Jiang Bin stepped forward with a smile on his face.

Zhu Houzhao was in a good mood. Seeing Jiang Bin smiling brightly, she joked: "What's so happy? Have you picked up the treasure?"

Jiang Bin said: "I have brought good things to the emperor."

Zhu Houzhao said: "What good thing?"

Jiang Bin waved his hand and the two guards came in with a large basket. Inside the basket were several round, green watermelons.

Zhu Houzhao smiled and said, "So it's this."

Jiang Bin said: "This is a big watermelon produced in the Western Regions. Hu merchants transported two trucks from the west and were sold out when they arrived at the gate of the city. I happened to ride a horse and snatch a basket of them. I came to pay tribute to the emperor. The big watermelon planted in the sandy soil in the Western Regions has a sweet sandy flesh and a very beautiful taste. On this hot day, the emperor has drunk a lot of wine in the past few days to celebrate the celebration. He just ate some fruits and fruits to relieve the heat and nourish the stomach."

Zhu Houzhao nodded and smiled, "Not bad. I'm interested."

Jiang Bin smiled and said, "This is what I deserve."

Zhu Houzhao nodded and walked into the palace.

Jiang Bin said again: "Emperor, I have also obtained some wines from the country of Folangji to honor the emperor. In this weather, drinking iced wine is the most nourishing."

Zhu Houzhao stopped and looked at Jiang Bin and said, "What's wrong today? She gave me watermelon and wine. Do you have anything to ask me for it? Tell me, what's the matter? Don't beat around the bush."

Jiang Bin smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just want to respect the emperor."

Zhu Hou took care of Jiang Bin and said, "Jiang Bin, if you have something to do, just say it. If you are pretentious, I will ignore it."

Jiang Bin thought for a while and bowed, "Emperor, I will leave the capital soon. This is the last time I will respect the emperor. I will hand over the affairs of the yamen tomorrow and accompany my mother back to Shanxi. Today I came to say goodbye to the emperor."

Zhu Houzhao was stunned and asked, "Didn't it meant that it was August?"

Jiang Bin bowed and said, "Yes, but my mother is homesick and doesn't want to stay for a moment. I thought, anyway, the emperor has chosen the candidate for the replacement of me, and the Duke of the Protector of the Kingdom and the British are victorious in Hetao again. The emperor has no worries anymore, so I feel relieved. So I come to ask the emperor for compliment, and I plan to leave tomorrow. In the future, I will not be able to serve the emperor, so please take care of the dragon body."

After speaking, Jiang Bin's voice became even more swallowed.

Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly and said softly: "Okay. Since that's the case, I won't keep you anymore. Go. I will order someone to arrange your position and give you some land. You can also serve your mother well."

Jiang Bin knelt down and kowtowed, "Thank you, the emperor, I have kowtowed to you."

Zhu Houzhao waved his hand, sighed and turned to walk into the palace gate. Jiang Bin gritted his teeth, let out a sigh, and shouted in a deep voice: "Prince, please stay! I have a reluctant request!"

Zhu Houzhao turned around and said, "What's the matter?"

Jiang Bin said: "I am serving the emperor in one day and are about to leave the capital. It will be difficult to see the emperor in the future. I want to accompany the emperor to enjoy the moon and drink tonight, and serve the emperor for the last time."

Zhu Houzhao frowned and said, "Is this necessary? What month to enjoy tonight?"

Jiang Bin said: "Tonight's full moon, the emperor has worked very hard during this period. I asked the emperor to go to Taiye Pond to enjoy the moon, drink a few cups of iced wine to relieve the heat and cool down, and listen to a few small songs. Just like before. I will arrange it and discipline the emperor. Don't worry, I will not say anything else. I just want to serve the emperor to enjoy the moon, drink and listen to music for the last time. If the emperor feels that there is no need for this, then I will say nothing."

Zhu Houzhao pondered for a moment, nodded slowly and said, "Okay, since you are all in love, I will go boating with you tonight to enjoy the moon. But it cannot be too late. I will have to go to the morning court tomorrow morning to solve some problems of replenishing food, grass and supplies for the Northern Expedition Army."

Jiang Bin said happily: "Thank you, thank you, thank you. Then I will go and prepare."

Zhu Houzhao nodded and said, "You go."

Jiang Bin kowtowed and stood up, bowed and left. Zhu Houzhao looked at his back and sighed, "Jiang Bin is quite kind, he is loyal to me."

Wang An, the personal eunuch who was accompanying the side, echoed: "Yes, Lord Jiang is indeed very loyal. Alas, it's just that the Duke of Guardian will not deal with him. When Lord Jiang goes, there is a missing person by the emperor."

Zhu Houzhao turned her head and shouted coldly: "Palm and mouth! Who told you to say such things?"

Wang An was startled and kowtowed. He slapped himself a few times in the face and begged for mercy. Zhu Houzhao scolded him a few times, and it was fine.

...

The long and hot day is a torment for many people. For those coolies who carry loads and resist bags under the scorching sun, the day is long and thirsty.

First release: Tower & Read novel

Because you have to shed a few kilograms of sweat, you have to run a long way on the ground with burning feet, and you have to carry hundreds or thousands of kilograms of heavy objects on your calloused shoulders.

But for some people, this is just a long nap in the cool breeze.

Zhu Houzhao slept in the afternoon and woke up at dusk. She washed her face and put on her clothes. While serving, Wang An reminded Zhu Houzhao that Jiang Bin had arrived and said that the cruise ship on the Taiye Pond in Xiyuan was ready. Everything was ready, and he was already waiting for the emperor to come there.

Zhu Houzhao nodded, left the bedroom and came to the corridor. The air outside was hot. Although the sunset was about to set, the temperature was still quite high. Standing under the corridor for a while, he began to sweat faintly.

"Your Majesty, should you move to the West Garden? In this weather, it's better to go to the boat to drink some iced wine, blow the lake breeze, and eat iced fruits. Anyway, Lord Jiang is ready." Wang An suggested.

Zhu Houzhao agreed, so he walked out of Qianqing Palace, followed the palace road to the west, left Xihuamen and came to Xiyuan. Then he walked north along the road beside Taiye Pond outside Xihuamen, and then arrived at the Hushang Street Market that Liu Jin had started to build before.

In order to please Zhu Houzhao, Liu Jin built this water market on the lake in Taiye Pond. At that time, there were shops, workshops, brothels and taverns, which were to satisfy Zhu Houzhao's special hobbies. One-stop service for shopping and kilns was provided.

However, after Liu Jin's crime was exposed, he was Lingchi, Zhu Houzhao attracted criticism from the court and the public because of his favoritism. The act of killing his father and his enemies made Zhu Houzhao passive. Therefore, he had to restrain himself, evacuate the leopard room, and reduce some ridiculous palace play.

This water market has been no longer lively since then, because the emperor did not come, and the so-called livelihoods in the market were not necessary. They were originally pretended to be eunuchs and maids in the palace and women in the leopard room.

At this moment, the market on the water was empty and swaying on the water. The disrepaired floating board gently hit the waves on the lake. The wooden stakes on the water with rust and moss stood in the water, peeling off their original colors in black.

Under the setting sun, the entire water market exudes a rotten and musty smell, squeaking on the water surface, like a ruin that collapses at any time. Moreover, the empty water market gives people a sense of gloomy and claustrophobia.

Zhu Houzhao stood on the shore and looked at the dark water market in the sunset ahead, frowned and said, "Where is the boat? Where is Jiang Bin?"

Wang An looked around and suddenly pointed to the lake in the north of the street and said, "Where are you? It turns out that you want to board the boat from the water pier."

Zhu Houzhao also saw the boat. It was the dragon boat that he had not been on for a long time. Seeing the dragon boat and looking at the scene in front of him, Zhu Houzhao suddenly remembered the situation on the day when Liu Jin was in trouble. At that time, Jiang Bin and himself were on the dragon boat. Liu Jin ordered people to besiege the dragon boat on a small boat, but was stopped by Zhang Yanling and Jiang Bin and defeated by those who arrived in time.

Jiang Bin directed the dragon boat to slowly lean on the pier on the side of the water street market, jumped off the boat and kowtowed to Zhu Houzhao.

"I welcome the emperor. I have just taken a boat to walk around the lake. There is the highest night wind in the west of Qionghua Island, and the water is the most open, which is most suitable for watching the moon and drinking. I don't know that the emperor has come so early, so I have been waiting for a long time. Please forgive me." Jiang Bin said.

Zhu Hou looked at the dragon boat, decorated with palace lanterns, colorful curtains, and decorations. In the boat hall, there was a large round table with a pile of fruit and wine.

More than a dozen women in palace costumes stood in the boat hall, lowering their heads and not moving.

There is also a red carpet on the bow of the boat, and colorful balls are hung on the dragon's head on the bow.

Zhu Houzhao looked at the dragon boat and felt a little uncomfortable. Something was wrong, but it was indescribable. It seemed that the boat was too fancy and many of the decorations seemed redundant. With Zhu Houzhao's aesthetic, he didn't like these too fancy and cumbersome decorations. However, thinking that this was Jiang Bin's thoughts, Zhu Houzhao didn't say anything. Jiang Bin is a warrior, so do you expect him to have any good aesthetics?

"Since you are ready, let's get on the boat?" Zhu Houzhao said with a smile.

Jiang Bin nodded and said, "Please take the boat,

Zhu Houzhao nodded, and Jiang Bin immediately ordered several guards who were raising the boat to set up the springboard. Jiang Bin stretched out his arms and asked Zhu Houzhao to support him. The two of them slowly got on the bow of the dragon boat.

Everyone on the boat knelt down to welcome the emperor. Zhu Houzhao waved his hands into the boat hall and sat on the Grand Master chair with bamboo cushions prepared for him.

Jiang Bin ordered the boat to slowly leave the shore, and bypass the empty water market, thinking about walking on the large open water area on the west side of Qionghua Island. Soon, the cool breeze on the lake surface blew into the boat hall, which was extremely cool and comfortable. Zhu Houzhao's mood immediately improved.

"Jiang Bin, the lake is really cool. It's even more comfortable than in the palace." Zhu Houzhao said with a smile.

Jiang Bin stood beside Zhu Houzhao, bowed and smiled, "Of course. And look, the moon has actually risen, and after a while the sunlight disappears, you can enjoy the moon. The time is just right."

Zhu Houzhao turned her head and looked into the east sky through the open long window of the boat hall. In the twilight, the sky was dark blue and deep. A full moon hung on the treetops. Tonight was indeed a full moon.

Because tonight is July 15th, today is the Zhongyuan Festival.
