230 Volunteering

230: The 230: The slightest move

On the auspicious day of March, it was the time for the queen to hold the "Silks" sacrifice. A yellow curtain tent was set up on the silkworm altar at the north end of the Taiye Pond in the West Garden. The tent included the throne of the silkworm god, the god of the silkworm god, and various sacrifices such as cows, sheep, pigs, wine.

The queen ate for three days, and then followed the deacons who entered the altar to eat ate for one day in the Maiden Palace. On the day of the silkworms, Queen Xia got up early before dawn to set an example.

The guards of honor of a total of 10,000 people have been arranged: 5,000 people guard the surroundings of Xiancanyuan, and 5,000 people follow the queen to guard. Empress Zhang led her to the female official out of the palace gate. Behind her are two noble concubines, princesses, noble relatives’ wives and concubines of officials with fourth ranks of civil service and third ranks of military service, unmarried sisters, and daughters of thirteen years old.

They arranged in sequence, each of them brought a maid, who held a basket of mulberry pickers, led by the queen, with flowers and fragrance spreading for several miles. The team of women who were rare in the world, drove towards the silkworm altar in a mighty way. Unfortunately, the heavy troops were guarding the whole way, so ordinary people would not have the chance to meet them.

The young lady was originally light and healthy, but now she is not very obvious in her pregnancy. She is far from being as big as a belly. She wore the robe and robe of the third-rank lady. She was very well concealed. She was still more beautiful than a flower and was charming.

Yu Tangchun, Xuelimei, and Tang Yixian appeared together for the first time today. Yu Tangchun and Xuelimei were also wearing the robe of the decree's wife. Tang Yixian wore a wooden red narrow-sleeved short jacket and a willow yellow long skirt. The four women walked in a winding manner, which was very conspicuous among the crowd.

The Empress, who was traveling far away under the canopy, also thought that today's Silkworm, Yang Ling's cousin, the girl who made the emperor fascinated, would definitely appear. She just occasionally looked back and saw that her fate was like a cloud of women and a ring of peaches. But where did she go to find her?

The mother of the six palaces in the world was in sloppy at this grand ceremony. She had to endure the jealousy in her heart and walked alone at the front. When she arrived at the silkworm altar, Empress Xia was wearing a robe, first climbed to the altar to offer sacrifices, then accepted the wife's kneeling, and finally walked to the mulberry tree and stood with a hook.

Next to him, female officials from the Six Shang Bureau stood up, one of them holding a basket of mulberry picking willows. Empress Xia raised a hook and picked three leaves. The female official picked it up and put it into the basket. Even if the queen completed the ceremony of "Spring and Muang Man's Worshiping Muang", two first-rank women, one second-rank women, one third-rank women. They were rated by grades of five, nine, twelve mulberry leaves, and ten thousand, and thousands of women rushed back to the altar with the thirty-four mulberry leaves collected. They found another woman to chop the mulberry leaves and feed them to silkworms. The whole long and boring ceremony was over.

Yongfu and Yongchun had been secretly informed by Qiu Ju. The two princesses were secretly happy and prepared early. The large group of people turned to the palace gate. When the women from all walks of life were looking for sedan chairs in front of the palace gate, Yang Ling rushed over with a team of cavalry. He brought a sedan chair and ordered the man to send his wife back to the mansion. Tang Yixian took a sedan chair alone and followed his earthen horse team.

Then Yang Ling came to the princess's carriage, immediately bowed and bowed, and said loudly: "According to the emperor's order, the emperor is going to visit Tangquan, Jizhou, please ask the eldest princess and Princess Yongchun to accompany you."

The two princesses left the palace and took a luxurious and huge eight-carriage carriage. They immediately got out of the sedan chair when they heard this. The two princesses had already changed into complicated palace outfits in the sedan chair. They wore light yellow double-breasted narrow-sleeved silk shirt and close-fitting pleated skirt. The two princesses wore the same clothes, and their bodies were both slender and slender, but they were thin and not exposed. They were so beautiful that they were extremely beautiful.

The light yellow silk dress makes their fair and moist skin look even more gorgeous and tender. Both princesses cannot wear buns before getting married, but the eldest princess Yongfu cleverly matches a cloud bun, which is shaped like a horse-drawn bun tied by a married woman, which is both playful and charming.

Yang Ling waved his hand and carried two light sedan chairs in front of him. The two princesses got on the sedan chair and started their journey. This action had already alarmed the court wife who had not yet dispersed. They were talking for a while, and Yang Ling pretended to be arrogant and looked like a powerful minister who was not scruples, and rode his horse in front of him and stabbed him.

Empress Xia heard the message in front of the palace gate and was about to send someone to ask what happened. Yang Ling had invited two princesses. Three people in the horse team were riding away. Empress Xia was so angry that she turned blue. She brushed her sleeves and didn't care about the princes and wife who were chatting with her and immediately rushed into the palace to complain.

Zhengde's team was waiting outside the city. Yangling's guards arrived in three sedan chairs. First, they asked the two princesses to change to the horse sedan chairs. One of the school students in the crowd was Emperor Zhengde. The two princesses knew that their brother would dress up like this, but they still felt it was fresh when they saw it, and they covered their lips and smiled secretly.

Zhengde glared at them, waved his hand quickly to let them get on the horse sedan chair, and then came to the front of Tang Yixian sedan chair. Zhengde had not seen Tang Yixian for more than ten days, and his expression was quite excited at this time. He saw that Tang Yixian was dressed appropriately, which was the most popular style of ladies in the capital in spring. He had a delicate figure and was charming and seductive, and his eyes were a little straight.

When Tang Yixian heard that there were emperors and two princesses on this trip, he felt a little nervous. However, when he left the sedan chair and saw that the more than ten guards in front of him were all very familiar people who had come back from Datong, he felt relieved. Especially when he saw the handsome and handsome man in the crowd, he looked at her captain Huang foolishly, and he felt sweet in his heart in his joy.

Yang Ling rode his horse forward and ordered: "Start!"

The car was rumbling, and a large group of people rushed to Jizhou.

Princess Yongchun is young and feels bored after being in the car for a while, so she runs into Yongfu car. The two chat in the sedan chair for a while. Yongchun lifts the curtain of the sedan chair, raises his hand to Yang Ling, and says in a sweet voice: "Mr. Yang."

Yang Ling approached the horse and leaned over and asked, "What are the instructions of the princess?"

Yongchun lay at the window and said curiously: "Mr. Yang, the emperor seems to like your cousin very much, but why did he pretend to be a guard? Who did he like? He went to the palace with an edict. It would be not difficult for your cousin to be the imperial concubine."

Yang Ling blinked and smiled, "Because the emperor hopes that Xian'er will really like him, instead of taking the person he likes into the palace as an emperor."

Yongchun looked back at Yongfu for no reason, but the little sisters still couldn't understand. Yang Ling raised his head and saw the birds singing happily on the branches beside the road. He raised his whip and pointed: "Your Highness, look at the pair of birds on the branches. They are together, not because of each other's status and official positions, but just because they like each other.

Because of a noble status, it becomes unimportant for a woman to like her. What is important is whether the person she wants to marry is a good match. If Xian'er has a person who agrees with each other, but that person already has a wife, she cannot marry her in any way with her status. Maybe she will marry someone who is worthy of her in the future, but she does not like her in her heart. Love must submit to the consideration of status.

The emperor issued an edict to enter the palace and become an imperial concubine, which was a glorious thing in the eyes of many people, but for this woman, it was not important whether she liked the emperor. For the emperor, he also relied on supreme power to obtain this woman. He never knew whether this woman really liked him. Isn’t this very sad?"

Yang Ling said solemnly: "Man is the spirit of all things, much nobler than this bird, but the marriage of man and land is mixed with too much utilitarianism and too many other reasons. The emperor likes a fairy and hopes that his cousin will also like him and treats him as a man. Therefore, he pretends to be a humble guard. As an emperor, he could have done things easily, just because he respects love and respects the women he likes. There are several emperors and a few noble figures who can do his actions today? I admire the emperor very much. He is the emperor and a man of true nature!"

The wheels were rumbling, Yongfu behind Yongchun fell into deep thought. Thinking of the princes who had lived in the ten princes' mansion, a sudden burst of sadness suddenly surged in her heart. The princes were looking forward to meeting their husbands every day, but they were obstructed by the palace ministers and housekeepers. But now, they were looking forward to the people by their side who were waiting for each other day and night. How many of them really liked it? But they had no more choices.

Yang Ling said that the sorrow of ordinary women is nothing more than sorrow that they have to succumb to utilitarianism and cannot choose the man they like. What about the royal women? Not only can they not choose the person they like, but even the husband they don’t like must not meet like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. What sorrow is behind the glory of the emperor?

She stroked the soft and noble tribute robes on her body, looked around the gorgeous and incompetent decorations inside the car, and suddenly felt that such a person was the most tragic person in the world. She couldn't help but envy Tang Yixian.

Princess Yongchun put down the curtain of the sedan chair and smiled with a sad feeling: "Sister, no wonder the emperor favored Yang Ling. He heard that he was covered in fog, and his sister was dizzy. Who is worse than a bird? Birds are worse than humans? I think he is not a good bird, hehe."

Yongfu smiled slightly, but even You Xing faded...

Jizhou Royal Hot Spring, the Emperor's Carriage has arrived.

The accompanying people and those who were originally serving in the palace carried the emperor's accompanying items to the various buildings.

The Huangluo umbrella cover from afar moved into a palace with the largest mansion, and then the place was the residence of the two princesses.

Tang Yixian had already got out of the car and looked at the mountains and rivers curiously. Her eyes turned around. Seeing that Zhengde was still staring at her, she couldn't help but spat: "What are you looking at? Idiot!" She said coquettishly, but her cheeks were still a little shy and proud.

Zhengde smiled and said, "The Lord is resettling the residence of the emperor and the princess, and setting up a police officer. Please follow me, Miss. This building is your residence."

Zhengde took Tang Yixian into a small building with carved beams and painted buildings. Tang Yixian looked around and said, "So you are not my cousin's guard. It's amazing to be a big guard at a young age."

Zhengde said proudly: "Of course, don't you see these guards listening to me? Although I am a small lieutenant, the emperor favors me very much."

Tang Yixian curled his lips and said, "Blow you, be careful that the emperor favors you too much, and you will go to the palace to be a eunuch."

Zhengde laughed dryly and was about to answer when he called out in a crisp and sweet voice: "Miss Tang, I want to meet along the way."

With the words, Princess Yongchun jumped in, her face full of tender yellow, her face as beautiful as a flower, and her face was full of cuteness and innocence. Gu Dayong and a few palace maids and eunuchs followed helplessly.

Zhengde glared at her, then stepped forward helplessly and said, "Greetings to Princess Yongchun."

Tang Yixian was startled and quickly bent her knees and wanted to bow. Yongchun had already come over and grabbed her and said with a smile: "No need to bow, no need to bow, Miss Tang is indeed as beautiful as a flower. It's so beautiful in the world, no wonder my emperor... The emperor's brother is on a trip, Lord Yang takes you by his side, he is very pampering."

Zhengde groaned, and Yongchun always worshiped him. Today, this little girl was exposed to Tang Yixian's light and bowed to her. She turned a blind eye to herself. Without asking herself to get up, Zhengde had to say at the top of her voice: "See Your Highness the Princess."

Yongchun looked at him with a narrow smile, then waved his hand and said, "Don't give me a gift, I'll be calm."

She pulled Tang Yixian and sat on Jindun and chatted about family matters. Zhengde glared at Gu Da with a angrily and said to himself: "How come you stupid, why did you bring Yongchun?"

Gu Da rolled his eyes helplessly with his hands, and said to himself: "Come on the princess. How can I, a slave, stop her?"

The two chatted for a while and the eunuchs in the palace had already brought some rare cakes of fruits and cakes. They worked hard all the way and always had to eat something before the meal. Yongchun was not polite, so he took it to share with Tang Yixian.

There was fragrant tea in the silver pot, ginseng soup in the chicken crow jar, and apricot sauce in the cup. Princess Yongchun and Zhengde were the same as snacks. While eating, she smiled and said, "Miss Tang, let's go to the soup spring to take a shower together tonight, and then play the 'leaves show'."

Although Tang Yixian was naughty and Yongchun was very easy to talk to, the first time he saw a noble princess, he was still a little restrained. He just bowed and smiled and said, "Yes. Everything is up to your Highness."

Yongchun lifted the golden bowl and saw the steamed deer breasts inside. He couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise. Zhengde couldn't help laughing dryly when he saw it. You should know that there are rules for eating in the palace. Only the emperor can take deer breasts. This palace has raised a few old deer, and only half of the milk is produced every day. Except for the emperor, even the queen is not allowed to take it. If the emperor has not gone on a tour, he must not use it even if he abandoned it.

This is the rule of the palace, Yongchun naturally knew that she was ignorant when she was young, and her dignified princess cried for a while. Her father fed her a few spoons without permission. She had to ask the daily official not to record it. Now Emperor Zhengde is generous and actually pleases Tang Yixian so much.

Unfortunately, Tang Yixian didn't know the rules at all. Seeing the princess staring at the golden bowl, she thought she liked to eat something like this, so she hurriedly took the silver spoon for her to put it in a jade bowl. Yongchun smiled and took it over and sipped it. Looking at the emperor standing beside him, his face full of pride.

Yang Ling settled the emperor's residence and inquired about the visits in various parts of the mountain. He was about to go to the princess's place to make another move. A large inner guard hurriedly came and said, "Sir, there is a woman in black clothes outside the palace who holds the token of the inner factory. Please see you."

Yang Ling was also a little surprised when he heard this. Where was there a woman in the inner factory? His heart was pounding, and a woman holding an umbrella and holding a skirt, like a woman walking on water suddenly jumped into her heart. Yang Ling hurriedly followed the guard out.

When I arrived at the guard station at the foot of the mountain outside the palace, I saw four horses parked outside. Three were rough and majestic men, and the other was a woman in black clothes. Her figure was also tall, but when compared with these three men, she looked much petite and plump.

As soon as she saw Yang Ling, she came up and bowed: "Maid Chu Ling, please see Lord Yang."

As soon as the woman arrived in front of her, she felt a sweet fragrance in the flower stamens, which was quiet and quiet. She saw her tight sleeves, soft and soft boots, short-sweet figure, and her skin was slightly blue in color by her black clothes, like beautiful mutton fat.

Yang Ling was stunned and said in surprise: "Who is the girl? How can I hold my inner factory token?"

Chu Ling glanced at him with a slight look on her eyes. Although she was slightly angry, her eyebrows were still as beautiful as water. The charm was so beautiful that Cheng Qiyun. Yang Ling suddenly realized it. Before she could explain it, she smiled happily and said, "You are... you are the girl next to Cheng's stubborn!"

Chu Ling smiled sweetly and said, "It's the maid, the lady wants me to bring news to the adults."

Yang Ling was happy and said hurriedly: "This is not a place to speak, please follow me."

Not far from the door, the guards were stationed in the camp and built several houses. Yang Ling took her into a quiet room. He asked quickly, "Miss Cheng, can everything be done?"

Chu Lingyanran said: "I will be in good faith, and everything is fine for you. And the lady also instructed... Another major event that the adult is very concerned about has been arranged and will never make any mistakes. Please rest assured."

Yang Ling's face turned red and he quickly changed the topic and said, "Miss Cheng sent you here, but are everything ready?"

Chu Ling said: "Yes, the special envoy of King Wenyi of Japan has arrived secretly. The lady is accompanying them all the way to the capital. The maid takes one step ahead. It is estimated that the lady can arrive in the capital within five days."

Emperor Wen Ya of Japan has been in power for four years. Last year, he changed his year number to Yongzheng. The news of the Central Plains is blocked and he still used to call him Wen Ya. Yang Ling was stunned for a moment. Emperor Wen Ya's special envoy Cheng Qiyun was so careful that she didn't even know the truth. But it makes sense that she was so careful. This is a great sin. If one person is less, it will be safer.

When Yang Ling thought of this, he responded vaguely: "It's great. When you go back, you tell Miss Cheng and ask her to stay in Tongzhou for a while. When I attack and defend until the last moment, I will ask Miss Cheng to set off in Beijing, highlight the surprise troops, and decide the outcome in one battle."

Chu Ling said: "Yes. When my maid came, the lady told me that the two capitals were far apart, and it was difficult to understand the situation in the capital recently. The lady didn't know what the situation was going to be raised by the adults. Please tell me a little bit. I'd better know what the maid replied to the lady, so I'd like to know what was going on."

Yang Ling walked with his hands behind his back. After pondering for a moment, he smiled and said, "All things should be done. Two days later, I will return to Beijing and immediately ask the emperor to convene a 'big court meeting' and mobilize the officials to write a letter to the court, requesting the lifting of the sea ban."

Seeing Chu Ling hesitating, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Miss Chu Ling, I heard from Miss Cheng that you and the two of you have learned military books with her. I'll ask you. If you and I lead the troops to attack, you have four major dangers to defend. One of them has been quietly taken down by me, and even if there is a loophole in the defense line, the power of division of troops is weakened, and it is very likely that I will conquer them one by one. If it were you, what would you do?"

Chu Ling raised her eyebrows and said, "This is simple. Since I am the defender and have already had a disadvantage and have loopholes in the defense line, I will take the initiative to abandon other passes and gather troops in the most dangerous place, stalemate each other and make the final battle."

Yang Ling praised: "That's right, but the reason why this most dangerous level is difficult to attack is that you have natural dangers to defend, either a mountain that cannot be climbed thousands of feet high, or a huge wave that surmounts the river. But if suddenly, this natural danger becomes a flat river, so what?"

Chu Ling smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, it's not talking about military tactics, but it's like fighting two gods. If this happens, then I'll gather troops together, just concentrate the troops and wait for you to slaughter. Instead, it's better to divide the troops and guard them and delay more time."

Yang Ling smiled and said, "So you reply to be a girl, just worry. This official will show the enemy as weak in front of this pass, let them regard this place as the only dangerous thing to rely on, and concentrate all the opposition forces on this point. By then, your surprise troops will emerge and the natural danger will become a smooth road. They will have to be defeated and have no power to resist. Do you understand?"

Chu Ling shook her head and said frankly: "I don't understand."

Yang Ling laughed and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand. You will reply to the girl as a real person. She will naturally understand after hearing this."

Chu Ling covered her mouth and said, "Miss asked me to tell the adult that the extremely important matter had been arranged. At that time, the maid didn't understand. The lady also said that she just had to reply to the adult as it was true. The adult would understand after hearing this, but she didn't expect that the adult and my lady would have the same tone."

She chuckled and said, "Then the maid returns. Finally, there is a message to me. My lady said that on the day she entered Beijing, she would give a gift to the adults. The adults would be very happy when they saw it."

Yang Lingqi said: "What gift is so important?"

Chu Ling smiled and said, "I don't understand. My lady said, "You can say this or not. If the adult says something that the maid doesn't understand, then you might as well say it out loud and let it not understand, haha."
