Chapter 149: Three Thousand Green Silks
The emperor, who was recuperating from his illness, encountered two difficulties today, one was Chen Zhiming, the new head of the Sixing Temple recommended by Liu Changgong, and the other was Liu Yan's courtship. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
But after hesitating, they all agreed, but the two people who came to ask for the decree didn't seem to be so smooth, and they seemed to be suppressing something.
The day after tomorrow is January 18, and it is a very hasty thing to think about, but some people are happy and some are worried, Wang Quanming is very hard to prepare for his daughter's family affairs, and the invitation card of Yanhu Villa alone has been sent out 3,000 sheets, and it seems that everyone in the world knows about it.
Beat gongs and drums to prepare for two days, on this day, until the end of the day, Liu Yan took a break from his busyness and drank alcohol in the courtyard.
"The night dew is cold, and His Highness is not afraid of typhoid fever?" Banrong's slightly concerned voice came from behind, which made Liu Yan a little surprised, and couldn't help but get up and ask, "It's so late, why are you here?" ”
"Ruoyu is my sister, Your Highness, don't look at her cold-faced, in fact, her mind is simple and direct." Banrong stood in place, neither entering the temple nor leaving the courtyard.
Liu Yan suddenly understood, and teased: "Are you not at ease, come to tell me, right?" ”
"Sort of," Ruoyu swept his gaze over the wine jug in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness shouldn't drink so much wine tonight, if you can't get up tomorrow, something will happen......
"No, don't worry, it's nothing." Liu Yan didn't care, and took another big sip of wine as he spoke.
Half-tolerant of the urge to take away the wine jug, he sat down on the stool next to him, and said with some loss: "Actually, Ruoyu just married His Highness like this, I don't approve of it." ”
"What's wrong?" Liu Yan also sat down and said in surprise.
Banrong glanced at him, and when he smelled the smell of wine all over his body, he couldn't help frowning, and stepped back an inch slightly: "Ruoyu likes His Highness, doesn't His Highness know?" ”
"I know ......"
"Then His Royal Highness married the Langya Wang clan for the sake of rights, is this fair to Ruoyu?"
Liu Yan chuckled. Suddenly approached her, leaned straight to the tip of her nose and said, "I asked her, if she doesn't want to, I won't force her." No one persecuted anyone in this family affair, everyone was voluntary. ”
"Voluntary? Why did His Highness and Ruoyu look sullen, His Highness even borrowed wine to drown his sorrows on the eve of the wedding. Isn't it ridiculous? If Your Highness doesn't like Ruoyu, can you not treat Ruoyu like Princess Yongming? I don't want Ruoyu to become the second Yongming. Banrong said sarcastically.
"Who has not fallen for power since ancient times? I'm not the first person to do this, my father, my brother, my ministers, and even the rich people, which man is married, isn't the right person? Do you want to talk to me now? Is it up to me to call these shots? Liu Yan grabbed her arm as he spoke, stared at her eyes, and said word by word: "I used to want to be the master, but some people rejected me." ”
Half-taken aback, he hurriedly brushed his hand away. Looking out of the courtyard, for fear of being seen, he got up with a little panic and said: "Your Highness is drunk and is talking nonsense, in short, I hope Your Highness treats Ruoyu well and doesn't wronged Ruoyu." ”
Without waiting for Liu Yan to respond, Banrong hurriedly rushed out of the courtyard, just bumping into Chu Shenxia who was hurrying over, and stumbled on his steps. The whole person was planted backwards.
Chu Shenxia took her into his arms and scolded in a low voice, "What are you doing in a hurry? ”
Banrong didn't say much, simply thanked him, and hurriedly walked away.
"You're here? Sit. Drink with me and don't get drunk tonight. Liu Yan turned his head and saw Chu Shenxia coming, so he waved to him with a smile.
After Chu Shenxia approached, he was stunned, and there were more than a dozen wine jugs piled up on the stone table, and he slowly sat down. Only then did he say: "Is Your Highness planning to drink all the wedding wine used for tomorrow's wedding banquet?" ”
"I'm upset." Liu Yan pushed a pot of wine in front of Chu Shenxia, and said with a confused look in his eyes, "I will definitely hurt Ruoyu, I was thinking that if she knew that I and the Langya Wang clan wanted to coexist with each other's strength on the surface, but in fact, we wanted to restrain each other to death, what would happen to her?" ”
"What else? It's just a little harder. Chu Shenxia put the wine jug back on the stone table.
Liu Yan shook his head, took a sip of wine and said, "Do you think I'm drunk?" What you said is too cold, you must know the price of this gamble, either he dies or I die. ”
"What if I speak coldly? It was Your Highness who did this, and Your Highness knew in his heart that when that day really came, I would say it a little lightly. Chu Shenxia stood up the wine jugs on the table one by one, and glanced at Liu Yan from time to time.
Liu Yan was stunned, she even forgot to drink, was stunned for a while, and muttered: "If Ruoyu had never liked me, then she would have felt much better." ”
Chu Shenxia chuckled, raised his eyes to Liu Yan's eyes, and said, "Your Highness will feel better in your own heart, right?" ”
Liu Yan secretly clenched the wine jug, wanted to drink it but didn't drink it, but in the end he still sighed and gently put it on the stone table, "I'm tired, you should go back and rest early." ”
Under the same moonlight, someone in the Guan Ju Palace sighed the same, Xunzhi tiptoed behind Yongming and comforted: "Niangniang, the weather is cold, it's better to rest early." ”
"Xunzhi, what can I do to be deposed by the crown prince?" Yongming saw that it was Xunzhi, so he pulled her over and sat down in front of him.
When Xunzhi was about to sit down, when he heard this, his feet were weak, and he sat down and jumped up immediately, and said in horror: "What is Niangniang talking about?" Don't scare the slaves. ”
"You don't have to be so nervous, sit down," Yongming stretched out his hand and pressed her on the stone bench, and said with a relaxed expression, "You see that your sweat is out, Your Highness wants to take Ruoyu girl as a concubine, what about me, I have no fate with Your Highness in this life, why do I still occupy the position of the crown princess?" It's better to fulfill the two of them, after all, Miss Ruoyu likes His Royal Highness, everyone can see it. ”
"!" Xunzhi, who has always been gentle and gentle, suddenly went against the norm and couldn't help but shout.
Yongming saw that her eyes were sad, and he knew that she was sorry for herself, and smiled and said: "Xunzhi, you are different from Yuan Qing, Yuan Qing is still young, you don't understand anything, you are a few years older than me, and you know more about nature than me, many people are sophisticated, I can't see through it, can't you still understand it?" Your Highness and I, you should know very well that there is no room for redemption, not from the beginning. ”
"Niangniang is still young, and everything has a chance, such as ...... When Niangniang was sick, His Royal Highness really cared about Niangniang. Xunzhi couldn't find words for a while, and paused before squeezing out a sentence.
It sounded very ridiculous to Yongming, thinking of him, his eyes suddenly sharpened, his bloodless white lips shook, and said: "Those things he has done, don't mention it, I ask you now, what can you do?" ”
"This ......" Xunzhi hesitated, still refusing to say a word.
"Tell me, I beg you, you know that I won't live for a few months, do I really want to spend my miserable life in this East Palace?"
Yongming's almost pleading voice made Xunzhi very moved, and finally frowned, and said ruthlessly: "There is indeed a way, as long as the mother twists her hair and pretends to take refuge in Buddhism, she can get out of the East Palace, presumably His Royal Highness can't pester Niangniang to be the crown princess." ”
Yongming didn't speak, pursed his lips and lowered his head to think, this method is good, it is inevitably a little decisive, tomorrow is the prince's wedding banquet, but he wants to hang out of the house, isn't this embarrassing him in public?
Seeing that her heart was soft, Xunzhi was a little happy, and said quietly: "Other than that, there is no other way, Niangniang, it's really not early, why don't you go in and rest early?" ”
"Good ......" Yongming Mu Ne said a word, and was supported by her again, and walked towards the dormitory with a wooden voice.
At dawn, the sound of roosters wakes people up from their sleep, and there is no one in the bazaar yet, but the East Palace is already lively.
"Tap, tap! If this is broken and your Highness is mistaken, I think you will do what you are going to do? ”
"Eh, why did the words on this candle fall, the eternal knot is one less Yongzi, how unlucky, what's the matter with you? What are you doing here? Hurry up and change it! ”
"A few little ancestors, don't play here, let's go out."
Chong Bufan, Yuan Qing and Lu Xun came out from behind the tent and stuck out their tongues at Grandpa Mei, and then ran away with a smile.
Several people ran to the outside of the prince's dormitory again, and looked at the courtyard carefully, only to see that the prince was dressed in red, and a golden dragon was embroidered on his chest, which was very magnificent.
"Wow!" Several people couldn't help but shout in surprise, this surprise was not for Liu Yan, but was frightened by Princess Yongming standing behind her.
The hair that used to grow to be coiled up, but now it only reaches the neck, and what she holds in her hand is the cut hair, followed by the trembling Xunzhi.
"Princess, what's wrong with your hair?" Yuan Qing was the first to pounce and said worriedly.
"What's going on out there?" Liu Yan's voice suddenly came from the courtyard, and after a while, the person had already walked to the gate of the courtyard, and when he saw Yongming, his eyes were shocked, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
The woman twisted her hair, in the eyes of the people of the Southern Song Dynasty, it was no different from a monk, Liu Yan's eyes jumped and jumped, pulled her into the courtyard, and said angrily: "What are you doing here?" ”
"Your Highness, my heart to become a monk is categorical, and I hope Your Highness will not stop me," Yongming looked at Liu Yan firmly, and handed the broken hair tied in his hand to him, and said coldly: "On the occasion of parting, it is the day of His Highness's wedding, and I have nothing to give, so I will use my three thousand green silk as a wedding gift for His Highness." ”
Liu Yan's gaze moved from the broken hair to her face, grabbed her wrist, gritted her teeth, and said, "Do you still know that today is my wedding day, you actually did such an outrageous thing, who instigated you?" ”
Xunzhi on the side was shocked, and he was about to kneel down on his knees, but was stopped by Yongming: "You all go out, this is a matter for me and His Highness." ”
