Huo has a high and powerful position, he has always been gentle and courteous, even to his servants. Are you sick?"

The corner of the third prince's mouth crooked: "After receiving the imperial edict, she didn't pack anything, she only brought a few maids and entered the Yongan Palace, her diet gradually decreased, and she refused to see a doctor when she was ill. So not only did my mother not dare to Even the Changqiu Palace would not dare to live in the posthumous ceremony."

Shao Shang nodded: "I guess it is the same." The

third prince mocked: "The queen mother is not happy, and the father emperor keeps rewarding the Xuan clan. Huai'an After the Queen Mother is so sick, it is impossible to say that the royal father will move the entire treasury to the surname Xuan. Hmph, the royal father is too benevolent and ruthless like Emperor Gaozu or Emperor Wu, who would dare to say more ——This world always criticizes honest people!"

Shao Shang glanced at the third prince: "This stall, Your Highness, don't add fuel to the fire. Everyone has their own temperament. The Empress Dowager Xuan once said that she If you can't be the Queen of Yue, the Queen of Yue can't be him. The same is true of Your Majesty." The

third prince was silent for a moment, and then said: "Can you really persuade the Queen Mother of Huai'an? I heard that she explained everything to the father and emperor that day. Why can't we get over it now."

Shao Shang smiled and said, "Either Your Majesty, the princes and princesses, don't understand Empress Dowager Xuan's mind - in fact, she wants to be coaxed. It's just that after the death of Grandfather Xuan, she will continue There is no one to coax her, but she is asked to coax people repeatedly, widowed mother, young brother, sigh..." The

third prince appeared in front of the third prince with a dignified and dignified look on his face, full of suspicion.

"Xuanniangniang has never really endured hardship since she was a child. Outside, there are riots, and there is always someone on her head, so the long years have never worn away her true temperament. In the deepest part of Xuanniangniang's heart, she is always the same. The eldest daughter of the Xuan family, who is spoiled and cared for by a loving mother."

"But the situation is stronger than that of others, in the Gan'an Palace, she had to endure a group of foreign sisters, and after marrying His Majesty, she was ashamed of the Empress Yue, so she had to endure it. Also, because her family is lonely and weak, she needs to look like a sage who has a deep sense of justice and righteousness in the world. No matter what, she will pretend to be nothing if she is unhappy, and 'understand' your Majesty before he explains it. Action - now that she doesn't have to pretend anymore, she has to show some temper."

"I think you respect and love the queen very much." The third prince frowned.

Shaoshang said: "It is very respectful, but you have to tell the truth." The

third prince sighed: "There is no way, the Queen Mother of Huai'an does not allow anyone to enter Yong'an Palace, especially the Xuan family and several princes, You might as well persuade."

"Where's the eldest princess and the fifth princess?"

"The fifth sister is still locked up, the eldest princess..." The third prince's face turned cold, "The eldest sister first cried in front of the father, and then I've 'understood' my father's painstaking efforts, and now I'm taking turns with the concubine to persuade my father not to break my body - no wonder the lady Xuan is going to get sick, and I'll get sick too."

Shaoshang shook his head, the eldest princess and his wife really did it. standard.

While they were talking, the two came to the gate of Yongan Palace, and sure enough the gate was closed.

Shao Shangshuo glanced at the third prince, which meant 'the handsome guy is yours', the third prince gave her a sideways glance, took a deep breath, called out a group of strong guards, and carried out the siege pestle that the two of them hugged together. Then, with the shouting of one, two, three, the gate of Yong'an Palace was knocked open a few times.

Under the surprised eyes of everyone, Shao Shang carried his skirt and stepped in quickly. The third prince asked the guards to separate the palace maids who came forward to block her, and then said: "Using a siege pestle in the palace is also an ancient anecdote, so lonely. The crime is settled, you must reason with the Queen Mother!"

Shao Shang turned back and said, "Who said I should reason." The

third prince was rarely shocked.

"Don't worry, don't worry!" Shao Shang hurriedly said with a smile, "As long as I said it, the Third Highness is not only innocent, but also meritorious in front of His Majesty!

"

In fact, the Yongan Palace has just been built for less than two years. It is slightly smaller than the Changqiu Palace, but in terms of the beauty of the house and the bright windows and walls, it is still better. Unfortunately, the Empress Dowager Xuan's master and servants were not in the mood to clean up, and Shaoshang walked all the way and found that everything was empty. bleak.

The palace where the Empress Dowager Xuan lives now is arranged at random. Except for a bed in the middle, there is only a small stove in the corner of the room, and there is nothing else. Zhai Nushou stood beside the stove in a daze, and when he saw Shaoshang coming, he hurried over to report.

After less than a month of separation, the Queen Mother Xuan's original black and shiny blue silk turned white, and she was full of old and decadent aura. At this moment, she was lying on her side in the quilt, her back to Shaoshang, and she said nothing.

Shao Shang stretched his neck and looked at it a few times, then knelt down to the side of the couch, Zhai Ru weeping: "You better go back, I have persuaded everything, and the empress can't hear anything."

Shao Shang smiled at Zhai Ru, Without any hesitation, he said: "Niangniang, there is an interesting thing, I will tell Niangniang to hear it."

Zhai Yu was stunned for a moment.

"Today, the third prince brought me into the palace. After he read my handwriting, he asked me in amazement, 'How can I have the same handwriting as Zisheng's? Haha, this person is so cunning." The

Queen Mother Xuan moved slightly.

"When I was young, people always called me a child that my parents abandoned. I thought at that time, when I grow up, this kind of thing will never happen again." Moisture slowly appeared in Shao Shang's eyes. .

"If I want something, I will find a way by myself - the old man has given wisdom and strength, but some idiots are lazy and refuse to use it. Then, I met Huo Budo, and my wisdom and strength gradually disappeared. , became an ordinary idiot. Then, when I was least prepared, he abandoned me." The

Queen Mother Xuan turned her face slightly.

"I am determined to forget Huo Buxuan, but when I open my eyes in the morning, I will think of him telling me not to be fasting, and when I go out, I will think of the way he drove to pick me up. Thinking of him. So I plan to lose all the things he has given me, and who knows that as soon as I lift the pen, there are traces of him again - in this case, I am afraid that I will not be able to marry anyone."

"I don't want to stay at home and suffer. Look at the sympathetic and worried eyes of my parents' siblings! Empress, please help me!" Shao Shang's tears fell, wetting the front of his clothes, and Zhai Ru also wept beside him.

The girl walked on her knees to the edge of the couch, clutching the quilt with her small hands, and pleading with a wailing voice: "Miss, I have nowhere to go, please save me, please save me! Give me a place to live and help me get through this place. Daokan, help me forget him! I can't open my eyes every day, whether he closes his eyes or him, I will die, I will really die! Empress, save me... Otherwise, how can I live..."

Zhai Li She also cried, "Niangniang!" The

Queen Mother Xuan finally sat up slowly, revealing a pale face full of tears.

...

Hearing the news that Yong'an Palace had summoned the doctor and food, the emperor stood up and was overjoyed. The Empress Yue also breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, the Empress felt a kind of lightness like being forgiven, and the two of them were finally able to sit down and eat together. Dinner is over.

When he learned that the third prince had smashed into the palace gate, the emperor wanted to beat his son, but after learning that he sent the young merchant into the Yongan Palace, he sighed and gave a Dendrobium Pearl instead. After eating and drinking, the emperor immediately ordered Cen Anzhi to spread the word: "Tell Shao Shang, if you want anything, just say it, and serve the Queen Mother of Huai'an well, I will remember her credit!

" Also wiped off the sweat.

Marquis Dayue and Marquis Yu left the palace together, and the two talked while walking. The Marquis of Dayue said: "Thank God, I've always been worried these few days, lest the Queen Mother of Huai'an have an emergency, and His Majesty and sister will not be able to live together again."

Marquis Yu said, "It's not for that, woman, Being abolished as a wife, there is always going to be a riot, but I didn't expect that the little girl of the Cheng family would break the game. Alas, the Xuan family is really not talented, and I don't know if it's to make a fuss or not. I thought that at such a gate, I could see Your Majesty and Empress Yue embarrassed. The Empress Dowager Xuan said that they were not allowed to enter the palace, and none of them would enter the palace!"

Dayue Hou was silent for a moment, and said: "I will go back and thank Cheng Xiaowei. , thank him for raising a good daughter."

"She is a good daughter, smart and wise, and courageous in encounters, so I plan to wait for the limelight to pass, and then go to Cheng Xiaowei to propose marriage. My twelve sons are exactly the same age as Cheng's. "Yuhou said.

Hou Dayue stopped abruptly: "You, you, you still wanted to marry your daughter to Zisheng!"

"So what?" Yu Hou smiled leisurely, "Marriage is a big relationship between people, and it can't be. Delay, if you don't succeed here, try there, even if you can't say Cheng's, it doesn't matter. Hasn't your aunt taught you this?"

Dayue Hou flicked his sleeves: "My mother is not like you! Oh, I don't know Zisheng. Where have you gone now?"

Yuhou Fushu smiled and said, "It's okay for Zisheng, wherever he goes, he can't be without a woman's admiration, but Cui You... The Hof people are outdated, and he can't be alone for the rest of his life. Take care of me. I have a widow who has never been a widow for two years and is less than thirty years old. I want to tell him, what do you think?"

The Marquis of Dayue rolled his eyes: "What is it, what is it, I think you should stop being an official in the court, hurry up and go. Just be an iceman!"

"What's wrong with being an iceman? A few years ago, I told General Han's younger son the sister of the second concubine. Now the young couple are in harmony and love, and they come to see me every year and festival. There are a lot of people complaining about being an official in the court!"

The Marquis of Dayue paced slowly and hesitated: "Hey, I heard a piece of news that Yuan Shen, Yuan Shanjian, who is next to His Majesty, runs to Cheng's house all day long. Have you heard?"

"I heard." Yuhou said.

"You!" Dayue Hou paused, "Don't say that Yuan Shen went to the Cheng family and his son to talk about scriptures, I don't believe it!"

"Of course not to the Cheng family and his son. What's the matter? Well."

"But isn't Yuan Shen engaged to Cai Yun's niece?"

"Brother, from Cheng's little girl, I understand a truth-cooked duck can fly, sure. The marriage I have given can be retired."

...

Mrs. Xiao lay on the couch and looked forward to it for a whole day. She didn't wait for her daughter, but only for a cold edict-calling Cheng's daughter as the imperial order of Yong'an Palace, enjoying Six hundred stone official ranks; plus a decree to seal the husband and the eldest son, and a lot of money and silk.

The guests who came to Hershey soon found that the Cheng and his wife were unusually silent. When asked, they only said that it was spring lack.

On this day, Cheng Cha finished the housework, turned away all the maids, and walked to the bookstore alone; after searching a few rooms, she saw Cheng Cheng looking for books on the bookshelf in a library in the back.

Cheng Cheng smiled and said, "Why are you here? You are going to get married next month, and you are not staying in the house to rest."

Cheng Cheng didn't answer, and sat across from Cheng Cheng's case: "Father, you last time Tell me you want to bring your mother back?"

Cheng Cheng was stunned: "Yes." He was a little embarrassed, "When I was studying in Bailu Mountain, your eldest father kept sending people things over, and your uncle came to visit. A few times. They said that your mother has already changed."

Cheng Hao said, "Did your father forget your mother's humiliation and abuse?"

Cheng Cheng sighed, lowered his head and said, "Oh, I'm not as good as your uncle and uncle, who is white and old. Lame, what kind of good woman can you continue? The people that your uncle looks down on, don't look down on me, and the uncle doesn't look down on me. Otherwise, you are greedy for the power of the Cheng family and have other reasons. Tu, why don't you bring your mother back..."

"I don't agree." Cheng Hao said, "I don't agree to bring your mother back. If your father doesn't go well, it's better to find a gentle and honest concubine to serve you first. Cheng Cheng opened his mouth wide: "

You, you..."

"Father knows that the aunt is sick."

"Of course he does!

But—" Cheng Cha said tearfully, "The uncle told the outside that my aunt was suffering from an old illness. But I know that my aunt fell ill because of her sadness—she regretted it. She regretted leaving her 10 years ago, regretted that she scolded him 10 years later, and regretted that the mother-daughter never had a day of harmony and joy that was blocked by the palace gate It 's gone."

Cheng Cheng said embarrassedly, "It's all my incompetence, I didn't control your mother back then."

"Father's temperament is like this, not to mention that the mother always moves out of the eldest mother, even the mother alone can't be said by the father." Cheng Cha Wipe away tears.

"But grandfather, is this fair? My uncle and aunt were pampered in the arms of my uncle and aunt. They have been treated like treasures for more than ten years, but curled up in the hands of grandma and treated them with contempt. They were rude and rude. When I first came to the capital, I had no I noticed, now I know how abhorrent my mother's actions are!" Cheng Cha clenched her fists.

"In the past ten years, the eldest aunt sent people back several times to pick up the curls, but they were all blocked by the grandmother's plan. I heard from the young palace that most of the generals guarding outside are married to each other. If the aunt can bring the curls, she If you can find a satisfactory husband-in-law like Sister Qiqi of Wanjia, then there is no such thing as Lou's surname Huo!" The girl who had always been docile and docile looked indignant.

Cheng Cheng stroked his forehead painfully: "I understand what you mean. Although Auntie has the heart to make things difficult for her concubine, she is a sloppy mother. If there is no Ge Shi who has been making suggestions, it will not be

the case in the future." My aunt wrote a letter to explain the whole story, no matter if my mother has changed or not, she can't come back to Cheng's house!" Cheng Cha sat upright, her body trembling slightly, "Why do evildoers get old and die peacefully? I've been soft-hearted to an innocent child! As long as I stay at Cheng's house for one day, she won't want to come back!"

Cheng Cheng heard something different: "What do you mean you're at Cheng's house for a day?"

Cheng Cha said, "I told my uncle, I don't like that person, and I don't want to marry him anyway. My uncle has already promised to help me break off the marriage."

"How could you do this!" Cheng Cheng stood up, his face flushed with anger, "Your uncle is here for this. Don't you know how much effort was spent on the marriage?! That family is honest and well-behaved, what are you dissatisfied with, you, you..."

"Because I can't go." Cheng Cha trembled and cried: "Damn Auntie is so sick that she seems to have been drained of her energy! Aunt Qing has to take care of her, who will be the housekeeper—I can't leave at this time!"

Cheng Cheng immersed himself in the book all day, not knowing why.

"Brother Da Cong has already been granted an official position, and he will go to Qingzhou to take office after he gets married. Newly married Yan'er, do you want Aunt Chae to stay and serve the eldest aunt?!" Cheng Cha desperately wiped her tears with her sleeves, her face was a mess, " Brother Er Cong went to Wan's house in succession, and after his marriage with Qiqi, he will follow Uncle Wan to take up the post - who else is left in the family?!"

Cheng Cheng stood stunned.

Cheng Cha took a long inhalation and calmed her breath: "Not only is my mother unworthy to come back to Cheng's house, but I also don't deserve to get married and live a good life! As long as Yayi doesn't settle down for a day, I will stay at Cheng's house. Father, don't say anything, just come back. Bailushan continues to study, with me at home, I will take a good look at home!"

Cheng Chengmu sat back and looked at his daughter, who seemed to have grown up overnight, both sad and proud, and at the same time inferior to his own powerlessness, only There was a deep sigh.

After the father and daughter left, the last row of bookshelves clattered, and two teenagers emerged from behind, it was Cheng Shaogong and Ban Jia.

A moment ago, Cheng Shaogong sneaked in the foreman Jia to find the book, and when he heard Cheng Cheng came in, he quickly hid behind, so as not to be harassed by the second uncle who loved books like his life, he could not climb out until this time.

Cheng Shao Gong slapped the dust on his body, and murmured: "Look at my destiny, I can always hear things that shouldn't be heard, now it's good, should I tell my parents or not... ...Hey, Ajia, what's wrong with you Ajia..."

Ban Jia stayed where he was, staring blankly at the door.

"What's the matter? What are you in a daze? Those are my second uncle and cousin, haven't you seen them?" Cheng Shaogong waved back and forth in front of him.

Ban Jia stood upright, with a dreamy look on his delicate face: "Young Gong, did you hear the lightning and thunder outside?"

What? ! ——Cheng Shaogong looked out the window, the sky was clear.

...

It was indeed clear skies outside, and the weather was good for several days in a row, so Shao Shang hurried to work—divided his troops into two groups, one with a large number of people cleaned up the Changqiu Palace, and one with a small number of people cleaned up the Yongan Palace.

Especially in Changqiu Palace, although it is necessary to take away the things that Empress Dowager Xuan is used to, it must not leave a mess to Empress Yue, unless you don't want to mess with it in the future. Therefore, the young merchants asked the maids and eunuchs to carry forward the spirit of 'not leaving a little garbage'. While taking away the utensils and furniture, the windows of the Changqiu Palace should be cleaned and tidy, neat but not rigid, concise but not empty, and convenient and more convenient. The queen moved in her belongings one by one.

Shao Shang was well aware of the fact that ten thousand nonsense is not as good as copper coins, so he directly took the Queen's private house money and offered a reward, so the palace maids and eunuchs who were decadent because of the decommissioning regained their spirits, and in just six or seven days, the two palaces were destroyed. Pack up properly.

The emperor appreciated it very much, so he asked Cen Anzhi to carry a box of money to reward the young merchant.

Empress Yue walked around Changqiu Palace with her arms crossed, expressing her satisfaction in a rare way: "I only thought she liked eating, playing, and articulate, but I didn't see her doing things so neatly." past.

Zhai Yu was still muttering 'showing off how rich she is,' and Shaoshang accepted the cash box without any burden.

In Yong'an Palace, only the main hall and the inner hall were tidy up. Shao Shang asked the Empress Dowager Xuan to settle down and recuperate first. At the same time, he asked the old uncle to set up another kitchen beside the side hall, to buy independently, and to have some permissions to enter and leave the palace.

Shao Shang looked around. In the next few years, she will set up a drawing room, a handicraft room, a textile room, a reading room in this palace... A vegetation will be opened at the back of the palace, and there will be lush flowers and leaves in spring and summer. Drink tea under the moon, taste fruits and vegetables, have a rich harvest in autumn and winter, boil soup and roast meat, and chat around the fireplace at night.

——This place will never become a desolate cold palace, she wants this place to exude a quiet and pleasant atmosphere.

"In the future, I will set rules. If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have failed, you will be punished. If there is another high point, you can leave... Now, close the main gate, and I must agree to go in and out in the future."

Huan Pei Ding Dong The girl in the palace dress stood upright in the main hall, her eyes were calm, and her voice was slow. As she issued orders one by one, the surrounding palace maids and eunuchs all obeyed.

Seeing the vermilion door slowly closing in front of her, Shao Shang suddenly felt a sharp pain in her heart, and she could hardly stand up due to the pain.

——It was also an early spring day with a clear sky. The high sky was as beautiful and open as a jasper, and my mother babbled in the carriage with a stern face, and answered the fourteen-year-old girl absentmindedly, "The city gate is closed again." ah'.

In fact, the girl didn't tell the truth. Before the vermilion gate was closed, between the golden brass nails, she saw the handsome and slender young man galloping back again, and the horse was standing on the hillside and looked into the gate.

She couldn't see his face at such a long distance, but she knew that he must be smiling at her. His smile was as gentle and clear as a stream flowing in spring, enough to make her remember it for a lifetime.

At that time, the girl was already engaged, but in the deepest part of her heart, she was still inexplicably happy.

When the past happened so unexpectedly, the young merchants who killed him were powerless to fight back.
