Chapter 595: Does your word work?

Views:

Zixuan nodded: "Okay! Jiangnan is such a beautiful place, who wouldn't want to go! You know that a long time ago, there was a northern monarch who decided to invade Jiangnan just because he heard a poem praising Jiangnan?"

There is such a story? Why can't Yan Li remember

"Zixuan, tell me, is it that stupid monarch who went to war against Jiangnan just because of a poem?"

Zixuan smiled: "Why doesn't the emperor know! Listen to me singing slowly!"

Then, Zixuan sang a poem "Watching the Sea Tide": "The southeast is prosperous, the three Wu cities, Qiantang has been prosperous since ancient times..." When he sang, "There are three autumn osmanthus and ten miles of lotus", Yan Li couldn't help clapping Come on.

"I see, you are singing Liu Yong's "Looking at the Tide of the Sea."

Zixuan smiled: "Since the emperor knows that I am singing "Wang Haichao", do you know that what I just said is not false?"

Yan Li nodded: "The regent of the Jin Dynasty back then sent troops to invade the Song Dynasty just because he heard Liu Yong's "Wang Haichao". If Zixuan hadn't said it, I really can't remember such an allusion."

Zixuan's eyes were full of thoughts: "Jiangnan has outstanding people and beautiful scenery, but the smell of fat and powder is too strong. It is fine for the emperor to go there, but don't be infected by the smell of fat and powder there."

Throughout the ages, many dynasties ended up with their families ruined because the last emperor indulged in pleasure, was too fat, and forgot about border troubles.

Yan Li naturally understood what Zixuan meant, telling him not to be a fatuous and fat emperor, otherwise, the entire Dajing Kingdom might be destroyed in his hands.

"I will keep in mind the words of Concubine Zixuan, and I must be strict with myself, so as not to let my body get dirty."

Zixuan knelt on the ground and shouted long live: "If the emperor can do this, then the country will definitely be able to wait for prosperity, and become a prosperous and powerful country that everyone yearns for."

Yan Li stretched out his hand to lift Zixuan up: "If there is such a day, it will definitely be inseparable from the concubine's contribution. In my eyes, you and the queen are my right-hand men, assisting me to manage the world and achieve greatness!"

Then, the two talked about going to the south of the Yangtze River, and Yan Li left Fengwu Palace on the grounds that the state affairs were in a hurry.

Zixuan knew that Yan Li was going to Rong Chang'an.

Zixuan was not jealous either, she felt that Yan Li was overjoyed to come to Fengwu Palace frequently, so how could she have any more unreasonable thoughts.

Just as Yan Li left Fengwu Palace, a lantern flickered in from outside the palace. Zixuan thought it was Yan Li who had left and came back, so she hurried out of the dormitory to look around.

"Your majesty, why do you..."

Under the lantern, seeing Zi Yan's smiling face, Zi Xuan was startled, her face was flushed, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Yes...it's you, sister Ziyan."

Zi Yan's sharp gaze sized Zi Xuan up: "I see my sister's words, it seems that I'm not very welcome here! If that's the case, then I'd better go back."

With that said, he turned to leave. Zixuan grabbed her hand, shyly.

"Sister Guifei, what are you talking about! How can I not welcome you! Come on, sit inside!"

But Ziyan grabbed Zixuan's hand: "Okay, I'm just kidding you! I won't go sit in your room today, why don't we go for a walk in the imperial garden?"

Zixuan looked at the light rain in the sky, and it was dusk, so she didn't want to go out.

"Sister, don't you see it's raining?"

Zi Yan said: "It's because of the rain that I have to go out! It's misty and rainy, so there is a mood, don't you think?"

Zixuan grew up in Tianchi Country since she was a child. She grew up in the prairie. There are endless grasslands, forests and snow-capped mountains. If it is misty and rainy, Tianchi Country is really rare.

"Since my sister is so emotional, my sister will accompany her for a walk."

Zixuan ordered Lan'er to carry a lantern, and ordered a maidservant to hold an umbrella. Taking advantage of the night, Zixuan and Ziyan came to the imperial garden and sat down in an octagonal glazed pavilion.

The rain was dripping outside.

Zi Yan looked at the rain and even lamented again and again.

Zixuan knew that she had something in her stomach, so she asked: "My sister told me to come out, and she didn't speak, just sighed at the light rain outside. I don't know why? My sister has been kind to me, and let me win the emperor's favor. I am no longer alone. How can Zixuan forget this kindness and virtue! If my sister has any unspeakable secrets, she can tell me. Where I can help my sister, my sister must be duty-bound."

Ziyan held Zixuan's hand, she was very grateful: "I found a sister like you in the palace, it is really worthwhile in my life. To be honest, my sister really has something on her mind, but I don't know whether I should tell you or not. .”

Zixuan hurriedly said: "Since there is something, why don't you tell me? Don't you think I'm your sister?"

The corner of Zi Yan's mouth curled up into a smile: "Since my sister wants to know, I will tell you with all my heart." Suddenly, her face was full again, "Do you know why I lamented this misty rain?"

Zixuan shook her head: "If you know, then don't ask my sister."

Zi Yan said: "I heard from the gossip that the emperor is going to tour the south of the Yangtze River in a few days, I wonder if there is such a thing?"

Zixuan was taken aback: "I just found out too, how did my sister know?"

Yan Li has been preparing to go to Jiangnan these days, so Zi Yan knows. Zixuan never leaves home, how would she know!

Ziyan wiped the same Zixuan: I'm not as stupid as you, I don't even know if there is trouble outside!

"My sister just heard about it from the maidservants and eunuchs. This time the emperor went to Jiangnan, and he didn't want to take me there at all. I have always been yearning for Jiangnan. I wish I could step over to the West Lake and see the ten miles of lotus flowers in three autumns." Guizi. But... but the emperor ignored me and didn't put me on the list to go to the south of the Yangtze River! This makes my sister so sad!"

Zixuan was also a little bit sorry: "The emperor asked me to go with me just now! Why didn't he call Sister Ziyan? Perhaps, he announced the final list later."

Zi Yan curled her lips. This time, Rong Chang'an was among the people who accompanied Yan Li to Jiangnan, and Rong Chang'an was there, why would Yan Li call her? Everyone knows that Ziyan and Rong Changan are incompatible!

Ziyan turned her face away and cried: "Don't comfort me, the emperor will not ask me to go to the south of the Yangtze River together. Maybe this will be the regret of my life! As the noble concubine of the Dajing Kingdom, I stopped in the palace and couldn't go to the south of the Yangtze River. Where I want to go. It's so sad!"

Zixuan lowered her eyes and thought for a while. In the palace, like a bird in an iron cage.

Zi Yan is no longer favored by Yan Li, and her life is meaningless in some respects. Zixuan understood Ziyan's psychology very well, so after hearing Ziyan's hypocritical narration, her heart softened.

"My sister really wants to go to Jiangnan for a walk?"

Zi Yan rubbed the corner of her eyes: "That is my long-cherished wish, why don't I want to go! I just wish I didn't have that life, so I can't go."

Zixuan thought for a while; "I think, if I plead for my sister, the emperor will agree to you, right?"

Ziyan's eyeballs rolled around: "Will your words work?"

Zixuan said seriously: "I will try my best to persuade the emperor to let you go. I think the emperor is reasonable and will let you go."

Zixuan didn't know that the person Ziyan was most worried about was not Yan Li, but Rong Chang'an. Rong Changan hated her so much, why would he let her go to Jiangnan
