Chapter 42: Meals

During the whole meal process, Sihan ate a little less, and Zhan Wenyi ate less than her, but the young emperor was in a happy mood, and it was extremely rare to eat in large gulps, and when the meal was finished, the young emperor was already full of greasy, grinning at Sihan and smiling brightly.

After the meal, Sihan said a few words to the young emperor, and then left.

Zhan Wenyi also spoke slowly, only saying that the sky was about to darken, and he was going to go out of the palace and return.

The young emperor nodded to Sihan and Zhanwenyi, and sent Sihan and Zhanwenyi out of the dormitory.

Outside the hall, the sky is already dark, and the surrounding palace lights are bright, as bright as day.

The evening breeze is coming slowly, but it is not as scorching as the noon.

Sihan and Zhan Wenyi walked one after the other, and for a moment, in the quiet and relaxed atmosphere, Zhan Wenyi softened his voice, "I used to think that the eldest princess was the daughter of a woman, bold and strong, but today I realized that the eldest princess would occasionally be gentle and gentle." ”

He raised his eyes to meet Sihan's eyes and smiled slightly, "In the past few days, I have been in contact with the eldest princess, and I only feel that the eldest princess is pressed by political affairs, and everything she says is worried about the country and the people, and she is not smiling, but today I know that the eldest princess is not smiling at any time, she is stern and dignified, only in front of the emperor, the eldest princess will smile gently, and even, let go of her guard." ”

Sihan didn't know if it was okay, turned around, didn't say anything, and walked forward slowly.

Behind him, Zhan Wenyi didn't make a sound, leaving his footsteps smooth and appropriate.

In the middle of the night, when he arrived at the fork in the road that was about to part ways with Zhan Wenyi, Sihan's expression moved slightly and stopped.

Zhan Wenyi also listened to the steps, and the sound of gentle footsteps came to an abrupt end.

Immediately, Sihan turned around, looked at him with a silent gaze, and said in a low voice: "Xu Gongzi is a student of Taifu Song, this palace is naturally closer to you than others in the court. ”

Zhan Wenyi bent down and bowed, and said gently and respectfully: "Weichen Xie Eldest Princess values it. But the eldest princess doesn't need to look at the master's face and bring up Wechen, if Wechen's virtue is lacking, or if he makes a mistake, I hope that the eldest princess doesn't need to worry, she will be punished directly, and she doesn't have to treat Wechen special because of the master's relationship. Moreover, as for the promotion of officials, the eldest princess does not need to be in a hurry, so that the ministers in the court and the central government feel that the eldest princess is biased and annoys the eldest princess. ”

His voice was gentle and respectful, but his words were tactful.

Sihan's heart is transparent.

He was tactfully asking her not to promote him and neglect him because of Mrs. Song, and not to deliberately open up to him because of this.

Sihan's expression was a little more distant, and his heart was a little more complicated.

If so, if all the ministers in the court are as loyal and reasonable as Zhan Wenyi, how can she, Yan Sihan, be in the midst of disasters and blood feuds, and still have to devote part of her energy to fighting with the courtiers.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt heavy and helpless.

After a long while, Sihan came back to his senses, and said in a low voice: "Young Master Xu doesn't have to worry about what this palace will be embarrassed about, even if you are not the apprentice of Taifu Song, your talent and experience are enough to be the emperor of this product." Moreover, the ministers of the court and the central government are originally the regent's henchmen, and there are not many who dare to speak the truth, so as long as the regent is aimed at you, the ministers of the court and the central government will naturally be moved by the wind. Now this court, the atmosphere is like this, but even if it is full of grass on the wall, it can't turn the sky, yes, with the palace in charge, Xu Gongzi doesn't need to feel guilty and pressure. ”

Zhan Wenyi was slightly stunned, then glanced at Sihan a little seriously, and then said gently: "Originally, Weichen didn't want the eldest princess to be embarrassed, but in the end, the eldest princess was relieved by Weichen." ”

As he spoke, his voice gradually became more and more distant, "Weichen's original intention to enter the court was just to follow the master's wishes and enter the court as an official to make him feel at ease." But at this time, thanks to the eldest princess being so valued, Weichen's wish now is to really serve the country and help the eldest princess. ”

Sihan's expression was slightly dark, and he looked at him quietly, and after a moment, he said in a low voice: "Thank you for being able to say this, Xu Gongzi." ”

As he spoke, he turned his eyes to the side and asked in a low voice, "Gongzi Xu stayed in the palace for a day today?" ”

"The emperor was very interested in learning words, so Weichen stayed in the palace for a day, taught him to learn words, and also told him about morality by the way." He didn't delay, and said gently.

"This palace has already said last time that Xu Gongzi only needs to stay in the palace in the morning, and if there is something in the afternoon, he can leave the palace on his own without any restraints." Sihan spoke slowly, and as he spoke, his gaze fell on him again.

Zhan Wenyi's face remained unchanged, and his words were still respectful and gentle, "It's really okay today, so I can stay in the palace longer." ”

As he spoke, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and his words changed slightly, "By the way, the eldest princess went out of the city with the regent today to give porridge, but it went well?" ”

Sihan's pupils shrank, and he said in a low voice: "Smooth is smooth, but there are also a lot of forks." ”

Zhan Wenyi's expression moved slightly, and he was about to continue to ask, Si Han glanced at him, then raised his eyes and swept the sky above his head, and said in a low voice one step ahead of him, "It's not too early, Xu Gongzi, you should go back to the house to rest early." ”

Zhan Wenyi held back his words slightly, then nodded slightly towards Sihan, and then bowed respectfully, and only said: "It's really not early, I think the eldest princess is tired today, yes, Weichen won't bother, and will leave first." ”

As soon as these words fell, after seeing Sihan nodding, he slowly turned around and gradually disappeared away.

Sihan watched his back quietly, and it wasn't until he disappeared into the depths of the night that she came back to her senses, and then walked towards Fengqi Palace.

When he returned to Fengqi Palace, he was tired, Sihan extinguished the candle flame, and went to bed.

I was probably really tired, and I fell asleep soon after I went to bed, and even slept until the next morning.

After getting up and dressing, the young emperor came.

Sihan greeted him first, and then took him to sit at the table for dinner.

After the meal, Sihan took the young emperor and continued to walk towards the Qinzheng Palace, but occasionally, Sihan lowered his eyes and saw the young emperor's frowning face.

Her expression deepened, and suddenly, the words of Zheqian suddenly overflowed from the bottom of her heart, and then she was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice to the young emperor, "Wei'er, do you like to be the emperor?" ”

She said this very slowly and softly, but in the bottom of her heart, she was inexplicably nervous.

The power of her life will be used to assist her younger brother, if, if her younger brother really doesn't like to be the emperor and really resists the throne, what should she do?

At this point, his thoughts gradually began to fluctuate.

However, when her words fell, the young emperor was only stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and did not speak.

Sihan's expression became deeper and deeper, forcibly restrained his feelings, and said softly: "Wei'er said what she wanted, no matter what, Sister Ah will not be angry." ”

"Sister, are you serious?" He suddenly looked up at Sihan, his expression slightly hesitant and empty-hearted.

Sihan pretended to look away naturally, "Seriously." ”

Only then did he feel relieved, and only said: "Sister, Wei'er doesn't like to be the emperor, and she doesn't like to go to court." All the adults in the court are targeting the imperial sister, and Wei'er doesn't like them to embarrass the imperial sister. ”

As he spoke, his voice lowered slightly, and he continued: "Wei'er asked Sister last time why she didn't let the Third Emperor Brother be the emperor, and Sister Ah said that if the Third Emperor Brother became the emperor, Sister Ah and Wei'er would die, but the Third Emperor Brother was very good to Wei'er, and he was also very good to Sister A, if the Third Emperor Brother was the emperor, how could he want Sister Ah and Wei'er's lives." Sister, besides, the concubine, she is also very good to Wei'er, and she is also worried that Sister A will be targeted by the courtiers and the regent, Concubine Shu also sighed and said that if Wei'er is not the emperor, if the third emperor brother is the emperor, the three emperor brothers will definitely give Sister and Wei'er a fief, so that Wei'er and Sister A can go out of the palace to live a good life, live and work in peace and contentment, and no longer have to be tired and angry. ”

The long words were immature, and the words revealed strong doubts and incomprehension.

Sihan's pupils shrank suddenly, and his complexion sank uncontrollably.

All children are unscrupulous, but they are also hurtful.

She forcibly pressed her mind, lowered her eyes to look at him, and said in a low voice: "Wei'er is the prince of the emperor, even if he gives way to the third emperor brother, he inherits the throne, and his name is not right." As long as you are gone, there will be no prince in this Dongling country, and at that time, he will be able to sit on his throne with peace of mind. ”

The young emperor frowned, "Even if the third emperor brother became the emperor, Wei'er and Sister A also went out of the palace to the fiefdom, Wei'er is no longer in the palace, and the third emperor brother will not regard Wei'er as a thorn in the eye." Moreover, Sister, the Third Emperor Brother is really good, and he is also very good to Wei'er, every time he goes out of the palace, he will bring gifts to Wei'er, and the Three Emperor Brothers will not harm Wei'er, nor will they harm Sister. ”

Sihan couldn't help but look away again, his pupils rose and fell, and his expression began to fade.

The young emperor of his own family really fell into the devil of Zheqian and Shufei, and it seems to be deep-rooted, and he is extremely biased towards Zheqian's mother and son.

A few days ago, when she saw that he favored Zheqian's mother and son, she only gently persuaded her and didn't think it was too much of a problem, but now it seems that this matter has undoubtedly developed to the point where she has to intervene.

His thoughts were churning, Sihan lost his mind slightly, and he didn't speak.

The younger brother suddenly felt weak, and asked cowardly Chao Sihan: "Sister, but Wei'er said something wrong and made you angry?" ”

When these words came into his ears, Sihan came back to his senses slightly, and then forcibly pressed his heart and said to him: "Sister promised Wei'er not to be angry, so she won't be angry." It's just that there are some things that Wei'er can't understand now, but when Wei'er grows up, she will know that there are some things that can't be allowed, and some people can't believe it. ”

The young emperor was stunned for a moment, frowned, and asked timidly: "Sister is saying that the third emperor brother and the concubine can't be trusted?" But they treat Wei'er really well. ”

As he spoke, he lowered his eyes again, and said with a slight grievance: "Besides, Wei'er doesn't want Sister Ah to be so tired and targeted like this." If Sister A is working so hard for Wei'er to be able to sit firmly on the emperor, Wei'er would rather not be the emperor, but also let Sister Ah be safe and happy. As long as Sister A is by Wei'er's side, as long as Sister Ah doesn't leave Wei'er, Wei'er will be satisfied. ”

The immature voice reveals a bit of fragility and pleading.

Sihan's heart began to tense slightly, and her complex, undulating complexion gradually became calm.

"Sister is not tired now, so don't worry about Sister Wei'er. As long as Wei'er is the emperor well, as long as Wei'er can understand Sister Ah and not disappoint Sister A, Sister will be satisfied. ”

After speaking, he lowered his eyes and smiled at him, even though his face was peaceful, his pupils revealed a bit of complexity and remoteness that could not be concealed.

The young emperor raised his eyes and stared at her for a few moments, and then nodded after all, and only said, "Wei'er, I know." ”

As soon as these words fell, he said no more.

Sihan stared at him with a little worry, and finally fell silent and stopped making a sound.

When entering the palace of diligence, hundreds of officials gathered and lined up neatly.

After Sihan and the young emperor sat down, Zhan Wenyi took the lead and called out.

The rest of the courtiers all saluted respectfully with different expressions, but most of them seemed to have not woken up, their postures were lazy, and their voices were lazy.

Sihan's indifferent gaze swept towards the courtiers, only to see that the courtiers were all there, and even Qingshan was standing behind with his waist bent, but Lan Yeyu was absent again......

That moth, it is really too bold and casual, even such a big thing as the last dynasty, can do it at will, thinking that it will come, and if it does not want to come, it will neither be invited in advance, nor will it be notified in advance, so it will simply not come.
