The next day, Mu Hanzhang woke up in Jing Shao's arms, warm breath spraying between his neck, a slender leg resting on top of himself, pressing one leg a little numb.
Uncomfortably moving, the person holding him then slowly woke up, lightly exhaling, "Jun Qing ......" a confused call with a lazy nasal sound.
"Well, it's time to get up." Mu Hanzhang moved again, but unexpectedly, the person holding him did not let go, but instead hugged him into his arms again.
"It's not like I have to go to court, what's the hurry." Jing Shao buried his face into the person in his arms and rubbed it.
"Didn't Your Highness have an appointment with Lord Li today?" Mu Hanzhang wanted to say that the concubine had come to ask for peace after breakfast, so what if she saw the two of them still in bed.
Jing Shao reluctantly dawdled for a while longer before getting up, after he started to conquer San Fan in his last life, he basically didn't have much chance to sleep in such a relaxing manner, and even less so when he got into the prison, there were only cold lapis lazuli boards and dirty hay. So, he found himself becoming more and more paranoid of warm and clean things now.
Look at elegantly put on the coat of Mu Hanzhang, today that a snow-white coat, so that his whole person looks untainted. Jing Shao with one hand on his head, lying on his side on the bed to see a ray of sunlight on the skylight shining on the person who looks like an immortal, thinking in a trance, this person is probably the warmest and cleanest existence in this world!
The appointment with Li Yanqing was at noon, so after breakfast Jing Shao was not in a hurry to go out, sitting on the Luohan bed to accompany his wife to drink tea.
"Madam and the two aunts have come to greet you." Zhi Ruoxi came in to report.
After Mu Hanzhang nodded, Song Lingxin and the two concubines walked in and saluted the crown princess. Seeing that Jing Shao was also there, she naturally bowed to him first.
Yeonji Ryu was slightly slower than the others in getting up, and seemed to be in some discomfort as she fell forward with a wobble.
Mu Hanyang subconsciously reached out to pick it up, but she did not expect Jing Shao to react faster and yank her up, jokingly, she was going to fall into Jun Qing's arms with this fall!
"Your Highness ......," Yan Ji raised a pair of Ying Ying's autumn water eyes to look at Jing Shao, "My concubine's body is not feeling well, and I have bumped into you."
Mu Hanzhang's outstretched hand turned a corner and picked up the cup on the table and took a sip, as if he hadn't seen anything.
Jing Shao frowned, obviously did not see the meaning of autumn water in those beautiful eyes, Yan Ji's fall made him remember that in his previous life, she seemed to be in the garden a fall into his arms, and then he realized that she had an extraordinary appearance, and was very pampered for a period of time, and as a result, when the royal family suffered a disaster, this woman mysteriously disappeared. Now I think, she is the big prince sent, then, when the evidence of those crimes certainly have her a credit.
Yan Ji saw that the king had been staring at herself, she couldn't help but be secretly happy in her heart, on her face she still had a weak look on her face, looking at Song Ling Xin secretly gritting her teeth, this fox charming child!
Li looked at the situation, rolled her eyes, and backed away to stand without saying anything.
"Wangfei, yesterday concubine mentioned that matter ......" Song Lingxin stepped forward and broke the somewhat strange atmosphere in the room.
"It has been handed over to Duo Fu," Mu Hanzhang lowered his eyes, blew the tea froth on the surface, and lightly sipped a mouthful of hot tea, "I have discussed with the king, you are still in charge of this month's affairs, and on the second day of the next month, you will hand over all of the account books in your hands to me."
The smile on Song Lingxin's face instantly froze, and she turned her eyes to Jing Shao, who just turned her head to look at Mu Huanzhang: "Then won't you be busy next month?"
"There are many things to do, if the crown princess wants to take over next month, I'm afraid she'll be busy for a long time in a row." Seeing Jing Shao interjecting, Song's eyes lit up with hope again, and she busily followed suit.
"Since it's a bit busier than now, I don't have much to do around here." Mu Hanzhang said to Jing Shao.
"Then while there's nothing to do this month, I'll take you out for a few days." Jing Shao frowned, and didn't say much between the presence of his concubines.
Song Lingxin's smile became even more rigid, her face was a little green, and she took the two concubines and retreated. Out the door, ruthlessly tugging at the handkerchief in her hand, the two concubines glanced at each other, Li stepped forward and said, "The flower tea I drank at sister's place the day before yesterday, I've been thinking about it all along."
Song Lingxin glanced at them, she used to think that these two women were an eyesore, but now that there was a formidable enemy, these two would have to fight their way to her side first. So, after a few polite words, he invited the two of them to the small flower hall to drink tea.
"A man, getting involved in what inner house feeds, doesn't feel ashamed of the readers!" In the small flower hall, Song Lingxin knocked her cup heavily on the table.
"He's gaining favor nowadays, sister is afraid that she won't be able to compete with him." Yan Ji squinted a pair of fox eyes, her flavorful appearance was far from her previous delicate and incompetent appearance.
"But I've heard that the prince stayed in the East Garden for these two days but did nothing," Li smiled, "He fell ill on the second day of the wedding, and I heard that he was not badly hurt. Moreover, in my concubine's opinion, there must be some kind of agreement between him and His Highness."
"What does this say?" Song Lingxin came down in spirit this time, Li was on good terms with those maids, and the people in the king's house would hand her news.
"I heard that when I drank the medicine that day, the crown princess and the prince had a fight in the house and said something about a letter of repudiation." Li spoke confidently about the news she had inquired about.
"In that case, the king is planning to find a suitable opportunity so that he can retire him?" Yeonji added a handful of firewood at the right time.
"Hmph, if that's the case, once he holds the center feed, it will be easier to find a reason to repudiate him." Song Ling Xin's face reappeared with a smile, so this month's time, she would make good use of it and leave a "perfect" stall for the princess!
And the king, who was missed by a group of virtuous concubines, was glued to his royal consort's side watching others paint.
"Why did Your Highness still have to run out for yesterday's martial arts practice?" Mu Hanzhang saw him looking straight at himself and found a topic to chat with him.
"Looking for a fight," Jing Shao plopped down on the table, curious about the tip of his deft brush, "What are you drawing?"
"A birthday drawing," the wolfsbane between his fingers traveled across the rice paper, "it's my father's birthday next month."
"I didn't let him dabble in salt introduction last time, I sent him to the northwest to deal in horses." Jing Shao remembered the last time he returned to the door and told him in passing.
"Horse trading?" Mu Hanzhang's brush tip lurched, and a black dot was added to the southern mountain stone, and he was busy adding a few strokes to draw it as moss.
"Well," there are some things that can't be said right now, so Jing Shao doesn't intend to explain more, getting up and picking up a pen, "where's the trouble in drawing a birthday wish, I'll draw one for you."
Mu Hanzhang laid out a piece of paper for him to see what he was going to draw. Only to see Jing Shao lifting his breath and waving his brush, swish a few strokes down, an ugly turtle jumped onto the paper.
"This ......" Mu Hanzhang's mouth twitched, "is this a birthday picture?"
"Thousand year old wangba ten thousand year old turtle, isn't this a birthday wishing picture?" Jing Shao was smug.
"Pfft~" although it was disrespectful to his father, Mu Hanzhang still couldn't help but laugh out loud, "If Your Highness were to give this picture to his father, I'm afraid that it would be a laughing matter for people."
"Then let's send you the painting first, and then send me this one when Lady Beiwei Marquis' birthday is over," Jing Shao lifted his own painting and looked at it, and said to Yunzhu who was beside him, "Go and give it to be framed."
"Yes." Yunzhu stifled a smile and rolled up the painting.
Seeing that it was lunchtime, Jing Shao was still staying in the small study, so Mu Hanzhang urged him to go out and do the right thing.
"You come with me, I'll just explain a few words to him, and I'll take you to the outskirts of the city in the afternoon." Jing Shao thought of taking Jun Qing to try the snacks in the south of the city, and to see if the peach blossoms in his brother's manor had bloomed yet. These things that he liked in his last life, he hadn't seen them since he woke up, and he was eager to take Jun Qing to see them.
Mu Hanzhang couldn't wear him down, so she had to change her clothes and go with him.
Upstairs in the Juxian building, Li Yanqing rubbed his hands happily, "Your Majesty ...... this is?" When he saw the unfamiliar face behind Jing Shao, the smile on his face became a little wary.
"This is my residence Qing guest Mr. Jun, may not matter," Jing Shao mixed not cared to pull Mu Huanzhang sat down, "today let you come is to tell you, after this business can not be done."
"Your Majesty!" Li Yanqing was alarmed, looked around and lowered his voice, "Is something wrong?"
"There are some winds in the court, it is better to restrain yourself this year," Jing Shao poured himself a cup of wine, "you go to find Ren Feng, I have told him the specific statutes, he will tell you what to do in the future." Yesterday, I went to the other villa, and then I explained the matter of the salt guide business.
After Li Yanqing left, Mu Huanzhang was silent for a moment and opened his mouth, "Did Your Highness encounter anything in the court?"
Jing Shao looked at him and hooked his lips into a smile, "There's nothing much going on right now, but has Jun Qing ever heard of the legends in the capital?"
Mu Hanzhang lowered his eyes and thought, "Is it about the rumor that King Cheng can cure children's night cries?"
"Uh-huh." His Jun Qing was really too smart for his own good, and Jing Shao felt that talking to him was the least of his troubles.
"This matter has to be treated separately from the symptoms, at the moment need to treat the symptoms first." Mu Hanzhang playing with the wine cup in his hand, slowly rubbing the rim of the cup said.
