Chapter 101: The night is quiet
[Chapter 101 - The Night is Quiet] I just think it's good
"Girl, do you remember what that man looked like that day?" Shen Qianfan asked.
Li Que nodded.
Shen Qianfan summoned his subordinates and asked him to find a painter in Dakun City to come to the mansion as quickly as possible.
"Do you want to go out for a walk at night?" Duan Baiyue asked.
"The city is in a depression now, and I'm afraid I won't even have a light when I go out." Chu Yuan said, "What are you going to do?" ”
"Distracted." Duan Baiyue said, "I don't care if there is a view outside, I'm afraid that you will be stuffy in the house." ”
Chu Yuan sat on the stone bench and said, "I don't want to move, I'm tired." ”
"You're tired." Duan Baiyue stood behind him and gently rubbed his temples for him, "Li Que's head is handed over to me, you can save your energy and deal with military and political affairs with peace of mind." ”
Chu Yuan leaned back in his arms, basking in the sun with his eyes closed.
"When the battle on the White Kirisle Island side is over, when do you plan to deal with Chu Xiang's side?" Duan Baiyue asked.
Chu Yuan said: "After this battle, the Great Chu Navy will be redeployed, and it will take a year at most to recuperate, and then it will go south in one fell swoop and directly attack the Feimen Star Continent." ”
Duan Baiyue nodded: "Then I'll go back to the southwest first and guard the area around Guanhai City for you." ”
Chu Yuan held his hand: "Hmm." ”
"It doesn't matter." Duan Baiyue bent down around him and whispered in his ear, "If you miss me, write a letter, and I will come to the royal city to see you." ”
Chu Yuan pouted: "I want you to do something." ”
"Don't you really want to go out for a walk?" Duan Baiyue said, "Just take it as a steal, there are people coming and going in this palace, and they are panicking." ”
"Wen Aiqing will come later." Chu Yuan said.
Then it's even more important to go. Duan Baiyue pulled him up and forcibly took him out of the mansion.
Chu Yuan patted his head with a folding fan: "Bold." ”
Duan Baiyue asked, "What will you be punished this time?" ”
"You will not be allowed to eat meat for three days." Chu Yuan bought a hat on the side of the street and held it in his hand and shook it, "Since you went out, why don't you go to the beach?" ”
Duan Baiyue nodded, and the two walked along the zigzag alley to the outside of the city.
The sea is a little windy, and there are not many people. The twilight was dull, and there was a faint roar in the distance, and the waves splashed and shattered on the black rocks, and even the ground trembled beneath their feet.
Duan Baiyue carefully wrapped him in a cloak.
Chu Yuan said: "If you stay here for a while, your heart will indeed be more happy." ”
"Do you like the beach?" Duan Baiyue stretched out her hand and wrapped it around his shoulder, "There is an island near Wangxi Reef, I bought it?" In the future, we will live together. ”
"Calculate carefully, you have already occupied more than a dozen houses, to say the least." Chu Yuan looked at him funny, "From the desert to the South China Sea, it really doesn't work if the local master is outside." ”
"There are still decades to go." Duan Baiyue said, "Every two or three years, if you are tired of living by the sea, go to the mountains, so that you don't always feel bored in one place." ”
"How can there be so many things, I have been in the palace for more than 20 years, and I haven't come here as usual." Chu Yuan wrapped his cloak tightly.
"That's different." Duan Baiyue said, "It's because I've been bored for too long that I have to make up for it in the future." Although this country is yours, but now there are too many burdens, and when the burden on your shoulders is lifted in the future, I will take you from north to south to see all the scenery. ”
Chu Yuan withdrew his hand and asked, "It's time to be old then, what should I do?" ”
"It's just right to be old." Duan Baiyue touched his forehead with him, "I'll carry you on my back." ”
Chu Yuan pouted: "Can you still carry it?" ”
"If you eat less, I will be able to carry it." Duan Baiyue swore an oath.
Chu Yuan smiled and stretched out his hand to pat him away: "Poor." ”
"It's not called poverty, it's trying to make you happy." Duan Baiyue said, "Seeing that the sky is going to rain, go back?" ”
Chu Yuan shook his head: "Stay for a while." ”
Duan Baiyue said: "If you stay for a while, it will be raining." ”
Chu Yuan asked rhetorically: "What if it's raining?" ”
"It's not going to happen, but the wind chill is not good yet, and if you want to get wet, you have to wait for later." Duan Baiyue jumped off the reef with him, "If you think there is trouble in the prince's mansion, I will take you to live in another place." ”
"Where?" Chu Yuan asked.
"You'll know when you go." Duan Baiyue sells Guanzi.
Chu Yuan raised his eyebrows and followed him all the way into the city. The sky was getting darker, and the clouds were rolling in the sky, and it was about to rain. The two stopped in front of an inn, a string of red lanterns swayed in the wind, and the plaque had been baptized by wind and frost, leaving only mottled four big characters - Haiya Xiaozhu.
"Where else are you going?" Chu Yuan said, "It's just an inn." ”
"There's no other place in the city to rest." Duan Baiyue said, "Although it looks a little shabby on the outside, the inside is also clean and tidy, and the food is also cooked well, why don't you spend the night here tonight?" ”
"Opposite is the palace, why do you want to stay in the guest house?" Chu Yuan asked.
"It's quiet here." Duan Baiyue said, "It should be considered to be sympathetic to the people's feelings." ”
"With you making trouble, you can be sympathetic to something." Chu Yuan patted his chest and reached out to open the door.
Xiao Er was napping behind the counter, and hurriedly stood up after hearing the sound, but he didn't expect that it was the emperor who came, and he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, and stretched out his hand to rub his eyes, as if he was dreaming.
"Let's be flat." Chu Yuan asked, "Is there a room?" ”
"Go back, go back to the emperor." Xiao Er stammered, "There is no room here, all, all the same." After speaking, he hurriedly said, "The shopkeeper has gone home, and the villain will go and call him here." ”
"Find a room with the best view." Chu Yuan said, "I just want to find a quiet place to listen to the sound of wind and rain, I don't want to disturb others, your shopkeeper is asleep, so don't disturb." ”
"Yes, yes, yes." Xiao Er nodded again and again, he had only watched from afar on the day the emperor entered the city, so he didn't recognize Duan Baiyue, thinking that he was a guard or a big official. So he hurriedly cleaned up the two adjoining rooms, and bent down and retreated downstairs.
After entering the house, Chu Yuan looked around, it was indeed a little old, but it was indeed clean.
Duan Baiyue took off his cloak and asked, "Is it still cold?" ”
"It's not cold." Chu Yuan pushed open the window, and a gust of wind came in, mixed with a light rain. Looking down at a small street, three or two hurried passers-by were rushing home, the sound of stabbing the oil pot came, following the sound, there was a sugar cake shop not far away with the door still open, and the red lantern shone a halo in the silent night, which was extremely warm.
"Want to eat?" Duan Baiyue asked.
Chu Yuan nodded: "Hmm." ”
"Wait for me." Duan Baiyue patted him, turned around and went down the stairs.
Chu Yuan leaned against the window, watched him run out of the inn door, stepped on the small puddle on the ground to the eaves of the sugar cake shop, and said something to the boss. After a while, he ran back with a paper bag in his arms, one hand in front of his forehead to cover the rain, slightly wolf.
So he laughed out loud for no reason.
"Here, eat while it's hot." Duan Baiyue pushed the door in, put the paper bag on the table, and patted the rain on his body, "Just out of the pot, the boss said to eat it while it was hot, and added red beans to it......"
Chu Yuan dropped a kiss on his lips, the time was very short, but it was also soft and warm.
Duan Baiyue was a little surprised: "What's wrong?" ”
"Not really." Chu Yuan wrapped his arms around his waist, "I just think it's good." ”
The surroundings were quiet, no one disturbed, the people I loved the most were around, sleepy
"Little fool." Duan Baiyue reacted, stretched out her hand to hug him tightly, even the tip of her heart hurt, she just wanted to hold the person in the palm of her hand, and just take it all the way back to the southwest, hide it in the quilt, and don't show it to others.
Chu Yuan wrapped his arms around his neck and kissed him with his eyes closed again.
Duan Baiyue waved her hand and swept the window, pressing the person against the wall, her lips as if they were about to stick together, and she didn't separate for a moment.
In the palace, Shen Qianfan was holding a portrait, his brows furrowed slightly.
Ye Jin knocked on the door: "Is it convenient to come in?" ”
"Nature." Shen Qianfan just stepped forward to open the door, "It's still raining outside, why is my sister-in-law here?" ”
"Ahem." Ye Jinyan coughed.
Shen Qianfan corrected in time: "Brother Ye." ”
"I stewed soup for Qianfeng, and I brought you a bowl by the way." Ye Jin put the food box on the table, swept the portrait with his eyes, and wondered, "Are you painting...... Emperor? ”
"Sister-in-law also thinks this looks like the emperor?" Shen Qianfan asked.
So Ye Gu Lord coughed again, don't scream, who is my sister-in-law, I am not particularly familiar with your eldest brother.
However, Shen Qianfan did not react in time this time, but continued: "This portrait was depicted by the painter in the city according to Li Que's oral description, according to what she said, she can have an eight-point portrait of the people of the day. ”
"Li Que, so this is Duan Baiyue?" Ye Jin was suspicious, picked up the portrait and looked at it again. Although he is not ten percent similar to Chu Yuan, he insists that this person is Duan Baiyue - unless it is an eyesight.
"It's really like the emperor, but it can also be another person." Shen Qianfan said, "King Gao Chuxiang." ”
"I haven't seen him." Ye Jin put down the portrait and frowned, "So according to what you mean, it was Chu Xiang who once pretended to be Duan Baiyue in Dali City?" ”
Shen Qianfan nodded.
"Why?" Ye Jin continued to ask. He had only heard Shen Qianfeng say a few words about Li Que before, and he didn't know what was going on, so he was confused.
Shen Qianfan said: "I don't know. ”
"Why is it related to Duan Baiyue?" Ye Jin shook his head, turned around and walked out, "I'll go find the emperor." ”
Shen Qianfan reminded: "The emperor is not here. ”
"Absent?" Ye Jin brushed and twisted his head, "Where did you go?" ”
Shen Qianfan said: "Listening to Sixi, it should be to the beach." ”
"This stormy one, go to the seashore and do something." Ye Jin's eyes widened, the wind and cold were just right, how could he not be conscious, what if the condition was serious again. After thinking about it, he continued to interrogate: "Who are you going with?" ”
Shen Qianfan reacted quickly this time: "I didn't talk to anyone, alone, and brought the shadow guard." ”
A talent to blame. Ye Jin's chest tightened and his fists clenched, why didn't he just stare at him for a moment, and then sneaked away with the bald man again.
Can you still be a good emperor?
