Chapter 106 Chapter 106
Not long after Xie Fanghan's coronation ceremony was the Mid-Autumn Festival, because Emperor Yan's birthday was going to be a big one this year, so Yan Yutang used this reason to avoid the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet again.
In the past two years, the excuse of the war in the south was used as an excuse. This year, Xie Fanghan came back. It was not easy to shirk, but fortunately, it was in time for Emperor Yan's birthday.
In the past, when Emperor Yan was in power, the palace banquet was a small gathering every half a month and a big gathering every January. I don't know how to find out the reason, anyway, it was a banquet every day.
Now that the family has changed, the Yan Yutang sisters have the right to speak, and this palace banquet has hardly been held a few times, and even if it is held, it is just a symbolic cutscene, solemn but not extravagant.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is a reunion banquet. Xie Fanghan wanted to take the old man back to Beijing for the festival, but was rejected by the old man who said "I don't want to make trouble".
Thanks to him, the hot springs in the suburbs of Beijing have basically become "nursing homes" for the old ministers of Xijing. Those with and without families all go there, and few return to Beijing for the holidays.
Xie Fanghan can understand it when he thinks about it. Generally, there is only one elderly family of this age, and there is no one to talk to on weekdays. Now that they have the opportunity to get together, chat and play chess, they naturally don't want to leave.
If the old man doesn't go back, Xie Fanghan will spend the New Year in the palace with peace of mind. This year's people are relatively neat, not only her, but Wei Nanyan and Li Zhe also entered the palace. Li Zhe's fleet will not set off until the New Year is over. when.
On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Tang Garden became lively after a long absence. The attendants were busy shuttling in the garden. Yan Yutang and Yan Yujia also put aside political affairs to celebrate the festival in peace. After Yan Yudan came out of the cold palace, he saw the bright moon waiting outside. The focus of the audience, the round table with an average of 20 "young people" sitting around became the most lively place in this palace city.
"I wish I could sit with everyone like this every year."
Li Zhe didn't know if he drank too much, and the usually cheerful person also began to feel emotional.
Wei Nanyan was very shameless, "Can't you say something happy when it's a big festival?"
Li Zhe looked at Xie Fanghan and said, "I never thought that I would be able to do what I wanted to do when I was in my 20s."
Xie Fanghan took a sip of his wine and said with a smile, "I never thought I would become a first-rank general when I was in my 20s."
Yan Yutang followed closely and said, "I never thought that I would be in charge of the state before I was 20 years old."
Yan Yujia was unwilling to be lonely: "And me, I never thought that I would help my sister handle the government affairs before I was 20 years old."
After Yan Yujia finished this sentence, she continued: "Look at the girls in their teens in other families in Xijing. They all enjoy flowers and swim in the lake every now and then, reciting poems and playing the piano, while I deal with political affairs from morning to night, sometimes And wrangling with a bunch of old men."
When Yan Yujia said this, the chatterbox completely opened up.
From how sour the minister's words were, to how procrastinated the servant's work was, Yan Yutang began to add after listening to a few sentences.
From civil servants to generals, from first rank to sixth rank.
Yan Yujia almost complained about the entire court.
Until the moon was in the middle of the sky, the people present got up and left one after another, the palace gate was closed, Li Zhe and Wei Nanyan stayed in Tangyuan, and returned to the room they used to study with.
Xie Fanghan dared to sneak into Yan Yutang's bedroom because he drank the wine by himself. After entering, he was worried that Yan Yutang would drive him out, so he jumped onto the bed while she was not paying attention, and pulled the quilt to cover himself tightly. The bottom is exposed.
Yan Yutang didn't drink much at night, and her consciousness was still very clear. She looked at Xie Fanghan on the bed with helpless eyes, "I just lay down while wearing a coat."
Xie Fanghan thought for a while, sat up, and quickly took off only his underwear.
As the saying goes, wine is strong and cowardly, but when Yan Yutang lay down beside her, Xie Fanghan still cowardly hid inside.
Yan Yutang couldn't help laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Xie Fang asked sternly.
"What are you afraid of?" Yan Yutang turned over and faced Xie Fanghan.
"I'm not afraid." Xie Fanghan did not admit this statement.
"Really?" Yan Yutang questioned very much.
Xie Fanghan didn't answer her words, and Yan Yutang didn't force her, he moved closer to her and said in a low voice, "Go to sleep."
Xie Fanghan waited until Yan Yutang was fast asleep, then gently hugged him through the quilt.
"Good night," she said softly.
……
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Liang Guo's credentials were also delivered.
As they thought, the content of the letter of credence was that Prince Liang went to Dayan to celebrate Emperor Yan's birthday.
The courtiers have different attitudes towards this, but they have reached a consensus on one point. Prince Liang's rise this time must have malicious intentions.
And just after Prince Liang's convoy entered the territory of Dayan, another major event happened in Xijing.
Yan Huang, who had ignored the government for three years, suddenly came to the court.
Although Yan Yutang's power to supervise the country was not revoked, he did not speak up, and closed his eyes as if he was asleep most of the time, but he did indeed sit back on the dragon chair.
The courtiers began to beat drums in their hearts, not sure what Yan Huang meant by this.
Even Yan Yujia didn't understand what kind of play this was singing. She glanced at Xie Fanghan who was standing on the other side, and seeing her serious face, she understood that she didn't know what was going on.
We can only wait until the next court to add up.
After the court, all the people gathered in the Tangyuan by coincidence.
Before they could open their mouths to ask, Yan Yutang said first: "I declare first, I don't know what happened today, and I was also fooled when I heard that the emperor arrived."
Even Yan Yutang didn't know?
What on earth is Emperor Yan going to do?
Wei Nanyan: "Could it be related to Prince Liang?"
It is not groundless that she can raise this idea. The most recent major event is that Prince Liang came to Dayan to celebrate his birthday.
Everyone discussed for a long time, but they couldn't find any clues, and finally they just said to wait and see what happened.
On the second day of court, Emperor Yan had a new move. He asked the officials to send the memorial to Houde Hall.
Is this to regain power?
As soon as this signal was released, several families were really happy and others were sad.
I am happy for those old ministers who have held their breath for a long time, and I am worried about the rookies who have just started in recent years.
Fortunately, Emperor Yan still kept silent during the early court, and he didn't say much about Yan Yutang's arrangements, and the two of them didn't develop a tit-for-tat situation. This close relationship lasted until Prince Liang entered Beijing.
Emperor Yan held a banquet in the imperial garden and greeted Prince Liang personally.
Emperor Yan, who had been quiet since returning to court, suddenly talked more this day. Although the total number of words was only ten innings, more than half of them were praising Prince Liang for being young and promising.
The courtiers smelled the signs and speculated whether Emperor Yan planned to marry Daliang.
Although the fifth princess already has a marriage contract, there is still the seventh princess, who is also of the right age and is the perfect candidate for a marriage.
Gu Jin didn't know if he really didn't hear it, or if he was just pretending, his words were full of praise for Dayan, from the folk customs and scenery along the way, to the excellence and promise of the royal family and courtiers.
He and Yanhuang, you praise me and I praise you, those who don't know think that these two people are part of the same family.
Xie Fanghan's eyes fell on Gu Jin the whole time. She wanted to see if the "prince" who came to the welcome banquet today was the one who was fighting for the position in Daliang, or the one who secretly fought against her in the southern border.
Yanhuang seemed to have heard Xie Fanghan's thoughts, and suddenly changed the topic to her, "I heard that Prince Liang is both civil and military. It just so happens that I, Dayan, also have such a young hero."
Holding the wine glass, Gu Jin turned his eyes to Xie Fanghan naturally, and the two people's eyes met, and then moved away from each other for a moment.
Gu Jin: "I have long heard that Dayan gave birth to a first-rank hussar general who is not very old. He really is a hero who gave birth to a boy."
Gu Jin's eyes were gentle, his tone was sincere, and there was nothing wrong with it.
Xie Fanghan raised his glass to return the gift, "His Royal Highness is absurd, the last general is just a rough man who knows how to fight, not as good as His Royal Highness, who is proficient in all kinds of poetry and songs."
Yan Yujia answered in a timely manner: "Speaking of poems and songs, a famous qin girl came to Beijing a few days ago, and it was rumored that the songs she played were all fairy songs from heaven. I ordered someone to invite her into the palace, and I want to take this opportunity to let everyone listen to this so-called fairy song."
"I don't know what the father wants?"
The courtiers communicated in low voices, and it seemed that they had all heard of Qin Ji's name.
Yan Huang was very face-saving: "Since the emperor said so, then bring people up and play a song."
Yan Yujia smiled brightly, raised her hand and said, "Come on, bring Qin Ji up here."
Xie Fanghan has been paying attention to Gu Jin, staring at him and paying attention to his every little move. He behaved very calmly, like a good guest following the arrangement of the host, but when Qin Ji appeared, he still showed his feet.
Xie Fanghan withdrew her gaze, she had already got what she wanted to know.
Gu Jin would have such a big reaction, probably because they didn't expect them to let the real Qin Ji appear.
Qin Ji's identity was finally revealed under the torture of the hidden guards. She was Liang Guoan's assassin in Dayan, and she came to Beijing this time to collect information for Prince Liang.
It's just bad luck, I met Xie Fanghan and Yan Yutang at the first performance in Beijing.
The reason why the piece she plays can give people a splitting headache is also because the piece itself comes from the secret biography of the royal family. The author is the national teacher who invented Gu worms that only eat the blood of the royal family of Liang.
The more people who understand music theory, the more affected they will be when they hear this piece of music. Dayan values ethics and education, and a gentleman must be good at all six arts. Prince Liang's original idea was to let Qin Ji go to Emperor Yan through the recommendation of an important official. At the birthday banquet, it turned out that Qin Ji lost contact after entering Beijing.
Gu Jin had no choice but to make another plan as he lost a pawn before he set out.
In the end, he didn't expect this abandoned child to appear at his reception banquet.
Qin Ji betrayed?
Impossible, it is impossible for Qin Ji to betray herself, Gu Jin is very sure of this.
But if she didn't betray him, why did she appear at this time?Wasn't it lost contact, but Qin Ji couldn't reach him?
He turned his attention to Yan Yujia. Before the two princesses, Dayan, he had done enough homework. This seventh princess was different from other royal children. She grew up among the people. But his behavior is still very different from other royal children.
Qin Ji was led to the center of the arena by her attendants, and began to play clankly.
Through the sound of the piano, Gu Jin was even more sure that this was Qin Ji herself.
So Qin Ji really didn't betray herself?
Gu Jin was a little uncertain, maybe he should find a chance to test the Seventh Princess.
Yan Yujia glanced at Yan Yutang and Xie Fanghan who was beside her, and the three of them exchanged a vague look.
The show has just begun.
