Chapter 64: Long-winded
Su Wanyan walked to the door of the courtyard where Duanmu Rui lived again, remembering the words she heard here last time, she was still a little nervous, and took a deep breath before walking in.
She found that there was not even a figure in the courtyard, and after looking around, a young servant suddenly jumped out of nowhere and saluted her, she guessed that the people in Duanmu Rui's courtyard were generally hidden in order not to disturb Duanmu Rui, and they would only appear when they were needed.
At this time, Duanmu Rui had already walked out when he heard the movement, and when he saw that it was Su Wanyan, his face sank, but his eyes flashed with brilliance.
"Lord Wang." Su Wanyan hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
"What are you looking for this king?" Duanmu Rui asked with a cold expression.
"I have something important to tell the prince." Su Wanyan's voice was also cold.
The two entered the house, and there was a wooden platform by the window, and on the platform was a low table, on which they had to take off their shoes before they could go up.
There was incense burning on the edge of the table, and three golden osmanthus flowers were inserted in a small black porcelain vase.
On weekdays, Duanmu Rui should especially like to sit here, or drink tea, or play chess, and read books.
The two sat cross-legged on the futon, Duanmu Rui's face was solemn, showing even more elegant and elegant elegance, I heard people say that men were as handsome as immortals, Su Wanyan felt unbelievable, and felt physically uncomfortable, with goosebumps on her body, but now she believed that there was really such a person, so she couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
Duanmu Rui picked up the teapot and poured it on the teacup in front of Su Wanyan, and then asked, "What is the matter with this king?" ”
Su Wanyan took a sip of tea and moistened her throat before she threatened the emperor and forced her to spy on Duanmu Rui, and reported to the emperor, but she only concealed that the emperor forced her to eat poison.
Originally, she wanted to talk about it, but when the words came to her mouth, she stubbornly only wanted to bear this matter herself, and she was still confident in dealing with these strange poisons.
After Duanmu Rui heard what she said, he looked at her with a cold expression, as if he was blaming, "How long has it been?" ”
"After my father went on the expedition, before the Mid-Autumn Festival, it was quite a long time. But you have to believe me, I didn't tell him half of the king's house, when I have to say something, I will talk about your diet and daily life, in fact, I don't know much about these aspects, anyway, I said something useless. He probably guessed that I was fooling him, and he was very dissatisfied, and I was forced to do nothing, so he said that I didn't know you well enough to find any secrets in you, so he asked me to gain your trust and dig out the secrets from you. ”
As soon as Su Wanyan finished speaking, Duanmu Rui said in a sullen voice: "Why did you only tell me now?" ”
Su Wanyan was a little nervous when he asked, "I, didn't I come to tell you?" I really didn't say anything, you have to believe me. ”
After a while, Duanmu Rui withdrew his gaze from looking at her, and said lightly: "I believe you, I don't mean to blame you, I hope you will tell me as soon as possible if you have this kind of thing in the future, and don't carry it silently alone." ”
Su Wanyan suddenly felt a heat in her chest, lowered her head and said, "Oh, I know." ”
Then the two fell silent again, and Duanmu Rui spoke first, "Do you have anything else?" ”
Why, is this what it means to drive her away?
"You haven't told me how to fix things, how do I go? The next time the emperor asks me again, what do I tell them? Su Wanyan said a little breathlessly.
"I mean, just leave this matter to me, you don't have to worry about it." Duanmu Rui explained with a cold face.
To put it mildly, she was poisoned, what if she couldn't wait for him to solve the problem, and she died of poison first?
Su Wanyan thought for a moment and said, "There must be someone from the emperor in the mansion who is watching over us, no matter what I do." On the surface, we should pretend to be intimate, saying that I am trying to gain your trust, and the next time they ask me, I can increase my credibility even if I say it casually, and it is just time for you to delay this matter, but in private, we still don't interfere with each other, you have your own business to do, and I have my own business to be busy, what do you think? ”
Duanmu Rui still had a straight face, but he nodded, "Yes." ”
He soon began to let his subordinates secretly investigate the subordinates in the palace, secretly sent out those who did not do their work wholeheartedly and made mistakes and suspicious people to find the wrong place, replaced them with newcomers with clean backgrounds, and turned the people who could approach him and were clearly sent by the emperor into his own people by various means of coercion and temptation, and transmitted false news to the emperor.
He was very satisfied with Su Wanyan's idea, since the two of them came back from the palace on the Mid-Autumn Festival, Su Wanyan had been cold to him, he wondered in his heart, but he couldn't let go of his body to ask, and gradually moved away from the place where Su Wanyan lived.
Although the house is clean now, the emperor is not allowed to use other methods to monitor, just in case, he often appears in Su Wanyan's courtyard, the two eat together, and sometimes rest in Su Wanyan's house, but they still don't share the same bed.
Su Wanyan sometimes came back to the courtyard where he lived, and the two drank tea and chatted, and had a meal or something.
Their relationship finally got rid of the previous frozen state, although they still did not interfere with each other, but they finally had something to say together, and the atmosphere became harmonious.
Some good people even found a small notebook to write down, the prince had dinner together at the princess's place one day, and the prince rested at the princess's place at night, and one day the prince came back from outside to buy food and send it to the princess, and one day the princess went to the princess's place to drink tea, and stayed for a long time before coming out......
The relationship between the masters and sons eased, and the mood of these subordinates improved, and the palace finally swept away the previous haze and became a little popular.
Su Wanyan married into the palace, although Su Heming had many subordinates around him, all of whom were hand-selected and trustworthy by Su Wanyan, as well as the master's teachings, Su Wanyan was still not at ease, and went home to see him from time to time.
When she went back that day, Su Heming was losing her temper. Although he has learned a lot of skills, his heart is still a child in his early tens, and because Su Wanyan is not by his side, he often can't control his temperament.
He almost demolished the house, threw everything in the house on the ground, and let him break the flowers and plants in the yard with sticks, and the people were so frightened that they begged him not to make any more trouble.
When Su Wanyan came back, he was continuing, and he was very angry when he saw this, so he stepped forward and grabbed his arm and twisted it behind him.
Su Heming saw that it was her, and his emotions finally stabilized, but his face was full of grievances, and tears rolled down his cheeks.
"See for yourself what you've done, and have the face to cry to me." Su Wanyan pointed to the flowers and trees in the yard that were tossed by him, as well as the slaves who knelt on the ground, and looked in from the door and found that the house was also in chaos.
Su Heming lowered his head and didn't dare to make a sound, Su Wanyan asked his subordinates to get up and ask them what was going on, his personal servant and maid said that he came back from Mr., because he had encountered problems in his studies recently, he accidentally fell while walking and thinking about problems, and then bit his tongue when he returned to his residence to eat, so he felt that everything was not going well, so he lost his temper.
Su Wanyan understood that the main reason was that his studies had reached a bottleneck, and he was anxious, so he was absent-minded in doing things, and these small accidents kept occurring.
Su Heming heard everything the people said, so Su Wanyan asked him, "Are they right?" ”
Su Heming nodded in response.
"So don't you think you're ridiculous now? If you think about what you did, because there were problems in your studies, you wrestled, you bit your tongue, and maybe there were other things that didn't go your way, so it inspired you to be irritable and mess around. What's wrong with them, what's wrong with these flowers and trees, what's wrong with the things in the house that you've thrown on the ground? ”
After Su Wanyan finished speaking, she saw Su Heming bowing her head and not saying a word, and continued: "The problem is all with you, my sister is married, I can't accompany you at home, you are angry, but you have to know that not everyone will always be with you, and you will grow up soon, and you may also leave this family, because everyone will have their own way to go." ”
After Su Wanyan finished speaking, she looked at Su Heming distressedly, reached out to tidy up his clothes, and softened her voice.
"You have to learn to be rational and learn to control your emotions, you are indeed quite unlucky today, but why can't you laugh, laugh at yourself, and spend it with this good attitude, you have to get out of control into this situation. There are also academic difficulties, although this is a big deal, but you have to know what it is, when you grow up, there are more difficult things than this, can you vent the problem will be solved? When you encounter a problem, you have to think about how to solve it, instead of losing your temper first, and then wait for the gas to go well or solve it, why bother? ”
Su Wanyan felt that the more she talked, she looked like a verbose old master, so she quickly shut up.
"Okay, my sister said too much, let's go, go in and have a look, and tidy up your things."
She held Su Heming's shoulder and was about to walk into the house, when she heard Su Yuxian's voice at the gate of the courtyard, so she asked the maid to accompany Su Heming into the house.
"I heard that you are also back home today, so I wanted to come and see you, our sisters haven't talked together for a long time." Su Yuxian held her stomach in one hand, deliberately standing tall, and her face turned into a flower.
"Yes, I don't have a chance to congratulate my sister, my belly is so big, it's not far from birth, right?" Su Wanyan knew that she wanted to make her jealous of her again, so she followed her words as if chatting as usual.
"It's still a few months." Su Yuxian covered her mouth and smiled, and gestured, "Sister doesn't know, my belly will grow so big in the future." ”
"Oh my God, really? It's scary. Su Wanyan's eyes widened as she pretended to be shocked.
Su Yuxian smiled, her eyes swept around her, "Isn't my sister moving now?" The prince is not in a hurry? ”
Su Wanyan knew that she was going to start this, and she was bored for a while, and thought sarcastically, obviously the child was conceived with adultery, what do you think, one day the prince will know, and it will be up to you to do it at that time.
She thought so in her heart, but a shy smile appeared on her face, "It's only been how long we have been married, and the prince and I are not in a hurry." ”
"It's better to get pregnant early, maybe you will carry a few more in later, you are in a stable position now, and you don't have to bother fighting with those warblers and Yanyan when the time comes."
Su Wanyan wanted to laugh when she saw Su Yuxian looking like a person who had come over, but she couldn't help it, as if what Su Yuxian said was very reasonable, and nodded.
"If you have a body, don't stand outside, hurry up and sit in the house for a while." Su Wanyan said in her mouth, but she didn't move under her feet.
Su Yuxian was indeed a little tired, and seeing that Su Wanyan didn't move, she was embarrassed to walk into the house by herself, so she pretended to say: "I'm not tired, I'm going to see my mother if I say a few words to you." ”
I wanted to go, but I couldn't help showing off, so I stopped and said, "How does the prince treat my sister?" Do you have a good relationship? ”
In the past, Su Wanyan had not been married, and it was not good to say these things in front of her, but she felt that now that Su Wanyan was married and understood everything, she could talk about it.
