Chapter 100: Wanli's Intentions (First Update)
If Qinghe Town was a mistake and a coincidence, then the absurdity of last night was the beginning of Chen Mo's real acceptance of Caiyu from his heart, and from then on, although the future is still slim, he will no longer be lonely. At the same time, on his shoulders that are not particularly strong, in addition to the long-cherished wish of Zhongxing Daming, there is another tender concern that must be shouldered - he is a real man, psychologically mature, but the physical coming-of-age ceremony is Caiyu helped him complete, from this point of view, Caiyu is not only the first woman in his life, but also the most important woman in his life.
This point, maybe even he didn't realize it, but from the moment he entered the imperial city, he sat upright on the horse, leaned closely next to the sedan chair, and approached the sedan curtain from time to time to comfort Caiyu in a whisper.
When he arrived at the Qianqing Palace, the early dynasty had dispersed, Chen You waited outside the palace gate, and when he saw the two of them, he greeted them, and first gave Caiyu a salute, and then said: "No need to pass the courtesy, the emperor said, if you two come, you will enter the palace directly." ”
These words made the two of them look at each other at the same time, and Chen Mo whispered to Chen You: "How is the mood of Long Live Lord?" No one him off earlier, right? ”
Caiyu also pricked up her ears to listen.
Chen You swept his eyes left and right, all of them were confidants, only Caiyu, it was the first time he had seen it, he looked at Chen Mo inquiringly, and saw that he nodded slightly, so he lowered his voice and said: "There was nothing big in the early dynasty, only Li Chengliang, the general soldier of Liaodong, sent a document to consult the household department's 'annual example' (note) and Shuntianfu Mansion Yin reported that seven children had lost seven children in the refugee gathering area under the rule of Wanping County, and this kind of thing happened every year. But this time, I lost seven at once, and it wasn't a big deal...... The emperor is approving the folds, and he doesn't seem to be in a good mood. Let's guess it should be because of the troubles of that year, you and Her Royal Highness the princess will talk more leisurely after you go in......"
Chen Mo nodded slightly, and asked again, "Did my father-in-law come back to the house last night?" Seeing Chen You shaking his head, he was secretly relieved, and said in his heart that he had saved himself the trouble of explaining.
As he spoke, he had already arrived at the door of Dongnuan Pavilion, and Chen You raised his voice: "Emperor, Her Royal Highness Princess Yongning and Chen Mo and Chen Mo Chen's father-in-law are here." Call in? ”
After waiting for a while, I heard Zhu Yijun's voice coming from inside: "Call in!" ”
Chen Mo saw Caiyu's body stiffen, ignoring that Chen You was beside him. Stretched out his hand and patted her on the shoulder, took the first step, and entered the warm pavilion proudly.
"Sister Yongning, see His Majesty the Emperor. Please punish the royal brother! ”
Caiyu knelt on top of the gold bricks first. Chen Mo also knelt down in a hurry: "The slave is guilty of capital crimes, please long live the lord to punish him!" ”
Zhu Yijun sat cross-legged in front of the kang table, holding a red pen and writing something, without speaking or looking up, and there was a deathly silence in the warm pavilion.
Caiyu's face turned pale, and Chen Mo slandered in his heart: "Come here again, even if Lao Tzu deceives you." In the end, you have avenged your sister, so let's scare and scare. I don't believe you can still take us! ”
Even so, I still have to do it, bow my head to the ground, and make a look of sincere fear.
On weekdays, they either call themselves "ministers" or call themselves "we", and if they make mistakes, they call themselves "slaves", slippery! Zhu Yijun scolded secretly, put the brush on the white jade pen stand, and said lightly with a face: "One is my imperial sister, and the other is my most trusted person, it is really rare to come together to ask for guilt...... Tell me, where is your sin? ”
"My sister shouldn't go out of Beijing without permission!"
"Minions shouldn't lie hooray!"
Caiyu said at the same time as Chen Mo, as if she was rushing to speak.
"Don't you know it all!" Zhu Yijun moved his stiff neck, turned sideways and stretched his legs, and suddenly slapped the kang table heavily, in the crisp sound of "pop", the pen holder and the teapot and teacup vibrated with a clang, and the voice suddenly rose an octave, and said angrily:
"What kind of behavior is it to know that you are guilty and want to do it? This is knowingly! Zhu Yaoying, what is your identity? You are my dignified princess Yongning, and you secretly ran out of the princess's mansion and spread it, so what do the people below say? Even if you have suffered and been wronged, why don't you tell me? Why didn't you tell the queen mother? In your heart, is there still me, and there is still a queen mother? ”
"Feng Bao bullied us so much, didn't you and the queen mother let him go? Tell you that it works? Caiyu has always had resentment in her heart, and when she heard the words at this moment, she couldn't help muttering in her heart, lowering her head and disapproving.
Zhu Yijun didn't know what Caiyu was thinking, and after finishing speaking, she looked at Chen Mo again and continued to reprimand loudly: "And you, knowing the true identity of Princess Yongning, even went to great lengths to trick me out, to make it believing." Who is she? She is the sister of my mother's compatriots, I am just kept in the dark, I really want to know, can I watch? Who do you think I'm like? ”
There was a bit of a heart-wrenching taste of these words, Chen Mo was faintly guilty, bowed his head and was silent, not knowing how to explain.
Zhu Yijun didn't speak, and the warm pavilion was quiet again. Outside the warm pavilion, Chen You was secretly frightened when he heard it, and couldn't help complaining: "Chen Mo, Chen Mo, your kid is getting bolder and bolder, and there is no time to stop...... The emperor came back so late last night, what did he say to drink and talk with you, and he was deceived by you for a long time, listening to this meaning, he must have left the imperial city, and this is going to be passed out......" He didn't dare to think about it, he glanced at the people who were standing with their heads bowed on the left and right, and commanded in a dark voice: "Today, if one word of these words spreads, don't even think about living for each of you, you know?" ”
Seeing that his face was full of murderous anger, everyone was silent, nodded their heads, and knelt down in one shot.
Chen Ju Chen You has been on an errand in the Qianqing Palace for some days, and under the management, the people who can now serve in front of the emperor are all henchmen, and he said this just to be prepared, seeing this, he nodded with satisfaction, no longer said more, and listened attentively to the movements in the warm pavilion.
In fact, the reason why Zhu Yijun is so angry today only accounts for a small part, most of the reason is just to use this to knock Caiyu and Chen Mo, the two of them are generally bold, if they are allowed to develop and remain silent, he is really afraid that one day the two of them will make a big mistake that is out of control.
Now seeing that the two of them were silent on the ground, they looked like they were honestly admitting their mistakes, they were silent for a moment, and then said, "Okay, get up!" The tone was lowered.
"Sister Chen's mistake is not daring to get up!"
"Slaves are guilty and dare not get up!"
Caiyu said at the same time as Chen Mo, as if they had rehearsed in advance.
Zhu Yijun smiled and said, "No wonder you said yesterday that Chen Mo was your friend, and you spoke in the same tone...... Not to mention, there are some places where the two of you are really a bit alike, the same boldness, the same stubbornness. As he spoke, he moved to the edge of the kang, and when Chen Mo saw this, he hurriedly took his boots and put them on for him.
Getting up and getting off the kang, Zhu Yijun walked up to Caiyu, picked it up personally, looked at her intently, and suddenly said: "Imperial sister, I have made you suffer, so many grievances, I even need an outsider to avenge you, I am a brother, I can't stand you!" As he spoke, he bowed deeply.
The emotion of what he said made Caiyu feel that he had returned to many years ago, when he had not yet ascended the throne, his eyes were red violently, and his resentment against him dissipated cleanly, and tears fell down: "Brother Huang! He fell on the kang table and began to cry.
Zhu Yijun had mixed feelings, raised his hand and wanted to pat her shoulder, his arm stretched out, hanging in the air, in the end, he cared about the difference between men and women, took it back, and glared at Chen Mo: "Didn't you see Yongning crying so sadly?" Still not coaxing? ”
Note: Due to the destruction of the military tun and the law of opening in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the army could not achieve self-sufficiency, and the government began to allocate a certain amount of silver taels to each side every year as a subsidy, called annual silver. As for Juntun and Kaizhong, they will be covered later, and there will be little explanation here. (To be continued......)
PS: It's really hard to ask for a recommendation ticket, let alone a monthly pass......
