A Precious Pearl in the Imperial City

After the banquet, Jiuzhu saw that there were many officials around the father and the emperor talking to His Royal Highness, he secretly pulled his sleeve, and put his toes in his ear: "His Royal Highness,?? ."

"Okay." Yun Duqing saw that although her hand was tugging at her sleeve, her mind had already flown to the two sisters-in-law, so she took a light gauze cloak and put it on her: "Don't go out to play for too long. "

Jiu Zhu smiled and nodded, lifted the hem of her long skirt, and ran down the steps, happy like a carefree bird.

The official who was talking to the prince saw that his eyes were following the princess, not until the princess and the two emperors walked out of the palace door, only to withdraw their eyes with a smile, they knew the status of the prince in the mind of the prince, not unusual.

"His Royal Highness and the concubine and wife are deeply in love, so I moved the minister."

A prince who knows how to cherish affection is better than being cold-hearted.

Yun Duqing dismissed the official in a few sentences, and sat down beside King Huai and King An with the jug in hand.

"Prince,??..."

"Two brothers still call my fifth brother to listen to it." Yun Duqing poured a glass of wine for each of them: "As the saying goes, if brothers are of the same mind, their profit will break the gold, and the two brothers, ?? Do you see those adults coming over, help me block."

"Okay, no problem." An Wang responded enthusiastically.

King Huai sighed in the bottom of his heart, he knew that it was definitely not a good thing for the fifth to get close to them automatically.

"Hey, fifth brother." He lightly bumped Yun Duqing with his elbow: "I think fifth brother and sister's personality is pure and naive, so you just rely on her?"

"Brother, do you know why I became a prince?" Yun Duqing took a wine glass, poured it on himself, and lightly toasted with King Huai: "She is holding the best heart for me, and I will take good care of this heart. Guard, guard, cherish."

"You can live up to her."

When the fireworks are in bloom, they are as bright as stars.

Jiuzhu looked at her in a daze, her smile sweet and contented.

"Jiu Zhu." Princess Huai looked at Jiu Zhu's profile, stood beside her, and blocked the eyes of other life "women", "I didn't expect that she would show up with her."

In fact, what she wants to say is that it is best not to do such unruly things. For the civil servants and courtiers, they will not accuse them of doing too badly, but will only criticize the women and accuse Jiuzhu Charm of "enchanting" the prince.

"As I know, he will be happy if I accompany His Highness to the high platform." Jiu Zhu still looked up at the fireworks in the sky: "The higher you stand, the fewer people will be able to accompany him. I can't bear it."

"Reluctant to what?"

"I can't bear to be alone." Jiu Zhu lowered her head and smiled at Princess Huai: "The moon in the sky is accompanied by stars, why can't your Highness?"

Hearing this, Princess Huai's heart trembled and she opened her mouth to speak, but at the moment when the fireworks were in full bloom, she stopped everything she wanted to say.

There are too many trade-offs in the capital. Few people will say something like "I need it for him and I give it." Pure heart is a rare commodity in the capital.

The fireworks spread out like thousands of meteors twinkling.

If the meteor can make people's wishes come true, I hope Tai Mo will lose this rare sincerity.

The ceremonial officer rang the bell, and the fireworks stopped.

The time is coming, and the prince's ceremony will come to an end.

Jiuzhu and her two sisters-in-law returned to the main hall. She saw Yun Duqing secretly beckoning to her, and took small steps to run to him and sit down. The two were shoulder-to-shoulder, their heads pressed together.

"Are the fireworks good-looking?" Yun Duqing poured a glass of juice and fed it to her mouth.

"It's beautiful." Jiuzhu drank it with his hand: "Sister-in-law said that she has been married to the palace for several years. This is the grandest firework ceremony she has ever seen."

When Emperor Longfeng saw the young couple leaning against each other and whispering, he coughed dryly and raised his glass: "The prince is still young, please help the prince with all your heart, and benefit the people of the world."

All the ministers stood up in unison, and congratulated Dacheng for ten thousand years, and the world was at peace.

The clock rang, and the day was finally over.

The prince has been established, and it is not suitable for other emperors to live in the palace. Taking advantage of the good mood of Emperor Longfeng, some officials proposed to let the emperor move back to the palace and go back to the six divisions to practice.

These officials who made suggestions were all from aristocratic families. Emperor Longfeng glanced at the taciturn third son, King Jing, and nodded slightly: "Every gentleman is right..."

"Report!" A messenger walked in hastily: "Reporting to Your Majesty, there was a sudden loud noise from the tomb in the western suburbs just now. After Jin Wuwei used a clairvoyant to investigate, he found that the tombstone in front of the Emperor's Mausoleum was broken!"

The happy atmosphere suddenly stagnated.

"It was fine just now, why did something bad happen when I asked other emperors to return to the Sixth Division?" An official of the Ministry of Rites suddenly muttered in a low voice.

Just now, suddenly, clairvoyant, these words are desperately trying to tell someone that this matter has nothing to do with the prince.

His voice was small, but because the Zhengyang Hall was too quiet, everyone could hear him clearly.

Qin Tianjian stood up in the eyes of everyone: "Your Majesty, since the first emperor has indicated, why not postpone the plan to let a few princes return to the Sixth Division?"

When the Prince's Banquet was canonized, the stars and the moon were shining together, and the auspicious signs were repeated. Just after the canonization of the crown prince banquet was over, when several other emperors were mentioned, the tombstone of the late emperor was cracked. What does this mean?

The explanation is too good, the problem is one of the emperors.

"Then according to what the supervisor said, this matter will be postponed." Emperor Longfeng smiled gently: "It seems that the father and emperor also know that I am reluctant to leave a few children by my side, so that they can stay by my side for a longer time."

All the ministers said yes,

But looking at the eyes of several princes, there is still something wrong.

Wei Jieyu almost broke the wine glass in her hand, and the banquet was dispersed. She walked behind the concubines and concubines and turned to look at Du Qingke who was standing under the porch, her eyes filled with coldness.

It was a good idea to blow up the tombstone in front of the emperor's mausoleum at the canonization of the prince's banquet, to show that the canonization of Yunduqing as the prince was a bad omen, and then take the opportunity to let several emperors return to the palace and walk to the six divisions to plan for the future.

As a result, the ominous omen did indeed happen, but the timing was stuck at the moment when His Majesty promised to let the three princes go back to Liubu.

Is Du Qingke trying to help her, is it an undercover agent sent by Su Meidai?

"Mother concubine." King Jing walked beside her and held her arm: "Send my son back to the palace."

Princess Jing let go of Wei Jieyu's hand and paused slightly, one step behind her mother.

"Du Qingke is unbelievable." Wei Jieyu whispered to King Jing, "I suspect that he is pretending to cooperate with us, "fascinated" and "confused" us, so that Yun Duqing can successfully confer the crown prince."

If it weren't for the fact that she and Huang'er were both in the harem and couldn't "intervene" in many things, how could she leave such matters to Du Qingke.

If it wasn't for the fear of "revelation", she wouldn't have waited until yesterday to tell Du Qingke the plan. She originally thought that with the strength of the Du family, it only took a few hours to do such a trivial matter, and she did not expect such a big mistake.

Yun Duqing didn't get in the way, but smashed his own foot, what a Du Qingke!

Wei Jieyu was trembling with anger, but in front of everyone, she had to keep a polite and decent smile.

He Du Qingke is unkind, don't blame her for being unjust!

After finishing his work, the housekeeper of Du's house was caught by Jin Wuwei on the way back.

It was Yu Jian who caught him. Yu Jian's neighbor when he was a child opened a fireworks and firecracker shop, so he was particularly sensitive to the smell of fireworks. The housekeeper of the Du residence and a few confidants passed by him on horseback, and he smelled the smell and stopped them with a knife.

"Master, this is the housekeeper of Du's house. I just came back from doing errands out of town." The housekeeper of Du's house took out his waist card, which was recorded in the city documents of other states and counties.

Yu Jian took the waist card and handed it to the brother behind him, walked to the horse's side, and took off the petals from the horse's tail that had been stained at some point.

If he remembers correctly, there are most of these flowers outside the imperial mausoleum in the western suburbs.

Legend has it that this kind of flower was brought to the world by the blue bird in front of the throne of the Queen Mother of the West. The royal family believed that as long as the mausoleum was filled with this kind of flower, the soul would be brought back to the sky by the blue bird and become an immortal.

"The road to Beijing from other places probably won't pass through the imperial mausoleum in the western suburbs." Yu Jian packed the petals in a cloth bag and waved her hand: "Take the person away."

"My lord, I'm the housekeeper of the Du family. I will take us away indiscriminately, so I'm not afraid that the Du family will trouble you?"

"The head of the Du family has been arrested, afraid of a housekeeper?" Yu Jian sneered: "I suspect that they have something to do with the destruction of the tombstone of the late emperor. Before the case is investigated, the grievances will stay in the Jingzhao Mansion Prison."

If there is no thunder and no rain, how can the tombstone explode as soon as it says it is bombed?

Today is a good day for King Chen to confer the crown prince. It is inevitable that some people will hide and engage in shady methods. In the early morning of this morning, he brought Jin Wuwei's only clairvoyant.

Unexpectedly, there is really a great contribution to his eyes.

Such a great feat, if he doesn't stand up, he will be sorry for the treasure clairvoyant around his waist.

"Not only people, but horses too. Take off their shoes and coats and check carefully to see where they have passed."

If you can't be the lackey in front of Prince Chen's residence, or the lackey in Prince Zhan's residence, it will be even more beautiful.

"Father, talk about the broken tombstone of the late emperor..."

"Naturally it's man-made." Ming Jingzhou sat on the rickety carriage, and there was nothing respectful in his tone: "I have many Ming monarchs in the Dacheng Dynasty, if there is any warning, it will also be the tombstones of other emperors cracked, anyway, it is absolutely impossible It's him."

Ming Jiyuan was silent.

That being said, it makes sense.

If it was artificial, the tombstone of other emperors might not be dared to be bombed, but the previous emperor was different. He was a comatose and incompetent person, and if he bombed his tombstone, not only the royal family would not be too angry, maybe even Will not check carefully.

"Who is helping His Royal Highness then?"

The fifth emperor just became the wife, and the other princes went to the sixth department to walk, which is not a good thing for the wife. As soon as this happened, whether it was man-made or an omen, it was impossible for His Majesty to let them go back to the Sixth Division, and it would be difficult for other officials to continue to bring it up.

"It can't be... Your Majesty did it yourself, right?" Ming Jiyuan swallowed. In order to pave the way for the Crown Prince, is His Majesty being too... "filial"?

Ming Jingzhou coughed dryly: "Don't talk nonsense. Your Majesty is filial and kind, and it is impossible to do such a thing."

The carriage stopped at the door of Ming's house. Ming Jiyuan got off the carriage and was about to stretch out his hand to help Ming Jingzhou when he saw two people in green robes sitting at the door.

The Taoist woman sitting on the steps held a huge steamed bun in her hands and ate it with relish. Seeing their father and son getting off the carriage, they all looked up.

"The two chiefs, I don't know where they came from?" Shen Ying got down from a carriage at the back, walked in front of the two chiefs, and gave them a slight blessing: "The night is dark, if the two chiefs don't dislike it, please Follow me to the cold house to rest?"

Ever since Jiuzhu came back, the Ming family has been very enthusiastic about Daoists.

"Alright." The master put the steamed bun into the second master's hand, stood up and patted the ashes on the back of the robe: "If there is hot water, let us take a bath first."

"Yes, yes." Shen Ying was stunned for a moment: "

Long please come with me. "

"Thank you very much, you have worked hard." Grandfather walked through the gate of Ming's house, glanced around, and nodded in praise: "Your house is upright and clean, and it is a blessed home."

"Thank you for your praise." Shen Ying smiled and thanked: "I don't know where the two leaders are practicing in Xianju?"

The master took a step: "Forgot to tell Madam that we are Jiuzhu's family master. The two of us don't pay attention to the name. Jiuzhu has always been called the master and the second master. "

"It turned out to be the two immortals." Shen Ying stopped, and Ming Jingzhou and Ming Jiyuan also stepped forward.

"The grace of saving life is unforgettable in the Ming family. Please let the two immortals accept our worship." Ming Jingzhou lifted his robes, and was preparing to bow down to the two elders.

"Master Ming, the two of us have a relationship with Jiuzhu, and you don't have to do this." The master's father supported Ming Jingzhou and Shen Ying alone, but there was no force on his wrists, but the couple couldn't kneel down.

"For the common people of the world, they are upright and unyielding, and they were sent to a place of bitter cold and separated from their daughters. God asked us to save Jiuzhu because of their kindness, not our work." Two people, we can only represent the people of the world, let's bow down."

"What's more, the appearance of Jiuzhu has also brought us a lot of joy. We give her growth, she gives us happiness, and no one owes anyone."

"Yes." Ming Jingzhou understood the meaning of the avenue chief, and after she let go of herself, he gave her a deep bow.

"I just watched the stars, and Jiuzhu's life has changed." Seeing that the Ming family was interested, Dao Chang continued to kneel and bow without being sticky, and nodded with satisfaction: "What happened today that is very important to Jiuzhu?"

"Returning to the Great Immortal, today is the day when His Majesty canonized the crown prince. The crown prince is Jiuzhu's husband, Yun Duqing."

"So it is." Daochang looked up at the starry sky and smiled for a moment: "If we knew this, we would not have to go to Beijing."

Shortly after Jiuzhu returned to Beijing, she deduced nine times for Jiuzhu's life chart, and every time she showed that Jiuzhu would have a fate this year.

But she squatted at the gate of Ming's house today and speculated again, and found that the fate of the disaster disappeared, but it was the appearance of extravagance.

In this capital, she didn't want to stay any longer.

White ran.
