Chapter 59: Will You Take the Lead?
Now the border is in turmoil, the lives are devastated, Zheng Liangda commanded the order to kill the enemy at the border pass, but the food and grass are insufficient, and the letters from the border pass are dusty on the emperor's imperial case.
After Huan Yi entered the palace today, Xiao Wei urged the construction of another garden, just because he was bored living in the palace, and wanted to take the beauties in his harem to the mountains and rivers outside the palace.
Now that the treasury is empty, where is there any silver, the emperor only called Huan Yu into the palace to discuss this matter.
Who in the world doesn't know that the emperor's mediocrity and extravagance are mostly instigated by Huan Yu, and the ministers really can't see the absurdity of the emperor, so they also try their best to persuade him, but Huan Yu has never persuaded him, and even how unreasonable things are, he can do them properly.
Seeing that Huan Yu agreed to help him plan, Xiao Yu couldn't help but be happy, so he only rewarded the royal banquet again, and even rewarded a few beauties to serve on the side.
Halfway through the wine, Xiao Yu was already drunk, hugging the two beauties beside him, grinding his ears and temples without scruples.
Huan Yu's face was still faint, just eating his meal quietly, while the beauties around him poured wine for him very diligently, and even rubbed it on his body intentionally or unintentionally.
"Huan Yu, you are still so snub to the beauty, you don't sit still, but for that woman?" Xiao Wei's voice was drunk, "That girl is indeed very beautiful, delicate like a flower, especially when I am happy under me, my heart is about to break when I cry." ”
When such words were said so bluntly, several women in the room were suddenly shocked, and the beauty who poured wine for Huan Yu was even more unstable, and half of the wine was spilled.
But Huan Yu didn't notice it at all, and his face was still flat.
"It's just that girl really doesn't know what to do, I thought about letting her enter the palace, but I didn't expect to commit suicide in front of the Buddha, hum-" After speaking, Xiao Yu poured a sip of wine violently, and his face was full of anger.
Soon the meal ran out, Xiao Yu looked at Huan Yu with drunken eyes, and then said, "Do you like these beauties Aiqing?" Why don't you send it to the mansion? ”
When those beauties heard this, their faces were immediately full of joy, and they just wanted to follow Huan Yu immediately.
Huan Yu stood up from the chair calmly, and said respectfully, "Weichen's family education is very strict, but I am afraid that my father will be angry again and hurt his body, it will be all Weichen's sin." ”
"Your father is so stubborn, all the affairs of the court have been handed over to him, but he is still not satisfied, and he even has to close the love of my harem." Xiao Wei's face was full of anger.
"The emperor is happy and angry." Huan Yu knelt on the ground, "Father serves you faithfully, and there is no second heart. ”
"I know the loyalty of your Huan family, and you have made the first contribution to my eradication of the Qing family." Xiao Yu said that his face softened a little at this time, and then continued: "It's just that I see that the Protector is no longer useful, so it's better to find him a spare job, and this title will be given to you earlier, which is right." ”
"Wechen doesn't dare."
At this time, Xiao Wei was already drunk, and he only thought about the beauties in his harem, "That's it, go back to the house." ”
Only then did Huan Yu retreat respectfully, and only when he left the palace gate, a cold wind blew over, blowing half of the wine on his body.
He walked down the steps of the white marble, and after only a few steps, he saw a few attendants dragging a few women in the Shicai Hall outside, they were already tied up, their mouths were blocked, and they only whined and cried.
They heard Xiao Yu's words, and Huan Yu didn't want them, so naturally they couldn't keep it.
A few women of all ages were selected from the south of the Yangtze River to enter the palace, and they had not yet won the favor of the emperor, but they did not expect to die.
Several women saw Huan Yu and only looked at him with pleading eyes, but it was just his words, and their lives were saved.
But Huan Yu's face was still full of lightness, and when his gaze skimmed over the eyes of the women, his heart, which had been cold for many years, seemed to finally feel a trace of pain.
It's like seven years ago in Tantuo Temple, the green kite is like a deer bitten in the mouth by a tiger and leopard, and there is nothing else but despair.
It wasn't until the figures of those women disappeared into the endless night that the pain in his heart gradually disappeared.
Outside the palace, Bu Cai and the guards of the mansion had been waiting for several hours, and then they saw the palace door open, and Huan Yu came out of the palace unhurriedly.
The palace gate was brightly lit, and there were a few bats hovering around, occasionally burned by the flames, and making a terrible cry.
Bucai hurriedly greeted him respectfully, only a long way away, and muttered, "It's amazing, the adults are in a bad mood today, and you are serving so well." ”
A few guards couldn't help but secretly check, but Huan Yu's face was the same as usual, where he looked angry, and he didn't know where he saw it.
However, after returning to the mansion, the footstool that the guard at the door hurriedly moved, but because of a momentary panic, the footstool was crooked to the side, and Huan Yu's feet just stepped down, which almost made Huan Yu trip.
The little guy suddenly knelt on the ground, "My lord, spare my life." ”
There was not much panic in his voice, he had heard in the past few days that the second young master was very sympathetic to the minions, even if the minions made mistakes, they had to get by. I thought in my heart that it was fortunate that it wasn't Huan Yi, but I was afraid that I don't know how many heartwarming feet I have suffered this time.
A cold wind blew, and Huan Yu's face was still flat without any expression, and he only said after a long time, "Go and send him away." ”
Bucai's face changed, "Yes." ”
The little guy naturally didn't know what it meant to be dismissed, and when he waited for the guards to pull him, he was frightened.
Soon a few guards behind him pulled the little guy to the ear room next to the door, and strangled his neck with his belt, but he didn't breathe for a moment.
Only then did he follow Huan Yi to the mansion, and soon passed through the winding corridor, and after the Linyue Tower, Huan Yu's courtyard was passed.
And on the pavilion in front of the Linyue Tower, there was a woman sitting faintly, in the moonlight and snow, it seemed a little ethereal, as if she heard footsteps, and only slowly turned her head.
I was suddenly shocked, why was she?
But I saw the brocade of the ink body, the head was combed with a wishful bun, and a petal was painted between the eyebrows, like a fairy fairy, although it was not extremely beautiful, but it was also unforgettable.
When she saw someone coming, her eyebrows and eyes were slightly raised, and she raised the fishing rod in her hand, "The concubine is fishing, the second son, please take it." ”
"Where did this fish come from, the lake is frozen." He frowned and said without thinking.
"Since these fish don't dare to take the bait, what about the second son?" She squinted at him, smiling, "Would you ratt?" ”
