「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48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZy5NdI3yQ
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDMGIYXIIj
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggN9YnRSWp
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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRZgsDZ9QP
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXmwvDF658
他來陵冕的新年第一縷曙光，是和她一起看的。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEKHVI62MQ
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IcDPLZvbQ
莫歌陵的眼眸動了一下看向他，屈少勤趕緊轉了回來。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7sFL3iSvQ
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiSbTyjEy0
「……，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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVH7yq0jiGn
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtigVnvr4w
「奉祭品！」早已準備好的祭官開始焚燒三牲五穀，直至焚燒畢。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZH5kej8UzL
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtf0XU6dGbc
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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrotrrGTYX
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgf2zJZ2a4b
「退壇！」凌星走後，文武百官依序離開。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTopeXc3Iw
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrGDLFsddt
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgUfYOz4BI
祭天大典結束，屈少勤回府補覺不過四個時辰，便又要進宮。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8Llyhc2Jm
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDqhBdoVZi
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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpOwszOla1
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwI2LrtFEg
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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlR0D3FEzXo
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GRxRVEzcT
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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡob2kg3mNIw
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJCPDNDcDB
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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmUBdt9Z9o
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyKh6Pg2Gv
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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqViEpUWet
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGX20Uy622e
不久之後，凌星來了，身後還跟著幾個妃嬪。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOB7vwoRKz0
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuI2YTLGZIA
「參見陛下，參見娘娘。」48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpcgMgdtv7
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQlsOWaMWX
「免禮。」凌星先是說了一些場面話，然後和眾臣敬酒。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzIYYHitWh
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCKxuwXAHu
屈少勤知道自己酒量不怎麼樣，只敢抿一小口。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuR2pMoofed
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohRohyDtzc
隨著宴會開始，絲竹管絃之聲縈繞，不絕於耳，眾人推杯換盞。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOUPqUCe3K
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbrLISI4P3
酒過三巡，屈少勤本在默默低頭吃著菜，「承恩王殿下。」48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBT3vdI8xdq
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGMfRRB1li
三個大臣端著酒杯站在他的桌子前，「臣敬你一杯。」48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlt21qgikS1
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxTeW0APuj
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？48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgDQvziAlL
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIefNy3CM6P
然而令他沒想到的是，走了一撥又來一撥，他看的頭皮發麻。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9bsTu0CqZ
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvepZDb1sG
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！48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRb9xQa30h
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlfS6u0P8T
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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HENWHxFKf
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfBHO2JRyn
「各位大人可別都只和承恩王喝啊。」48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgePItHsINv
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOmi76xJZV
「莫元帥，這您說的哪裡話……」48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBrDUfz5Ak
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnUydg1tEt
「那就來。」她倒滿酒樽，一杯一個，不少人就被引過去了。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGxrdXGXOP
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5tweSmO3l
「歌陵的酒量還是一如繼往的好啊。」凌星似笑非笑道。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSSO96ksHW
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jfLU7jn7w
「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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNpRWK54rV
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELfNr3Go9p
「承恩王的生辰是何時啊？」48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJFlg6C3yQ
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoN26AglXl
「回陛下，是一月廿三。」48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjYRoxEXfj
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQJ7aUgaUV
「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。」48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiIrvo0CCe
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxEz7zGHKV
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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxKNHvzCtV
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqD6gYVVkm
「錢愛卿，此事交給禮部了。」48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmo1LfD73J7
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkgQc2mtnI
「是。」48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxp2Pn69nfo
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZxxqTKU2t
屈少勤不好再多說什麼，只好沈默。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7M82xLs7q
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1Xk2SStw7
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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOB9UGAHUuo
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UApGDq47b
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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwG1tx07nQ
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllI0HvUF3d
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDW8DM7xn1
宮宴持續了兩個時辰才結束，回府的時候，是亥時。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tBHTmLxyg
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQt6WkGr0w
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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRZhHdOsDU
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQBXq4dBx2
「今天沒醉吧？」48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqgsNezTun
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWIDf2g7Uy
「還好。」其實已經微醺，不過他沒有說出來。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjY5W75qUGC
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bqrfGCUh2
「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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnn7UiDzQQ6
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2N9uoEqOCI
「你似乎很會與他們打交道？」48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dKi5VODZe
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyDyiA4Uaa
「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。」48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIk2tjqoJMR
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOgIrBm4I3
「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？」48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI82zkytDjC
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFwFnAhXXu
莫歌陵說著不禁心有戚戚焉。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbE4zdUwuVE
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRebyjizulB
「你走到今天的位子上，一定很辛苦。」48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUnmWGSQ1b
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zJ8MtDmJb
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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBJF0EhNzE
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPl7EhfEvw
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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKWjfR4XEE
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYlY9MN5dq
「都過去了，習慣之後，也沒什麼。」48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88sqvDzbCf
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6rYTtnwIl
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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8li4UKDALO
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibWgvJw1O7
於是沉默持續到石徑坊和錦繡坊的岔路。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmx31EVlux5
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11zf9gFmql
「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。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aVrxRqAt6
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwEypXhIse
「走吧。」良久，他說。48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUbGAs41BY
