Bully

Yan Ke stretched out his hand, as if to wipe the petals off his cheeks for him, but his fingertips stopped there again, without moving for a long time.His fingers moved slightly, then retracted after a long while, still standing beside him and fanning him, as if nothing had happened.

"Where's the son?"

Xu Chengyu's voice came from under the pavilion, Ming Chuan was startled awake, rubbed his eyes and stood up, falling flowers fell from him.

"I'm asleep?"

"Just took a nap," Yan Ke said, "I don't have much time."

Ming Chuan nodded, looked at the glass cup and said, "This wine has quite a lot of stamina."

While speaking, Xu Chengyu came up from there, "I said where have you been? So you are hiding here."

Ming Chuan saw him and said, "I'm not hiding, it's obviously because your wine is stuck, take a break."

Xu Chengyu carried the empty wine jug and said, "Did you drink all of this jug of wine?"

"Yes."

Xu Chengyu's face was a little distressed.

Ming Chuan said: "Why do you have a pot of wine? There are as many wines as you want in the inner palace. If you want, I will allow you to choose it yourself."

Xu Chengyu glanced at him: "The wines in the palace, whether good or bad, are not my pot after all."

Ming Chuan didn't take it seriously, and said, "I've stayed with you long enough, and I'm going to the eldest princess's place later."

"Princess?" Xu Chengyu asked.

Ming Chuan said: "Today is Grain Grain Festival, Princess Jinghua held a banquet to worship the God of Flowers, speaking of which, it is in the royal courtyard next to your garden."

Xu Chengyu suddenly realized, and said: "Your Majesty, don't you know, my garden was originally a royal garden, and later it was given to the clan. The clan was convicted again, and the garden changed hands several times before it fell back into my hands."

Ming Chuan nodded and said, "No wonder the scenery here is so beautiful."

Xu Chengyu's face turned pale, Ming Chuan was about to step down from the pavilion when he suddenly turned around and asked, "Did you invite Zhang Xinyuan to this poetry meeting?"

"Naturally, he is a celebrity in front of His Majesty." Xu Chengyu teased.

Ming Chuan asked again: "Where is General Wei Ji Wei?"

Xu Chengyu frowned, "I also handed him an invitation, but he didn't reply, and he didn't come today. He probably doesn't have much interest in the poetry fair."

Mingchuan echoed casually: "I'm not interested in changing me."

Xu Chengyu sent Ming Chuan's master and servant away. The imperial courtyard is only separated from this garden by a wall, and the flowing water on both sides is still connected.Ming Chuan didn't say anything, and was welcomed into the other courtyard.

The party at the girl's house is not the same after all, the clothes are fragrant, and the laughter is endless.Every girl is dressed in brocade clothes and jewelry, all of them are talking and laughing, they are more charming than the flowers in this courtyard.

Jinghua walked down with a smile, and welcomed Mingchuan to the upper position. The girls at the table bowed gracefully to him.

Ming Chuan said: "I'm just here to have a look, each of you do your own thing, don't be restrained."

"Yes."

Jing Rong and Jing Hua were talking to Ming Chuan above.

Jinghua smiled and said: "Brother Huang, look at how well I managed this banquet."

Ming Chuan nodded, "It's more lively than the palace."

Jingrong covered her mouth and smiled, Jinghua said: "You only see the excitement?"

"Then what else to watch?"

Jinghua nodded to everyone, and said: "In a few months, these are all going to be drafted in the palace, and whoever is missing will be my future emperor's wife."

Ming Chuan forgot about this incident, choosing a concubine was just an angry remark from the national teacher in the past.Now that he decided to live a good life with the national teacher, these concubines and queens naturally couldn't have it.

Just as Ming Chuan was about to speak, a girl in a blue dress stood up and blessed her body with a thousand gestures, "Such a beautiful garden, my little girl wants to play a song for the eldest princess and His Majesty, I don't know if I can grant it." .”

Jinghua looked at Mingchuan and smiled, and said, "Sure."

Someone had already lifted the guqin up, and the woman sat in the middle and played a piece of "Yangchun Baixue".

Rong Shang also played this piece, in the Changwan Pavilion in the palace, where Rong Shang taught Ming Chuan how to play the piano.

There is a clump of roses beside the pavilion, and Ming Chuan often goes to pick the flowers after playing, bringing back the fragrance of roses all over his body.When he was tired from playing, he snuggled up next to Rong Shang, so both of them smelled like roses.

The light in Ming Chuan's eyes became softer, and the woman was secretly delighted in her heart, and when she retreated, her eyes were full of complacency.

Seeing this, the other girls followed suit one after another. This one performed a dance, that one composed a poem, and Ming Chuan had to evaluate it.Ming Chuan couldn't bear to be disturbed.

At this time, Rong Feng came over and said: "The national teacher has an order, ordering His Majesty to return to the palace immediately, and discuss important matters."

This order made Ming Chuan get away from here, he got up, said a few words to Jing Rong Jing Hua, and then quickly followed Rong Feng away.

After returning to Gong Mingchuan, he changed his clothes and came to the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Rong Shang sat on it, with booklets at hand.

"Master, I'm back!"

Rong Shang raised his eyelids and glanced at him, his voice was cool, "Is the girl's piano music nice?"

Ming Chuan was taken aback, and approached with a smile, "Of course it sounds good, but it's not as good as the music played by the national teacher in the evening pavilion. If I study hard, maybe I can play it better than her."

Rong Shang glanced at him and said, "Now you know how to study hard?"

Ming Chuan said with a smile: "If you ask me to learn now, I probably don't want to learn. It's just that you have become busier in recent years, and you have less time to play the piano."

Rong Shang paused, put down the ink pen in his hand, and pulled Ming Chuan into his arms, "Are you complaining to me about not being with you?"

Ming Chuan grabbed the corner of Rong Shang's clothes, and said: "In the early years, when I was young, I never felt that the palace was boring. At that time, we spent most of the day together."

Rong Shang sneered, "Later you saw me like a mouse seeing a cat, and now you complain that I don't accompany you. Your Majesty, Your Majesty, your mind is really harder to guess than the sky in June."

Ming Chuan was speechless to refute, Rong Shang smiled, patted his shoulder and said softly: "Go and play."

Ming Chuan got off him and went with Yan Ke.

Jinghua was getting married soon, Jingrong specially invited her to live in the palace for a few days, even Wei Nanqing was brought into the palace.

In the evening, Ming Chuan and Rong Shang talked about it, Rong Shang didn't like Xiaotuanzi very much, and his eyes were full of disgust.

"Xiaobai Tuanzi is very good-natured, he doesn't make any noise, and he can do whatever he asks. Besides, he's also good-looking, with eyebrows and eyes like Jingrong, and a little bit like Wei Ji. When he grows up, he must be a handsome man."

Rong Shang suddenly raised his eyes to look at Ming Chuan, and Ming Chuan said: "The Wei family seems to be good-looking, you look at Wei Nanqing and Wei Ji, I guess the son of Wei Qi is not bad... you Have you met Wei Qi?"

Rong Shang was thoughtful, "Wei Qisheng's is not bad."

It is not very similar to Wei Ji.

It rained last night, hitting the trees outside the hall with rustling noises, making people sleepless in the middle of the night.Simply waking up early in the morning, the dryness and heat are swept away, and the air is refreshing and cool.

Wei Nanqing came to Zichen Palace early in the morning, Rong Shang didn't like this little dumpling very much, so he left early.Ming Chuan and Wei Nanqing had eaten breakfast, so they thought about going to see the dowry prepared for Jinghua.

Seeing Ming Chuan's arrival, the weavers of the internal affairs knelt down and knelt down. Ming Chuan waved his hand and told them to go, and he led Wei Nanqing around.

The withering of the Tian family is also a matter of Ming Chuan's generation. There are no other princesses in the palace except the two eldest princesses, Jing Rong and Jing Hua.Therefore, the dowries of the two princesses are very rich.

For new clothes, dozens of sets of spring, summer, autumn and winter clothes are required, and there are many kinds of Shu brocades.

Ming Chuan casually picked up a crane cloak worn in winter. Several pieces of white fox skins were joined together.

After walking another two steps, he saw a piece of silk, on which there seemed to be light flowing, and it was cool to the touch without sweating.

"what is this?"

"This is Yaoguang silk." Yan Ke said: "It's the cloth newly offered by the vassal state. It seems to have floating light and gold on it. It's very cool to wear in summer."

Ming Chuan said with a smile: "This Yaoguang silk is not bad, ask someone to make clothes for me too." He looked at the well-behaved Wei Nanqing beside him, and asked, "Are you afraid of the heat?"

Wei Nanqing shook his head.

Yan Ke said: "The young master grew up in the borderlands. I don't think he knows that the capital is hot in midsummer."

Ming Chuan thought about it, and ordered: "Make a few for the young master."

Speaking of Wei Nanqing, Ming Chuan remembered some small things he ordered for Wei Nanqing earlier.

The Internal Weaving Department found a clean place and Ming Chuan was welcomed to sit there, with two basins of ice placed on one side, and two young eunuchs came over to play fans.

Soon the leading eunuch brought several young eunuchs over with several lacquer trays.

Ming Chuan told them to come forward, and saw some gold collars and silver bracelets on the lacquer plate, as well as some small gadgets like nine chains.

Ming Chuan picked up a gold inlaid jade bracelet carved with beautiful and auspicious auspicious patterns, and put it on Wei Nanqing's chubby paws that were as white as lotus roots.Then he picked up a necklace with an oriental bead embedded in it. The oriental bead was very round and bright, as big as a longan's eye.

Ming Chuan said with a smile: "Look, it's just like the boy under the seat of Avalokitesvara."

Just talking and laughing, Jing Rong came over from there, walked up to Ming Chuan and saluted.Ming Chuan asked: "Why are you here, I'm afraid the little guy is here with me, don't you worry?"

Jing Rong said with a smile: "Your Majesty was joking, if I don't come again, I'm afraid His Majesty will bring all the gold and jade treasures with Nan Qing."

"What is this?" Ming Chuan narrowed his eyes slightly, "It's the first time I've seen him when he's grown so big... After all, I'm sorry for you."

Jingrong said: "Your Majesty wants to say that, it really hurts me. These years, thanks to His Majesty's concern, others can't underestimate us. My mother and younger sister are also taken care of by His Majesty in the palace. Now I can come back and see Let Jinghua get married, I have nothing else to ask for."

Ming Chuan looked at her, suddenly smiled, and said: "You said that you and I both know how to be contented and happy, how did the brothers of the emperor compete for that?"

Jingrong was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Maybe it's because they gave us all the contentment and happiness they lost."
