Chapter 68 │ Planning
In the Mingxuan Hall, the smell of agarwood incense slowly diffused, and Jiang Mobai took it out from the bookcase! A folding fan slowly opened, it was a rosewood folding fan inlaid with ivory, inside was a good sprinkled gold fan, the green mountains and green water on it, a pastoral style, there was an old cow bowing his head to drink water by the gurgling stream, in the grass house next to the stream, there was a man in white sitting, holding a teacup, quietly looking at the beauty playing in the water by the stream.
The beauty has a smart smile, a light posture, and a smile is not like the Su Yan'er she saw today, the beauty of Yanyulou, cold and noble, and Su Yan'er on the painting, life seems to be alive.
"She has always longed for such a place," Jiang Mobai said softly, looked at the folding fan and smiled softly, "The red wall of the high-rise building does not belong to her, and she never likes it, I rarely see her laugh, this painting is once when she took her to the mountain behind the Dragon Temple, that day the lotus was full of ponds, she met with a seven or eight-year-old girl and began to play in the water, that was the first time I saw her smile like that......"
"If you want to take her away, it must not be a short time," Jiang Qingluo sighed, "Since I was a child, my father has always been very fond of us because of the death of my mother, and I am even more partial to you, you have everything, the emperor is rich and rich, and the beauty is like a cloud, but even so, you are not the real you in the end." ”
Jiang Mobai lowered his head and said nothing, rubbed his eyebrows, and said slowly: "In the eyes of outsiders, even if I don't have the sainthood of my father and ancestors, they will believe that I can keep this country, because they can only choose to believe it like this, in fact, you all know, I don't like these, I envy the fourth brother, he is carefree, a rich and noble prince, and he is accompanied by poetry, wine, and tea all day long......"
"The third brother has a gap with us, in fact, in the heart of the royal brother, the most suitable person for this throne is the second brother."
Jiang Qingluo glanced at Jiang Mobai, saw him nodding, and whispered: "But tell him directly, he will not agree, and the courtiers don't care whether he is suitable or not, first of all, they will propose such an unruly and unorthodox system, which is a headache to think about." ”
Jiang Qingluo was silent, this kind of thing, looking at the future generations, I am afraid that it will be difficult to have a few times, besides, most of the emperors of Beiling are the eldest sons who succeeded to the throne smoothly after being crowned princes, there are few brothers killing each other, and there is no such thing as Zen giving up the throne, if it is compulsory, I am afraid that there will be no peace inside and outside the court.
In the afternoon, seeing that there was still no food in Mingxuantang, Kang Lu looked at it a little anxiously, and then looked at Wen Yu on the opposite side and asked, "Miss Wen Yu, you said that the lunch hour is almost over, do you want to pass the meal?" I'm afraid I'm hungry inside. ”
Wen Yu shook her head and said: "The emperor didn't pass it on, it is estimated that there is something agreed with the eldest princess inside, and it is not good for us to go in, or wait a little longer." ”
Kang Lu didn't dare to rush in, but from a distance, he saw Situ Shuiyue Yingying coming over and smiled at Kang Lu: "Father-in-law Kang, this palace came to ask the emperor to say goodbye, the small kitchen stewed a good rock sugar deer antler soup today, presumably the emperor also likes it." ”
Kang Lu was a little embarrassed: "The moon beauty is blessed, and the emperor will definitely know the moon beauty's intentions, but at this time, the emperor and the eldest princess are discussing things together, and it is inconvenient to see people." ”
Situ Shuiyue glanced at Wen Yu and said: "I see, the eldest princess has not returned to the palace for a long time, I am afraid that she has a lot to say to the emperor, but the palace has not seen the emperor for a long time, so she will go in and ask for peace and leave, and it will not delay things." ”
Kang Lu and Wen Yu were a little embarrassed, but they heard a question inside: "Who is outside?" ”
Kang Lu replied: "Back to the emperor, it's the beauty of the moon, who came to greet you." ”
Inside the house, Jiang Mobai sighed speechlessly, and said angrily: "Let her go back, I really don't have time to see her." ”
Situ Shuiyue's face was red and blue for a while when she heard it outside, and after lowering her head and handing the things to Kang Lu, she left with tears in her eyes, and Wen Yu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes when she saw her leave.
Picking up the crack in the door and watching Situ Shuiyue leave quietly, Jiang Mobai retreated with a sigh of relief, Jiang Qingluo looked at him and smiled: "You are a dignified son, but you are also afraid of a woman." ”
Jiang Mobai took a sip of tea and said: "I tell you, I'd rather offend an old minister, at least you can cultivate the next one, but if you can't get along with a woman, it's a lifetime thing, it's terrible." ”
Jiang Qingluo just wanted to laugh, Jiang Mobai glanced at her, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and said to Jiang Qingluo: "In this way, this has advantages and disadvantages, although women are troublesome, but not all women are troublesome, I think, you are good, otherwise let's have a bright plank road and a dark Chen Cang?" ”
Jiang Qingluo was confused, which plank road to repair? Which bin is dark?
Jiang Mobai's sinister smile whispered a few words in Jiang Qingluo's ear, Jiang Qingluo's face immediately turned white in fright, and he said in a startle: "Are you sure?" In case anyone hears the rumors, you can't leave if you want to, besides, according to the news from the Dark Guard Court, there are still some remnants of the former dynasty hidden among the courtiers, and they have been trying to find treasures and former dynasty talismans, and take the opportunity to restore the country. ”
"I know, so you can't take any chances, you have to be fully prepared, otherwise it won't go wrong."
Jiang Mobai pondered, gently tapped the corner of the table with the folding fan in his hand, and frowned for a while: "I seem to be a little hungry." ”
Jiang Qingluo immediately said: "Then let's pass the meal quickly!" ”
“…………”
At dusk, Jiang Qingluo came out of Mingxuantang, looking at the bright and gorgeous sunset on the horizon, he stopped to look at it for a while, but suddenly heard footsteps behind him, and before he saw anyone, he first smelled a fragrance of fat powder, which was strong, and it must be Situ Shuiyue without guessing, Jiang Qingluo was frightened and immediately pulled Wen Yu to hide behind the rockery on the side.
Sure enough, it was not a big deal, and Situ Shuiyue's voice sounded and said: "You see that the eldest princess returned to the palace on the first day today, and she gave the palace a dismount, and today she must have remembered my grudge and deliberately did not let the emperor see me!" ”
Mei'er, the palace maid on the side, immediately said: "Beauty, you dissipate your anger, the emperor is such a sister, naturally pampered, and now that she has finally returned to the palace, she will naturally rely on it more, don't go to your heart." ”
"That's not going to work!" Situ Shuiyue snorted coldly, "The emperor did not come to the harem, after entering the palace for three years, he could only see people when he was in the palace on Chinese New Year's Eve, if it wasn't for the palace from time to time, where could the emperor remember, you see, this harem has become a cold palace, and now the eldest princess returns to the palace to dominate the emperor, and she won't let the palace see it, how good can it be in the future." ”
Mei'er was about to speak, when she heard a sneer behind her: "What Yue Meiren said is really interesting, why, do you think that you are dangling in front of the emperor all the time, and the emperor will make an exception to invite you to sleep?" I don't look at what I do, I have a small family spirit! ”
