Chapter 154: The Gift
In the carriage, Yan Wushuang snuggled in Zhan Ge's arms and looked at Zhan Ge mischievously: "I didn't expect that my prince is still so charming, and he can make so many people care." ”
A shallow kiss fell on the corner of Yan Wushuang's lips, making Zhan Ge's lips stained with a bit of lipstick: "Madame is jealous." ”
"Jealous? Hehe, you think too much, I just feel and honored, that's all. The smile was as warm as the morning sun, so that Zhan Ge couldn't help but tighten the hands on Yan Wu's waist.
When they were about to arrive at the Qianqing Palace, they stopped the carriage, and the two of them led people in, Yan Wushuang's hair bun was not suitable for wearing a hat at the back, and Zhan Ge raised his arms and used a wide cloak to block the wind and snow behind.
"Every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, it seems to snow, and this year is no exception."
Zhan Ge patted the snowflakes on Yan Wushuang's body, so as not to catch a cold on Yan Wushuang: "Dayi seems to have a lot of snow this year, and it is said that Ruixue is a good year, which is a good sign." ”
Walking to the gate of the Qianqing Palace, Wei Gonggong was standing there, seeing the two of them, after hurriedly saluting, he planned to report to His Majesty, between his eyebrows and eyes, he was full of joy.
"Wait, Grandpa Wei, let's just go in by ourselves, is Lin'er inside?" Yan Wushuang hurriedly stopped Gonggong Wei, although he hadn't come to the palace for a long time, he was still very familiar with this place.
Gonggong Wei lowered his voice: "County Lord, Lord, Your Majesty is in the imperial study, and the master is there." ”
"Oh, in this way, you wait here, presumably later, Lord Wei Guogong and His Royal Highness King Sheng will arrive, let's go in first, let them wait for the meeting."
After Yan Wushuang gave the order, He Zhan Ge walked inside, and Gonggong Wei bowed respectfully until the two of them entered.
At the door of the imperial study, Yan Wushuang asked Shuangshuang and Mo Shang to wait here, and quietly said to Zhan Ge: "I'll go in first, and then you come in again and surprise Lin'er, how about it?" ”
Looking at the starlight flashing in Yan Wu's twin eyes, even if he was as rigorous as Zhan Ge, he couldn't bear to say any reason for refusal, and he expected that the saint should be satisfied.
So, in order to satisfy his wife's bad taste, Zhan Ge put the saint outside the clouds, this is the first time, and it is definitely not the last.
Shuangshuang looked at the back of the lady, and felt a little sympathy for the saint, this is purely for the sake of the lady to abandon the king, Xu is Shuangshuang's expression is too funny, and the corners of the ink merchant's mouth showed a few smiles.
Quietly pushed open the heavy wooden door of the imperial study, Yan Wushuang carefully looked inside, just when even his father-in-law looked over, his eyes instantly widened, with obvious surprise, and before he could speak, he was stopped by Yan Wushuang.
Although he was a little puzzled, even his father-in-law still didn't speak, and when His Majesty was about to turn around, he hurriedly stepped forward: "Your Majesty, are you looking for this book?" ”
"Oh, exactly, you still know even your father-in-law." Taking advantage of this opportunity, Father-in-law Lian turned around and quietly took a look, Yan Wushuang was already hiding behind the pillar, although the corners of his skirt were somewhat exposed, but according to His Majesty's habits, it was impossible to see.
took the book and walked to the dragon chair and sat down, and the saint held his cheeks and was particularly aggrieved: "You say, when will Sister Wushuang and Brother Zhan come in to see me?" ”
"Your Majesty, rest assured, the county lord and His Royal Highness the King of the Side by Side may already be on the way, according to previous years, it should be there soon."
Even his father-in-law wiped the sweat from his forehead without a trace, hoping that His Majesty could spare his life for the sake of his loyalty.
"That's good, it's just that Brother Zhan is not easy this time, Sister Wushuang has been with him all the time, and she has forgotten me." The saint's heart is full of bitter water, and he can only complain about one or two here, and he still has to maintain his image outside.
Yan Wushuang, who was hiding behind the pillar, was very distressed about Lin'er, went out from the side, and stood beside the saint while he was restless.
"Lin'er, it's not that Sister Wushuang isn't worried about you, it's just that compared to you, Zhan Ge makes me even more unable to let go, but that doesn't mean I don't care about you."
"Sister Wushuang......" Shengshang turned his head, surprise and disbelief appeared at the same time, and before Yan Wushuang had time to comfort, Shengshang had already hugged Yanwushuang's arm with tears in his eyes, which was extremely kind.
Rubbing Yan Wushuang's arm, it was like seeing his mother's lamb, full of dependence: "Sister Wushuang, I thought you would never see me again." ”
"How is it possible, didn't I come? No, a New Year's gift. Yan Wushuang took a bag out of his sleeve and handed it to the saint.
The saint took Yan Wushuang's arm with one hand, and took the brocade bag with the other, looking at the bulging inside, there seemed to be something else: "What's inside?" ”
"No, it's inside and out, this one, I embroidered it myself, but I haven't done it before, it can only be to this extent, inside, it's a piece of beautiful jade that I found, and I asked a familiar craftsman to engrave a seal for you."
In Dayi, when a man can take on household chores, the elders will prepare a seal for him, which is a private seal with great symbolic significance.
Just like Zhan Ge, there are three chapters, which were given by Emperor Xian, Duke Wei, and King Sheng, which is also the inspiration for Yan Wushuang.
The pattern of the brocade bag looks a little jerky, however, the chapter inside is indeed good-looking, a piece of purple jade, beautiful and flawless, on it is a lifelike dragon, but from the dragon horns, this dragon, is still a young dragon.
Clenching the bag in his hand, the saint tried to blink his eyes to avoid the tears in his eyes: "Sister Wushuang, thank you." ”
"Thank you, I'm your sister." Looking at the neat long hair combed by the saint, Yan Wushuang still didn't rub his hair, but just patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him.
The door was pushed open, and the leaders were Wei Guogong and his wife, followed by Sheng Wang and Zhan Ge, and even Gonggong glanced at His Majesty and hurriedly ordered someone to serve tea.
"What's wrong with you? It's all manly, and they're crying. "Although King Sheng is dressed in brocade clothes and is very royal and noble, as soon as he opens his mouth, he is completely ruffian, which makes the Duke of Wei and his wife on the side very helpless.
casually threw a bag to the saint, and the saint hurriedly took it, and all the worries just now disappeared: "What is this?" ”
Yan Wushuang went down and stood beside Zhan Ge, King Sheng glanced at the two of them and nodded. Sitting on the Taishi chair on the side.
Such a well-made chair seems to be prepared for King Sheng, and it seems that it has been for such a long time before it can be used for King Sheng's exclusive seat.
"Just look at it."
The saint opened it suspiciously, and inside was a seal made of jade, with clear lines, and it was a natural tiger-shaped.
"What is this?" The saint looked up in surprise, and what he got was a casual roll of King Sheng's eyes: "Of course it's a gift for you, it should have been prepared by the imperial brother, but now I can only prepare it, who made me your imperial uncle." ”
"Your Majesty, it was just prepared by Weichen, but it was a little hasty, and I hope Your Majesty doesn't mind." Wei Guogong handed the box in his hand to the saint, who respectfully took it, opened it and saw that it was another seal, but it was carved wood.
"In the Wei Mansion, it has always been the seal carved by the father for the child, and it has been several years ago to prepare it for Rong'er, so it is a little rusty, please Your Majesty, don't dislike it."
Wei Guogong was a little embarrassed, all the people present were juniors, and it was indeed a little bad to know this.
The saint tightened his embrace, and he was very moved by the few gifts inside, but it was not easy to restrain his emotions: "...... Thank you. ”
"What do you say thank you, it's all your elders, okay, let's see what your brother will send you?" Yan Wushuang couldn't see the saint like this, it was so distressing, so he hurried over, hugged his shoulders, and comforted him with a little arrogance.
Even my father-in-law had already withdrawn with the others, so they were all acquaintances here, so there was no need to be afraid of others.
Everyone looked at Zhan Ge, and Zhan Ge's body who took off his cloak was a little thinner than before, but his expression was much gentler, as if this injury had made his edge a lot more restrained.
"Your Majesty, Master, Your Royal Highness King Sheng, this time in the northern Xinjiang, the minister found a large amount of iron ore there, the amount is roughly estimated, and it can arm an army of tens of thousands of people."
Several other people, except for Yan Wushuang, did not expect this incident at all, they were all shocked, tens of thousands of troops were armed, this is not a small number.
"Taking advantage of the opportunity they didn't know, the minister divided it into the land of Dayi and sent someone to look at it, just to be on the safe side, and only told His Majesty at this time, as a gift."
The saint seemed to be still shocked, and Yan Wushuang patted the saint's arm to bring him back to his senses: "How is it?" That's enough of a surprise, right? ”
"Brother Zhan, why do you want to tell me this?" The saint was a little puzzled, if it was useful, it would be good to give it directly to the army, why should he give it to himself.
Wei Guogong explained to the Shengshang: "As the Shengshang of Dayi, it is not only necessary to have all the known armies, but also privately, it is also very important, these are to ask the Shengshang to start selecting the right people and forming your private army, however, it is also important to pay attention to the division of power, these are another things, and after the New Year, I will explain it to you." ”
"Brother Zhan, thank you, I will not disappoint your expectations of me." The heavy love in his arms is the greatest support for him, what if there is no support from his mother's family? Those people caused him trouble, and he wanted the people left by his father to solve it for him.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little stiff, Yan Wushuang hurriedly forked: "Okay, okay, there are still two hours before the dinner, let's go and use something now, I haven't eaten in the imperial dining room for a long time, I'm a little greedy." ”
Between a few glances, he already understood what it was for, and King Sheng didn't have any difficulty for why, he got up and sorted out the folds of his clothes, but the saint was very moved.
By the time I sorted out my emotions and packed up my things and went to the side hall of the Qianqing Palace to eat, it was already half an hour later.
