Chapter 179: Nominal but Unreal
"Xianggong, is the emperor really assassinated?" , Yan Mengyun, who had little to say during dinner, also took the initiative to inquire at this time, indeed, this kind of thing is indeed a "rare encounter in a hundred years", if you really encounter this kind of thing, who doesn't have a gossip heart?
"Hmm...", Peng Yue's chopsticks stopped, frowning slightly, "Yes, I didn't expect it either, but this kind of royal secret... It's better not to mention it..."
"Oh...", Yan Mengyun nodded and closed her mouth knowingly, but suddenly she seemed to remember something, "Xianggong, is this matter still secret?" I heard from the maid in the house that yesterday the government had posted a notice to punish those who plotted rebellion... Ling Chi was put to death..."
"Huh...", when Peng Yue heard Yan Mengyun say this, he couldn't help but tremble, and a strange feeling came up. Peng Yue, www.biquge.info pen fun pavilion, felt panicked when he thought of several little girls being sentenced to Ling Chi and cutting off the meat piece by piece with a knife.
"What's wrong with Xianggong? But what's wrong? Yan Mengyun saw that Peng Yue's expression was different, and hurriedly asked with concern.
"It's nothing...", Peng Yue was embarrassed to tell his daughter-in-law that he was scared, so he hurriedly diverted the conversation, "Has this matter spread?" ”
"Of course, the government has posted notices...", Yan Mengyun took a bite of food, thinking to herself how her husband could ask such an unqualified question...
Peng Yue didn't care about Yan Mengyun's answer, because in later generations, he always regarded this matter as a "strange case", and he never understood what the truth was, but now after understanding the truth, he was a little dumbfounded. Yes, it's been a few days since this kind of thing could be hidden. Presumably, the streets and alleys of the capital don't know how many versions will be derived...
"If those maids are true, how can they do such a rebellious thing? In the end, he took his own life. Think of a couple of little girls... Alas, it's amazing..."
Peng Yue listened to Yan Mengyun sighing on the side. I couldn't help frowning slightly. He knew that Yan Mengyun had a good heart, but when he heard Yan Mengyun say that a few maids were rebellious, he was still unhappy in his heart.
Of course, he can understand Yan Mengyun's education since childhood, and he will naturally be incomprehensible and even dissatisfied with those "rebellious" maids. But Peng Yue didn't think so, he never felt that the emperor was much higher than people, and even when he saw Zhu Houxi's enthusiasm for cultivation, appointing traitors, and ignoring the people. I was very resentful in my heart: how could I let such a thing be the emperor!
Zhu Houxi's cultivation tricks in the palace, Peng Yue naturally heard of them, and was even very angry: How can there be such a devastating person? Does this still treat people as human beings? But Zhu Houxi really doesn't treat them as human beings...
So Peng Yue can understand the behavior of those servants: if they don't do this, it's strange, they are simply tortured to death, if they don't take revenge, is it justified? But in fact, basically no one has the idea of revenge, or even the concept of revenge...
Even Peng Yue secretly thought: Why didn't those handmaidens succeed in killing Zhu Houxi? Is it really fate? It's really a good person who doesn't live long, and the scourge lasts for a thousand years...
Of course, Peng Yue naturally couldn't tell Yan Mengyun these words, even if he wasn't afraid that she would denounce her for being rebellious. I'm afraid that she can't accept this "advanced viewpoint" of herself.
"Okay, don't sigh...", Peng Yue smiled at Yan Mengyun. Since the emperor is fine, I still need to visit the palace another day, but I don't know if I can get the emperor's summons..."
"Hmm... When the time comes, the princess will talk to the concubine. The concubine prepared the gifts for entering the palace...", Yan Mengyun said as she put down the dishes and chopsticks. It seems to be full, "Xianggong." You know what? I heard that it was not only the handmaidens who were executed this time, but also two concubines, one seems to be called Concubine Duan, and the other seems to be called Concubine Wang Ning..."
"Oh? Hmm...", Peng Yue was startled at first, and then understood, he remembered that two concubines had died in this palace change, and the reason was naturally Queen Fang's jealousy...
Yan Mengyun couldn't help but be a little disappointed when she saw Peng Yue's strange look, and just wanted to say something more, but a subordinate came over, bowed down and said to Peng Yue, "Master, there is an adult surnamed Xu who claims to be the right attendant of the Ministry of Officials and asks to see..."
"Oh? Xu Jie? Peng Yue happily put down the dishes and chopsticks, "Hurry up and invite him to the lobby... No, I'll see you in the study..."
At this time, there were more people in the house, and there were some things that Peng Yue didn't want Yan Mengyun to know, so he changed the place to meet important guests to the study.
"Xianggong, aren't you going to eat?" , Yan Mengyun stood up, looked at Peng Yue and asked.
"I don't eat it... I won't eat it...", Peng Yue waved his hand at Yan Mengyun, "Mengyun, you go back to the room first, I'll finish discussing things with people, and I'll go back in a while..."
"Hmm...", Yan Mengyun nodded, "Xianggong, then I'll go back first." Recently, the weather has gotten colder, and I'll go back... Add a mattress...", Yan Mengyun glanced at Peng Yue, then pulled away from her skirt, but there was a trace of loneliness in her eyes that was not easy to hide.
Peng Yue avoided Yan Mengyun's eyes with some shame, because he knew the meaning in Yan Mengyun's eyes. Since the two got married, they have the name of husband and wife, but there is no husband and wife, Peng Yue didn't mention it at first, Yan Mengyun was naturally embarrassed to say.
But the two have been living together for several days, but Peng Yue has been like a "dead man" at night, and there is no movement at all, Yan Mengyun can mutter. On the first day, Yan Mengyun thought that Peng Yue was too tired, so the two of them failed to do their job, but in the following days, every night, Yan Mengyun couldn't help but worry in private.
Does my husband dislike me? Or does the husband have a problem with me from the bottom of his heart? Countless thoughts flashed through Yan Mengyun's mind, but she was embarrassed to ask Peng Yue, thinking that maybe one day would be fine, but she never waited for a result.
In fact, Yan Mengyun also took the initiative to try and deliberately had some physical contact with him. But Peng Yue either took the initiative to move away, or he didn't take it seriously, and there was no follow-up action at all...
As soon as she thought of this, Yan Mengyun was angry for a while, but apart from this matter, Peng Yue really didn't have anything wrong, he talked to himself every day with a pleasant face, never talked to himself, and would chat with himself in his spare time. Even he knew that he liked poetry, songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, etc., so he specially set up two large rooms as his study, and the decoration was also very good, but Yan Mengyun always felt that something was wrong, as if there was something between the two...
In fact, while Yan Mengyun had so many ideas, Peng Yue also felt awkward. God knows that when I go to bed every night, there is a big beauty with a ******** lying next to me, and I can't touch it myself...
Peng Yue knew that Yan Mengyun was a good girl, and he also felt guilty about her in his heart, so he was doubly good to her on weekdays, wanting to make up for it. But these things always can't make up for the fact that the two are not husband and wife, Peng Yue also had evil thoughts at night, but when he thought of Yan's father and son, his **** was extinguished...
Maybe he feels that he will eventually turn against Yan's father and son in the future, and at that time, he may be separated from Yan Mengyun, but she has become his wife, what else can she do? Maybe Peng Yue was afraid that he would be too affectionate with Yan Mengyun, and he couldn't give up on her even more after becoming a husband and wife...
In short, Peng Yue felt more and more that his reasons were a little ridiculous, and his psychological defense line was slowly about to collapse... (To be continued.) )
