「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45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxbZyofpsm
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3hHasWNF9
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpYIWS8hT5
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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MwMx5GUGv
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxh9W4qAFv
他來陵冕的新年第一縷曙光，是和她一起看的。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhDn0bRnUp
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkM0860rQJZ
莫歌陵的眼眸動了一下看向他，屈少勤趕緊轉了回來。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFlxQzrxkT
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgcmpoQvck
「……，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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVk9gwhIEoC
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkcayhcGzf
「奉祭品！」早已準備好的祭官開始焚燒三牲五穀，直至焚燒畢。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfRf9Iu7iq
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9BeZ781DB
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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1NqP8E2VM
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExcywXNKfv
「退壇！」凌星走後，文武百官依序離開。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSVjifISQQ
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jHEYS7cST
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTNxeKNM18
祭天大典結束，屈少勤回府補覺不過四個時辰，便又要進宮。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGL1yIEz06k
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0uE9iaxT6
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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorUlIQft4t
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCGZSkUtgz
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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kugpl0Xmm
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpYNbtiEcl
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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXAVL1fwyo
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHawD92fwf
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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbjJFOC7aJ
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBbThy17QD
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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPALUfm94dP
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDMuEoXkfS
不久之後，凌星來了，身後還跟著幾個妃嬪。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6KEyQ3elw
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0YrGdSzvz
「參見陛下，參見娘娘。」45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3FW2yQMDk
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLs2nrg00O
「免禮。」凌星先是說了一些場面話，然後和眾臣敬酒。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoEGrKu7eY
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DF7SAtvGz
屈少勤知道自己酒量不怎麼樣，只敢抿一小口。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IRlwyHJS2
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDb8UwpwDuO
隨著宴會開始，絲竹管絃之聲縈繞，不絕於耳，眾人推杯換盞。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJEJRTo5Pv
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfYAu0iF0R
酒過三巡，屈少勤本在默默低頭吃著菜，「承恩王殿下。」45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfSs9OI4UG
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbpYIacvTh
三個大臣端著酒杯站在他的桌子前，「臣敬你一杯。」45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSUqLPY3TG
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsApftmHQmR
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？45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xbxwV9UeU
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ529XrSeN33
然而令他沒想到的是，走了一撥又來一撥，他看的頭皮發麻。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ltmq4lwqI
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBFgSAJfll
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！45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZ9cNcOleI
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFNrmg7PLP
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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TIiXsyYWE
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgojRmi46JH
「各位大人可別都只和承恩王喝啊。」45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqedfMsejtu
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiAHhgTz50
「莫元帥，這您說的哪裡話……」45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZS5QFlrJs
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2cHx1QVDw
「那就來。」她倒滿酒樽，一杯一個，不少人就被引過去了。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCI2mSXUx6
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYuIN0jtYA
「歌陵的酒量還是一如繼往的好啊。」凌星似笑非笑道。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXG2mlwJfS
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3vjhn42lG
「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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4goXPFf3F0
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4Gmug00UJ
「承恩王的生辰是何時啊？」45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrGWXwkZFW
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRdnJFYTK6
「回陛下，是一月廿三。」45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMX9BSzDlur
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOzviGVLUD
「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。」45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSXoslLle6
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGHtnc9Pb8
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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DIX8d7IoU
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntDMUWpVbJ
「錢愛卿，此事交給禮部了。」45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5x8w8fjPSc
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvCL8Lhw32
「是。」45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8SFfeFxNC
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY56TwBMW3c
屈少勤不好再多說什麼，只好沈默。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJyObHucAE
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVFsYVEapE
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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGsV1uYBeR
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1SuWiLih4
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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3geaekyHa
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5Jv0IzzdL
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIelaFCVzq
宮宴持續了兩個時辰才結束，回府的時候，是亥時。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4o7LXVDRM
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9PDOBzmJv
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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94zdfbZxLD
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8zp75fBPI
「今天沒醉吧？」45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNW2cIvljZh
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCDWs17DZc
「還好。」其實已經微醺，不過他沒有說出來。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfn7LvGNA3
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡau0zfP6vsN
「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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LCeDO5n3V
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQGh1qR5WZ
「你似乎很會與他們打交道？」45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIur7Q99HxM
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnYyPlaGm4
「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。」45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xjQz03MsP
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLYhtOTf46
「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？」45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tLl5Nvozn
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hZWLFVNfh
莫歌陵說著不禁心有戚戚焉。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6UVwGZ5ub
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbysfQjW7l
「你走到今天的位子上，一定很辛苦。」45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0qo6vKJRf
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpdI8zsawh
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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvxFSyLMK9
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnwRoD6iUs
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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHdMmIVZ8u
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlflM9x7uQ
「都過去了，習慣之後，也沒什麼。」45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVtaIdTCM7
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEn1VOA1CUc
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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqSpdJkuzE
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxBc0Y3f29
於是沉默持續到石徑坊和錦繡坊的岔路。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSszeFGsq6t
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRSBBwxTdb
「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。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UMfZV881O
45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjTt3JlDgZ
「走吧。」良久，他說。45Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nyTx4nXcu
