Chapter 114: Tell Yourself

When he asked like this, Ruoyun's originally calm mind was in turmoil, and there was a dull pain in her chest, so she shook her head hurriedly and said, "Back to the emperor, the concubine is thinking about things, not about whom." ”

Seeing her dark expression and blunt tone, Rong Jinhuan's face softened, and he sighed: "That's it, if there is a person in this palace who thinks about things, all of them are troublesome people." ”

Ruoyun was sighed by him like this, seeing him supporting his chin with his hand and his phoenix eyes showing an impatient look, he understood a little.

Last night, the emperor came to the Shuchang Pavilion, and returned to the palace angrily in less than half the night, and this matter was spread in the palace early in the morning, saying that Hu Jieyu was disrespectful, which angered the emperor. Xiaohong also specially brought it to her, thinking that Rong Jinhuan was annoyed by Hu Shu'er at the moment, and Hu Shu'er didn't know how to restrain himself, so maybe he really said something that made him angry.

Ruoyun sat down at the side table at his signal, and said in a casual voice: "Your Majesty, you have every opportunity, and when you have time, you can rest more, and it is better to worry about it and be happy." ”

Rong Jinhuan's phoenix eyes closed slightly, swept her indifferent eyebrows, hooked her lips, and said with a smile: "It's rare for Concubine Xian to care about me, but it's unusual. ”

"Don't get me wrong, the emperor, there's nothing." Ruoyun was stunned for a moment, and explained with a smile.

The meaning of her words was obviously to let him rest more and come to the palace less often, but how did it turn into concern in his mouth?

She lamented many times in her heart, wishing that he would leave early, but Rong Jinhuan obviously had no intention of raising her feet, and still leaned on the table and looked at her and smiled, the edges and corners of her face were soft and distinct, and her phoenix eyes flashed from time to time, making her back break out in a cold sweat. It's better to turn your head to look elsewhere and distract yourself.

"It seems that my virtuous concubine hates me so much?" Rong Jinhuan saw that she was unwilling. I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows and asked, but before she could answer, I said, "Don't get distracted, I have news for you." ”

Seeing that he was suddenly sitting upright, and reached out to straighten out the folds of his cuffs, Ruoyun suddenly became nervous, and straightened his back: "Your Majesty, please speak." "I can't help but go up and down. What if he was talking about Cheng Qingxuan? Or the matter of Yu Baize?

Rong Jinhuan's eyebrows were furrowed, his face was solemn, and he looked her up and down again and again. Cai said: "What you said last time, restoring vegetation and using water to nourish water, I mentioned it to the Ministry of Industry. ”

When Ruoyun heard this, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. was immediately whetted by his words. Hurriedly said: "Didn't the emperor say...... What you want was not written by a concubine? He also burned all the paper she had written all night in front of her.

Rong Jinhuan's brows suddenly stretched, smiled slyly, and said, "Although what you wrote is correct, how can I not know the big and small things?" However, this proposal is innovative, as long as it is beneficial to the country and the people, I am willing to try it, not to mention the hard work of war. In the event of another disaster, several important ministers in the DPRK and China can temporarily turn hostility into friendship. It's also a good idea. ”

"That's how the emperor mentioned?" Ruoyun was very surprised, she just wrote it roughly, and he just read it hastily, and actually put this method on the agenda.

Rong Jinhuan looked at her so surprised, his face was strange, and said: "I handed it over to the Ministry of Industry to draft, and at the same time sent someone to investigate the hydrology, and the Ministry of Household cut the expenses for repairing the palace, and diverted it to the improvement of Xuanzhou, Xuanzhou is backed by the southern foot of Yaohua Mountain, the terrain is flat and easy to implement, and the Xuanzhou Thorn History is also a good official loyal to the imperial court. Could it be that I have to make an excerpt? ”

Listening to him say it in an orderly manner, Ruoyun's eyes widened, Rong Jinhuan could be implemented so easily, and what she wrote could not be started, seeing his confident, smiling and determined look, but he was a little afraid to guess: "Could it be ...... Could it be that King Huai agreed? ”

Seeing her so worried, Rong Jinhuan showed a look of approval and helplessness, snorted lightly, and said, "He not only agreed, but also put it into practice immediately, and immediately approved the provisions to measure." It's a pity that he has difficulty moving, and Cheng Qingsu took over the matter of going to Xuanzhou. It seems that my virtuous concubine has really helped me. ”

She was pleasantly surprised, she really couldn't believe that the smiling Huai Xuanmo and the rigid Cheng Qingsu would follow their own ideas, but when she touched Rong Jinhuan's teasing gaze, she froze on her face with joy and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine/palace is in politics, the crime deserves death, please punish the emperor." With that, he slid down and fell to his knees.

"If you strike so preemptively, I won't dare to treat you?" Rong Jinhuan's face suddenly darkened, and then he sighed helplessly, leaned over to help her up, and saw her rare playful smile, and couldn't help frowning: "You are so anxious to let me punish the crime, believe it or not, I will immediately put you in the cold palace?" You don't have to guard against me coming to your palace. ”

Ruoyun listened to his scare, looked at him angrily glaring but smiled, and finally knew that he said this on purpose, looking at his heroic nose bridge and slightly upturned eyes, he was in a trance, and a bitterness surged in his heart: looking at this face, Ruoyun seemed to see Rong Yixuan with a similar face, a man in the emperor's family, often pleased, but he could give up immediately. If he wasn't the emperor, if she wasn't the concubine she imprisoned, if he didn't want to kill her in the first place, she wouldn't have complained about him, if she had met in the water, if he hadn't set up a situation, maybe she would have at least had a pleasant conversation with him, and not be as guarded everywhere as she is now.

She couldn't help breaking free of his big hand, took a step back, and said coldly: "The emperor's confidant is not a concubine, nor will it be a concubine, and the concubine is afraid that sooner or later she will go to the cold palace." ”

"You-" Rong Jinhuan sighed violently, was fisted by her broken hands, stared at her indifferent face, looked at her eyes suddenly a little sad, and at the end, sighed heavily, and said, "Then you tell me, what is in your heart?" ”

Ruoyun touched his gaze, couldn't help but be stunned, and only came back to his senses when he asked, looking around at no one, Changde and the others must be very far away, so they said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, what the concubine thinks in her heart is a big thing, so that the concubine has been sleeping and eating since yesterday, tossing and turning." ”

"Say!" Rong Jinhuan lost his patience, but this time he was really angry, and sat down as heavily as when he came.

Ruoyun pursed her lips and replied cautiously: "Your Majesty, the concubine passed by the imperial garden yesterday and heard the palace people mention it......" She lowered her voice and said, "The grain and salary transported to the south by the household department have been robbed. ”

Rong Jinhuan's pupils suddenly closed, his phoenix eyes narrowed, and he said, "What does Concubine Xian think?" ”

Hearing his voice suddenly became cold and dangerous, Ruoyun was up and down in her heart, speculating in vain that she was really guilty, but she still had the courage to meet his scrutiny and said, "Back to the emperor, the concubines don't know the emperor, do you already have a notebook in hand?" ”

Rong Jinhuan's gaze gradually turned cold, and he nodded slowly: "Yes, I only got the book this morning, the number reported by Gu Qing is not much, it is only half a little, Lord Hu is worried that the bandits will infested and disrupt his livelihood, and I think Concubine Xian has already noticed something strange." ”

"The Qingping Sect in various places is in trouble, and I am afraid that the south is uneasy." She was already trembling a little when she opened her mouth, she knew that the tribes in southern Xinjiang were not easy to control, if the Qingping Sect intervened, she didn't know that Xia Zhuyue would be able to suppress it this time.

Rong Jinhuan stared at her for a long time, and when he saw that she was not moving at all and looked determined, he said, "Go on." ”

"The imperial court transports grain by land and water, and the more the grain is transported on the road to remote places, the more they will travel in groups, and they will not follow one another, the loss that Lord Gu said is not serious, and it stands to reason that there is no luck in the infestation of bandits." Ruoyun took a breath and said loudly, "The concubine thinks that someone is interceding at the bottom, and she undercounted a few times when she counted and submitted the report. ”

"Who do you think it is?" Rong Jinhuan looked as usual, just waiting for her to say.

Ruoyun smiled lightly, knowing that he knew what he knew, so he said: "Whoever is calm in the court is very likely." As for the matter of intercession, it should not be for the sake of Lord Gu, but for fear that the emperor will find out, and the amount of grain transported is not right. ”

"I think so, too." Rong Jinhuan finally stopped letting her speak alone, but sighed heavily, "Hu Bowen's Ministry of Etiquette is not in deficit for a day or two, although he is not too greedy, but he can't plug the loopholes of the lavish sacrifice when the first emperor was in power, and it just so happens that Xia Zhuyue has no time to manage a bad account in the household department, and he thinks of making some small ideas from transporting grain, Gu Qing has only been in office for a few years, and it is inconvenient to impeach him clearly." ”

Ruoyun was relieved when she heard him say this: "The emperor must have already taken measures, so the concubines didn't mention this stubble, and the concubines were only worried. ”

Rong Jinhuan's eyes lit up slightly: "Who are you listening to?" ”

"Hu Jieyu." Ruoyun felt that it was inappropriate before she spoke, and hurriedly added, "It's just that I met in the imperial garden in the afternoon, and I heard her complain a few words when I was bored." ”

Although Hu Shu'er made her angry, it was better not to be too loud at this juncture, Rong Jinhuan made it clear that she would not move Lord Hu for the time being, so she naturally would not ask Hu Shu'er about her crimes, but the people around her were about to be implicated like the previous thorough investigation of the palace, I don't know how many people want to sit together, no matter how wronged she is, she can only swallow it now.

And compared with Hu Shu'er, it is really dangerous to have a gap in this palace and allow people to enter and exit to report the news.

"Hearing Concubine Xian say this, I will think that Concubine Xian is competing for favor." Rong Jinhuan looked at her playfully, and reached out to turn the jade wrench in his hand as usual, but he pinched it empty, so he had to shake his hands.

"The concubine didn't say that the suspicious person was Hu Jieyu, it was the emperor himself who said, you and I are in the same boat, the emperor is safe and sound, and the concubine is also safe and sound, if the emperor doesn't want to listen, he won't ask." Ruoyun said, thinking that he had guessed seven or eight points in his heart, so he had time to make fun of her.

"So?" Rong Jinhuan saw that she was becoming more and more determined, and asked with a wry smile.

"So if Hu Jieyu is a suspicious person in the palace, she will never say anything, although the family affairs are spread so quickly, I think there are other channels besides the guards and night patrol palace people, and it is inconvenient to startle the snake at the moment, so I have to sit and watch the changes." Ruoyun thought about it, he could only draw such a conclusion, anyway, he had his own opinions, and he knew it in his heart.

Rong Jinhuan nodded, and slowly stretched out his hand to her, Ruoyun was startled, but saw that he only twisted his sideburns and sighed heavily. (To be continued......)
