At the celebration banquet of Jinxiang Hall, as the melody of the musician's flute gradually grew higher, the harp strings were also rapid. The dancer wearing a red dress had a festive smile on his face, looking up sideways at the top, their high temples were like clouds and peach blossoms, and their long red sleeves swung upwards. Suddenly, a morning glow seemed to land on the platform, gorgeous and beautiful.
The dancers' skills are actually not very good. The Tokyo palace singing and dancing seem to have little development. They are all sorting out old bottles and new costumes left by the Tang Dynasty... Because the Central Plains emperors have been fighting for decades, these have no motivation to develop. The palace singing girls are mainly performed for the emperor and princes.
The current imperial court essays have been abolished, and only Taichang Temple is supervising these people.
However, at this time, the emperor Guo Shao, who was watching the songs and dances at the top, and the generals who attended the banquet did not recommend any dances... As long as the woman is beautiful and twists her, it's fine.
Guo Shao looked back at the left and right when he was in power. The ministers and generals on one side were very excited, and the maids on the other side also enjoyed this lively and noble occasion. He was very satisfied with the banquet at the moment.
At this moment, a group of palace maids wearing moon and white Luo skirts came over from the side in slight steps. They served Guo Shao first, and then placed them for the guests below.
Guo Shao looked down and found that it was the chopped roast lamb.
A female official took the opportunity to approach Guo Shao and said in the sound of music: Report to Your Majesty, the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple (Zuo You) told the people in the imperial kitchen that Your Majesty talked to the generals when he went to war and wanted to eat roasted lamb made in the palace, so the slaves and others came here specially.
well.Guo Shao nodded and praised twice.
He immediately lifted up his chopsticks and said, "Let the ministers try it too."
The servants obey the order.
Guo Shao suddenly remembered his life on the front line. The food was very monotonous and dull. Any general even said that he would fade out of his mouth!
At that time, I really wanted to eat something delicious. People's desires were actually very simple, and now they are easily satisfied.
He picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth. The skin was crispy and the meat was delicious. After chewing it for two seconds, his mouth was full of oil.
On such a lively occasion, he didn't taste it carefully, and it felt okay after eating a few pieces.
His attention could not be focused on one point, and the newly replaced dancer was dressed very attractively, and Guo Shao couldn't help but take a few more glances.
The women were wearing thin purple dresses and strapless breasts, half exposed, and swaying in front of Guo Shao, making him feel a sense of heat.
He hasn't been close to women for a long time on the front line. Although Jing Niang is by her side, Guo Shao can't ask her to sleep at will... It's not good to be noticed by the soldiers.
At this time, Guo Shao was very restless. He had just returned to Beijing and everything had not yet come to an end. All things were like people watching the lights, and all kinds of emotions were floating up and down.
Although he was socially appropriate and calm, he was actually dealing with it randomly in his heart.
The luncheon lasted until the afternoon, and Guo Shao personally rewarded and rewarded the civil and military officials and military officials with some saddles, ribbons, gold and silver, and waited for the people to thank them, and then it ended.
Guo Shao returned to the study in Jinxiang Palace and saw a pile of files on the table.
But it was not a memorial. He opened it and read it. It was Wang Pu's suggestion for rewarding merits in the Northern Han Dynasty. In addition to the list and the submission of documents, the written military orders collected by the former camp military office... as evidence of reward and punishment.
The complicated military orders are related to the process of each link in the battle.
Guo Shao couldn't calm down and looked at it, so he threw it aside.
He just wanted to calm down for a while now... This impetuous mood was like after the family had just finished doing something and entertained a large number of relatives and friends.
Tokyo Imperial City is now Guo Shao’s home, but he doesn’t feel like home when he comes back. It’s very similar to a workplace. The large number of officials and eunuchs and palace maids in the Imperial City also regard the emperor’s daily life as a workplace.
In the era of family, country and world, the royal family is indeed not just a family, but also a country!
Guo Shao never lived in a high-ranking environment in both lives. At this time, he had a feeling: the bigger the family business, the more the family members and relatives were actually a resource allocation relationship, especially the royal family, where almost everyone was active around this matter.
In the bustling Tokyo Imperial City, Guo Shao suddenly felt a little lonely. No wonder the ancient kings all called themselves idiots.
Guo Shao put down the file in his hand, stood up and walked towards the lounge behind him, and the eunuch Cao Tai, who was on duty, followed in.
Guo Shaogang walked into the hall and felt a little strange. He soon found that this place was different from before, because there were blue and green flowers and plants inside.
Guo Shao didn't recognize the blue flowers and green leaves, and he had no knowledge of this thing.
Your Majesty, this is Iris.When you went to war, Empress Duanci was in power here and asked the palace servants to move in.Cao Tai said.
Queen Duanci Fu Jinzhan is no longer in Jinxiang Hall, and Guo Shao has never seen her after he came back.
He suddenly remembered something, that when he returned to the court, Fu Ermei went to Xuande Gate to greet him, and then had a banquet for the ministers... Fu Jinzhan did not come, and her identity seemed not suitable for such occasions.
Guo Shao paced back and forth a few steps in the fragrance of iris, then turned to Cao Tai and said: Getting ready for the car, I want to go to Zide Hall to meet Empress Duanci.
The servants obey the order.Cao Tai replied.
...Zide Hall is one of the main halls of the harem, built on a high platform on the central axis of the imperial city; the place where Guo Shao and Fu Jinzhan met was the pavilion and open hall on the west side, which was where they often met before, and the location was very high.
Fu Jinzhan sat on the chair very dignified and quiet, as if she was away from the noisy people. However, her red cheeks, slightly trembling eyelashes, and some trivial and subtle movements showed that her mood was not so calm at this time. Guo Shao was anxious to come to meet her, and she looked very surprised.
Guo Shao bowed his hand slightly and said: The Imperial Guard returned to Beijing this morning. There are many things he has done when he comes back. It’s only now that he has left to ask the emperor’s sister-in-law about his good health. Please don’t blame him.
There was a woman in a round-necked purple robe standing on both sides and behind Fu Jinzhan. Her words and deeds were also generous and decent. She immediately spoke and said soothingly: Your Majesty is the emperor, of course you should put great matters first. I can understand. I thought it would take a few days to see Your Majesty, but you didn't expect that you would be so polite.She said with a smile on her face, congratulations to Your Majesty for conquering the Eastern Han Dynasty (Northern Han Dynasty), and the great event of unification of the world is one step closer.
In front of people, she acted very generously and talked about such a tall thing as the Great Unification of the World. Everyone around her was full of awe.
She raised her arm gently and said, "Your Majesty, sit down and talk."
Guo Shao nodded, and took the opportunity to look at Fu Jinzhan a few times while sitting. Generally speaking, he could not stare at Fu Jinzhan according to etiquette. This is called not to look at him inappropriately. It is also a habit for men and women to talk to each other... So at this time, men and women will not look at each other's face when talking. It is not that they are distracted and impolite, but that they respect them.
They are very polite and rules, but people's hearts are not limited by rules.
In the etiquette, Guo Shao glanced at Fu Jinzang's chest and noticed the outline covered by the thin and soft yellow silk, which was full and plump, fat and natural lines, which were very wonderful.
He swept past and immediately found Fu Jinzhan's smiling eyes. He felt like he was seen through. He was busy paying extra attention to his words and deeds... He was always the one who was paid attention to, and sometimes he was still quite uncomfortable.
Fu Jinzhan said seriously: I learned that Your Majesty returned to the court today, and I have sorted out all the affairs of the court and placed them in Jinxiang Hall.Your Majesty can ask about the political affairs of the Political Affairs Hall in the past few months.
It made the emperor's sister-in-law worry.Guo Shao said.
There were a few things... Fu Jinzhan pretended to be willing to speak but stopped, so she looked at her side slightly.The women around them bowed their knees and retreated one after another.
Soon Guo Shao and Fu Jinzhan were left with a lonely man and a widow... But those who stood outside the door could see the scene in the open hall; and they could also see this on the road outside the Zide Hall.
This is also the reason why Fu Jinzhan and Guo Shao always meet here. Even if they get along alone, they are mostly in places where people can see them, so as not to give people misunderstandings.
After all, their rumors have been circulated in the past, which is too easy to make people suspicious.
The servants had already retreated, but Fu Jinzhan didn't say anything about those things. Obviously she had nothing to do, just wanted to find an excuse to get along alone... Although in broad daylight, there was no one around her, at least no details such as eyes could be seen, and no one could hear anything she said.
The two of them looked at each other silently.It's just a little separation, but this is the only way.
However, this place is very good, with a high location and a spacious hall. From time to time, a cool breeze blows, the air is fresh and the feeling is very refreshing.
The view is very open, and you can see the double-eaved palaces and brick and stone avenues. There are people coming and going on the road, but they are not noisy (no one dares to make noise near the main hall).
Tokyo and the Imperial City are also one of the most prosperous and luxurious places of this era, as if the center of the world; such places without depression will have different moods, which makes people open-minded.
Guo Shao really felt very comfortable, without the dirt and messy dust, without the noise... The seasons were also very good, neither lukewarm nor hot, and there were not even mosquitoes.
Before he knew it, he felt that his impetuous state of mind was gradually settled, and the turbulent restlessness in the superficial areas had dissipated, and he had returned to peace and tranquility.And all this is just a short time.
Guo Shao looked at Fu Jinzhan's face, with bright eyes and white teeth, smooth lips, and his white skin was shining with a goose yellow luster, which was the color of bright sunshine outside.
She is beautiful, but very decent and dignified, especially the smile like moonlight, which makes Guo Shao's heart full of joy and sunshine, and various negative emotions dissipate with the wind.
What a happy afternoon, it was great to see the marigold.Guo Shao said gently.
Fu Jinzan said in a joking tone: Even if you haven’t seen me, there are still many people waiting for you to see me. Those people are no worse than me.
Guo Shao: ...
The dancers' skills are actually not very good. The Tokyo palace singing and dancing seem to have little development. They are all sorting out old bottles and new costumes left by the Tang Dynasty...
