Chapter 101: Liu Yu's Former Residence

Yizhen led Qiyun and Yinxue to the Taiwei Mansion by the Qinhuai River. The guards in front of the palace saw that it was the king of Luling who led the people to come, and they were busy giving salutes and letting them in. It turned out that Liu Yu gave the former residence of Taiweifu to Yizhen. It's just that Yizhen feels too lonely and lonely, and he hasn't lived here.

Bypassed the photo wall, passed through the flower hall, and entered the main hall of the Taiwei Mansion. Seeing that the original lively Taiwei Mansion has been used as the former residence of Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty, it is silent and unpopular. At this time, Qiyun saw it, and sighed a little about the passage of time. Out of the main hall, through the weeping flower door, into a courtyard, although there are no people, but also clean and tidy, as if someone often cleans. The courtyard is full of green trees, the pool is clear, and the clouds seem to return to the days when I was a child in the courtyard to enjoy flowers and fish, and play with the Liu brothers.

Yin Xue looked around and saw that the former residence of an emperor had no gold and jade decorations, and was as simple as an ordinary people's home, and she couldn't help but be very surprised. She saw the rake displayed under the courtyard wall, her eyes widened, and she asked in surprise, "King Luling, what is this?" What is it used for? ”

Yizhen took the rake in his hand, stroked it gently, and said to her gently: "This is a farming tool used for plowing the fields, which was used by my father when he was alive. ”

Yin Xue saw the spinning wheel and loom displayed under the corridor again, stepped forward to touch it curiously, and asked, "What does this do?" Yoshizhen replied with a smile: "It is a tool for spinning and weaving, and silk and linen can only have the clothes you wear after spinning and weaving." Yin Xue seemed to understand a little, and when she looked up, she suddenly saw Yizhen's handsome face approaching, and she couldn't help but blush, and her heart was a little panicked, so she hurriedly lowered her head.

Qiyun saw the spinning wheel and loom under the corridor, and looked at it in a daze, and his heart was sour. The wish of the huntress and weaver made in the bamboo house of Baiyun Mountain that day finally turned into clouds and smoke, buried in the depths of my heart, and became an unattainable dream.

Yin Xue looked around at the lanterns made of cloth hanging on the walls, and the dust-whisking broom made of hemp rope in the corner, and couldn't help but say, "This really doesn't look like an emperor's old residence, but like a farmer's home." ”

Qiyun suppressed the thoughts in his heart and smiled: "His father, Emperor Wu of Song, has an open-minded and generous personality, lives an extremely simple life, and is a rare Ming monarch in ancient and modern times. He put these used farm tools and spinning wheels on display in his old residence, mostly to let future generations know the difficulties of weaving. In order to warn future generations, do not forget the foundation of life. ”

Yoshizhen sighed and said, "Father Emperor is indeed this intention. It's a pity that the legacy of my father doesn't know how long the road can last. Nowadays, the emperor and those scholars around him are messing around all day long, playing music or practicing martial arts all day long, gongs and drums are noisy, noisy and screaming, which can be heard outside the palace walls, making people uneasy, and the people are talking about it. What's even more ridiculous is that he ordered people to open a row of shops in the palace, and as the emperor, he personally bought and sold, bargained, and had fun with it. ”

Qiyun could hear that the two brothers were full of contradictions, and they seemed to be on the same page, looked up at Yizhen, and persuaded Yan Heyan: "Brother Yizhen, no matter what, he is the Son of Heaven, and the imperial power is supreme, so give him some face." If you don't give in, I'm afraid you'll ...... in the future," she wanted to speak.

Yizhen looked a little disdainful and said, "If he were a Ming King, I would also be a virtuous king." It's a pity ......"

"Brother Yizhen," Qiyun hurriedly interrupted him, "let's not talk about this, let's talk about something else." ”

Yizhen nodded and smiled, "Okay, say something else." What are your plans when you arrive in Jiankang, especially where do you plan to stay? Live in my Luling Palace, okay? ”

Qiyun thought for a while, and thanked: "Xie Lu Xie Yizhen's kindness, I think this place is quiet and elegant, and this place is very good, I want to bring Xue'er to live here." I still want to live in the original room of the Splendid Pavilion, I don't know if it's okay? ”

Yizhen pondered for a moment and asked, "It's so empty here, aren't you two girls too lonely here?" ”

Qiyun sighed lightly, her expression was a little ethereal, "Yizhen, maybe it's because I've grown up, and now, I prefer to be quiet." Also, there are a lot of memories from our childhood, which I love very much, and I think Cher will like it too," he asked Yin Xue Dao, "Cher, how about we live here?" Yin Xue remembered what Qiyun had said and nodded yes.

Qiyun smiled softly on her face, and her sincerity softened. Yizhen didn't stop it, so he had to agree: "Okay, fortunately, my house is nearby, and it is extremely convenient to come over." Yun'er and Miss Yinxue live here, and I'll come to see you often. On the emperor's side, you don't have to worry, this mansion was originally given to me by my father. I'll send someone to inform him of him. Wait a minute, I'll send someone here to clean up, and I'll take care of it today. ”

Qiyun and Yinxue sent Yoshijin away, took a free time, and cleaned up the room by themselves. The two of them were talking and laughing, sweating and working, and suddenly saw that the guards at the gate of the mansion brought a few maids to come, which turned out to be the four maids of the Yidu Palace, Chunzhu, Qinghe, Aoju and Ximei.

Chunzhu led everyone and saluted the two, "The prince knows that the county lord lives here, and specially ordered the slaves and maids to come and serve the two young ladies. ”

"Your prince is too polite, and there were originally some servants in this prince's mansion. Come here again, we don't need these people. If you come, will not your palace be short of men? You better go back to the Yidu Palace. Qiyun persuaded.

When the four maids heard this, they knelt at Qiyun's feet in unison and begged: "The county lord must not drive a few slaves and maids away, the prince said, if the county lord does not call us, the prince tells us that we don't have to go back to the palace." If the county lord doesn't need us, won't we have a place to go? Please fulfill the county lord. After speaking, his eyes were also slightly red.

Qiyun and Yin Xue looked at each other, Yin Xue saw this, and was a little unbearable, "Sister, looking at King Yidu is also a good intention." It's better for my sister to accept them. ”

Qiyun nodded, and said to the four of them with a straight face: "From today on, since you want to stay here, you should know that you will serve me as your master." You should know what to say and what not to say to the palace. You can do good things with others, but you can't say things that sow discord, understand? ”

"Slaves and maidservants understand that we must talk less and do more. From this day forward, we will be the lord's people. The four of them replied in unison.

"Since I came here to stay, I just want to be quiet and worry-free. If anyone disturbs my purity, I will surely send her away, and her life or death has nothing to do with me. Qiyun commanded in a cold voice.

The four of them only spoke in unison, respectfully retreated, and went to do their own things. Yin Xue looked at the door for a while, and saw four maids, cleaning the courtyard, wiping utensils, and working very hard. She turned back to Qiyun and asked, "I see that a few of them are diligent, loyal and honest. My sister is so fierce to them! Why do you warn them of those words? ”

Qiyun smiled slightly and replied: "Where there are people, there will be contradictions. Although they are subordinates, they must also have rules and regulations, otherwise there will be things that deceive the master. What's more, I don't know whether they are the people of King Yidu or Concubine Yuan. ”

Yin Xue asked, "Aren't King Yidu's people the same as Concubine Yuan's?" The two of them are husband and wife, is there any difference here? ”

Qiyun's face was calm, and he said: "It's better to be careful than in your own home." I have known King Yidu since I was a child, and Concubine Yuan and I have no past friendship. After a long time, if there is a villain in the middle, the rare friendship between me and King Yidu will come to naught. Of course, if they treat me sincerely, I will treat them well. ”
