Chapter 44: The Uncle of Weiyang

The sound of the piano is sometimes high, sometimes melodious, sometimes gentle, sometimes low, through the golden and cracked stones, fascinating the soul. Everyone in the hall was fascinated by the sound of the piano, and their eyes became blurred. When the last note lingered around, the old man had quietly left. When everyone opened their eyes from the intoxication, they found that the door was empty.

The mysterious sound of the piano, the mysterious old man.

This song seems to have magic power, and Yun Xiao’s mood is completely different. Even though Wan Niang around him tried to keep him, Yun Xiao still said goodbye.

In the early morning, the Weiyang Palace was shrouded in a layer of mist, and several eunuchs stretched their heads and looked at the palace gate.

"Here, come."

A sharp-eyed eunuch pointed to a four-carriage carriage in the distance and said, his tone full of excitement.

Yun Xiao got off the carriage, and each of the Cang brothers behind him brought two large food boxes.

"I have met Mr. Yun. The name of Mr. Wang is Guixi. Mr. Wang got the man named Wei Ren here to wait for Mr. Yun. My master has asked His Majesty to ask His Majesty to be the decree. Marquis Yun can enter the palace and meet Mr. Wang directly without going to the Xuanshi to attend the imperial edict."

Yun Xiao was stunned. Could this beauty be Wang Zhi be Wang? This woman is not simple. She has been married and had children and can even sneak into the palace. Not only can she sneak into the palace, but she is also very favored by Liu Qi. She gave birth to several daughters. But her son only gave birth to one, and just one seedling was actually the emperor under her management. The achievements of this aunt were enough to make Aunt Cixi in later generations ashamed.

Yun Xiao was stunned for a moment and said yes.

Guixi waved his hand and several eunuchs rushed forward and took the huge food box from the hands of the Cang brothers. The Cang brothers could not enter the palace, so they could only wait in front of the palace gate for Yun Xiao to come out.

The road to the ** is very different from the Dengyun Road to the Xuanshi. The road paved with thick bluestone slabs is rugged and only allows two cars to run side by side. The tall palace walls on both sides are extremely tall, and seem to be a little tilted. It feels like the two mountains will press down on themselves at any time, making people feel suffocating.

Yun Xiao, who was walking here for the first time, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and only hoped to walk out of this depressing corridor.

Seeing Yun Xiao's expression, Guixi said: "It's probably the first time that Yunhou has come to this road on earth. This corridor was ordered by Emperor Gaozu, and the purpose is to let the palace people who entered the ** to experience the ups and downs of the road on earth. I hope that the people of the ** should keep their duties and not have other thoughts. It's like this road. If you think too much, you will feel that the palace wall will be pressed towards you."

Yun Xiao sighed a little that these great emperors thought about the rule of the empire with every word, action, or even grass and tree. It was nothing more than a kind of psychological hint of using architecture to give people a strong psychological hint. When it came to Liu Bang's mouth, it turned into such a philosophical discourse.

The palace in which the beautiful Wang lives is in the northeast corner of the Weiyang Palace. This location is only a little worse than that of Concubine Li who lives in the southeast corner. It can be seen that the status of Concubine Wang in the palace. Liu Qi's empress died early. If anyone in the palace has the ability to threaten Concubine Li's status, it would be the only one of Concubine Wang. If it weren't for getting married and having children before entering the palace, it would probably have been granted the queen now. Divorce is not new, and it is new to be able to marry the emperor in the second marriage. It is even more rare to be able to marry the emperor and become the queen. Looking at the history of human civilization for thousands of years, there are probably few cases. Mrs. Simpson in later generations did not do it, and she also got a king in this way.

The palace garden is very elegant and quiet, and the green bamboos in large clusters are trimmed in a very regular manner. The clear springs in the dock flow, and a few strange rocks are scattered casually in the courtyard. It is said that Wang Shi knew literacy and liked to read ancient books. Today, he saw it.

Yun Xiao went to Baotuquan in Jinan and felt that Wang Shi's courtyard had the same effect as Li Qingzhao's former residence. It can calm the irritability instantly, and it is quite like a literary young woman.

Yun Xiao had just followed Guixi into the palace, and a group of children of all sizes ran over.

"Yunhou, Hou Yun." The one running in front was naturally the ginseng doll Liu Xiaozhu who was loved by everyone.

Liu Xiaozhu had a front tooth missing from his open mouth, and he smiled and threw himself into Yun Xiao's arms. The other children stopped behind and chattered.

"Have you brought me what I want for you, Mr. Yun? I told my sisters, Mr. Yun, don't let me down."

Yun Xiao touched Liu Xiaozhu's tender and white face, as if he could pinch a pool of water.

"Of course I brought it to you."

As he said that, he pulled Liu Xiaozhu into a pavilion and called the eunuch to open the food box. A group of small people suddenly stared at the top of the head. A girl of thirteen or fourteen led a girl of seven or eight years old standing in front and staring blankly. Behind them was a beautiful girl of thirty-five or sixteen years old, standing there like a fresh lily, giving people a sense of outspreadingness.

Liu Xiaozhu pulled the two bold girls into the pavilion.

"This is my sister, this is Nangong, this is Pingyang. Sister, this is what I am talking about. He will tell me stories. The story of that monkey was told to me by Yunhou. Unfortunately, my father took me back before he finished listening.

Sister, these are all brought to me by Marquis Yun, I'll treat you to eat."

Liu Xiaozhu generously pushed the food box over, grabbed a ball and threw it into his mouth, chewing it crunched.

After all, the girl in the palace did not grab her with her hands like Liu Xiaozhu. Instead, she picked up the chopsticks and held the meatballs without hesitation. After a while, her pouty mouth bulged like two squirrels.

The girl, who was fifteen or sixteen years old, stood outside the pavilion. Seeing that they were eating sweetly, her throat also moved twice.

"Yu'er, Pingyang, Nangong, Longqing... I can't find you everywhere, why are you hiding here?" Wang Shi's voice came from the edge of the bamboo bush, and Yun Xiao hurriedly saluted.

"Yun Xiao has seen the Empress."

"It turns out that Marquis Yun is here, please sit down. I am just a beauty and I can't even be called the Queen. Just call me Beauty Wang." Wang Shi smiled warmly, not at all the domineering as I imagined.

"Zhu'er, why don't sister Longqing come here to eat together? Mother has taught you that Longqing is your sister now. Longqing, you should also pay attention to your identity. You are no longer a palace maid, but Princess Longqing, who was specially granted by His Majesty. Show some royal domineering spirit. If you don't do this, how can you learn to be a princess?"

Wang Shi's tone was stern in his warm tone. The lily-like Princess Longqing hurriedly bowed and sang, walked into the pavilion and carefully picked up a meatball and stuffed it into her mouth.

"The princess was born, not learned."

Nangong said with his oily mouth.

"Nonsense, I'm better to your sister Longqing. Your sister Longqing went to the Huns to marry for our great Han."

Wang Shi turned his head and smiled at Yun Xiao.

"Mr. Yun laughed."

Yun Xiao's heart was shocked. It turned out that this lily-like woman was going to send Princess Longqing, who was married to the Huns. I really didn't know that such a girl with flowers could last for a few years in that bitter and cold place. The Han people were simply not withstand the wind and sand of the desert, and most of the princesses who married to the Huns would not live to be thirty years old.

Yun Xiao felt mixed feelings in his heart. It turned out that his comfort was exchanged for many such flowers-like girls with their lives.

"Yunhou, Yunhou"

Wang Shi's voice rang in his ears.

"Well, I am distracted. Please forgive me for your sins."

"It's okay, I'm inviting you to come today for the sake of Tao'er. I've asked for an order yesterday to appoint the Marquis of Yun as the Neishi Ling of the King of Jiaodong."

"Oh, as far as we know, the current Jiaodong King Ke is still..."

"Don't go out and say that Wang'er's Jiaodong King did not make an order. The day after tomorrow, Your Majesty will announce that the King of Jiaodong will be renamed the King of Dong'ou, and let the King of Jiaodong go to the south to take the vassal."

"Dongou is a place where barbarians are smoky. Will this be..."

"This is what Your Majesty is considering. I, a woman, just serve the emperor and raise the prince and princess. This is not something I think about. Let you prepare for your Majesty's order and go directly to the Jiaodong fiefdom and hand over to the King of Jiaodong."

Handover! It depends on your heart. From such a wealthy place as Jiaodong, you drove you to such a place as Dongou. If you don’t rebel, you will be a ghost, so there is no need to handover. If you do this, you will rebel directly.

If you can't go, you must not go. If you go, you will be criticized by the rebels on the way, it will be a big accusation.

"No, the beautiful king Xie is trusting. The last time the uncle of the country mentioned this matter to Weichen. Weichen also thought that the King of Jiaodong would become a wise king, so he agreed. However, Weichen thought that the matter of handover with the King of Jiaodong was better than to wait until the King of Jiaodong came to Beijing to thank him. Since he had gone to a smoky place like Dongou, it was always necessary to take some wealth and leave, which would show the royal magnanimity.

The current Jiaodong King cannot pack the people away, as long as there are people, everything will be easy. Jiaodong is a place of salt and iron, and has been a prosperous hometown since ancient times. Are there still people who are afraid that our Jiaodong King will suffer poverty?”

"This... OK. Since you said that, just do what you mean. I am a woman and I don't understand such things, and I can't do it."

Wang Shi's good temper surprised Yun Xiao. He thought he would be scolded by Wang Shi. Unexpectedly, he agreed to his words so happily, which greatly changed Yun Xiao's impression of Wang Shi. Now, no matter how he looked, he couldn't tell that Wang Shi would interfere in the government. Why did the eunuch Sima Qian write about the gentle woman in front of him so much?

"I will only go to the fiefdom and vassal until I have passed the etiquette. I'll ask you about the fiefdom. Although my incompetent brother is a little less capable, he is always effective. Yunhou..."

"Hahaha, the uncle of the king of Jiaodong is the uncle, so he naturally has to go to the vassal state to take care of it. The empress doesn't have to worry about this. Yun will not have any thoughts."
