Dongling's motorcade arrived in the capital at the end of February.
On the bus, the empress and his party came to the capital to accept the new gift, and they were no longer empress and Emperor.
All the way to the capital, their hearts were uneasy. Although they would get preferential treatment if they took the initiative to offer their land, it was not sure whether Beili court would treat them harshly on the spur of the moment.
I'm a fish, but I'm not sure what will happen next.
After his guard of honor left Lin'an, many things were not in his plan.
Compared with him, Li Guifei, who has long been named Queen, is happy.
She and Ning Chengzhi were in the same carriage. When they arrived at Beili, they always opened the curtain and looked out. They were very interested in Beili's customs.
Ning Chengzhi is a little displeased, "your empress, what's the system like this?"
After that, I felt a little uncomfortable.
He was no longer an emperor, and naturally Princess Li was no longer a queen.
But she was happy, "what's the matter with your majesty? My empress, are you afraid of being seen by the common people? What's more, Beili people don't care about these. I heard that there are many ladies in Chunwei this year. Women can all take part in the imperial examination. What's the matter with the curtain
Ning Chengzhi also heard that they have now left Dongling, and naturally do as the Romans do.
But is the view outside the car that good?
He thought about it and looked over her head along the line of sight of Li Guifei. Li Guifei generously gave him a place and gave him a mouthful on his face.
Rather Chengzhi Leng Leng, the corners of his mouth unconsciously let out a smile.
He looked out of the window and saw that in early spring, the fields were green and tender, and the farmers were farming with their families.
A child was playing with mud in the paddy field, and her face was covered with black mud. The woman stood on the ridge of the field, took out a kettle and gave it to her husband who was planting rice seedlings.
She gently took out her handkerchief and wiped the sweat on her husband's forehead. Her husband said a few words to her with a smile, and she squatted down to wipe the child's face
What a happy farm scene.
Ning Chengzhi said: "it's said that after the war between Beili and sangyi, not only the national strength declined, but also the taxes increased by 40% to put pressure on the people. I I, how can I see that there is no sign that the people are living in poverty? "
Princess Li said with a smile, "why is the people living in poverty? My concubine heard that in the three years since she ascended the throne, besides the amnesty when she first ascended the throne, she also paid little taxes in the next two years. The common people have gained more benefits. Now that they pay 40% more taxes, where can they not afford them? "
Ning Chengzhi can't help but wonder, "do you still know these?"
He always thought that Princess Li could only eat, drink, play and fool around. At the beginning, he made her queen, but because she was the last one around him who still had true feelings.
Unexpectedly, now that her queen's position is gone, she has grown up instead.
Princess Li raised her head triumphantly, "of course. Once upon a time, I didn't know anything in the palace. It was because of your Majesty's favor. Now... "
She looks a little dark, even Ning Chengzhi is not comfortable.
Yes, now they have to rely on others to look at others' faces. How can they be as ignorant of the world as before?
Princess Li continued to laugh, "now I want to support your majesty. How can I do without learning more? When I first came out of Lin'an, my concubine discovered that the ten important towns that belong to Beili, the common people are also planting rice seedlings, but they are not the same as the common people outside Lin'an. "
Ning Chengzhi worried all the way, but did not pay attention to the scene outside the window, then said: "how different?"
"Most of the people outside Lin'an City are dressed in rags. I think they are planting rice seedlings in the field. They are worried about getting dirty, so they don't wear good clothes. Most of them also look sad. They don't know whether they are worried about having no rice to cook at home or about having too much work to do in the field. "
"The people in Beili are different. Even the clothes they wear for transplanting rice seedlings are neat. We can see what kind of good clothes they wear when they go out to play on weekdays. Did your majesty see the child sitting in the mud playing just now? "
Ning Chengzhi nodded, "see, is a lively child."
Princess Li said solemnly: "I think about it. If I work hard and my children play dirty there, I will be very angry. After all, there is no maid in waiting to wash the children's clothes, and there is no nanny holding the children down to coax them. All things have to be done by the farmer's wife. Can't you be so angry? "
Ning Chengzhi thought about it and suddenly understood, "do you mean that the farmer's wife looks smiling and not angry at all? It's because she has a good life. She doesn't have to work in the fields, so it's not hard for her to go home and wash clothes, is it? "
"I think so."
She has just learned to pay attention to the people's livelihood and is not sure whether what she has observed is right or wrong.
However, one thing can be sure that even though the people of Beili experienced terrible war, they were much richer and more comfortable than the people of Dongling.
This is the general trend of the people. We have to surrender.
Ning Chengzhi nodded thoughtfully. He didn't know what he was worried about and lowered his head silently.
Li Guifei was not happy when she saw him saying that. She comforted him quickly, "what's the matter with your majesty?""I am no longer your majesty."
On the letter sent to the capital to surrender, it was written that he was willing to demote himself as a marquis and bow to Beili, but he didn't decide what the outcome would be.
He is very worried about his future situation.
Princess Li paused, "well My husband
Poof.
Ning Chengzhi almost didn't hold his expression. He meant to worry about his identity, but Li Guifei wanted to address her.
Her mind is as simple as it is.
He said helplessly, "I mean Well, forget it
Let her be so happy, happy day by day, tell the woman to solve those troubles, what kind of man?
Although he is not the emperor, at least he is still a man and the pillar of the women around him.
……
All the way to the capital, the guard of honor saw the tall and majestic gate of the capital from a distance, and the mouth of Li Guifei opened into a circle.
She thought that the most majestic wall in the world must be the wall of Lin'an. When she saw the capital, she found out what it means to see a witch from a small one.
It used to be the imperial capital of the early Zhou Dynasty, which is totally different from Lin'an, a place with a short history of capital construction.
Ning Chengzhi's heart cooled, and he was ashamed to face the scenery of the capital.
No wonder Yufu didn't like him. She didn't care about the identity of Dongling emperor. Beili is better than Dongling.
Close to the gate, they see a group of people in official clothes are looking forward to, Li Guifei see from the gap of the car curtain, busy greeting Ning Chengzhi to see.
Ning Chengzhi saw his acquaintance at a glance.
The official in charge is the envoy who used to go to Dongling with Yufu. What's his name Yes, Chen Jingxing!
He personally went outside the city to meet them, which shows that he attached great importance to them.
He hurriedly got out of the car, reached out to help the princess Li down, and saw Chen Jingxing with a group of officials come up, arched his hand toward him, with a modest posture.
Ning Chengzhi was relieved at the sight of his attitude.
When he was the emperor of Dongling, Chen Jingxing didn't treat himself better than he does now. It can be seen that he didn't deliberately neglect him now.
After seeing each other, Chen Jingxing said with a smile, "I have a lot of predestination with emperor Ning. This is the second time we have met."
Ning Chengzhi nodded and said, "yes, if I remember correctly, you are Honglu Siqing of Beili. When you went to Dongling as an envoy in those years, your style was outstanding, and it's still impressive. "
Chen Jingxing didn't show any complacency or sneer at him, but said, "I'm flattered. Your majesty sent us to meet you. Please stay in the post house for a rest and come to the palace to meet you some day. "
When Ning Chengzhi heard this, he hesitated.
What he was most afraid of was that he would come to the palace to meet him. It was said that the prince of Xikun, kunjun Yue, was trapped in the post house and killed by Kunwu.
Didn't he come all the way to the capital just to see Yu Fu and get a gift that wasn't humble?
If you're stuck in the post house
He could not help shivering all over, thinking about how to open his mouth to Chen Jingxing.
Chen Jingxing seemed to be aware of his thoughts and said with a smile: "emperor Ning doesn't have to worry. Your majesty has been pregnant for eight or nine months, so he is not able to see guests all the time. Moreover, with the custom of Beili, it is not suitable for the officials to face the saints at once when they are far away, so as to avoid suffering from acclimatization and other diseases due to overwork in the long journey. "
Ning Chengzhi wanted to say something else. Princess Li stepped forward and said, "yes, husband, let's listen to Mr. Chen and go back to the post house to have a rest first. How can we live up to the kindness of your majesty and Mr. Chen? "
He said, "thank you, Mr. Chen."
Chen Jingxing nodded slightly and asked them to get on the carriage, "please."
Back on the carriage, all the way into the city, through the long street, Li Guifei still only looked out of the carriage, very happy about the prosperity of the capital.
She said to the soldiers who followed the guard outside the carriage, "the capital is really prosperous. Please ask Mr. Chen for me if we can come out and have a look after we go back to the post office."
The soldier nodded to her first, and then said, "please, madam. Those who come here are guests. Naturally, there is no reason why they can't go out."
After hearing this, Princess Li narrowed her eyes with a smile.
The soldier didn't even tell Chen Jingxing that she could go out. She was immediately satisfied and put down the curtain of the carriage.
Ning Chengzhi looked at her and said, "husband, if you don't feel tired at night, let's go out and have a look. I see many red lights hanging on both sides of the long street. It must be very busy to come out at night. "
Ning Chengzhi said: "can you come out?"
"Yes, I did."
Li imperial concubine attached to his ear, so said some, Ning Chengzhi suddenly in front of a bright, "you say reasonable, it seems that nothing will happen."
Li Guifei said in a low voice: "if you don't feel at ease, you can ask Mr. Chen when you arrive at the post house."
The guard of honor stopped in front of the post house, and Chen Jingxing escorted them in. Ning Chengzhi said, "Mr. Chen has worked hard. Why don't you go in and have a cup of tea?"Chen Jingxing said, "I won't disturb you to have a rest."
Ning Chengzhi thought, pretending to casual way: "by the way, we first came to the capital, I do not know where to go here, or do as the Romans do, learn more about the local customs."
After hearing this, Chen Jingxing felt sensible. The emperor Ning, who used to act recklessly, now knows how to do as the Romans do. It's really beneficial.
He thought for a moment and said, "the capital is very prosperous. I suggest you take a rest in the daytime. After enough rest, you can come out at night. The public security in the capital is excellent. There are no doors closed at night, no roads left, no curfew at night, and the lights are bright all the time. Just along this long street, Yiying has restaurants, teahouses, jewelry and clothes. You can get to know the food and fashion of the capital. It's just - "
Ning Chengzhi was very happy when he heard his detailed introduction. He didn't want another sentence.
"Just what?"
He had ideas flying in his head.
For example, let them not contact and talk with outsiders. For example, ask them to go out and take the soldiers with Beili. The name of protection is actually surveillance. For example, let them go out as little as possible
He thought about countless possibilities, but Chen Jingxing frowned slightly and said with some worries: "there are so many delicious food in the capital. You should be moderate and don't eat too much."
……
"Your Majesty doesn't know. They went to the capital the day before yesterday. They went shopping in the evening. According to the people in the post house, when they came back, their hands were full of all kinds of snacks and jewelry boxes, and their stomachs were round. "
Two days later, the people of Honglu Temple reported to Yufu the news of Ning Chengzhi and his party. Shaoqing of Honglu Temple wanted to laugh and had to restrain his expression, which made Yufu want to laugh.
She said helplessly: "is it so funny? Just smile if you want. I'm not counting you. I'm just losing your honor. "
"Ha ha ha! I have lost my honor, I have lost my honor
That little Qing laughs and tears all flow out, while laughing and saying that he has lost the instrument to plead guilty, Yu Fu can't help imagining the picture he said, is Ning Chengzhi so indifferent?
Chen Jingxing looked back at his subordinates. Yu Fu thought he would stop him seriously. Unexpectedly, he turned around and laughed himself.
"Your Majesty, it's not just that night. The people in the post house said that they went out every day, sometimes they wanted to go to some distant scenic spots and historic sites, and they also asked the people in the post house to lead them out. I'm having a good time every day. It doesn't look like I'm coming to join in at all. "
"Yes, yes."
Shaoqing continued to smile. "That day, Mr. Chen said that he asked them to be moderate when they went out. But today, the Post House asked the doctor to go, saying that emperor Ning could not digest his food. Your majesty, are you ridiculous? Ha ha ha
Yu Fu said with a smile, "can it be cured now?"
Chen Jingxing shook his head with a smile, "cured, Ningdi said more walking helps digestion. So after drinking medicine in the post office, he took his wife to go shopping. His wife always knows how to buy jewelry and clothes. Many shops in the capital are talking about it. They think it's the newly married lady who is so rich. "
When Yu Fu heard this, he waved to them to stop talking.
Further on, she was afraid that she would lose her honor in front of her ministers.
After a while, she relaxed and said, "since they are so happy, I will send someone to accompany them. I'm not in a hurry to see them."
Chen Jingxing said: "that minister will arrange the people of Honglu temple..."
"No
Yu Fu thought for a moment, but he had some bad taste: "let Kun Wu go to accompany them. Anyway, his perfume shop also needs rich ladies as buyers, doesn't it?"
Kunwu has long been successful in his career from politics to business. His business is excellent, and now he has opened a second branch.
If it wasn't for the fact that Ning Chengzhi and his wife are rich and big buyers, he would not be willing to accompany them.
Ning Chengzhi had seen Kun Wu hurt. When he saw that Yu Fu had sent him to play with him, he was almost scared to death.
Isn't Kun Jun Yue killed in this post house?
The couple, who had been playing happily for two or three days, immediately got worried again. Kun Wu comforted them when he was hurt. "Do you know why your majesty sent me to play with you?"
"I don't know."
Kun Wu hurt and cocked his legs, "because my today is very likely your tomorrow. Don't think that your majesty will be able to give you a marquis if you are demoted to Marquis. What if you take your soldiers to revolt? "
"Besides, what's wrong with me? There are big houses and silver. No one dares to take care of food and drink. They can also rely on their knowledge of the people in the court to seek benefits. Life is so comfortable! "
The former Xikun emperor taught the former Dongling emperor what she learned. The former Dongling queen was bored when she heard that there was a big house with silver. She left and went back to her house to try her jewelry.
Beili's clothes and jewelry are so beautiful and classic. Even the common women on the street are very gorgeous. She must not lose to others.
I don't know what the two former emperors exchanged. After two hours, Ning Chengzhi knocked on her door. "Let's go out. Kun Wushang asked us to visit his ointment shop.""Balm?"
"Here it is," she said! Here we go
