84 The First Night

The day flies by, and in the blink of an eye, it's night again. Zhu Shiyang spent a day alone, and didn't see Zhu Shiji until dinner, but Lu Wenyuan didn't come out to eat because of the many affairs at hand. Seeing that the three of them gathered less and left more, and the departure time was imminent, Zhu Shiyang felt a little uncomfortable, After dinner, he couldn't stay in his room, so he came out to talk to Zhu Shiji.

Zhu Shiji's bedroom is in Zhu Shiyang's front yard. Zhu Shiyang came out of the room, first went around the back garden to take a look, and saw the faint candle flame in Lu Wenyuan's room, so he smiled unconsciously, and then followed the path to the front yard.

Zhu Shiji was lying on the couch looking at the top of the tent, and when he saw Zhu Shiyang pushing the door in, he hurriedly sat up and greeted, "Why is the imperial brother here?" Isn't there any rest at this hour? ”

Zhu Shiyang closed the door behind him, and said in a daze: "What, are you going to sleep?" ”

Zhu Shiji said with a smile: "Where, it's still early, the imperial brother came just in time this time." ”

Zhu Shiyang heard that he seemed to have something to say, so he went to the side of the bed and sat down, Zhu Shiji said excitedly: "Brother Chen went to the Lin family in the city today to enjoy the paintings, and got two new landscapes of Pei Yuanzhi, a famous man of this dynasty, do you want to take a look?" ”

Zhu Shiyang didn't mean to come here this time, but when he saw him say this, he couldn't bear to brush off his kindness, so he nodded. Zhu Shiji jumped out of bed, flipped through the opposite desk, took two volumes of paintings back, and the two of them unfolded the paintings to take a look, only to see that the gestures were magnificent, the framing was majestic, the pine and thin stones, the raging waves and wild waters, worthy of being made by a famous artist.

Zhu Shiji liked it very much, and was hesitating whether to transfer a painting to Zhu Shiyang, but when he raised his eyes, he saw that he was uncertain, as if his mind was not on this. Zhu Shiji couldn't help laughing and said: "Brother Huang seems to have something on his mind, how can he still frown when he looks at this landscape painting?" Isn't Pei Yuanzhi the emperor's favorite painter, and once said that as long as he is willing to participate in the imperial examination, he will be promoted to be the champion. ”

Zhu Shiyang came back to his senses and said with a wry smile: "That's just a joke for me, I can't take it seriously." No matter how good he paints, it does not mean that he has the ability to govern the country, and besides, Pei Yuanzhi is unruly, and he may not be willing to stoop to things. As for the matter on my mind, I really have a matter, but I don't know if King Kangping is willing to listen. ”

Zhu Shiji hurriedly said: "It is the duty of the younger brother to be able to share the worries of the imperial brother, but it is okay for the imperial brother to say it." As he spoke, he put the two scrolls of paintings in the silk jacket and put them away, waiting for Zhu Shiyang to speak.

Zhu Shiyang was a little embarrassed at this time, lowered his head and muttered for a while, before he raised his head and said slowly: "I seem to have some meaning to Lu Wenyuan, but I don't know what Lu Wenyuan means, you have always been more good at these things than me, can you ask him for me?" Later, his voice became lower and lower, and he only opened a pair of eyes wide, looking at Zhu Shiji in embarrassment.

Zhu Shiji listened to his meaning, and was a little confused at first, but then gradually understood, smiled a little surprised, and said, "Isn't this a matter between the imperial brother and Lord Lu?" How can the younger brother go and ask? ”

Zhu Shiyang became more and more anxious, blushed and said: "I also know that this is a matter between Lu Wenyuan and two people, but I just can't ask, I have never done this before." ”

Seeing him look like this, Zhu Shiji looked like a young man who had just fallen in love, not like a king who had read countless things, and couldn't help but feel a little cute, and said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this, my brother has a ready-made method, and try him." The royal brother can pretend to marry Lord Lu, if Lord Lu insists on refusing to accept it, then it means ......"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhu Shiyang: "That's not good!" If he agrees, what will I do? ”

Zhu Shiji smiled and said, "Isn't the imperial brother going to condemn him?" In this way, it is easier to do, the royal brother is the son of heaven, and there is no reason to get what you want? According to the younger brother, he directly sent Lord Lu to the bed, and he didn't dare to refuse when he thought about it. ”

Zhu Shiyang still shook his head and said, "I still need you to teach this?" I really think very highly of him, and unlike those courtiers in the past, I need your affection and my willingness. ”

Zhu Shiji sighed: "Brother Huang's request is really many. ”

Zhu Shiyang was puzzled: "That's why I want you to say it for me." I don't know much about this, and if I say something wrong, and make both of us unhappy, wouldn't it be self-defeating? ”

Zhu Shiji lowered his head and thought about it. Zhu Shiyang stared at him nervously, until he saw him raise his head and smiled bitterly: "Okay, then the younger brother will reluctantly go and give it a try." Then he rejoiced again, and personally arranged his clothes, and sent him out of the door, and stood at the door anxiously waiting.

After I don't know how much time passed, Zhu Shiyang was anxious in his heart, and he was already a little uneasy, and only then did he hear a sound of footsteps outside, and someone was rushing here. Zhu Shiyang was shocked, and sure enough, he saw Zhu Shiji push the door in again.

Zhu Shiyang's heart beat wildly, and when he saw that Zhu Shiji came back alone, and Lu Wenyuan was not followed behind him, he became more and more worried, grabbed him and asked, "How is it?" Did you say that? ”

Zhu Shiji feasted with a smile on his face, and said, "Brother Huang will know when he goes to see." ”

Seeing him like this, Zhu Shiyang guessed that this matter was a good thing, and he was stunned for a while, then he was ecstatic, turned around and pushed the door and rushed out.

Lu Wenyuan's garden is still faintly lit by candles, and only vague shadows are left in the night with rare wood and strange stones, and there are occasional autumn insects chirping in the surroundings, which makes the whole courtyard extremely quiet. Zhu Shiyang took three steps and two steps into the porch, calmed his breath at the door, and then raised his hand to push the door and walked in.

Lu Wenyuan was sitting in front of the bookcase and writing, when he heard the sound, he didn't turn his head, but the tip of the pen was frozen on the paper and didn't move, obviously because his thoughts had been distracted by the chaos of his mind. Zhu Shiyang coughed dryly, moved a chair and sat next to Lu Wenyuan, looked at him and said, "What do I mean, King Kangping told you?" ”

Lu Wenyuan said softly: "Go back to the emperor, I said it." ”

Zhu Shiyang said eagerly: "Then what do you think?" "The love is so good that even the voice trembles a little.

How do you know that Lu Wenyuan's side face was unexciting, and he put the brush on the edge of the inkstone, and then said lightly: "The emperor really wants to know?" ”

Zhu Shiyang saw that his jade-like face looked calm, which was very different from what he had expected before, and he was flustered in his heart, and said, "Of course I want to know." ”

Lu Wenyuan's eyes only wandered on the bronze lampstand of the imitation Shang Zhou in the corner of the case, and said: "The emperor's wishes, the ministers have received them, but they can't accept it, I just ask the emperor to treat the ministers like other ministers of the previous dynasty." ”

Zhu Shiyang's heart was cold, he didn't expect such a statement before, but he really didn't want to think about it, but now when he heard it, he only felt harsh, and he was stunned and speechless for a while. Lu Wenyuan was also a little gloomy, bowed his head and said: "It is not without reason that the minister refuses the emperor, the monarch knows people, and you must be calm, so that you can distinguish loyalty and treachery, and will not be deceived by others. If the emperor gets too much favor, even if the ministers are self-purifying, they will inevitably attract discussions, so how can they devote themselves to the country. The minister asked the emperor to think twice. ”

How Zhu Shiyang didn't know the horror of public opinion in the court, but he was even more afraid that he would not get Lu Wenyuan, so he hurriedly said: "I will naturally protect you, no matter how rampant that class of officials is, they will not dare to be powerful in front of me." ”

He swore by it, but when he saw that Lu Wenyuan still lowered his eyes slightly, he bowed his head and said nothing, so he turned his shoulder and said, "Lu Wenyuan, you look at me, what did King Kangping tell you?" I look at your past situation, it's not that you are unsympathetic to me, otherwise how would you blush every time you look at me, and that day in the inn by the canal, wouldn't you also be for me...... The words you just said were only to persuade me not to mess with the former courtiers, and there was no mention of what you yourself thought. In this way, can I think that you are also interested in me, but you are just hindering many truths and refusing to show it easily. ”

Zhu Shiyang said, becoming more and more anxious, and seeing that Lu Wenyuan always lowered his head and refused to look at him, he reached out and pinched his chin to force him to raise his face. Lu Wenyuan couldn't resist him, his demeanor became flustered, he changed his calm and composure, his eyes met the emperor's young and handsome face, and his face turned red, struggling to break free from him. Zhu Shiyang's heart moved, brought him closer to him, and said, "Lu Wenyuan, you look at me and repeat Fang Cai's words." ”

Lu Wenyuan saw that the emperor's handsome face was a stone's throw away from him, and the two pupils were as black as a deep pool, almost submerging himself, how could he still speak, how could he have no affection for the emperor in his heart? Fang Cai's calm words could only be said by avoiding his fiery gaze, and now that they were looking at each other, Lu Wenyuan only had the share of Zhiwu.

Zhu Shiyang showed a playful smile and said, "Okay, you just refused to look at me, it turned out that you just wanted to say something against your will." I almost got cheated by you! Saying that, he simply hugged him to his lap, Lu Wenyuan was even more flustered, Zhu Shiyang smiled secretly, held down his hands that were struggling wildly, and kissed him on the lips with his head down.

The charm in this is charming, needless to say, if you want to refuse, you don't have to say it, when the kiss is over, Lu Wenyuan has long been out of breath, but Zhu Shiyang is a veteran in this, and he is at ease, staring at his wet and red lips that were sucked by himself and said, "Say it now, what do you mean to me?" ”

Lu Wenyuan shrunk into a ball in his arms, Zhu Shiyang didn't force him, he only reached out to probe somewhere on his body, Lu Wenyuan opened his eyes in shock, and reached out to protect the place on his body that would not lie. Zhu Shiyang became more and more proud, and touched the non-existent mustache on his chin like those old ministers of the former dynasty, and smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed together: "Well, I already know your intentions." ”

Lu Wenyuan was embarrassed. Zhu Shiyang smiled brightly, and picked him up into the bed tent. 166 Reading Network
