Zhan Wenyi didn't say anything directly, but said gently: "Can Wei Chen sit here with the eldest princess." ”

Sihan raised the corner of his eyes and was silent for a moment, "Emperor Fu, please." ”

"Thank you." Zhan Wenyi said calmly, after speaking, he slowly sat down on the stone bench opposite Sihan, and then turned his eyes and swept around, "The imperial garden of the palace, with its clusters of flowers and trees, and rockeries is horizontal, it is indeed an exquisite and comfortable place. ”

Sihan said lightly: "Yes, the imperial garden in the palace is exquisite and comfortable, but unfortunately, it is only exquisite and comfortable, and it is not of much use." ”

As he spoke, seeing Zhan Wenyi raise his eyes and look at her in a slightly surprised manner, Sihan's voice was slightly raised, "If the emperor has anything to say, you can say it to the palace." ”

She said it straight to the point again.

Zhan Wenyi's deep and gentle pupils were almost imperceptibly half lost.

But it was only a moment, he had already pressed the color of his pupils, naturally lowered his eyes, and said slowly to Sihan: "Weichen came here this time to talk to the eldest princess about Jiangyunnan. ”

Sihan's eyes were far away, and he didn't speak immediately, his slender fingers touched the cup in front of him casually again, "Jiangyunnan, how have you been in the past two days?" ”

"Dr. Weichen has diagnosed and treated him, but there are no external injuries in Jiangyun, and there are no internal injuries. It's just that he has always claimed that he was injured, his injuries are serious, and he has been staying in Xu's mansion, claiming that if he can't see the eldest princess, he will die in Weichen's mansion and don't want to leave. ”

Is it?

Once upon a time, Jiang Yunnan actually had such a cheeky skin?

It's just that, if you think about it carefully, Jiang Yunnan can stay in this palace for a while, isn't it just cheeky?

Sihan's heart gradually sank for a while, and he said in a low voice: "What does the emperor think about this person in Jiangyunnan?" ”

Zhan Wenyi did not delay, as if he had already thought about it, and said very bluntly and respectfully: "Weichen thinks that this person in Jiangyun must be guarded against. In the fight that day, although Wei Chen let him a few points, but the regent did not let him at all, in this case, Jiang Yunnan pretended to vomit blood, but in fact he was unscathed, such a person with strong martial arts behind him is really not like an ordinary Fengyue person. Moreover, since he is a person in Fengyue Field, he also likes gold and silver, and Wei Chen has also tempted him with gold and silver in the past two days, but he sneered at gold and silver, and he didn't care about it. ”

As he spoke, his voice sank slightly, and his tone became more rigorous and respectful, "Yes, Weichen dared to think that people like Jiang Yunnan had a deep and calculating heart. Therefore, it is a woe for such people to keep. ”

Sihan's expression moved slightly, and his face sank a little.

It is rare for Zhan Wenyi to say such words of life and death, which also shows that Jiang Yunnan is not safe in Xufu.

Speaking of which, as far as she is concerned, Jiang Yunnan is undoubtedly dispensable, she and Lan Yeyu were extremely conflicted that day, and Jiang Yunnan took advantage of the weakness to stabilize her mind, and even acted perversely and boldly, she thought that such a Fengyue person was a talent with a fierce personality, but unexpectedly, Jiang Yunnan was also deeply hidden and should not be underestimated.

At this point, Sihan was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Jiang Yunnan, this person, don't touch his life first, and don't startle the snake first." ”

Zhan Wenyi frowned, "Eldest princess, this person in Jiangyun is really a disaster, Xu Yes, it is indeed impossible to stay." ”

"This palace didn't care about his life, but the forces behind him. Moreover, the two incidents that have occurred in the palace these days are related to a man in black who has not yet been searched, but the strange thing is that when the man in black appeared twice, Jiang Yunnan could touch it squarely. ”

Zhan Wenyi's expression changed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "The eldest princess is suspecting that the two incidents in the palace are also related to Jiang Yunnan?" ”

Sihan nodded slightly, "This palace is indeed suspicious. After all, the last time there was a fire in the concubine's bedroom, the palace chased the man in black, but he was met by Jiang Yunnan in the Tai Hospital, if it wasn't for Jiang Yunnan's deliberate move to save the palace, the palace may have captured the man in black, but it was his rescue that hindered the affairs of the palace and allowed the man in black to escape. Second, on the night of the concubine's accident, the palace came out of the concubine's dormitory, and saw Jiang Yunnan entangled with the man in black, and Jiang Yunnan kept saying that the man in black was a woman, and he valued his appearance so that he robbed the color at night, but the man in black was full of fierceness, fierce and vicious, and strong, that kind of person, how could he be a woman. ”

Zhan Wenyi said in a low voice: "In this way, Jiang Yunnan must have a lot of secrets, and he must be guarded against, and he has to be investigated." ”

As he spoke, he pressed his heart, slowed down his voice slightly, and continued: "These days, Weichen will definitely take a good look at Jiang Yunnan, and he will also send someone to secretly investigate the affairs of Jiang Yunnan, and once there is news, he will report to the eldest princess." ”

"Hmm." Sihan looked at him a little and responded slightly.

Zhan Wenyi's expression moved slightly, and he changed his words, and said slowly: "Where is the emperor today......"

Sihan frowned, and before he could say anything, he was interrupted in a distant voice, "Your Majesty, Emperor Rong will pay more attention to it, and he will definitely teach strictly." The emperor doesn't need to take into account the following mistakes, if the emperor makes a mistake, you should count it, and you don't need to deliberately treat him because of his identity. ”

As he spoke, his eyes fell on Zhan Wenyi, and he sighed and said: "In this palace life, if you can't hope that the emperor will be close to this palace, I also hope that the emperor can be upright in three ways, not affected by treacherous and ill-intentioned people, and be a good gentleman." ”

Zhan Wenyi subconsciously choked on the words, and after staying for a while, he also sighed, "The eldest princess is kind and merciful to the emperor. Your Majesty, sooner or later you will understand the eldest princess's painstaking efforts. ”

Sihan laughed at himself, "I hope so." ”

Zhan Wenyi stared at her a few times and said no more.

Si Han was silent for a moment before he said in a deep and distant voice: "It's not early, and the emperor is not ready to leave the palace?" ”

Zhan Wenyi said slowly: "I'm ready to leave the palace at this time." It's just that Weichen still has one more thing, I don't know if the eldest princess deserves it. ”

"What?"

"Tomorrow, Weichen wants to take a day off."

Sihan's expression moved slightly, and he looked at him deeply, "Why did the emperor take a leave?" ”

Zhan Wenyi slowed down his gaze and only said: "Tomorrow is Weichen's birthday." The family has been preparing for the past few days, and I want to do a big job for Weichen. Tomorrow, Weichen needs to stay in the mansion and entertain guests. ”

Is it?

Sihan was slightly stunned, and was silent for a moment before he said slowly: "It's that the palace is negligent, and I don't know the birthday of the emperor." Anyway, tomorrow you don't need to go to court and give lectures, Ansheng will organize a banquet in the mansion. The palace is also here, and I wish the emperor a good birthday. ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhan Wenyi did not say anything.

After waiting for a long time in silence, he asked very calmly: "Tomorrow for lunch, the eldest princess wants to come to the mansion for a banquet?" ”

His voice was extremely rare and a little low, and vaguely, there was also a little distance and hope that could not be concealed.

Sihan raised the corners of his eyes, his pupils shrank, and his heart sank a little, and he was silent.

Zhan Wenyi quietly looked at her a few times, and said slowly: "At the Lantern Festival in East Lake last time, my mother had seen the eldest princess once, and she respected and liked it very much, and this time at the Weichen birthday banquet, my mother also kept saying that she wanted to see the eldest princess again, so ......."

Sihan pretended to be natural and lowered his eyes, sighed secretly, and only said: "The emperor's mother is a person with a good temperament. It's just that after the morning of tomorrow, the palace still has to deal with the twists and turns, so the banquet at noon may not be able to arrive. ”

She finally politely refused.

Zhan Wenyi's thoughts, she could feel a little more or less, yes, those strange feelings that were intertwined with unnecessary ascension undoubtedly had to be cut off as soon as possible. After all, Zhan Wenyi is a good person, a powerful minister, and a person she values, and she Yan Sihan, no matter what, doesn't want to hurt him and deceive him.

My thoughts were churning, and for a while, my mood became heavier and heavier.

Zhan Wenyi seemed to expect Sihan to refuse, and there was no surprise or fluctuation on his face, just his thin lips opened, and he continued to say calmly and distantly: "Then, what about the dinner?" ”

As he spoke, his voice was full of sighs and disappointment, "The eldest princess can't come for lunch, but she should have time to come over for dinner?" After all, in previous years, on the occasion of Weichen's birthday, he was running around and taking care of business, and he passed by hastily on every birthday, and now he is in Kyoto and in the court, so this birthday banquet is also the first time that he has been so wantonly organized. Weichen knows that the eldest princess has a lot of opportunities, but on Weichen's birthday, I also hope that the eldest princess can take a little time to celebrate with Weichen. ”

The long and distant words, the helplessness and sigh in the tone could not be concealed at all, as if he had known that Sihan would still refuse, that is, he was helpless in his heart, but he still invited again.

Sihan's pupils shrank, and when he said the words of refusal, he finally choked.

After waiting for a long time, she pressed her heart and said in a low voice: "On the occasion of dinner, this palace has time to come over to celebrate." ”

Zhan Wenyi was taken off guard for a moment, as if he didn't expect Sihan to suddenly agree.

His pupils suddenly rose and fell, and the helplessness on his handsome face was quickly replaced by relief and distantness.

After a moment, he bowed down to Sihan and said sincerely, "Thank you, eldest princess." ”

Sihan still lowered his eyes, did not glance at him, only was silent for a moment again, and then fell his gaze to the distance outside the pavilion where the lights were flickering, and said distantly: "No need to say thank you, it is natural to participate in the emperor's birthday banquet." It's just that some things are destined to be fruitless, so we should go back and retreat in the face of difficulties. In this world, there are some friendships to strive for, and some friendships that cannot be earned. ”

Her voice was far away, and her words were slightly euphemistic, hoping that this Zhan Wenyi could understand.

However, as soon as these words came out, Zhan Wenyi also said loudly: "If you don't try, how can you know if you can't win it." Moreover, people's hearts are all flesh and blood, and there is no friendship that cannot be won for, only that it is not enough to move people's hearts. ”

Sihan frowned, raised his eyes to look at him, "Imperial ......"

Before the words came out, Zhan Wenyi had already smiled slightly, "Like and care, it's just an emotion and state of mind, it has nothing to do with forcible occupation, and it has nothing to do with Fengyue." Yes, it's just a very faint sustenance, or maybe it's just appreciation. Yes, the eldest princess doesn't need to feel any burden, people's hearts and human nature are like this, if the eldest princess is even deprived of the appreciation of others, it is undoubtedly too cruel. ”

Sihan's pupils shrank suddenly, and the words choked in his throat, unable to speak.

She stared at him with undulating eyes, and suddenly, she felt that such an extremely serious Zhanwen wing, inexplicably elegant and even chic, suddenly made her a little unaccustomed.

The night was dark, Weichen didn't bother, and at this time, Zhan Wenyi didn't seem to want to say much, just a gentle and distant respectful farewell.

As soon as these words fell, before Sihan could react, he had turned around slightly and walked out of the pavilion, and then, he followed suit and disappeared into the depths of the night without looking back.

Si Han's eyes were deep and he stared quietly in the direction where he disappeared, and his cold face had already been covered by complex colors.

Tonight, for the first time, this Zhan Wenyi ignored her reaction so much, and simply left, although it seemed polite and gentle, and the farewell words were extremely respectful as usual, but he didn't wait for her to nod after all, and walked away.

Come to think of it, this exhibition of Wenyi must also be disappointed.

Some words, although they are euphemistic, they are also hurtful, just because, Zhan Wenyi and her Yan Sihan are both clear-eyed people, and those euphemistic words, how can they hide the true meaning.

Thoughts were churning, sighing in my heart, and for a while, even the joy of enjoying the night was completely gone.

Si Hanwu was silent for a long time, before forcibly pressing her heart, getting up and leaving the pavilion, and after leading Shan Zhongze and others back to Fengqi Palace, she immediately freshened up, and then went to sleep on the bed.

Until, after the third watch in the middle of the night, sleepiness hit slightly, Sihan closed his eyes, breathed a sigh of relief, and finally fell asleep gradually and completely.

The next day, I woke up a little early.

After washing up and eating, Sihan did not delay and walked quickly to the court.

Above the court, there are not many trivial matters, and they can still deal with it, but although Zhan Wenyi is absent, Lan Yeyu is also inexplicably going to the court.

After a little questioning, some ministers replied that Lan Yeyu was in charge of the general election and was busy.

Sihan didn't think much about it, just nodded indifferently, but after the early court, just out of the gate of the Qinzheng Palace, Shan Zhongze, who was waiting outside the door, greeted Sihan with complicated eyes, and said in a low voice: "Eldest princess, my subordinates have something to report." ”

This single Zhongze rarely has such a complicated moment.

Sihan's heart suddenly sank for a while, and he asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?" ”

Shan Zhongze said in a low and respectful voice: "Early this morning, the regent sent people to post notices all over Kyoto to choose a horse for the eldest princess, and there is no restriction on the person who can choose a horse. The place where the relatives are selected is carried out in the regent's palace, and each candidate must be personally seen by the regent, and when the regent sees it, the regent will send someone to paint a portrait of him. ”

Sihan's pupils shrank suddenly, and he was stunned.

The dignified princess and concubine, even the three religions and nine streams can run for election at will?

That Lan Yeyu, is he helping her or harming her?

At this point, Sihan's heart sank a little, and when he was about to speak, Shan Zhongze's resolute and deep voice rose again, "In addition, the regent also has a rule, that is, the men of appropriate age after the civil and military officials in the court must enter the regent's palace for the regent to see, if not, it is the crime of disobeying the will of the eldest princess." ”

said, his voice was slightly raised, "Now in this Kyoto City, the matter of the eldest princess's choice of husband has become known to everyone, and people are panicking, and everyone is saying yes, the eldest princess is ......."

As soon as the words arrived here, Shan Zhongze suddenly choked on the words.

At dusk, Weichen waited outside the gate of Xu's mansion, looking at the eldest princess, and came to the banquet early to say goodbye.

Sihan looked at him with undulating eyes, "How can the people in Kyoto City talk about the main palace?" You just say it. ”

Shan Zhongze frowned, and said in a low voice: "It is rumored in Beijing that the eldest princess is a fierce god and evil dominatrix, and she does not choose food, and she does not even let go of the three religions and nine streams when she chooses a husband. also said that the eldest princess is vicious and difficult to do, covering the sky with one hand, if anyone marries the eldest princess, who is destined to be a puppet and angry, that is, the whole family will have bad luck. ”

Is it?

Sihan raised the corners of his eyes, and his expression was really cold.

From this point of view, this so-called general election, Lan Yeyu is already known to everyone?

Thoughts were churning, Sihan did not speak, and the steps under his feet also moved forward slowly as usual.

After moving forward for a while, she said in a low voice without looking back: "Let's wait and see what happens, the regent should act in a measured manner." ”

Shan Zhongze's face was full of seriousness and worry, "The eldest princess believes in the regent so much? If the regent really has the heart to choose a husband for the eldest princess, how can he run for election? ”

Sihan's expression was distant, and he said in a low voice: "The matter has come to this point, it is useless to say more, everything that should be spread has been dispersed, what can be done this time is to wait and see what happens, and find a good way out." ”

As he spoke, his expression moved slightly, and his voice was slightly raised, "Send more people to secretly watch the Regent's Palace, and if there is anything abnormal, come back quickly." ”

Shan Zhongze's face was full of helplessness, he hesitated for a moment, but finally compromised and responded slowly.

Sihan's expression was distant, and he didn't say anything more, and his feet were still moving forward gently.

After entering the imperial study, she did not delay, and began to review the folds, and waited until noon, before all the folds were completed, but when she just got up and returned to Fengqi Palace, suddenly a palace slave came with a brocade box, saying that it was sent by Zhanwenyi.

Sihan was slightly stunned, his pupils shrank, and he said in a low voice: "Take it in." ”

The palace slave did not dare to delay, responded respectfully, and then hurriedly stepped in with the brocade box, and when he stood in front of Sihan, he handed the brocade box to Sihan.

Sihan's face was silent, his eyes were slightly complicated, and he didn't reach out to take it until he glanced at the brocade box in the palace slave's hand a few times.

Instantly, the fingertips touched the brocade box, but felt that the brocade box actually had a temperature, and when he took the brocade box and lifted the lid, he saw that there was a stack of flour made of longevity peaches in the brocade box.

I have to say that Zhan Wenyi is really a careful and considerate person, but it is a pity that this kind of carefulness and thoughtfulness fell on her Yan Sihan, which is undoubtedly a bit of a waste.
