「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35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLZhc8LFNE
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DWpyR2d8R
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PVQFzCaHt
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AAmKqjse5
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FY66NU3sH
他來陵冕的新年第一縷曙光，是和她一起看的。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvOC26QKXm
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcotMAHeyjx
莫歌陵的眼眸動了一下看向他，屈少勤趕緊轉了回來。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ077aHEwijw
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOBFxYa9aT
「……，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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKe7TGsK2wc
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6SRX3t87N
「奉祭品！」早已準備好的祭官開始焚燒三牲五穀，直至焚燒畢。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWj4MMWdgKG
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyZYrAR1m6
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvTURy3Dpp
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrhTI1MKwR
「退壇！」凌星走後，文武百官依序離開。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgDHjSiitH
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrjFNBTTE9
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2FTovf8QO
祭天大典結束，屈少勤回府補覺不過四個時辰，便又要進宮。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANKfTJhif9
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7pSHZwy9j
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbD7ndDFV5
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4y572K3CDq
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5Xrcn82h4
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTvhtAKYkp
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxQpx2zFtc
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3G0BjSWUu1
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRwNtXiMVp
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYc00M8lvS
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1jjgk3ZE6
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQsSxRRfWY
不久之後，凌星來了，身後還跟著幾個妃嬪。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRZkAnCmbB
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTUT96mW1h
「參見陛下，參見娘娘。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uKY9dykx8
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMB2bPpgdLC
「免禮。」凌星先是說了一些場面話，然後和眾臣敬酒。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMHUTundVO
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAMGPxwUN2
屈少勤知道自己酒量不怎麼樣，只敢抿一小口。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyCXImEIEQ
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcEQ7YxgSm
隨著宴會開始，絲竹管絃之聲縈繞，不絕於耳，眾人推杯換盞。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0D0N40rFSB
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93DlDcO1cl
酒過三巡，屈少勤本在默默低頭吃著菜，「承恩王殿下。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjBaGn3SJn
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rj1eN6TWD
三個大臣端著酒杯站在他的桌子前，「臣敬你一杯。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbpNXyf8VM
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCxY1g1HHl
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？35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWilqJdYphh
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapKOEWStFr
然而令他沒想到的是，走了一撥又來一撥，他看的頭皮發麻。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHd5v6PLcwY
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfZuCnn5Su
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！35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzY1ZdCgbRy
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsAvR1Pb5C
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCz8NbdDdu
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5voQEy2WC
「各位大人可別都只和承恩王喝啊。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZwit64JU7
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcry90om4l
「莫元帥，這您說的哪裡話……」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgmLr13eyQ
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQwBvq9BLQ
「那就來。」她倒滿酒樽，一杯一個，不少人就被引過去了。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexCt0HAEc1
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXpMhk4H55
「歌陵的酒量還是一如繼往的好啊。」凌星似笑非笑道。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVpXn8kAvr
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCXKYfmlQ6
「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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSm7lk2q8JM
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQ4FbPXNag
「承恩王的生辰是何時啊？」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPu8NdFoOR
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiEHHkXSC8
「回陛下，是一月廿三。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3XAy6CHjU
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkQqd3qHzx
「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。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIZ7n9f13U
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrMEH6bAuQ
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLrpdaJdUF
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6bAv9Sxtp
「錢愛卿，此事交給禮部了。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVhrYa69ZP
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7qHESqmaS
「是。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIQ3ayQAQu
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKp8yOESii
屈少勤不好再多說什麼，只好沈默。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1jYjuHjN2
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8VQcoY5KV
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcs9dkoJ7F
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01goGYykov
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGfUglHu9P
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡga4X7lbVUK
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8YGu18lDf
宮宴持續了兩個時辰才結束，回府的時候，是亥時。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfjIWJvYAv
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEQaX8DQgb
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiWCE5oOqi
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhc3TSGdYNK
「今天沒醉吧？」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GVjkjfVKN
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8E3oLjmhN
「還好。」其實已經微醺，不過他沒有說出來。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9p1cm0583
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtEROIAcnB
「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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjWF6zJR3N
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ebu425hxE
「你似乎很會與他們打交道？」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqan8rnLSo
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXrmqTpKnw
「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。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfcO3wjFOj
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ032N0ezw6G
「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？」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpjZuMJLKT
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsyAwv0Les
莫歌陵說著不禁心有戚戚焉。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWW4OX2YMD
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZp0ycPAX78
「你走到今天的位子上，一定很辛苦。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrhCkrC8ij
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwoPNEgMf8
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkZetD7XXr
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbql7ZQTWPO
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmlRIAFfu6
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJpgPjzcEK
「都過去了，習慣之後，也沒什麼。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtmbkMHcEH
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGS4z08lrdf
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoF3fnuRrP
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0K8Rg6v6B
於是沉默持續到石徑坊和錦繡坊的岔路。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYf4vzZdGKl
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4A9gUmGyg
「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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxz79MJzORn
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdG9AeOGDZb
「走吧。」良久，他說。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRh5eqY7ZmZ
