When the general Huang Zhong went to see Nguyen Jingyi, Nguyen Jingyi was asleep in a corridor room in the Governor's Mansion.
Perhaps because he had traveled all the way to Dongguan (Hanoi), Nguyen Jingyi was really tired. The hot afternoon weather also made him drowsy, so he leaned on a chair and fell into a deep sleep. However, he did not sleep well, not only was his posture not very comfortable, but he also had nightmares one after another.
The feeling in a dream is different from that when awake. The time and scenes in a dream are floating and jumping, which makes the various feelings clearer; while when awake, we pay more attention to the present.
He seemed to see his late father, whose expression was sad and bleak, hinting that his death was as light as a feather. He seemed to see Chen Xianzhen, who was a little girl in a white dress at one moment and a beautiful woman at another. Ruan Jingyi thought she was beautiful the moment before, but the next m
The eunuch Meng Ji and his party traveled lightly and traveled back and forth to Annan Kingdom on horseback, which should be faster. But Meng Ji and others may stay in Annan Kingdom to understand the current situation there before returning to Beijing.So the navy who conquered Tsushima Island sent the report back to the capital first.The eunuch Zhou Quan and the general Wan Liang went north to fight against the Japanese pirates and the So clan of Tsushima, and everything went smoothly. The civil and military officials had already started building a fortress on Tsushima Island, and the land army of more than 500 people occupied and held that place.Wan Liang said in his memorial that there was not much arable land near Tsushima Port, and the arable land in other parts of the island was relatively scattered, scattered in the valleys, making it inconvenient to set up military farms. Therefore, the five 100-household teams stationed on Tsushima Island could no
Zhu Gaoxu entered the inner city from Yanque Lake and then returned to the palace. The afternoon sun was still very bright.Zhu Gaoxu had nothing to do today, so he chose a day to leave the palace. He could have returned to the palace later, just before the inner city was closed. But he was driven out by Ma Enhui.Usually, almost all women were submissive and flattering towards Zhu Gaoxu. After getting used to this, he was very surprised and uncomfortable when he suddenly encountered something like today.But he didn't do anything, and didn't even force Ma Enhui, and went back to the palace. Compared with the kindness and affection between the two, this matter certainly didn't make Zhu Gaoxu angry, he was just a little confused.It was still early, so Zhu Gaoxu spent the afternoon in the East Warm Pavilion, where he reviewed memorials and did some work.He didn't pay much attention to most government affairs and approved them casually. During thi
"It's great to see you when I open my eyes in the morning." A somewhat confused voice said in Zhu Gaoxu's ear.Zhu Gaoxu felt the warmth of her breath on his neck, looked at the top of the bed tent and lay there for a while, then turned around and smiled, "Where is your usual aloof self? I feel like you're becoming more and more clingy. We don't seem like people who have known each other for so many years."Imperial Concubine Miao Jin hugged him and said softly, "Yes."Zhu Gaoxu thought for a moment and said, "I have to get up. I have a lot of things to do today. The morning court and the imperial lecture have been going on for more than half a year, and the ministers are very satisfied. Wang Jinghong and others who went to the West are back, and I have to give them a regular banquet at noon."Miao Jin turned her head to look at the light that was faintly coming in from outside the curtains, then stretched out her smooth jade-white arms to open the bed
Since yesterday afternoon, Yao Ji has been staying with Zhu Gaoxu in the East Warm Pavilion, and in the evening she was in the Xianfei Palace. When she woke up the next morning, she found that Zhu Gaoxu was not around. After asking the palace maids, she found out that he was still in the Xianfei Palace and was running outside after getting up.Yao Ji got up, tidied herself up a little, put on a thin silk robe over her undergarments, and walked outside the bedroom. As expected, she heard footsteps and panting.It was still dark, but there was still light in the stone lampstand beside the brick road. Under the dim light, a burly figure was seen running up and down. That person was of course Zhu Gaoxu. He was panting as he ran, but his breath was very even and strong.After a while, Zhu Gaoxu ran over. He was wearing a gray cotton short coat and loose trousers underneath. It seemed to be very hot, his face was covered with sweat, and his clothes were wet with s
After Wang Jinghong left, Zhu Gaoxu and Miao Jin were the only ones left in the huge palace.Zhu Gaoxu was still lost in thought for a while, then he clapped his hands on the files and memorials in front of him, raised his head and exhaled, meeting Miao Jin's gaze.He looked at her and smiled. The smile had no special meaning, but he had no reason to be in a bad mood when he saw that the imperial concubine was so charming and caring about him. Such a subtle feeling.But Miao Jin stood up and said , "I'm going to find a book to read. Your Majesty, don't pay attention to me.""It's okay, I don't have anything to do right away." Zhu Gaoxu said, "Sometimes the feeling of having nothing to do is really good."Miaojin also looked at him and smiled.After he finished speaking, he stood up and walked around in the spacious and bright hall. The sunny weather makes the place very bright and clean, and the fragrance of osmanthus can still be faintly s
Qitai was sitting on a stool when he saw Zhu Gaoxu stood up from the chair and paced there with his hands behind his back. The imperial concubine was also standing, looking at Zhu Gaoxu. Qitai hesitated for a while, and finally sat on the stool without moving.After Zhu Gaoxu stood up, people felt a sense of pressure. He doesn't look very elegant like some people in robes, but has a sense of stability. His broad shoulders and chest hold up the tight outline of the silk, and the robes make his body appear taller. He had his hands behind his back and seemed to be meditating on something."I don't want to say anything about responsibility or selflessness. The main reason is that if I say too much, it will appear false." Zhu Gaoxu's voice said.Even the imperial concubine Miaojin smiled when she heard these words.Qi Tai suddenly felt a little ashamed. He guessed that the emperor seemed to want his trusted ministers to understand; but Qi Tai had no idea ho
"Brother Gao, I know that kind of place should be quite expensive. Is the salary of a third-rank official high?" Yao Fang asked curiously in the carriage.Gao Xianning said calmly, "Brother Yao has been an official before, so he should know about the salary. However, the King of Shu would ask someone to send some gifts from time to time, so I am quite well off now."Yao Fang glared after hearing this, and then said, "Thank you, Brother Gao, for treating me like a brother. Don't worry, I will just pretend I didn't hear anything."Gao Xianning smiled and said, "Your Majesty also knows, I said it."Yao Fang was speechless.The two of them arrived at Zuixianlou and entered a spacious suite. Two plates of dried fruits, a plate of oranges, and a wine jug and cups were already placed in the middle, but the dishes had not yet arrived. From the back window, one could see the pleasure boat floating on the Qinhuai River. There were small rest rooms on both
Several days had passed since Qi Tai met with Gao Xianning and talked about Xianfei's brother Yao Fang's trip to Tsushima Island in Japan.Today, Qitai came home from work early. He looked excited and walked very fast. So much so that when his young wife saw him, she smiled and asked what good things happened to her today.Qitai brought back a painting, a fake of Snow Creek Late Crossing; he searched for it in pawn shops, calligraphy and painting shops, and antique shops for several days, and finally found it today. He was inexplicably excited to suddenly obtain this thing, even if it was just a fake.By the time Mrs. Qi Yang Yuniang came in with tea and water, Qi Tai had been sitting on a chair, looking at the painting for a while. Yang Yunniang gently placed the teacup on the table without daring to disturb him.Qi Tai suddenly asked, "Yunnan cooked tea?"Yun Niang said, "My husband has a really sharp nose.""New tea?" Qitai turned around
