Spring Forest Evening

Shen Yi babbled all the way, and then Zhou Heng himself didn't know when he fell asleep, but was woken up by A Hua who woke up:

"Sister, sister, play tricks for me!"

All right, it’s probably coming soon anyway, Zhou Heng embarrassedly apologized to Shen Yi who was watching with a smile:

"Sister, did I lean on you to sleep just now? It made you tired!"

"What's the matter?" Shen Yi patted her son's head with a smile: "Seeing you both sleeping like piglets in front of me, it's very interesting!"

After hearing this, Zhou Heng didn't say anything more, just smiled and patiently taught the little guy to start pulling the rope to do tricks.

"The little bird can chirp! The little bird can chirp!" The three- and four-year-old kid was so deceitful, he kept pulling the rope happily, and couldn't put it down for this new toy.

In this way, along the way, accompanied by the sound of baby's milk and the chirping of ceramic birds, we soon arrived at the hot spring village.

Although the weather is still relatively hot, as the place chosen by the royal family, it is indeed a good place. It feels warm in winter and cool in summer. I spent a few days with Shen Yi and her mother comfortably, and finally took a car with them to Zhuangzi. Gua Guo returned to Prince Jing's mansion.

Zhou Heng, who returned to the palace, was delighted to find that he could move back to the main courtyard again. In the past few days, Shen Fu had asked people to work overtime to dig through the secret passage under the main courtyard. The secret passage underneath is very solid, and there is basically no collapse. After the repairs are completed, in a few days, you can even go down from the acacia tree in the main courtyard and walk all the way to the Liufeng Pavilion.

As for the Liufeng Pavilion, even though the building is being built on the top, the bottom can still be dug, but the secret road by the lake has not been found yet, and Shen Fu feels quite confident about it:

"Aheng, I thought, after all, that side is connected to the Xiayun Lake, and people are still digging. As long as they can find the secret path, maybe they can go directly to the next door mansion after a while."

The two had been separated for a few days, and Zhou Heng felt very happy to see him again, so at first he felt that he had endless words to talk to, but for some reason, after meeting and talking a few words, with the help of a girl in love However, I feel that Shen Fu is a little different from a few days ago. As for why it is different, I don’t know why. For this reason, Zhou Heng once asked him directly with doubts:

"Ah Fu, is there anything going on in the mansion these days?"

Shen Fu replied:

"What can happen in the mansion?" It's a matter outside the mansion.

Zhou Heng didn't take it seriously, and only thought that since there was nothing wrong in the palace, then Shen Fu was fine, and Shen Fu was fine, and it was none of her business if the sky fell outside, so he didn't ask any more questions. I haven't seen him for a few days, and the gaze that looked at me seemed to be more lingering, so I didn't think much about it, I just happily moved back to the inner room of the main courtyard, and waited for a few days to walk from the secret passage unnoticed. On the side of Liufeng Pavilion, take a walk with Shen Fu in the evening breeze, blow the wind and talk, and relive the good old days.

During this period, news of the palaces on both sides came one after another. Zhou Heng was told by Shen Fu that the emperor will return to Beijing soon, and the eldest prince will be officially conferred the crown prince. For this reason, the Ministry of Rites has been dispatched Officials come back to make necessary preparations.

The news from Empress Jiang was only half a day late, and it was the same content. I just added my own opinion, to the effect that the first prince was full of ambition, but the second prince looked calm and normal, and there was something wrong. I wonder if there is a dark tide underneath , I hope Prince Jing's Mansion can pay more attention.

"This Empress Jiang..." Zhou Heng was a little speechless after hearing Shen Fu's report. Why did he feel that the empress wanted to use Prince Jing's mansion as a weapon?Still kind of righteous.

The information provided by the Empress before is considered useful if it is useful, and it is useless if it is useless. After all, Prince Jing’s mansion already knows about the alliance between the second prince and the third princess. The only possible value is two green hats, one The first emperor's, a heavy one.Leaving aside the green hat of the first emperor, the green hat worn by Shen Fu indirectly contributed to the discovery of the secret passage under the Wanqing Courtyard, but it was a matter of time, and the empress did not owe much of the credit.

Therefore, hearing that Shen Fu is being ordered by Empress Jiang to do things now, Zhou Heng felt that he didn't like all the women in the palace, and they all looked self-righteous.

Shen Fu didn't say anything, he just reassured her and comforted her by saying that Empress Jiang is a high-ranking person after all, maybe she's used to ordering others on weekdays, so she just ignores it:

"Now that the emperor has let go of the canonization of the crown prince and sent officials from the Ministry of Rites back, he doesn't intend to continue to hide it. The preparations in the early stage must have been secure, and the second prince should not be able to find out. What kind of tricks. The empress also understands these things, she deliberately asked people to tell me, and she didn't mean to tell me, she just wanted to show her kindness and remind you, and you don't have to get angry with her. "

Even so, in the next few days, Zhou Heng felt that he saw Shen Fu less and less often, not to mention eating together at lunch, even breakfast, and they often didn't meet together, and the same was true for dinner. I often have to wait without sleeping, so that I can see people who have returned in a hurry in the dead of night.

"Ah Fu, are you busy with other things recently? You don't need to keep an eye on the secret road, right? It's really not possible, can we let Uncle He come back?" Zhou Heng began to doubt, and always felt that Shen Fu had something to do. Keeping it from myself, people look a little thinner under the lights, and these days they wake up sooner or later, and they are a little haggard.

Zhou Heng didn't doubt Shen Fu's feelings for him, but just took it for granted that he must have felt that there were some things he couldn't explain clearly to him, so he blamed himself very much for this:

"It's a pity that I can't help you much!"

Naturally, Shen Fu couldn't hear these words, so after washing up, he took her by the hand and went to the yard, and walked to the Albizia julibrissin tree full of small pink fans during the day, while comforting her in a warm voice:

"I need your help everywhere, but now the mansion doesn't have to be in the past, and the necessary preparations still have to be made. You also know that although the mansion is full of brothers, there are some things that cannot be easily delegated to others. If necessary, I will A little out of control."

And expressed guilt:

"The elder sister has already returned to the mansion. After all, she is Madam Hou who presides over Zhongfu, and she can't stay outside too much, so you can only stay in the mansion now, but don't worry, wait a while..."

Having said that, he paused for a while, as if he didn't know how to speak. Seeing this, Zhou Heng answered curiously and asked him:

"What happened after a while?"

"After a while..." Shen Fu looked up at the faint branches and leaves of a tree in the night, Zhou Heng lowered his body and picked up two Albizia juliensis flowers that had fallen on the grass, and handed them to Shen Fu to let him insert them on the grass. On the head of the ball, Shen Fu picked it up, and while carefully helping her pin the small pink flower, which was as weak as a feather, to the side of the bun, he said vaguely:

"There are bound to be changes in the capital. At that time... Maybe you have to go outside."
