Chapter Twenty-Nine: A Thousand Miles to the Old Man 8
His Royal Highness the King of Jin's excitement of getting a treasure is really too loud and ready to come out, and everyone in front of the door except Xie Yao was stunned for a while.
This is His Royal Highness the King of Jin?
No one moved, no one spoke, even the horses were very well-behaved, and the gate of the Jin Wang's Mansion was as quiet as if no one was there.
The sudden hug made Bai Jinyu stunned, and he was also a little puzzled. Despite this, it did not prevent her from feeling Feng Chen's inner agitation at the moment.
First, as Su Lihua, and second, because he could feel his mood, Bai Jinyu did not push Fengchen away.
Bai Jinyu's face was lightly pressed against Feng Chen's shoulder, his clothes were stained with the clarity of the night, and his breath was full of this comfortable coolness. The ups and downs in Feng Chen's chest were the opposite of the temperature of this cold placket.
In a moment, Feng Chen calmed down, held Bai Jinyu's shoulders and pushed her away a little, as if they were reunited after a long absence, his eyes wandering over her face.
At the same time, Bai Jinyu also saw the stain he left on Feng Chen's shoulder.
On the silver silk satin, the light black gray is extremely incommensurate with Fengchen's elegance. She hurriedly reached out and dusted it, raised her head and apologized with embarrassed eyes.
Feng Chen stared at Bai Jinyu, his eyes were very concerned, looking at it, he raised his hand, and his fingertips scraped her side cheek. Bai Jinyu looked sideways, only to see a pinch of powdery blood scabs between his fingers together.
Bai Jinyu was shocked, his eyes wandering away.
For a long time, but without any questioning, she touched her face in a daze, scraped the dry knots on her face with her nails, and scraped the bloody scabs on her hand.
She was really embarrassed at this time, and she had no way to avoid it, so she had to explain a little honestly: "This ...... Your Highness, rest assured, this is not my blood. Hmmm......"
"I didn't ask anything." Fengchen said.
Bai Jinyu looked up, only to see Feng Chen looking at her calmly, closing his eyes to confirm.
Bai Jinyu suddenly felt relieved, as if he had been let go, and he had the experience of the rest of his life after the catastrophe. But at the same time, it seems to be more guilty.
"Let's go inside." Feng Chen said softly.
"Okay." Bai Jinyu smiled at him and skipped a lot of words.
Bai Jinyu was glad in her heart, Feng Chen and Su Lihua were both extremely transparent people, and the tacit understanding between the two of them that left room for each other really allowed them to escape.
Seeing that Fengchen and Bai Jinyu had returned to normal, Xie Yao, Zhang Meng and the others seemed to suddenly relax. Xie Yao beckoned, and the two guards brought down several stacks of tall books and papers from the car.
Feng Chen instructed them to move their things into the study, and Bai Jinyu couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that His Highness still wants to see these things tonight?" ”
Feng Chen said: "Hmm." ”
Bai Jinyu watched everyone walk away, and said in a low voice: "What kind of handle did Wang Chong catch on others, and he was willing to buy the question?" ”
Feng Chen looked at her.
Bai Jinyu hurriedly said: "Oh, I understand, I understand, His Highness is not convenient to tell outsiders about confidential matters, don't say it!" ”
Feng Chen said: "Withhold the tribute." ”
Bai Jinyu was stunned, not because of Wang Chong's crime, but because she was completely prepared for Feng Chen not to tell her, but Feng Chen opened her mouth.
She coughed and said strangely: "No, the tributes from all over the country will be registered, how can he deduct it?" ”
Feng Chen said: "My dynasty is vast, and some distant counties often prepare double tributes at the beginning of departure in order to prevent damage to the tributes during transportation. ”
Bai Jinyu understood it at one point, and immediately understood: "Oh! I understand, the household department is in charge of the tribute, so once these tributes are not damaged, then this extra part will be swallowed by Wang Chong. ”
Feng Chen nodded.
Bai Jinyu was shocked, it was really an eye-opener, and he was deeply moved by the number of fancys in this world.
"I still need to sort out the accounts before I can show them to the saint." Fengchen said.
Hearing this, Bai Jinyu opened his mouth to persuade him to do it again tomorrow, but when he thought that this was not an ordinary trivial matter, he held back and did not say anything.
Back in the room, Bai Jinyu had just changed his clothes when he heard two clicks on the door. She asked and stepped forward to open the door, and saw that it was Xie Yao who came over with some supper.
A cup of bird's nest soup and a few fancy dim sums are sweet, which is very suitable for Bai Jinyu's appetite. Xie Yao stood beside her and watched her eat a few plates cleanly.
Bai Jinyu wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and concluded: "The chef of the Jin Palace's mansion is really excellent, everything is so delicious, but these are all desserts, I remember that His Royal Highness doesn't eat sweets much, and it is estimated that it is not very suitable for his appetite." ”
Xie Yao listened, was silent for a while, and said, "Your Highness doesn't have a supper. ”
Bai Jinyu was stunned and said, "Why?" This is your negligence, it is so late, even if Your Highness has had dinner, you should be hungry at this hour! ”
Bai Jinyu looked at Xie Yao with some reproach, but saw that he tucked the corners of his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.
His appearance made Bai Jinyu curious, she simply held her head with one hand, stared at Xie Yao and waited for him to say something.
Under her attentive posture, Xie Yao pondered for a while and said, "Your Highness never uses supper. ”
"Oh." Bai Jinyu nodded, this is also possible. At the same time, she was bored by this answer, and thought it was a terrible reason!
"Actually," Xie Yao wanted to say something with a little determination, but he only said two words and hesitated.
Bai Jinyu, who had just unloaded his head, was fished up by him again, waited for him with his chin on his back, and asked, "Actually, what?" ”
Xie Yao's expression froze, as if what he was about to say made him struggle very much.
"Huh?" Bai Jinyu waited, if it was another person, she would have pinched his neck and forced him, but now that the other party is Xie Yao, she really can't do anything about Xie Yao. First, people's ordinary style is that they don't talk much, and secondly, with the huge disparity between her and his kung fu now, she can't pinch Xie Yao.
After a long time, Xie Yao finally made up his mind and said, "Your Highness doesn't need dinner. ”
In just a few words, Bai Jinyu was curious, and just wanted to ask, Xie Yao added: "Did you forget?" ”
Ouch, yes, she's Su Lihua, she can't be so surprised.
After sorting out his emotions, Bai Jinyu smiled jerkily: "Oh, I've been back to Shangshu Mansion for too long, and I almost forgot about it, it's really ......"
"Your Highness hasn't had dinner for three or four years." Xie Yao seemed to be talking to himself.
"Huh?" Bai Jinyu was so shocked that he groaned softly, he didn't eat dinner for three or four years?! She was already a little frightened by the message.
"That, that...... Bai Jinyu "that" for a long time, and he was incoherent. Suddenly, she remembered that Huang Gu had told her that Feng Chen had made friends with several Taoist priests in the past few years, so she asked curiously: "Could it be that this is also a Taoist practice method similar to Bigu?" ”
Xie Yao leaned over and picked up the dishes and chopsticks that Bai Jinyu had just used, and said bluntly: "Your Highness is not thinking about tea and rice. ”
"Don't think about tea? Why didn't he think about tea and rice? The cook in the house is so good. Bai Jinyu sat and looked at Xie Yao collecting things in an orderly manner, his eyes chasing him, but Xie Yao just didn't look at her.
At the end, Xie Yao said: "Niangniang doesn't know, how can Weichen know?" His face was so cold that it seemed to freeze when he poured water.
"You ......" Bai Jinyu choked. It's really strange, she obviously knows that Xie Yao has always spoken like this to people, but at this moment, she feels like she was choked by him.
I didn't eat dinner for three or four years, and I didn't eat supper when I stayed up late...... Bai Jinyu seems to understand a little why Feng Chen hasn't lost a lot of weight in a few years, it's really incredible!
She suddenly thought of a picture, that day in the palace for supper, Yan Luo had been stunned when he cleaned up Feng Chen's dishes.
Now she finally understands why she is stagnant, just because Fengchen ate a piece of jujube paste cake that night!
"Mother really wants to know why?" Xie Yao's voice sounded, and Bai Jinyu realized that he hadn't left yet.
She nodded reasonably: "I want to know!" ”
Xie Yao looked at Bai Jinyu and said, "Why didn't Niangniang ask His Highness herself?" With that, he bowed humbly, but in fact withdrew with his things without sincerity.
Hey!
This Xie Yao, this last look, is it a provocation?!
How did she look like she didn't dare to ask!
Cut, Bai Jinyu sneered, what a big deal this is, what is there to dare not!
Thinking about it, Bai Jinyu stood up and walked straight out of the door.
In the middle of the night, the Jin Palace's mansion is quiet and silent, and it also seems more spacious and wide, the flowers and trees are hidden in the night, and the staggered corridors are hung with lanterns of uniform shape, which looks similar everywhere in the dark night.
Bai Jinyu walked around and around the more and more wrong, she stopped, she scratched her scalp, a little speechless, but she still had to accept the fact that she was lost.
Standing in the corridor to assess the situation, Bai Jinyu looked back and forth, left and right, and finally began to sulk in a depressed manner.
Why was she so unprovoked, and ran out after being provoked by Xie Yao?
Isn't it good for people to skip dinner for three or four years, so don't you need her to worry about it?
Besides, even if you ask, why do you have to ask now, you can ask tomorrow!
Well, in the middle of the night, not only can she not find Fengchen's study now, but she can't even go back to Su Lihua's bedroom.
After sitting alone for a long time, Bai Jinyu felt a little stunned, so he stood up and threw a stone at random to determine the direction. She thought that it would be a big deal to go around the palace and spend some time, so she could always find Su Lihua's house.
After passing through a few arches, it didn't take much time for Bai Jinyu to find a room with lights on. Although it was still a little far away, she was also overjoyed, and immediately quickened two steps towards the light.
When she arrived, she found that it was a completely unfamiliar courtyard, and Bai Jinyu confirmed that she had never been to this place for a few days. However, the palace was too big, and it was not uncommon for her to have a few places she hadn't visited.
Bai Jinyu doesn't care if she thinks about it, as long as it's on, it means that there are people, and if she goes in, she can call someone to get up and send her back to the house!
So she raised her hand and knocked on the door, but after several knocks, no one answered. She was a little confused, and with a little force, the door was gently pushed open, but it was not actually locked from the inside.
As soon as the door opened, there was a statue-sized statue of Guanyin in the middle, solemn and kind. The air still smelled of incense, and the two rows of lamps and candles on the left and right illuminated the room brightly.
"It turned out to be a Buddhist hall." Bai Jinyu was worried.
She stepped through the door, her gaze sweeping roughly into the depths, and she saw no one. The solemn Buddha statue was in front, Bai Jinyu didn't care about anything else, knelt down on the futon and kowtowed three times seriously.
When she stood up, she took a good look at the Buddhist hall.
Although this Buddha hall is not big, but a bright, righteous people, the Manbu prayer flag statues are very exquisitely built, and the flowers and fruits on the platform are also brightly colored, which shows that the people who believe in it are indeed taking care of it with good intentions.
Before Huang Gu said that Su Lihua had been worshipping Buddha for many years, Bai Jinyu intuitively felt that this Buddhist hall should be the place where Su Lihua usually worships Buddha.
When she came to Chang'an this time, Bai Jinyu always felt as if she had been getting to know the brand-new Su Lihua. For example, collecting jewelry, furniture, tailoring clothes, and worshipping the Buddha were all things she didn't know before. This made her feel that her impression of Su Lihua was very vague, she didn't know who she was and what she thought before, and now she can't figure it out.
Bai Jinyu turned his steps and looked around the three walls to look at the shrines placed on the side altar one by one, Maitreya Buddha, Amitabha Buddha, Jizo Bodhisattva, Scholar Shuri Bodhisattva, the Four Great Vajras, and the Eighteen Arhats......
There are all the gods and Buddhas in charge of each division, and she was about to say that Su Lihua really asked for a lot, when suddenly, a small wooden sign came into Bai Jinyu's eyes.
"The Spirit of Princess Zhao Guoyu of the Aifei West"
!!!
Bai Jinyu was shocked! Cardiac arrest, the whole body stiffens and stiffs!
Yuga!!
Bai Jinyu's eyes seemed to explode.
She looked at the spiritual position in a daze, and her heart seemed to be pressed by a boulder, and she was directly flattened at the end, and she couldn't breathe!
If you ask Bai Jinyu who she is most sorry for in this world, then she must be the first to say Yuhe!
Seven years ago, in the vigorous election of Xizhao's son-in-law, if she hadn't pretended to be Wenyan and intervened, Yuhe might really be able to find a husband of her choice!
Perhaps, in the end, the husband is still Fengchen, but he will not marry in that mood!
Sometimes I don't know if it's a joke in the world, who would have thought that the good men in the world would let her choose whether she would choose or not, but Fang Xin mistakenly fell in love with her, a woman who dressed as a man?
For this matter, she has always regretted it, but Yuhe said: "If you pay wrongly, you pay by mistake, and you can't change who you like." ”
"You know what? How fortunate I am to marry Fengchen, because here, I am reunited with you again! ”
"I don't know how happy I am to see you every day, to eat with you, to talk and do some ordinary things!"
"I, you, Fengchen, the three of us will have a good life in this life, and we won't take him in the next life, only the two of us!"
"I am the concubine who has taken a big advantage, then the first child of our family will be given to you in the next life, so that you can inherit the throne of Fengchen."
……
Jiaojiaoying's words are still in her ears, but now things are wrong, there is no Yuhe here, only her tablet remains!!
Bai Jinyu clenched his fists tightly, angry, hateful and desperate, trembling uncontrollably, unable to make a sound, let alone crying.
This tablet is a dead thing, how can it replace the living Yuhe?!
She couldn't take it.
"Do you really not remember what happened seven years ago?" Suddenly, a voice slowly floated behind him.
Bai Jinyu didn't turn his head.
Feng Chen had stepped forward and stood side by side with her.
He stared silently at Yuga's tablet for a long time.
"You and I see what Yuga does to you. You," Feng Chen turned his face, looked directly at Bai Jinyu, and said word by word: "The last thing you shouldn't do is to forget everything about Xizhao." ”
Xi Zhao, Bai Jinyu was thoughtful, and there was a group portrait in his mind, which became clearer and clearer.
Seven years ago, it was the year of high spirits and fresh clothes.
