Chapter 163: Good or Bad
Shui Yue lowered her eyes slightly, and did not look at Meng Ziyi and Luoyang, who were sitting opposite, with an indifferent face.
"The emperor should have gone down to the early court at this time, and he was out of company."
After saying that, Shui Yue turned around and walked out of the pavilion, stepped down the steps, and walked to the door of the "Imperial Garden". Meng Ziyi looked at Shui Yue, who was slowly walking out of sight, and then stood up, but she didn't know what to say.
Shi An, who was standing behind Meng Ziyi, saw the embarrassment and disappointment that flashed on Meng Ziyi's face, but he unexpectedly said that he was safe.
"Her personality has always been like this, the girl in purple doesn't have to think about it."
Meng Ziyi turned her head to look at Shi An behind her, and the slight grievances in her eyes made Shi An slightly stunned. Meng Ziyi nodded lightly, and Shi An lowered his head. The woman in front of her is really too similar to the dream purple clothes five years ago.
When Shui Yue returned to the "Imperial Study", Ye Xuanchen was already standing in front of the table, looking down at the Lianli tree on the table.
"Huh? Coming back? Where did it go again? ”
"Imperial Garden."
Shui Yue replied softly, and after Meng Ziyi's question just now, the chaotic mood rekindled at the moment when she saw Ye Xuanchen. Shui Yue lowered her eyes with a complicated expression and walked in the direction of Ye Xuanchen.
Shui Yue walked behind Ye Xuanchen, and her heart was slightly complicated. Ye Xuanchen then sat on the chair, picked up a book of folds, and looked at the folds in his hand carefully, but did not notice Shui Yue's thoughts.
"The Mid-Autumn Festival is just a few days away, and I'm worried about what to do with this year's Mid-Autumn Festival."
Ye Xuanchen's faint voice pulled Shui Yue's distraction back, and Shui Yue looked at Ye Xuanchen's brows. Slightly puzzled.
"Aren't these things all the ministers of the court come up with ideas, why is the emperor still so troubled."
"Well, it was true in previous years, but after the Mid-Autumn Festival is the queen mother's birthday, so I am worried that these two banquets are too close to each other, so I don't want to be too similar. However, the banquets held in the palace every year are very time-consuming and laborious, and they also consume the financial resources of the national treasury. That's why I'm a little irritable at this time. ”
Shui Yue nodded, so that's it. Her mind flickered, and then a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"It's not very difficult. It is better to hold the birthday of the Empress Dowager on the same day as the banquet on August 15. ”
Ye Xuanchen was slightly stunned. Turning his head to look at Shui Yue, his eyes were full of questions.
"Do it together?"
"Yes, it's a little more special and grand. The meaning of the Mid-Autumn Festival is to celebrate the reunion of a family. At that time, the emperor invited the princes of the fiefdoms to come back to celebrate. By the way, I also paid homage to the Queen Mother. That is, the meaning of the Mid-Autumn Festival has been achieved. The queen mother's birthday banquet was also solved. When the time comes, wouldn't it save time, effort and money? What do you get more than one stone? ”
After Shui Yue finished speaking, Ye Xuanchen's eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth were full of smiles. Got up from his chair.
"Great idea! Suiyue, you're so smart! ”
As he spoke, Ye Xuanchen reached out and gently patted Shui Yue's forehead. Shui Yuedang was stunned in place. It seemed as if a strange warm current flowed from his palm into his forehead, straight into his heart, and all over his body. When Shui Yue came back to his senses, Ye Xuanchen had already sat back in the chair and wrote down the decision on the fold.
Shui Yue looked at Ye Xuanchen who was sitting in front of her, recalling the chaotic thoughts she had when she faced him during this time, and suddenly there was a moment of confusion. Is she really only responsible for Ye Xuanchen? Or ...... What else do you have on your mind?
Shui Yue, who was in a messy mood, thought about it for a few days, but still couldn't get any results, so she took advantage of Ye Xuanchen and the important ministers of the court to discuss the banquet and walked out of the "imperial study". Walking on the bluestone road in the palace, Shui Yue was a little absent-minded. She had lived in Heaven for tens of thousands of years, but she had never felt like this, never experienced such a taste.
Shui Yue felt that since she came to Ye Xuanchen's side, the ups and downs of the world seemed to have been tasted by her in just one year. Although she had never deliberately thought about what had happened in the past year, she still remembered it vividly when she thought about it now.
Shui Yue stopped and looked at the sky, really not knowing whether it was good or bad for her to come to this mortal world.
"Yes...... Sister Suizuki?! Sister Suizuki! ”
An immature child's voice came from behind Shui Yue, who pulled back her mind and looked behind her, and saw a small white meat ball rushing in her direction. Before Shui Yue had time to react, he saw that the white little ball had already rushed to the front, and jumped towards Shui Yue's body with a slight jump.
Shui Yue was stunned and hurriedly planned to reach out to pick it up. found that the body of the little meat ball stopped in mid-air, and then a good-sounding boy came from behind the little meat ball.
"You'er! You are so heavy, how can Miss Water Moon catch you? ”
Shui Yue raised her head in slight surprise, and saw that behind the little meat dumpling stood the Nine Princes in a purple brocade robe. He nodded politely to the Nine Princes as a salute.
"The Ninth Prince."
The Nine Princes nodded in return, and the little meat dumpling pursed his meaty mouth, looking unhappy.
"Brother Jiu! You're carrying me like this again! It's hard to feel good! ”
Then he put his hands in his chest and stuck them in front of his chest. The ninth prince smiled on his face, and put the small meat ball he was carrying on the ground. Unexpectedly, as soon as the little meat dumpling was freed, it was immediately hung on Shui Yue's waist again.
"Sister Shuiyue, I miss you so much! Where have you been? Why hasn't You'er seen Sister Shuiyue for so many days? ”
Shui Yue gently rubbed the top of the little meat ball's head, and her eyes were full of smiles.
"I didn't go anywhere, I was in the palace."
"Oh~ Sister Shuiyue, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival in a few days, and the palace will be very lively at that time! There will be beautiful fireworks at night! ”
"Really?"
Shui Yue reached out and took Xiao Rouzi's little hand and led him forward. The little meat dumpling told Shui Yue with great interest about the scene of the Mid-Autumn Festival every year. The Nine Princes followed behind the two of them, and they were a little puzzled by the fact that the little meat dumpling had been sticking to Shui Yue, but he could only shake his head and sigh behind the two.
Just when the three of them stepped into the "Imperial Garden" and walked towards the small pavilion in the garden, Shui Yue felt the breath of Meng Ziyi, looked up at the pavilion, and sure enough, he saw Meng Ziyi wearing a purple gauze skirt sitting in the pavilion drinking tea.
And Meng Ziyi seemed to have seen Shui Yue, she put down the tea cup in her hand, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Miss Shuiyue, what a coincidence."
The look in Shui Yue's eyes flashed, and then she nodded slightly. The little palace maid behind Meng Ziyi saw the little meat dumplings and the Nine Princes kneeling down and saluting. Meng Ziyi also got up and bowed to the Nine Princes.
"Ziyi has seen the Nine Princes and the Ten Princes."
"The girl in purple doesn't have to be polite."
The Nine Princes nodded slightly in return. Meng Ziyi got up and smiled lightly at the Nine Princes, and a trace of surprise flashed in the bottom of the Nine Princes' hearts again, surprised by her resemblance to the woman five years ago.
"Miss Shuiyue, since you are also here to enjoy the flowers, why don't you sit down and drink tea with Ziyi?"
Meng Ziyi invited Shui Yue with a smile, and before Shui Yue could speak, Xiao Rou Tuzi had already pulled Shui Yue towards the table in the pavilion, facing the stacks of delicate snacks on the table.
"Wow...... So much to eat! Sister Suizuki, I'm hungry! ”
The little meat dumpling raised his head and looked at Shui Yue with a "sad" face, Shui Yue sighed softly helplessly, and then nodded. The little meat ball had already been allowed, so he let go of Shui Yue's hand and threw himself towards the table.
"Nine Princes, Miss Shuiyue, please take a seat. These are all small snacks made by Ziyi herself, I don't know if they fit the appetite of the two, if you don't dislike it, please taste it. ”
The Ninth Prince sat down next to the small meat dumplings, looked at the stacks of delicate snacks on the table, and watched the little meat dumplings eat so happily and satisfied, and smiled at Meng Ziyi.
"Seeing You'er's happy and satisfied face eating, thinking about the cooking skills of the girl in purple should be quite good."
Meng Ziyi smiled shyly after hearing this, and when she lowered her head slightly, a touch of blush appeared on her face.
"Originally...... It's because Ziyi doesn't know what kind of flavor the emperor likes, so he tries to make a little bit of everything, and he doesn't know which one is more pleasing to the emperor. It just so happens that you guys are coming, so you might as well give Ziyi some advice. ”
"Original...... The girl in purple was made for the royal brother. ”
The Nine Princes suddenly looked at the stacks of delicate dim sum in front of him, and the little meat dumpling finally raised his head from the crowd of dim sum.
"Sister Ziyi, did you do it for the imperial brother? But the royal brother doesn't like sweets very much? ”
Shui Yue, who was standing behind the little meat dumpling, slightly covered her eyelids, and her heart seemed to be stirred up by a stone. It turns out that Ye Xuanchen really doesn't like sweets, but every time after a meal, he will order someone to prepare a lot of snacks, and every time he will symbolically eat a few bites, what is it for? For her?
A look of surprise flashed on Meng Ziyi's face, followed by embarrassment.
"Original...... Doesn't the emperor like sweets? But I asked the father-in-law in the imperial dining room, and the father-in-law in the imperial dining room said that every time the emperor had a meal, he would order the imperial dining room to make some desserts after the meal......"
"Huh? Could it be that the taste of the royal brother has changed? ”
The little meat dumpling was stuffing dessert into his mouth while muttering. Shui Yue looked at the mouth full of snacks that could barely be pounded in the mouth of the little meat dumpling, a touch of helplessness flashed in her eyes, she poured a cup of tea from the table and handed it to the front of the little meat dumpling, and couldn't help but remind.
"Lord Shi, it's better for you to eat less desserts."
"Why, Sister Suiyue! I just love to eat! (To be continued......)
