Chapter 66: A Night Visit
"The concubine doesn't have to worry too much. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info," Helian said as he stood up from Feng. "The fourth brother is in trouble, I should help, this is a brotherhood, there is no need to think about it. Miss Fu wouldn't mind. ”
Don't mind? It's weird if you don't mind. But doesn't mind what's the point? Fu Yanxi couldn't help but scold.
After waiting for a long time, Fu Qingyan, who finally found an opportunity to speak, slowly stood up at this time, saluted the emperor, and then said: "Emperor Qi, the third prince, the fourth prince, brother and brother, the minister is extremely admired. It's just that the little girl doesn't know how to count etiquette when she is young, and she just saw the dancing skills of the second princess, and she was shocked, and she accidentally knocked over the wine glass and soiled her clothes, so she didn't dare to lose her honor in front of the emperor, and asked the emperor to forgive her sins. After speaking, he bowed down and confessed.
Fu Yanxi also got up when she heard this: "Please forgive the emperor." As he spoke, he also knelt down with Fu Qingyan.
Fu Yanxi got up, and everyone saw that there was a wetness at the hem of her emerald dress, which was very obvious.
Seeing this, the emperor didn't want to force it, so he only said: "You are the Fu Yanxi who became famous in a poem at the chrysanthemum banquet?" ”
"The courtiers are terrified." Fu Yanxi didn't dare to think that the emperor would remember her name, so she could only reply with some trepidation.
"That's a nice kid. No wonder Cher admires you so much before she has ever seen you. The Emperor continued.
"The courtiers are praised by the emperor and the second princess, and they dare not be ashamed." Fu Yanxi replied.
"Father, when I saw Sister Fu in my mother's harem today, my sons liked it more and more." Helian Yexue had already returned to her seat at this time, and she was so delicate that she coquettishly said to the emperor: "Father, just look at the face of your son, don't let Sister Fu kneel, you scared her." ”
Fu Yanxi's face was a little embarrassed when she leaned on the ground, Her Royal Highness the Second Princess, she is not so timid.
"Haha, please hurry up," the emperor laughed and said, "This matter is the rudeness of my fourth son, and I hope Fu Aiqing will not be surprised." Fu Yanxi, my second daughter has a very strange temperament, it is rare to match anyone, since Xue'er likes you so much, he can often enter the palace to accompany Xue'er as a companion in the future. ”
Fu Qingyan said respectfully: "The minister doesn't dare." ”
Fu Yanxi said: "Emperor Xie, the second princess, the courtiers obey the order!" ”
Even if this scene was revealed, the emperor seemed to be in a very good mood, and asked the ministers to drink as much as they wanted. But many people's hearts have already changed their hearts.
The three princes and the imperial concubines and the king of Hengyang were very suspicious in their hearts, although the emperor may just say some polite words, showing the demeanor of loving his courtiers, but such a public promotion of Fu Qingyan, Fu Yanxi's mother and daughter, is not the emperor's consistent style. It is a big matter to seize the heir, and the slightest disturbance today cannot be ignored.
Fu Qinglin's heart was even more uncomfortable. Recently, all kinds of signs in the officialdom and court and at today's banquet have made him feel more and more that King Hengyang's speculation that day is reasonable, and his inscrutable eldest brother is likely to have already taken refuge in the emperor.
Although the crown prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince are all adults, the emperor's body is still tough, and if there is no accident, at least for ten years, the new emperor will not be in turn. In other words, Fu Qingyan can rely on the emperor's favor to have a smooth official career.
But as for him, supporting the three princes is just a big gamble, either ascending to the sky in one step, or never ascending. Besides, he has to wait for more than ten years. The jealousy and redness of my eldest brother for so many years all came to my heart in an instant, and it was extremely unbalanced.
It's night.
There was a faint candlelight jumping in the large study of the Dingbei Hou Mansion, and Fu Qingyan sat in front of the table, staring at the rising green smoke in the incense burner in contemplation.
In the darkness where the candlelight could not be found, stood a tall body, and the two sat silently for a long time, speechless to each other.
"Today's things, Lord Hou has seen everything." The dark shadow said.
"Yes, it's too obvious." Fu Qingyan nodded and said, "Is it a temptation or a real deployment?" ”
"It shouldn't be a temptation, they have repeatedly hit a wall in Jiangnan recently, so they should be in a hurry." The shadow scoffed.
"What did the emperor say?" Fu Qingyan asked.
"We gave up too many chips in order to let their guard down and lure the snake out of the hole, but now it's time to get it back step by step." The black shadow clenched his fists sharply, and then let go.
"What do you need me to do?" Fu Qingyan continued to ask.
The shadow didn't speak, but just stood up and walked over to the table, picked up a brush and wrote two words on the paper.
"Duanyang." Fu Qingyan read softly.
The shadow picked up the piece of paper and placed it on the candlelight and slowly lit it, and everything disappeared with the firelight.
"Are you okay?" Fu Qingyan looked at the resolute side face of the black shadow and asked with concern.
"Master Hou and I seem to be in the same condition." The dark shadow paused, and his tone was suddenly filled with infinite sadness. "The days of celebration of others are times of our sorrow."
"You kid......" Fu Qingyan didn't know whether to pity or cry or laugh, and it took a long time to say such a sentence.
Jade Xuan.
Fu Yanxi on the bed has turned over countless times. The winter night is long and difficult, and the snoring of Zhihua outside seems to come from nothing, but Fu Yanxi can't sleep. It always seemed like something unusual was going to happen this night.
She got up in her clothes, endured the coldness in the air, quickly got dressed, wrapped herself in a mink cloak, and didn't dare to alarm Zhihua and Yuqi, who were asleep, quietly opened the door and walked into the courtyard.
I don't know when, it snowed again, and the courtyard was white. The plum tree that the man had relied on many months ago was gone. Today, only dead branches remain, supporting the weight of the snow that has been uncleared.
Why do you think of that person again? Fu Yanxi shook her head helplessly, not knowing what was wrong with her.
Plum blossom. In her world, the man always seemed to have a constant connection with plum blossoms. I also wanted to ask him if the plum blossom hosta that was broken in two was picked up by him, or if he threw it away when he was hiding from Fu Zi'an.
She just brought the hosta, and how much she kept it could be a thought.
However, Plum Blossom, he is really similar to Plum Blossom. Lonely and arrogant may be him in the eyes of many people. Why didn't she see that? Unfathomable, mysterious, a bit weird, and inconsistent.
Today he is openly drunk and dissolute at the palace banquet, which seems to go against the image he has always shown to be an outsider. I think that since then, others have commented on him again-absurd.
His father really didn't seem to like him, and his brother and sister had no respect for him, so what kind of person was he?
A dead branch could not bear the weight of the snow, and it broke with a "snap" and fell to the ground.
Fu Yanxi woke up from her thoughts, only to realize that she had been thinking about Helian Congyu all night.
It must be a demon, it must be.
