Chapter 87: Revisiting the National Capital

A drizzle fell, and the royal driver quickly returned to the capital.

Qin Yuanxi accompanied him back to Ning Palace to be punished.

The road is full of ups and downs, with endless aftertaste, but it is bland.

Going south, what she finally left to the people of Pingtou was the three stone bridges to be built in Ji County.

Stone Bridge, named Xi.

……

The temperature in the capital is much lower than in Xiangzhou, and the first snow has fallen a few days ago.

Yunxi Palace was as cold and brilliant as ever, Qin Yuanxi went straight back to the main hall, and when he saw the old love and old things, he was inevitably full of emotion.

This autumn hunting trip, ups and downs, less than a month, but suddenly half a year apart.

Even if the county lord is not there, the palace people do not dare to neglect trivial matters, as early as before Qin Yuanxi returned to the palace, a warm carbon fire had already been built in the palace.

But after a while, there were a few voices of women talking outside.

Because he was in a bad mood because he was punished, Qin Yuanxi entered the door to tell the palace people to thank the guests, and it is estimated that the visitors have not entered the door at this time.

The crisp and pleasant sound did not stop for a long time, which made her unhappy, and her face became more and more irritable.

"Go and see who it is, persuade me to leave, the palace is closed for half a month, except for my grandmother, grandfather and father, princess, and concubine." Qin Yuanxi drove towards Ziyun.

In fact, the grounding is only a restriction of one's own freedom, and if there is no special explanation, it is okay for others to want to come to the door.

Emperor Yuanqing had only said that Qin Yuanxi had been grounded in Yunxi Palace for reflection, and did not explicitly prohibit others from coming.

Besides, she had just returned to the palace safely, and if she was greeted by outsiders, the punishment could be postponed for two days.

At this time, Qin Yuanxi's decision to refuse visitors was not like a grounding, but like a retreat.

It's not that she's playing tricks, it's just that she's afraid that her aunt and grandmother will annoy her these days.

Qin Yuanxi, who hated clearly, made up his mind to have a cold war.

Ziyun listened to such a decisive order, thinking that the master was not in a calm mood for a while, and he was a little hesitant in his movements.

She cautiously approached, and couldn't help but whisper tentatively, "Master, maybe it is a few other county lords who have come to greet your ......."

Qin Yuanxi slapped the table impatiently, "It doesn't matter who she is, she can't see her, block it outside, lock the palace door!" ”

Ziyun couldn't, so she had to nod, "...... The slave knows,"

He raised his feet and wanted to go out, but Qin Yuanxi hurriedly added, "Especially King Ning, if you come and lock the lock, you can go and watch the door yourself." In the future, don't let her enter the palace without my instructions. ”

What the master said was easier than anything else, but Ziyun almost fell when she heard this.

Turning his head to reveal a crying face, "Master, where do the slaves dare to stop King Ning?" Besides, if His Royal Highness King Ning wants to come in, the slaves and maids will not be able to stop him. ”

Qin Yuanxi's face turned cold, and he said solemnly, "If you can't stop it, you have to stop it, the county lord doesn't want to see you anymore, Ziyun, if you dare to disobey, go to the room to burn the fire." ”

It is impossible to expect King Ning not to come to Yunxi Palace for most of the month, but to say that Ziyun can stop King Ning from entering the door by herself, that is, it is a salted fish crossing the dragon gate.

Knowing the situation she was about to encounter, Ziyun's heart was even more sad, so she had to leave in a hurry.

Soon, she finished explaining what had happened and had entered the house.

"Master, it's the third and fourth county lords who have come to visit you,...... Already gone,"

It's not been a day or two since Qin Lingyue has been pestering her fourth sister all day, and Qin Yuanxi is not only unhappy in her heart, but also out of sight and out of mind.

At this moment, she was writing in front of the table, and she only moved her lips slightly, "It's good to open it,"

Absentmindedly thinking about how to spend most of the boring time, he suddenly remembered something.

Nothing else, it was my grandmother and her mention of the abdication at the end of the year.

After thinking about it for a long time, he still sighed slightly, "Ziyun, you better go and call the king of the five counties first,"

“… Be. ”

Ziyun agreed softly, and couldn't help but be a little strange about the reason why the master suddenly called his fifth brother to narrate.

This difference is really unexpected, but it is also curiosity that cannot be answered.

……

Less engraved

The crimson door of Yunxi Palace slowly opened, and then closed immediately.

The white twilight was scattered in the depths of the palace walls, the bluestone slabs were dry and traceless, and the front of the door was as cold as ever.

In the courtyard wall, only the dead wood and ginkgo stand alone.

"Big sister!" Qin Sui hurriedly entered the door and shouted loudly.

Looking up, Ziyun followed closely behind, but it was only a small step.

"Eldest sister, I heard that you were punished for doing something wrong, and I just learned about it, so you have to look away."

"I know." Qin Yuanxi put down his pen, turned his head and smiled lightly, "I called you here at this time, I have something to tell you." ”

"yes, what's the urgency? I've heard that my eldest sister just closed the door. ”

Qin Sui's face showed a different color, and he stood on the side, the curiosity on his face deepened.

Qin Yuanxi glanced at Ziyun behind her, and was about to speak to order her to retreat, but instead closed her mouth.

After thinking about it for a while, he gave another order, "Ziyun, there's nothing to do with you here, you go to the door to guard first, so as not to let others break in." ”

These other people can only be King Ning now.

Zi Yun glanced at Qin Sui deeply, pursed her lips and walked out of the dormitory.

Outside the door, he stopped, turned and walked towards the window.

Leaning lightly on the windowsill, his eyes marked a layer of caution and certainty.

In the room, Qin Yuanxi pointed to the wooden chair next to the table, "Sit down first!" ”

Qin Sui moved a chair and sat down, and couldn't help but look at the empty dormitory a few times curiously, "What did the eldest sister say?" How is it so mysterious. ”

"It's an important matter related to the country," Qin Yuanxi's voice was very soft, but his exit was startled.

Ziyun outside the window suddenly raised her foot and was about to leave, but quickly stopped moving.

"Fifth brother, you may not know it, my grandmother mentioned it to me in Xiangzhou, and my grandmother ...... her" Qin Yuanxi deliberately sold a pass to make his face more serious.

"Grandmother her, abdicate at the end of the year......"

"What?"

Qin Sui exclaimed in astonishment, and when he saw the eldest sister's serious tone, he hurriedly said, "Grandmother, she is in such good health, how can she abdicate in a hurry?" But what happened to the court? ”

"That's not it, I guess my grandmother should have been an empress for thirty years, and she wants to abdicate when she is tired."

couldn't understand his grandmother's thoughts, Qin Yuanxi was always a little empty.

She casually explained, "Actually, this is also good, lest those officials do not do their jobs all day long and only know how to criticize my grandmother's dictatorship of women." ”

There was silence inside and outside the house for a long time.

As soon as Qin Sui raised his head, he looked at Qin Yuanxi's scrutinizing gaze with a helpless wry smile, "I said, eldest sister, don't you care who your father will appoint as the crown prince at that time?" ”

Qin Yuanxi affirmed the understanding of the fifth brother, and now he no longer hides his thoughts about getting up and rising.

"It's rare that the fifth brother understands your sister so well, and the eldest sister doesn't hide it, today I just want you to fight for the position of the prince."

Qin Yuanxi said affirmatively, those solemn eyes were unprecedented.

The solemn command does not seem to be asking his younger brother, but rather directing a subordinate who obeys his master's words.

Qin Sui was shocked from the bottom of his heart for no reason, and he almost had to face his eldest sister and give in.
