After Li Linhuai said this, he saw a few pages of paper pressed on the inkstone on the table. He thought it was the method of movable type printing mentioned by the little princess. He stuffed the things into his arms, glanced at Li Sixu, who was sleeping peacefully on the couch, and stepped away. Out the window.
After he left, Liu Yunying, who had been breathing heavily, opened her eyes while sleeping on the thick rope, and a meaningful smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
The night is very long!
The moonlight is bright, half of the room is clear...
Concubine Shu was so angry that her chest hurt for several days.
Last time she just contracted some minor illnesses such as wind, cold and cough. This time, as the prince said, the old problem has returned, and the old problem of chest pain has returned.
After being tortured for several days, she became very sick. After she recovered a little, she allowed the palace maid to support her and walk around in the garden.
On one side of the fish pond next to the peonies in Qingfeng Hall, there are several osmanthus plants planted. The lush branches have stretched over the fish pond. When the strong autumn wind blows, the fallen flowers fall into the fish pond, attracting fish to play. peck.
"These osmanthus plants are in bloom!"
Concubine Shu sniffed the scent of osmanthus in the air, looked at the fish vying for food in the pond, and sighed: "In spring, the peonies in the Japanese palace garden are in full bloom, in summer, the lotus flowers in Taiye Lake are graceful, and in autumn, There is a garden full of sweet-scented osmanthus, but it’s a pity that the flowers don’t last a hundred days, and the flowering period is too short!”
"In the Daming Palace, the four seasons change. No matter how beautiful the flowers bloom, they will eventually wither. However, those who appreciate the flowers only love the flowers that bloom most beautifully and brightly after they are in bud. Duo."
"Therefore, I believe that even if the flowers bloom and fade, the roots of the tree must be firmly rooted in the Ming Dynasty Palace in order to occupy a place."
Concubine Shu looked at Eunuch Bao who was following her: "Why doesn't the prince understand my thoughts? I have done so much, all for the prince!"
"Empress..."
Eunuch Bao stopped talking!
Concubine Shu threw some fish food and said, "Tell me, what's going on with Zhang Jiazhen?"
"I still claimed to be ill and did not go to court. I heard some rumors that His Majesty intended to summon Zhang Suo to serve in the capital and enter the central government."
Eunuch Bao lowered his voice: "Mother, I'm afraid the wind in the court is about to change!"
"Zhang Jiazhen is really a useless thing. She fell into the pit dug by the little devil Linglongju and couldn't recover."
Concubine Shu crushed the fish food in her hand into pieces and frowned: "When Yang Guibin was pregnant, His Majesty, who was still the Crown Prince, was competing with the Taiping Party. In order not to arouse the Taiping Party's rebellion, His Majesty I am afraid that I will abort the emperor’s son in Yang Guibi’s belly.”
"When His Majesty was boiling medicine in person, he dreamed of gods overturning the cauldron. Zhang said that this was a good omen, so the fetus in Yang Guifei's belly was saved and she gave birth to the third prince."
Eunuch Bao understood what she meant: "Is the empress worried that Zhang Shuo, who is related to Yang Guibi's family, will gravitate towards the third prince?"
"His Majesty initially accepted Yang Guifei into the Crown Prince's Palace, but he managed to win over the influence of the noble clan. Therefore, he had the strength to compete with his aunt Taiping, and he got his wish and ascended to the throne of God."
Concubine Shu said worriedly: "I have to be afraid of the noble family behind Yang Guifei."
"What I can give to the prince is still too little!"
Concubine Shu sighed, covering her aching heart and said, "There is one person who can break this situation."
Eunuch Bao's eyes lit up: "Who?"
"Yao Chong!"
"When Zhang said he left Beijing, it was thanks to Yao Chong. There has always been an old grudge between the two."
Thinking of the intersection between Yao Chong and Li Sixu, Concubine Shu's eyes gradually dimmed, and she said regretfully: "I still made a miscalculation. I didn't take a step ahead of Yang Guifei and Concubine Xian to win over that brat in Linglongju."
Seeing his mother-in-law's regretful look, Eunuch Bao said hurriedly: "I have received another piece of news, that is, after His Majesty went to court today, he summoned Mr. Yao to the imperial study to discuss matters. I wonder if it is related to the transfer of Zhang Shuo to the capital? "
The gloom in Concubine Shu's eyes instantly disappeared like a tide, and she looked at Eunuch Bao with an expression of admiration.
In fact, as Concubine Shu's master and servant guessed, Xuanzong summoned Yao Chong to the imperial study precisely to discuss summoning Zhang Shuo to serve in Beijing.
"I want to summon Zhang Shuo to the capital to serve as Minister of the Ministry of War and to be ranked third under the same sect as Zhongshu. What does Yao Aiqing think?"
Yao Chong was already old, and he had been on the sickbed some time ago. He finally managed to enter the palace and go to court. Xuanzong cherished him very much.
Eunuch Yang moved a chair, and Xuanzong asked Yao Chong to sit down and talk.
After Yao Chong thanked him, he panted and said, "I think your Majesty's move is very appropriate!"
"Master Yuan has a gentle temperament and doesn't like to argue with others. Whenever anything happens, he always asks Master Zhang what he wants."
"I observe that Mr. Zhang is good at making decisions on important matters and is quick and quick. However, he is too masculine and has some tensions with his colleagues. There are indeed people in the court who have criticized this matter."
Yao Chong said with reason: "Your Majesty's move to Beijing has played a mediating role and can regulate the relations between North Korea and China."
Yao Chong actually agreed to transfer Zhang Yue to Beijing, which surprised Xuanzong!
One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers!
It was originally planned to appoint Mr. Yao as prime minister, so Zhang Shuo was transferred out of the capital.
He had already made up his mind to talk about Zhang joining the capital and summoned Yao Chong to the imperial study to inquire about the matter, just because he respected him for his dedication to the court and wanted to say hello to him.
Xuanzong sighed: "I thought Yao Aiqing would not support Zhang's move to Beijing?"
"I'm old!"
Hearing Yao Chong's sigh, Xuanzong was stunned for a moment.
Yao Chong said sadly: "I have the intention to run errands for His Majesty and do something for the people of the world, but lately I have been unable to stay in bed."
"Zhang's talk about leaving Beijing back then was indeed somewhat involved with me."
Yao Chong changed the topic: "But personal safety is a small matter, and the imperial court's public affairs are big ones. Talking about returning to Beijing will be beneficial to the current situation in the imperial court. Why should the veteran object?"
"I believe that Sir Zhang will live up to His Majesty's trust. After entering the capital, he will be able to share His Majesty's worries and benefit the people of the world."
By the end of the story, Yao Chong was in tears, with tears in his old eyes.
Xuanzong was so touched that he personally stepped forward to help him: "My love for you is really a blessing to the Tang Dynasty. There are all virtuous ministers in the world. I have love for you, like a fish in water. With love for you, the Wu Dynasty will gradually show signs of prosperity after returning power to the Tang Dynasty."
"Aiqing must take care of himself. The Tang Dynasty cannot live without important ministers like Aiqing."
"I received Li Tang's salary and was supported by the people. I just did what I should do. Tens of thousands of stars shined, and the vast Li Tang world existed. The role I played in it was nothing more than a firefly to a bright moon."
Yao Chong bowed deeply to Xuanzong and said, "I am so kind to your Majesty that I can receive such kindness from your majesty and to be cherished by the little princess. It is because I have met such a holy son of heaven like your majesty."
