229. Chapter 228
Ji Xuanyuan heard the choking in his tone, he had never been so sad as he is now, the woman in front of him is his, and it can only be his. But he can't be like all husbands in the world, and take it for granted that the woman in front of him is the wife he thinks will be his wife for life.
An Sui felt his hesitation.
"Actually, no one will ask me to ...... at all"
"Nonsense!" Ji Xuanyuan shouted in a low voice, "You still have me." No matter what you are, I will want you. Isn't it possible that you still want anyone? ”
Does he want her?
But he still has three palaces and six courts.
He still has so many women.
He had so many people with him, every night, that it might not be clear how long it had been since he had seen her in private.
But she had always calculated very well that she and he had not seen each other in private for three months and twenty-six days.
She's different, she's only one person. Sometimes when she feels that the night is long, she curls up in the quilt and holds herself with both hands, but she still feels that the piece of her heart is always empty.
Sometimes she still thinks that this is better than the days at the border!
"Really?"
Ji Xuanyuan heard her slightly cold and disappointed voice, he felt that something was wrong, and turned An Sui's body, "What do you mean by this?" ”
"I was just thinking, when we were at the border at that time, we were far away, and we never thought about these problems, at that time, I just thought about surviving the three years in front of us, and then returning to the capital to see you. However, I suddenly felt that I was wrong to come back. ”
"Wrong?" Ji Xuanyuan's brows furrowed deeply, "Ah Sui, are you suspicious of me for the sake of another man?" ”
"You could think I'm greedy, I want more than that."
The carriage stopped, and Ji Xuanyuan said softly, "It's time to get home!" ”
An Sui nodded, got up and was about to walk down, Ji Xuanyuan said coldly, "Ah Sui, if you want it, I can't give it to you, can you say it is over so cruelly?" It was you who wanted to enter my life at the beginning, and now you are the one who is leaving, I know to sue you, I don't agree! ”
An Sui didn't look back at him, and got out of the carriage directly, and the carriage was so far away, and Xiuyan came out of the mansion, "Girl, what's wrong with you, why are you crying?" ”
An Sui held the hand of the embroidered inkstone and shook his head, "I'm fine, let's go in!" ”
The affairs of the household department soon occupied all of An Sui's mind, so that she didn't even have time to be sad, and the affairs of the household department were not over, and June had not yet arrived, and the Honglu Temple was going to be busy for the matter of the Wuqi envoy entering Beijing to meet in June. An Sui was so busy with things at both ends that her feet didn't touch the ground, and it was probably at this time that Concubine Li spread the news that she was pregnant. At this juncture, it's a good thing.
When An Sui inadvertently returned to the house, he heard a few people in the house say, An Sui stopped, and the people also saw An Sui, so they immediately silenced and dispersed. Xiuyan saw that An Sui's face was not very good, and she was very worried, "Girl...... Actually......"
An Sui just said lightly, "You accompany me to the bamboo forest for a walk!" ”
The summer night was a little stuffy, but An Sui's mansion was originally selected as the warmest place in the capital in winter and coolest in summer, and there was also a large bamboo forest behind the mansion. On summer nights, it's still a little cool.
Since returning to Beijing, once she encounters troublesome things, she will always take advantage of the good night to walk in the bamboo forest, and she is accompanied by embroidered inkstones every time.
Recently, there have been more things going on in Tobe and Honglu Temple, and she needs to be quiet even more, and she has more time to walk in the bamboo forest.
Xiuyan knew that An Sui was not in a good mood, so he didn't say much, carried a lantern to light the road, and followed closely behind An Sui.
An Sui wore a lilac robe, which blended in with the night in the night.
"Girl, beware of someone!"
An Sui was startled, and then came back to his senses, there was indeed a figure in the dark, faintly by the moonlight, but he couldn't really see it, "Who?" ”
The figure walked out of the shadows, "It's only been a few days, why doesn't Miss An remember it?" ”
An Sui saw the appearance of the person who came clearly, "Young Master Liu." ”
Xiuyan was a little angry, "Okay, is it scary to hide there at night?" Not even a sound! ”
Liu Ming didn't laugh angrily, "It's strange, I've been there all along, obviously Miss An came over here, how can I say that I'm hiding here?" ”
"But......" An Sui stretched out his hand to stop the embroidered inkstone.
"I'm sorry, Young Master Liu, Fang is our rudeness, please don't be surprised."
An Sui apologized and was about to leave, but Liu Ming called out to her, "Miss An, I've been around here these days, and I've always seen girls walking here, but I'm always frowning." Zai Xia and Meng Gongzi are also in the thatched hut in the bamboo forest, I don't know if the girl can enjoy her face and get together with us. ”
"I came here on a whim, and I returned with a good time, and Childe's invitation was not in my interest. Childe just entertains himself! I won't bother! ”
"Miss Ann! I also want to apologize to the girl today, and when I heard the girl's identity that day, I was indeed a little surprised, but there was no malice in the bottom, and there was no contempt for the girl......"
"No matter what Liu Gongzi said, I didn't take it to heart, so Gongzi has nothing to apologize for."
When it came to this, Liu Ming was no longer reluctant, "Since that's the case, it's not too early, girl, hurry back home!" The thatched hut under is also located in the depths of this bamboo forest, if you are lucky, can you receive a girl in the next? ”
"Childe is polite."
An walked away, and Meng Hui walked out of the woods and gently patted Liu Mingye on the shoulder, "Brother! You can't look down on so many girls in the capital, this girl is not very glorious, not to mention her current attitude, you can also see it. ”
"When it comes to fame, how noble and clean are you and me. Everyone said that she was charming and bewitching, and confused the Holy Lord, but I always felt that this was not the case, she was different from the rumored An Sui. Liu Ming remembered the scene of her leaning on the water on that day, holding a peach blossom in her hand, and looked at the direction An Sui left a little stupidly.
Meng Hui nodded first, "I agree with your first half of the sentence, but in my opinion, you and her have only met once, so you can hook you like this, isn't it still a foxy and confused person?" What's different about that? ”
"It's different." Liu Ming shook his head, but he couldn't tell what was different.
Meng Hui patted him on the back, "Okay, let's go!" ”
An thought that after that night, she would not meet Liu Mingshi, after all, she was so busy that she didn't even have time to set foot in the bamboo forest. In the middle of June, the envoys of Wuqi also came to Beijing, and everyone in Honglu Temple was eager to live directly in Honglu Temple.
An Sui is also busy and lacks skills.
In addition to consolidating border relations with Dachu, the most important purpose of the Wuqi envoys coming to Dachu was to hope to have commercial and trade contacts with Dachu. In the past two years, the commercial port of Jindi has gradually begun to have a little scale, and Ji Xuanyuan was transferred to the former Taishou Luomen Jing of Jindi to supervise the business port.
After the establishment of the commercial port, the annual livelihood tax of Guizi has also increased a lot, and now it is just the beginning, it has such good results, after the war of Wuqi for many years, it is also a time to recuperate, and naturally hope to establish friendly business and trade exchanges with Dachu.
Ji Xuanyuan naturally couldn't ask for it, and there were still a lot of people in the household department who were watching the business port, but he didn't want Ji Xuanyuan to suddenly order the household department to formulate a suitable business port management mechanism within half a year, and try to establish a commercial port with Wuqi, and everyone was in danger for a while, but fortunately, Yin Qingcheng proposed a management model that began to take shape earlier, which was considered to be a solution to the urgent need.
The envoy of Wuqi stayed in Dachu for about two months and then set off to return to Wuqi, leaving three noble children to stay in Dachu voluntarily, and Ji Xuanyuan also gave them their official positions and temporarily stayed in Honglu Temple.
Qianzheng Palace.
Ji Xuanyuan didn't know how many nights it was until late at night. Xu Mingchang and Gongsun Luo accompanied each other, but no one dared to persuade them. Even Gongsun Luo's strong temper didn't dare to persuade him.
Xu Mingchang couldn't help but feel sleepy, under the pretext of changing tea for Ji Xuanyuan, he walked out and took a few deep breaths, since the last time Ji Xuanyuan went out of the palace to see An Sui, it has become like this. Every day, I either criticized the chapter or read official documents, and I didn't even go to the harem a few times. Concubine Li was pregnant, and Ji Xuanyuan didn't go to see her a few times, and the only few times she was thinking about the envoy of Wuqi in Beijing.
Xinzhi trotted in, "Master, it's not good!" Something is wrong! ”
Xu Mingchang first knocked on his head and glanced inside the Qinzheng Palace, but fortunately, Ji Xuanyuan didn't react inside. Xu Mingchang pulled Xinzhi and walked a few steps away before he dared to lower his voice and said, "What is such a panic, if it makes the emperor unhappy, be careful of your head, do you want it!" ”
In the past few months, Ji Xuanyuan has been in a bad mood, exuding low pressure all over his body, and the Qianzheng Palace has been trembling all day long, as if he is facing a great enemy. Ji Xuanyuan coughed lightly, and the people in the Qianzheng Palace were tense and drenched in cold sweat.
Xinzhi said anxiously, "No! If you sue the emperor later, I'm afraid that the slave is really the sin that will lose his head! ”
Xu Mingchang understood after thinking about it, "Is it Lord An's business?" ”
This voice was a little high, and Ji Xuanyuan's voice immediately came in from inside, "Xinzhi!" ”
Xinzhi was shocked, "Master, the slave is in!" ”
Ji Xuanyuan only faintly heard the words "Lord An", so he stopped his pen and called Xinzhi in, "What did you say about Ah Sui?" ”
"Lord Ann is sick!" Xinzhi glanced up at Ji Xuanyuan, "The imperial doctor has already gone to see it, and it is said that it is the result of overwork and depression." ”
