Chapter five hundred and eighty sixth

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 in the red dress had a festive smile on his face, looking up at the top, their tall temples were like clouds and peach blossoms, and their long red sleeves were swung up together, and suddenly a morning glow seemed to land on the platform, gorgeous and beautiful.

The skills of dancers are actually not very good. The Tokyo court singing and dancing seem to have no 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, and these have no motivation to develop. The court singing girls are mainly performed for the emperor and princes. Now the imperial court sect has been cancelled, 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 silk skirts came over from the side in small 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 bent her knees 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 the roasted lamb made in the palace, so the slaves and others came here to present it."

"Okay, OK." Guo Shao nodded and praised twice.

He immediately lifted up his chopsticks and said, "Let the ministers try it too."

"Sister obeys 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, he really wanted to eat something delicious. Human desires were actually very simple, but now they were easily satisfied.

He picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth. The skin was crispy and the meat was delicious. After chewing it for a few times, he was covered in oil. On such a lively occasion, he didn't taste it carefully. It felt okay after eating a few pieces. His attention could not be focused on one point. The newly changed dancer was dressed very attractively, and Guo Shao couldn't help but take a few more glances.

The women were wearing purple light dresses and strapless breasts, half-exposed, and swaying in front of Guo Shao, making him feel a sense of heat. He hadn't been close to women for a long time on the front line. Although Jing Niang was by her side, Guo Shao could not ask her to serve her at will... It was 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 just like people were watching the lights, and all kinds of emotions were floating up and down. Although he was socializing properly 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 with the army, some saddles, ribbons, gold and silver, etc., and waited for the people to thank them, and then it ended.

Guo Shao returned to the study of 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 submissions, the stacks of documents also included 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 was really unable to calm down and threw them aside. He just wanted to calm down for a while now... This impetuous mood was like after the family had just finished doing a wedding and white business 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. A large number of officials and eunuchs and palace maids in the Imperial City also regard the emperor’s daily life as a place of work. In the era of family, country and world, the royal family is indeed not just a family, but also a country!

Guo Shao has never lived in a high-ranking environment in both lifetimes. At this time, he had a sense: the bigger the family business, the more the family members and relatives are actually a resource allocation relationship, especially the royal family, where almost everyone is active around this matter.

In the bustling center of Tokyo Imperial City, Guo Shao suddenly felt a little lonely. No wonder the ancient kings all called themselves "Wimen".

Guo Shao put down the file in his hand, stood up and walked towards the lounge behind. The eunuch Cao Tai, who was on duty, followed in. Guo Shao 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 not seen her after he came back. He suddenly remembered something, that is, 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 to be not suitable for such occasions.

Guo Shao paced back and forth in the fragrance of iris for a few steps, then turned to Cao Tai and said, "Prepare the car, I want to go to Zide Hall to meet Empress Duanci."

"I 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, but 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 in a hurry to come to meet, and she looked very surprised.

Guo Shao bowed his hand slightly and said, "The Imperial Guard returned to Beijing this morning. Once he came back, he had a lot of things. He has only now left to ask the emperor's sister-in-law for good care. Please don't blame me."

On both sides and behind Fu Jinzhan, a woman in a round-necked and purple robes stood. 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 things first. I can understand. I thought it would take a few days to see Your Majesty, but you would be so kind." She smiled again, "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 Order 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, took the opportunity to take the opportunity to look at Fu Jinzhan a few times. Generally speaking, he could not stare at Fu Jinzhan according to etiquette. This is called not to look at him inappropriately, and 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 were very polite and rules, but people’s hearts were not restricted by rules. In the etiquette, Guo Shao swept his eyes across Fu Jinzang’s chest, and under the cover, he paid attention to 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 subject of attention, 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."

"I'm worried about the emperor's sister-in-law." Guo Shao said.

"There are a few things..." Fu Jinzhan pretended to be willing to speak but stopped, so she looked at her side slightly. The women around her knelt and then retreated from the open hall one after another.

Soon, Guo Shao and Fu Jinzhan were left to get along 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 it, so as not to give people a "misunderstanding".

After all, their rumors have been circulated in the past, which is too easy for people to suspect.

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 looked at each other silently. They met again after a long separation, but they could only do this.

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 wide, with a double-eaved palace and a brick and stone road. People come and go on the road, but they are very popular, but not noisy (no one dares to make noise near the main hall). Tokyo, the Imperial City is also one of the most prosperous and luxurious places of this era, as if the center of the world;); such places without a sense of 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 restlessness that was floating in the shallow part had dissipated, and he had returned to peace and tranquility. All this was just a short time.

Guo Shao looked at Fu Jinzhan's face, bright eyes and white teeth, smooth lips, and his white skin was shining with a goose yellow luster. It was the color of the bright sunshine outside. She was beautiful, but very decent and dignified, especially the smile like moonlight made Guo Shao's heart full of joy and sunshine, and various negative emotions dissipated with the wind.

"What a happy afternoon. It's a great time to see the jindangs." Guo Shao said gently.

Fu Jinzan said in a joking tone in a tactful tone: "Even if I haven't seen me, there are still many people waiting for you to see me. I'm afraid that those people are no worse than me."
