「歲首之晨，吾於陵冕見曙光初照，彼伴吾側，忽生一願，願此後歲歲年年，長有今朝。曆兩百四十一年，一月初一記。」——行勉手劄32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBc2nFsWKJ
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQ4ITYElAR
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMyE1DscO6
屈少勤微微側頭，熹微的晨光正好照在莫歌陵半張臉，一面是明，一面是暗。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVJ0WVajmZ
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4K3FeF4BN
他來陵冕的新年第一縷曙光，是和她一起看的。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EDYwWmzxv
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFTSjy1n2v
莫歌陵的眼眸動了一下看向他，屈少勤趕緊轉了回來。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2pDVdmQpi
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKrb5bpg7U
「……，至此再拜，伏願俯察，謹奉此文，以昭我志。」話語落下的同時，天光大亮，映照雪白大地，凌星把祝文放進火盆。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcrhy24zuh
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWu6uksEs4P
「奉祭品！」早已準備好的祭官開始焚燒三牲五穀，直至焚燒畢。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQY0VPorOw
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsFSnUxhQC
禮官開始宣讀送神詞，太常寺再次起奏，之後，凌星又行三跪九叩之禮。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SX2mjW32w
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZorcbsMOU5
「退壇！」凌星走後，文武百官依序離開。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahAt7zbUze
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFG7ONvLTW
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRc2CNgvKDL
祭天大典結束，屈少勤回府補覺不過四個時辰，便又要進宮。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3CJ8fWXYJ
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqlW2L6vii
酉時年宴開宴，這次不同於接風宴，過年是普天同慶，被邀請的人自然又更多，到處都是生面孔。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjR2fqXtjw8
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSXgLZ4V2i
好在這次他的席位在莫歌陵旁邊，不過那麼多雙眼睛看著，他們也不能過多交流。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMenjGEKwlH
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Gy74IIlRu
只看到不少大臣來來去去的，趁凌星還沒到來和莫歌陵寒暄，她臉上掛著笑容，遊走在各個官員之間。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYgh6847UP
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2rIeRRHTg
她知道很多東西，什麼人來和她說什麼，都能回上一兩句，在這個名利場，她游刃有餘。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5NrDYj4mg
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rG6btS9aB
屈少勤不知道當官需不需要要天賦，但他可以肯定自己無法這樣帶著面具說話。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBmx0eiwwh
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECESwV5qCo
不久之後，凌星來了，身後還跟著幾個妃嬪。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDfsHVMtCk
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBu1EU03qbj
「參見陛下，參見娘娘。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJ0rFZKVUm
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEpSBxEowA
「免禮。」凌星先是說了一些場面話，然後和眾臣敬酒。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtHmdSbzqT
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRqWEJIrwJ
屈少勤知道自己酒量不怎麼樣，只敢抿一小口。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPmHdiEsd2
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7j6aDBZJW
隨著宴會開始，絲竹管絃之聲縈繞，不絕於耳，眾人推杯換盞。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyqC4PVY8U
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmwAKVl9X2
酒過三巡，屈少勤本在默默低頭吃著菜，「承恩王殿下。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleSs9XUphU
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugAzwvWuIm
三個大臣端著酒杯站在他的桌子前，「臣敬你一杯。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ICd3q6hOI
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlbeSnqnoY
他認出其中一個人是王澤安，也許是說過話的人分外熟悉，他也端起酒杯，一杯而已，應該沒關係吧？32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YbczNx0vp
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtWRMvIl0B
然而令他沒想到的是，走了一撥又來一撥，他看的頭皮發麻。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjOXqLaAMq
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRjIGVByjG
上次三杯就倒，宮宴的酒雖不烈，但他也不知道自己究竟能承受多少啊！32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbO15JJBwP
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOcC1aCZU8
趁著被敬酒的間隙，他悄悄遞了一個求救的眼神給莫歌陵，她挑了挑眉，拎著酒壺靠過去。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjLx7SkVck
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMP9HB4T7vU
「各位大人可別都只和承恩王喝啊。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHv9GDxDmE
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX07sflIy0x
「莫元帥，這您說的哪裡話……」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZY3at5Lc9a
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wcxxG1WGg
「那就來。」她倒滿酒樽，一杯一個，不少人就被引過去了。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFZkNDvee9
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6v5Q2U2Q3
「歌陵的酒量還是一如繼往的好啊。」凌星似笑非笑道。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16bOIktm6p
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJU4HkRTml
「陛下謬贊，喝習慣自然也就好了。」凌星撇了一眼屈少勤，說起別的事。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9OYRnH4ti
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHwukwkIMx
「承恩王的生辰是何時啊？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgotbze9xQI
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUqWBYeAHH
「回陛下，是一月廿三。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlmkNRLivw
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePQr9BxdPk
「看愛卿們都這麼熱情，到時候給你辦一個生辰宴，讓你們好好熟悉熟悉。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWc1v5U4qio
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9An1Xyd00
屈少勤摸不著頭腦，不懂凌星此舉何意，正在想怎麼拒絕，凌星卻直接拍板定案。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgc369XANQM
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYwm6HTFrK
「錢愛卿，此事交給禮部了。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4zinlkVxd
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwW38qO4EZ
「是。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukK0RHNzTa
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAOIa7Wn49
屈少勤不好再多說什麼，只好沈默。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡileUKO2Tjz
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5Q2izNj2k
凌星掃了一眼身旁的凌霜，她看向屈少勤的眼神雖平靜，卻多次藉著飲酒頻頻打量。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMamE25MzGE
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpzpXonAtz
他心一沉，雖知凌霜與顧昶感情甚篤，但凌星始終沒料到，這份感情會深到即使凌霜已經忘記了顧昶的臉，卻還是會對與他相似的人產生興趣。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxpNQENb94
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWj2QuNoR8
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEy8JPzvuG
宮宴持續了兩個時辰才結束，回府的時候，是亥時。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazopDvctGm
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2VjAd6xMv
莫歌陵和屈少勤避開人群，走進小巷後，屈少勤立刻拉開車簾，莫歌陵趨馬上前。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZUe4etTkQ
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2hEPyd5uW
「今天沒醉吧？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIewr6pzYb
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TrkE3ISvS
「還好。」其實已經微醺，不過他沒有說出來。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOuo0u0vmZ
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8JVklBK52
「以後遇到這種情況，你就裝醉，提前脫身。」屈少勤點了下頭，想起剛剛宮宴上那一幕。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJz0vyshcVm
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHnPEkbykl
「你似乎很會與他們打交道？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32OZVh0UUd
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡps8Pe2CeVM
「初時我亦不懂世故，直到真正做到統領的位子，才知馭下和人情交際才能讓我在官場上走得更遠，更穩。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BsDQ7BE8S
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ738uvTIImY
「酒在這個名利場是最佳利器，酒過三巡，每個人便如同帶上一層面具，說的話真真假假，有幾分真情實意，局中人是酩酊還是清醒，誰又知道呢？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XfydPBfSl
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJzYnVCyuR
莫歌陵說著不禁心有戚戚焉。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKpWY1XWY0
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Aiu7Stq9D
「你走到今天的位子上，一定很辛苦。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6wrzLdM0C
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuzTiYKiCS
什麼樣的人，能年紀輕輕就身居高位，運氣、實力缺一不可，可是她十歲就過著這樣的生活，汲汲營營，處心積慮。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVXdiRpTm8
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQa4RtMJge
雖然平時和別留伊、陌上花待在一起時有些幼稚，但到底還是官場摸爬滾打過來的。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNQAe9ccuh
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftAM80tiV3
「都過去了，習慣之後，也沒什麼。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuKby6ZOkZ
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LcAnAYX7I
她垂眸，和屈少勤合拍是另一回事，他們之間的關係，還沒有好到能讓她毫無顧忌的提起過去七年的往事。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTY8S1bOYJu
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNRZQqYPz6
於是沉默持續到石徑坊和錦繡坊的岔路。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiszLOkKq8
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLv969WymHB
「再會。」她策馬往那條掛滿大紅燈籠的街上去，屈少勤目送她走遠。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgX0HpXMZS
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhdphhTK4N
「走吧。」良久，他說。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeLCwuVqSA
