Chapter 10: The Empress
In the early autumn day, as soon as the wind blows in the north, there is a distinct coolness, and in the palace of Wuzhu Kingdom, the trees have undergone slight changes after the autumn wind. Leaves fall in the yard every day, and on the clean floor, those leaves are spread on it, like a beautiful pattern, if the wind urges, it comes alive, so that people feel like fish swimming in the water, fluttering, more and more highlighting the comfort of autumn......
Time is like water, and it is autumn in a blink of an eye, and there are some leaves scattered in the lake of Jingzhenyuan, and some fish use it as food, swimming up and trying to touch it, but in an instant, it suddenly escapes again. "Feng Jian Che" stood at the water's edge, looking at those duckweed and swimming fish, and he didn't even know when Feng Xian was standing beside him.
"The Emperor's ......"
Hearing the sound of the wind strings, "Feng Jian Che" suddenly trembled in his heart, but he still looked safe, casually threw the fish food in his hand, and waited until the fish food in his hand was all spilled, then turned around, raised his hand and knocked on the stone table in the pavilion, told the wind strings to sit down, and turned his back again.
Feng Xian looked at the strange behavior of "Feng Jian Che", and his heart was even more puzzled, however, after all, after he came back, he had been entangled in official business, and he had never had close contact with "Feng Jian Che", and he didn't dare to make a conclusion rashly for a while.
"Your Majesty, the queen lives in the bedroom of Jingzhen Garden, the door does not go out, the second door does not step, after all, it is not a good thing, the minister thinks, the autumn scenery of Yiliang Palace is pleasant, and there are hot springs, if the queen mother is moved to Yiliang Palace to recuperate, in this way, the matter of choosing a concubine can be carried out smoothly, and it will not hurt the heart of the queen mother, and when this thing is done, the queen mother will come back, it is also impossible, and the matter is all like this......"
"Feng Jian Che" turned his back to the wind strings, looked at the pool water leisurely, opened his thin lips slightly, and said softly: "Don't worry about choosing a concubine, others don't know my intentions, don't you know?" The world says that there is a couple in a lifetime, and so is my heart......"
There is a quiet distance in the indifferent voice that is not as clear as Feng Jian Che, however, Feng Xian also feels that this should be Feng Jian Che's sincerity. It turns out that Feng Jian Che's reputation in Wu Zhu Kingdom is well known, and others think that Feng Jian Che is also a gentleman, only the people around him know that Feng Jian Che has always been a lover.
When Feng Xian was thinking about it, Xilin Jinqiu came over from a distance, saw that Feng Xian was also there, and saluted "Feng Jian Che", so he said: "The wind guards haven't seen you for a long time, why are you tired of being with the emperor as soon as you come back, and you don't even show your face, if it weren't for the fact that Jinqiu has something to show to the emperor today, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to see you again when you leave." ”
Xilin Jinqiu greeted the wind strings familiarly, and when the "wind stream was clear", he said: "It's rare for you to see each other, and after a few days, you have to disperse, even so, it's better to have a banquet at night, as for me, I will rest in Jingzhen Garden tonight, Ning'er is not in good health, Fengxian's suggestion is good, if Ning'er is unified, I'm afraid I will also go to Yiliang Palace for a few days, and it is not known." ”
"Thank you, Lord Long." After hearing this, Xilin Jinqiu bowed down and saluted in a wooden manner, and when Feng Xian saw it, he also followed Xie En to salute.
"Feng Jian Che" didn't make a sound, just nodded silently, and went to Jingning's dormitory, leaving the wind strings and Xilin Jinqiu in the courtyard, blowing the autumn breeze coolly.
"Hey!" Feng Xian looked at Xilin Jinqiu with a very calm look, picked up the fish food left by "Feng Jian Che" on the stone table in the pavilion and fed the fish leisurely, endured it several times, but finally couldn't hold back, so he simply opened his mouth and asked Xilin Jinqiu: "Hey, Brother Xilin, don't you think the emperor is weird?" When I came back in the past few days, I always felt that something was wrong when I saw the emperor, but I couldn't tell the truth what was wrong. It's just that a few days ago, the emperor smelled chrysanthemums in the imperial garden and reminded me of one thing, our emperor was allergic to pollen when he was a child, but after that day, the emperor did not feel any discomfort, I am only afraid, is the emperor above the court someone else? ”
Xilin Jinqiu chuckled when he heard this, but he couldn't see any information in that smile, Feng Xian looked at Xilin Jinqiu as if he knew, but he refused to tell the truth, he wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, he was afraid that Xilin Jinqiu would also call the "Feng Jian Che" in front of him to pull him over, if this was the case, he was afraid that his situation was also in the tiger's mouth.
Seeing that the wind strings were silent, Xilin Jinqiu sprinkled a large handful of fish food in his hand, and saw that the fish were competing to devour it, making a lot of noise, and Xilin Jinqiu was also in a good mood. Turning around, Xilin Jinqiu still smiled and said to Feng Xian, "So what? Isn't it? As long as the country can be governed well, the country and the people are safe, whoever is the emperor, I am happy to assist, what do the wind guards think? ”
"You ......" Feng Xian listened to Xilin Jinqiu's words, and suddenly felt that his mouth was blocked, he had never been in the country and the world, it was true that no one cared who was the emperor, only people cared if the emperor was a good emperor who personally checked the hearts of the people, Xilin Jinqiu has always been dissolute, but he is very able to understand the hearts of the people, he said this, it is not strange, but, Feng Xian is different, he played a small follow Feng Jian Che's side, Feng Jian Che's safety is the first, of course, for the throne, he has always understood Feng Jian Che's heart, from the heart, He hopes that his master will be in the limelight.
"The emperor's relationship with you is close, and the relationship with me is also close, but, the family and the country, there is no reason for favoritism, to be honest, the emperor in front of me is better than the previous emperor, and he is better than Feng Yanhao, so as for whether he is Feng Jian Che, I don't really mind in my heart." Xilin Jinqiu saw the displeasure on Feng Xian's face, so he said half explaining and half talking to himself.
Feng Xian couldn't get an answer from Xilin Jinqiu, so he thought about asking Dong Wentao, anyway, this matter was in his heart, if he didn't find out, his heart would always be unstable. So, Feng Xian said to Xilin Jinqiu: "Since this is the case, then please ask Brother Xilin to assist the king, the real family and country in the world, and the faction is prosperous, and Feng Xian will leave." ”
"It's nature." Xilin Jinqiu looked at the somewhat lonely figure of Feng Xian, and said with a smile: "At the banquet in the evening, can the wind guards still come?" ”
Feng Xian stopped, stood there, turned back slightly and said to Xilin Jinqiu: "This is the emperor's order, Feng Xian naturally does not dare to disobey." ”
Xilin Jinqiu nodded clearly, and raised his voice: "This is the best, maybe, the emperor will drink too much, he will be open-mouthed, and spit out the truth after drinking, if you miss it, wouldn't it be a pity?!"
"Thank you Brother Xilin for reminding me, Fengxian is grateful." The wind strings waved their hands far away, and they passed through the fallen leaves blown away by the autumn wind, and disappeared into the cloister.
At the banquet in the evening, only Xilin Jinqiu, Dong Wentao, Feng Xian and a few useful servants were present, and the wine and food on the table were liked by a few people, and the location was set on the stargazing platform, a hundred feet away, but it was a good place to look up to the world.
"Isn't the emperor coming? Didn't Brother Xilin say that the emperor would arrive tonight? Seeing that "Feng Jian Che" was delayed, Feng Xian's heart couldn't help but beat the drum, Xilin Jinqiu's words this afternoon, obviously recognized the unidentified emperor, Dong Wentao's appearance, and it didn't look like there was any dissent, and now on the stargazing platform, there are probably very few people who can really be called reliable.
When Feng Xian thought about it, he immediately felt that he was extremely stupid, and he didn't check it for a while, and put himself in such a dangerous situation, if they joined forces, this stargazing platform would probably be the place where he died.
However, sweating and restless for a long time, when Jing Ning climbed the stargazing platform in plain clothes, he saw Xilin Jinqiu and Dong Wentao...... One by one, they respectfully bowed to the king's etiquette, and suddenly they understood: "It turns out that you have been pretending to be the emperor!" ”
Jing Ning stepped forward, smiled faintly, and said, "Why did the wind guard say that?" The emperor is not here, I just came up on behalf of the emperor to complete this courtesy, where did I come from to pretend not to pretend, the words of the wind guards, I really want to think carefully before talking. ”
Feng Xian heard Jing Ning say this, and all of a sudden, that determined arrogance was extinguished by a basin of cold water: "I ......"
"Huh...... Hehehehe......" Looking at the embarrassed expression on Feng Xian's face, Xilin Jinqiu, Dong Wentao and Jing Ning looked at each other, and they all laughed out loud unconsciously.
Seeing them like this, Feng Xian suddenly realized: "You, you guys are ganged up to deceive me......"
"I didn't lie to you, I just knew that you were close to Feng Jian Che, but I was afraid that you would know the cause and effect of the matter, and you would have to find the person who had moved the evil thoughts to replace Feng Jian Che before, so the ninja didn't tell you." Jing Ning saw the wind strings and said with a smile.
"Then where is the emperor now?" Hearing this, Feng Xian asked anxiously.
Jing Ning listened, looked at Dong Wentao, and said: "According to what you know, tell Feng Xian, this kind of thing, you can't hide it, besides, when we want to save Feng Jian Che, we have to use the forces around Feng Xian, if you keep hanging him like this, it is difficult to guarantee that he will do his best when the time comes." ”
Dong Wentao got Jing Ning's consent, so he said to Feng Xian: "The emperor was thrown in the secret passage, Jing Ning caught the person pretending to be the emperor, so he pretended to be the emperor himself, and Xilin Jinqiu and a few of us designed to eradicate the henchmen who were close to the thief, and then began to track down the whereabouts of the emperor......
"Then where is the emperor now?" When Feng Xian heard this, his heart became more and more anxious.
"That secret way, I have gone down, but, sent someone down to look for it, but did not find any trace of Feng Jian Che, Xilin Jinqiu said, the exit of the back mountain is not far from the Zhuxuan Xiaozhu, I am afraid that Feng Jian Che is there, but, when we rushed, it was too late, Imperial Doctor Zhang said, Feng Jian Che was taken away by Mrs. Honghua...... Jing Ning took over the words, and there was a faint sadness between her words, but Feng Jian Che broke her leg, in order not to worry Feng Xian, she didn't say it.
Seeing Jing Ning's sad expression, Xilin Jinqiu hurriedly diverted her attention: "Mrs. Honghua is Feng Jian Che's mother, even if Feng Jian Che doesn't recognize her, she will not be unfavorable to Feng Jian Che, besides, Mrs. Red Flower wants Feng Jian Che to dominate the world, so Feng Jian Che is safe now, you don't have to worry." ”
When Jing Ning heard this, he nodded, and the tears that came out were wiped away by the silk handkerchief, and when he looked up again, there were tears, but he was smiling.
