21. Hop wine

In the middle of the night, most of the women in the officials were cowardly and cold, the fireworks dispersed, many people asked to resign and go home, Xu Yunhua sent Jiuniang away, and came back to serve Zhu Di, but Zhu Di said, "It's not early, those women and official wives are still the queen to send off, and besides, the queen has been unwell since she entered Beijing, so go back and rest early." ”

Xu Yunhua listened to Zhu Di's words, his face was slightly displeased, he didn't dare to show it after all, nodded and smiled, "The emperor should also be careful of his body, accompanied by powerful concubines, and concubines should be relieved." Today is not only a festival, but also a great joy for the powerful concubines, and I still haven't congratulated the powerful concubines. ”

I hurriedly walked in front of Xu Yunhua and blessed my body, "Thank you for the queen's love." ”

Xu Yunhua looked around us and left with the maids. Zhu Di looked at everyone's backs and smiled, "It's a pity that I'm a rough person and don't know how to be vassal. ”

"It's not good, although the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty is talented, after all, he is just an idle talent, mixed in the women's team all day long, and finally ends up with a broken family, confined in the high pavilion, those who drank poetry in the past are like flowers and beautiful relatives wandering around, the dead are dead, the dead are dead, and none of them are anymore, so what's the good? is still like you, a little clumsy in poetry and songs, drinking and pleasure, but there is great talent, protecting the family and defending the country, and passing it on for generations is the right way in the world. I grabbed Zhu Di's hand, leaned my head on his shoulder and smiled.

Zhu Di clenched his fists, hooked his thumb and index finger into a circle, flicked it lightly on my forehead, and pretended to be angry, "I finally said what was in my heart, I always thought I didn't understand poetry and songs, right?" ”

I stuck out my tongue, "Didn't I boast about your side again?" ”

Zhu Di stretched out his arm and asked me to hook it into his arm, "Although the moonlight is charming, don't be too greedy after all, it's every year, not tonight." Let's go back and rest. ”

I blushed and looked around before whispering, "You're ...... tonight Are you going to go to me? ”

Zhu Di smiled, "It's strange, today is the day of your canonization, I should go to you when I'm serious, are you embarrassed?" ”

I twisted it twice, "Of course I also want my husband to accompany the couch on the wedding day, but at this time, I suddenly felt that this auspicious day was not good." ”

"Why?" Zhu Di asked.

"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the festival of reunion, no matter how much you love me, I am just a concubine, your wife is the queen's mother, if you don't go to her tonight, it is really unreasonable. I thought about it again and again, I still can't bear the pain and cut my love, and persuade you to go to the queen's bedroom. ”

Zhu Di breathed a long sigh of relief, frowned slightly, and said, "When Yunhua first entered the palace, he was very generous and generous, in the past few years, for some reason, he gradually learned a little bit of childishness, and he has been working hard with me for Xu Huizu's affairs, I have told her many times, she has followed me for so many years, born and died, in charge of affairs, I have all the feelings in my heart, and I will never treat her badly, and I don't have to affect the relationship between me and her for many years for the sake of her mother's family, but she always doesn't listen, and there is a tendency to persuade her more and more, and I have no way to take her." For example, tonight, it's not that I don't want to share my kindness with her, but I'm really afraid that she will cry and threaten her again, so I have to give her Xu family an explanation. ”

I was stunned, I didn't expect Zhu Di to complain like Xu Yunhua in front of me. Everyone thinks that if you are an emperor, you can do whatever you want, and the women around you can also be treated at will, but this is not the case, take the two of them as an example, childhood sweethearts, husband and wife for many years, not only the emperor and queen, husband and wife, but also friends and partners for many years, it is impossible to completely ignore each other's feelings. At this time, Zhu Di saw Xu Yunhua not so much annoyance as fear.

"No matter what, royal etiquette is always about face."

Zhu Di waved his hand, rubbed his temples again, and said helplessly, "Don't say it, don't say it, I'll go to her, I don't want to come to you one day, and I've been listening to the advice to make you another her." ”

I smiled a little sadly, "I'm virtuous, it's not flattering." ”

Zhu Di took me to his side and kissed me lightly on the forehead, "I feel very distressed when you are virtuous, I prefer to see you willful and unreasonable, pestering me to accompany you every day." ”

I nodded on his chest, "This is really a capricious person who hurts, and the sensible has been struck by lightning." ”

Zhu Di laughed, "Little thing, do you have to come up with two novel words every day to tease me?" ”

"I won't tease you, you have to go to court early tomorrow, come back soon."

Zhu Di instructed Li Xing to accompany Bao'er to send me back to Lianyi Palace, and then left first. Then I returned to the Lotus Yi Palace, looked at the red light all over the house, dragged my tired body, and sat on the bed, but I was still hurt by the nuts on the bed, although the silk satin bedding was luxurious, but the tentacles were cold, and there was no warmth at all.

I laughed at myself, I chose that person, after all, in this life, I will never think about the harmony of ordinary couples. Glory and wealth, three thousand favors, but the prosperity in the eyes of others, the cold and cold in the middle of the night, only you know.

"Mother, why are you sitting here alone? Bao'er has prepared hot water, you go to wash, and I have to put away all the peanuts and dates on the bed before you can sleep. Zhu'er said as she carried a pot of hot tea and put it on the bedside table.

I nodded, moved away from the bed, watched her carefully tighten the fruits into a bamboo and rattan basket, and took off the big red futon and shook it, and said, "You can change the futon." Looking at the festive during the day, if you want to watch it every day, you really feel tired from your eyes. ”

Zhu'er said "ah" and said with a smile, "Niangniang, this is not in line with the etiquette system, I have only been paved for a day, and I have not slept before I have slept and replaced it, Emperor Ming'er knows about it, and I want to be angry." ”

"I want you to talk more, the emperor is not such a form-oriented person, it's good when the meaning arrives."

Zhu'er saw that I was determined to change, so I had to start rolling up the brocade on the bed, and as I was rolling, a voice suddenly came from outside the screen, "Who wants to change my happy quilt?" ”

"The emperor is here!" Zhu'er put down the quilt and hurriedly walked over from the bed and knelt down to salute. I was still sitting in front of the dresser, and before I could react, Zhu Di had already walked in, looking at me with a gentle smile.

I stood up, ignoring that Zhu'er was still there, and forgot to salute, "Why are you here?" Didn't you go to the queen's side? ”

Zhu Di glanced at Zhu'er, and Zhu'er walked out with interest, Zhu Di walked to my side, frowned, and said, "What I told you is not bad, as soon as I arrived at Kunning Palace, before I sat down, the queen began to say how much Xu Huizu and his wife regretted it, how they wanted to serve the country, and how they respected Xinjun." What kind of person Xu Huizu is, I know better than her as a sister, she talks nonsense with her eyes open, but I can't follow blindness. I just sat down and came out. ”

I sighed, "The way to get along with husband and wife, it's better to be confused, don't talk about foreign affairs in the boudoir, especially in this emperor's house, the harem must not be mixed with the affairs of the previous dynasty, the queen mother is a sister and brother friendship after all, squinting her eyes and mind." ”

Zhu Di smiled, "You understand very well." ”

"No, if I have parents and siblings, I'm afraid I will be the same as the queen mother." I said lightly.

Zhu Di had to plead for Xu Yunhua, so he changed the topic, "What do you think I brought?" ”

I looked at the table, and I saw that I didn't know when Zhu Di came in two cups, and the two cups were in a peculiar shape. Between the two cups, there is a mighty phoenix, and the phoenix stands on top of the squatting beast. couldn't help but exclaim, "This is the Zhou Dynasty's cup." ”

Zhu Di nodded and said, "This is left by my father, only when the emperor and queen get married, will they take out the candles used by the newlyweds to use the wine before the cave room." ”

As soon as I heard this, I was a little worried, "Drinking together is just a custom, and you want to let husband and wife share weal and sorrow after drinking, you brought such a valuable thing, and don't say whether it is suitable or not, if the queen mother knows, what should you think?" ”

"Ah Yi, you have followed me and suffered so much, no matter how valuable things are, they can't compare to you, you are the most precious. If I can't give you the best now, when will I be able to? I want to collect all the best things in the world and squander them as you please. Zhu Di suddenly became like a child, and said with some stubbornness.

I covered his mouth, "Nonsense, I think the same as you, as long as you're here, nothing is as good as you." ”

"Then why do you have to pretend to be a virtuous concubine and drive me to the queen? As soon as I leave, don't you even dare to face the acacia quilt, and you have to put it away before you stop. ”

When he said something about my heart, my face turned red and I turned around and didn't speak. Zhu Di walked to the side of the bed, spread out the quilt that Zhu'er had folded up again, and then walked back, picked up a pot of wine that had been prepared on the table in the morning, filled the cup of the Fengzun, and said with a smile, "If you want to make you happy and feel the happiness of a small family, how can you miss a glass of wine?" ”

I walked up to him, took the wine glass from his hand, wrapped my arms around him, drank the glass, and after drinking, neither of them put down the wine glass, not even the wine glass, they both looked at each other and laughed stupidly.

Zhu Di put down all the wine glasses in the hands of the two of us with his other hand, pulled me into his arms, and wrapped a finger around one of my long hairs, "It's a pity, we did it in private, and no one can witness it." ”

"Heaven is the proof, the earth is the proof, the first emperor has a spiritual witness in the sky, who else needs to testify?" I hugged his body, feeling his strength, heartbeat, and warmth. <
