Princess and the General

Dongling's convoy arrived in Beijing at the end of February.

The emperor and his party were on board. They came to Beijing to accept the new gift, and they were no longer the empress.

Coming this way towards the capital, their hearts are embarrassed. Although they will most likely receive preferential treatment when they take the initiative to dedicate themselves, they are not sure whether the Beili Dynasty will treat them for a moment.

The artificial knife stabbed me as fish, and Ning Chengzhi did not dare to guarantee what would happen next.

After his honor guard left Lin'an, many things were not planned.

Compared with him, the concubine, who has long been named the queen, is cheerful.

She and Ning Chengzhi were in a carriage together. When they reached the boundary of Beili, they always pulled out their curtains and looked out. They were very interested in Beili's customs.

Ning Chengzhi was a little displeased. "How do you look like this, your grandmother?"

After saying this, I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart.

He is no longer an emperor, and naturally Li Guifei is no longer an empress.

But she cheerfully said, "What's wrong with your Majesty? My grandmother, afraid of being seen by ordinary people? Not to mention that Beili people don't care about this. Chen Ye heard that there are many ladies this spring. Women can go What happened to the ministers when they took part in the imperial examinations? "

Ning Chengzhi listened, too. They have now left Dongling, and they naturally follow the customs.

But is the scenery outside this car so beautiful?

He thought about it, leaned over and followed Li Guifei's sight, and Li Guiyuan gave a generous place to him, taking a sip on his face.

Ning Chengzhi froze, and unconsciously let out a smile.

He looked out of the car window, and saw that in the early spring season, the fields were green and tender, and the farmers were carrying their homes to plant fields in the fields.

There were children nesting in the paddy field playing mud, and their faces were all covered with black mud. The woman stood on the ridge of the field and took out the kettle, and brought it to her husband who was transplanting rice.

She gently took out a handkerchief and wiped her husband's sweat from her forehead. The husband smiled and spoke a few words to her. She crouched down and wiped the child's face again.

What a delightful farmhouse scene.

Ning Chengzhi said: "I heard that after the battle between Beili and Sangyi, not only did the national strength decline, but also increased the tax by 40% to put pressure on the people. Hey me, how can I see that these people have no signs of boring life?"

Li Guifei laughed: "Why don't the people talk about life? Chen Xun heard that the female emperor had been in power for three years. In addition to amnesty when she first ascended the throne, the next two years were also frivolous. The people have more benefits. Can't afford it anywhere? "

Ning Chengzhi couldn't help but be surprised, "Do you know these?"

He always felt that Concubine Li would only eat, drink, and play blindly. She had been named the queen at first, but because she was the last person with true feelings around her.

Unexpectedly, her queen position is gone now, but she has grown up.

Princess Li raised her head proudly, "Of course. I didn't know anything in the palace before, it was because of Her Majesty. Now"

She looked dull, and even Ning Chengzhi was not comfortable.

Yeah, now that they are going to send people under the fence to see how others look, how can they be as unscrupulous as before?

Li Guifei continued to laugh quickly. "Now Chen Yi wants to support her Majesty, how can she not learn more and listen to it? As soon as she was out of Lin'an, Chen Yi discovered it. It was placed in the ten major towns of Beili. Not like the people outside Lin'an. "

Ning Chengzhi went all the way, not paying attention to the scene outside the car window, and said, "How is it different?"

"Most of the people outside Lin'an City are wearing ragged shirts. They want to plant rice in the field because they are worried about soiling, so they don't wear clothes. They are also mostly sad. There is too much work in it. "

"The people of Beili are different. Even the clothes that they transplanted are neat and tidy. You can see what kind of good clothes they are wearing when they visit the gate at sunrise. Your majesty just saw the child sitting in the muddy field?"

Ning Chengzhi nodded, "I see, it is a lively child."

Li Guifei solemnly said: "I thought about it. If I work hard and my child is dirty there, I will definitely be furious. After all, there is no maid to help the child wash clothes, and no grandmother hugs. When the child goes down to coax, everything must be done by the peasant woman herself, can't she be furious? "

Ning Chengzhi thought about it and suddenly understood, "You mean, the peasant woman looks smiling and not angry at all because her life is good. She doesn't have to work in the field, so she goes home to do the laundry Do n’t feel hard, is that so? ”

"probably."

She has just learned to pay attention to the people's livelihood and is not quite sure what she observes is right or wrong.

But one thing is certain, even though the people of Beili have experienced terrible wars, they are much more comfortable than Dongling's people.

This is what people want, and the trend is inevitable.

Ning Chengzhi nodded thoughtfully, wondering what he was worried about, and lowered his head silently.

Concubine Li was displeased when she saw him talking and said, "What's wrong with your Majesty?"

"I'm not your Majesty anymore."

The document sent to Beijing Chengtoucheng wrote that he was willing to depreciate himself, and bowed his head to Beili, but the outcome would not be what he said.

He was very worried about his future situation.

Concubine paused, "Nuffon?"

puff.

Ning Chengzhi almost didn't hold his expression. He meant to worry about his identity, but Li Guifei thought of the title problem.

Sure enough, her mind is still so simple.

He said helplessly: "I mean 意思, forget it."

Let her be so happy, let's count day by day, tell the women to solve those troubles, what kind of man?

Although he is no longer emperor, he is still at least a man and a pillar of women around him.

Ceremony went all the way to the capital, and when she saw the gates of the magnificent capital in the distance, the mouth of Li Guifei opened a circle.

She thought that the most magnificent city wall in the world must be the city wall of Lin'an. When she saw the capital, she found out what a little witch sees a big witch.

This was the capital of the emperor Da Zhou, and it is completely different from Lin'an, a place with a short history of capital construction.

Ning Chengzhi's heart was cold, facing the scenery of the capital, he felt ashamed.

No wonder Yufu didn't look down on him at first. She really didn't care about the identity of the Emperor Dongling. Beili didn't know how much better than Dongling.

When approaching the city gate, they saw a team of people in official uniforms looking forward to it. Li Guifei saw it from the gap of the curtain and called Ning Chengzhi busy.

Ning Chengzhi saw the acquaintance at a glance.

That headed official is not the envoy who has been to Dongling with Yufu before. What's right, it's Chen Jingxing!

He personally greeted outside the city, showing great importance.

He got out of the car, reached out to help the concubine down, and saw Chen Jingxing bring a group of officials up, arching his hands, his attitude was not humble.

Ning Chengzhi was relieved at the sight of him.

Thinking that when he was the Emperor Dongling at that time, Chen Jingxing did not treat himself better than he is now, which shows that he is not deliberately neglecting.

After meeting each other, Chen Jingxing laughed and said, "Xiaguan and Ning Emperor are quite destined, this is the second time they have met."

Ning Chengzhi nodded and said, "Yeah, if I remember correctly, you are the secretary of Hongli Temple of Beili. When you went to Dongling for a mission, the style was outstanding and it is still impressive."

Chen Jingxing did not show his pride in his deliberate touting, and did not show his uncle's expression, but only said: "The prize has been passed. His Majesty sent me to wait for the two, please stay in the inn temporarily, and see you in the palace on another day." "

Ning Chengzhi hesitated when he heard this.

What he was most afraid of was seeing him in the palace on another date. I heard that Prince Kunxi of the West Kun Dynasty was trapped in the post hall and killed by Kun Wu.

He came to Beijing thousands of miles away, wasn't he just to see Yufu, and got a piece of paper that was not a low gift?

If you get stuck in the post

He couldn't help shivering, thinking about how to speak to Chen Jingxing.

Chen Jingxing seemed to perceive his thoughts and laughed: "Ningdi don't have to worry. Your Majesty is pregnant for eight or nine months, and his body is inconvenient. Naturally, I can't see the guests anytime. Besides, because of the customs of Beili, the minister came far away. It is not advisable to face holy, so as not to travel too long and get sick from soil and water discomfort. "

What else Ning Chengzhi wanted to say, Concubine Li stepped forward, "Yes, husband, let's listen to Mr. Chen and go back to the post hall to rest. Your Majesty and Mr. Chen have a good intention, should we fail?"

Saying thanks directly to Chen Jingxing, "Thank you, Master Chen."

Chen Jingxing nodded slightly and asked him to get on the carriage. "Two please."

Back on the carriage, all the way into the city through the long street, Li Guifei still only looked outside the carriage, very happy about the bustling prosperity of the capital.

She followed the **** soldiers outside the carriage and said, "The capital is really prosperous. Please ask Master Chen for me. Can we go out after we return to the post hall?"

The soldier nodded at her first, then said, "Mrs. Please, the visitor is a guest. Naturally, there is no reason why he cannot go out."

Concubine Li narrowed her eyes with this smile.

The soldier didn't even go and sue Chen Jingxing and answered directly that she could go out. She was immediately satisfied and lowered the curtain of the carriage.

Ning Chengzhi gave her a glance when she saw this. She said, "Father, if you don't feel tired at night, let's go out. I see there are many red lights hanging on both sides of the long street. It must be lively at night."

Ning Chengzhi said, "Can you come out?"

"Yes, I asked."

Li Guifei attached to his ear and said something like this, and Ning Chengzhi suddenly flashed in front of her. "What you said makes sense, it seems nothing will happen."

Li Guifei whispered: "If you don't worry, I'll ask Master Chen when I arrive at the post hall."

The honor guard stopped in front of the post hall, and Chen Jingxing escorted him in. Ning Chengzhi said, "Master Chen has worked hard. Why not go in for a cup of tea?"

Chen Jingxing said: "The two will not be disturbed."

Ning Chengzhi's mind moved, pretending to be inadvertent: "Yes, we are new to Beijing. I don't know where to go here. It is better to go to the countryside and learn more about local customs."

After hearing this, Chen Jingxing felt sensible. Emperor Ning, who had acted arbitrarily in the past, now knows that he can go to the countryside and follow the rules, and he has made progress.

He thought for a while: "The capital city is bustling, and it is recommended that the two can rest during the day and have enough rest before going out to stroll in the evening. The law and order of the capital city is very good. There is no housekeeping at night and no curfew at night. .Only along this long street, there should be restaurants, tea houses, jewelry and clothes. The two can go to understand the food and fashion of the capital. It's just-- "

Ning Chengzhi listened to the very detailed introduction before him, and his heart was rejoicing. He didn't want him to say anything more.

"It's nothing?"

Various thoughts were flying in his mind.

For example, they should not be allowed to contact and talk with outsiders. For example, they should be asked to go out to bring soldiers with Beili, named Protective Surveillance, and for example, let them go out as little as possible.

He thought of countless possibilities, but saw Chen Jingxing frown slightly, some worried and said, "It's just that there are many delicious food in Beijing. The two of them should be more restrained and stop eating."

"Your Majesty didn't know. They only went to the capital the day before yesterday. They went shopping at night. People in the posthouse said that when they came back, they were filled with various snacks and jewelry boxes, and their stomachs were round."

After two days, the people of Hongdai Temple told Yufuyu that Ning Chengzhi and his party were moving. The expression of Shaoqing of Hongdai Temple who wanted to laugh and had to hold back, made Yufu want to laugh.

She reluctantly said, "Is it so funny? Just laugh if you want to laugh, it doesn't count as your mischief."

"Hahaha! Dishonored, disobedient!"

The little Qing laughed and burst into tears, and laughed and said that he was guilty of guilt. Yufu couldn't help but imagine what he said. Does Ning Chengzhi have such a long-term mind?

Chen Jingxing glanced back at his subordinates. Yu Fu thought he would stop with a serious face. He did not expect to turn his head and smiled.

"Your Majesty, it's not just the night that I came. The people in the post hall said that they go out every day, and sometimes they want to go to some scenic spots far away, but also let the post people lead the way to accompany them. It's nothing like surrender. "

"Yeah yeah."

Master Shaoqing continued to sneer, "Master Chen said that day, let them go out and refrain from eating. Someone asked the doctor to go there today, saying that Ningdi accumulated food and could not digest it. Your Majesty, you said it was ridiculous Laugh, hahaha! "

Yu Fuqiang smiled, "Can it be cured now?"

Chen Jingxing smiled and shook his head, "Healed, Ning Di said to walk more to help digestion. So he drank medicine and took his wife to shop in the hotel. His wife knew how to buy jewelry and clothes, and many shops in Beijing were discussing I thought it was such a magnificent lady who was newly married by a high-ranking family. "

Yufu heard this and waved them to stop talking.

Besides, she was afraid that she would lose herself in front of the courtier.

After a while she calmed down and said, "Since they are so happy, they will send someone to play with them, and I won't hurry to see them."

Chen Jingxing Road: "Nashin will arrange the people of Hongdai Temple"

"Do not."

Yufu thought for a while, and had a nasty taste: "Let Kunwu hurt to accompany them, anyway, his perfume shop also needs a rich lady to be a buyer, doesn't it?"

Kun Wu has already successfully transitioned from a political career to a business career. His shop business is very good, and now he has opened a second branch.

If it wasn't for the Ning Chengzhi couple's money to be a big buyer, he would be too lazy to accompany them.

Ning Chengzhi had seen Kun Wu injured. When Yu Fu sent him to play with him, he was scared.

Didn't Kun Junji be killed in this posthouse?

The couple, who had been happy for two or three days, immediately became worried again. Kun Wu comforted them instead, "Do you know why your Majesty sent me to play with you?"

"do not know."

Kunwu's leg was raised, "Because my today is most likely your tomorrow. Don't think that the book has been derogated to Hou or anything, Your Majesty can really seal a Hou for you, and if Hou takes you, What to do when the soldiers revolt? "

"Besides, what's so bad about me? There is a big house, there is money, no one dares to eat, drink, and drink, and you can rely on knowing the people in the Middle East for profit. Life is too comfortable!"

The former Emperor Xi Kun taught the former Emperor Dongling. The former Empress Dongling was bored. She only left when she heard that there was a big house and silver, and went back to her house to try jewelry.

Beili's clothes and jewelry are really beautiful. In a classic atmosphere, even ordinary women on the streets are very beautifully dressed. She must not lose to others.

I don't know what the two former emperors exchanged. After two full hours, Ning Chengzhi came to knock on her door. "Let's go out, Kun Wu hurts, please go to his balm shop."

"Balm?"

Immediately, Li Guifei brightened, "Come here! Come here!"
