Before this meeting, Song Yunhe had not seen Chai Yu for a year, and there was no news for half a year, in all this time, what Chai Yu had done and what had happened, Song Yunhe had not asked a word, but he could feel it.

The people she had seen around Chai Yu were now not by his side except for a Dongman, not in the huge palace, nor in Teacher Xun Zhang's class.

The normal person in power has his own team, but Song Yunhe has not seen any of them these days, she doesn't want to guess, and she doesn't want to guess the worst outcome, she firmly believes that the Chai Yu she knows is not a person who kills indiscriminately, but he also once said to her, "People born in the emperor's family are born like this." ”

If Chai Yu was a green pine on a high ridge in the past, then now the clouds and mist on the high ridge make it impossible to see the real body, and Song Yunhe can only see the tip of the tree, or the part that grows towards the sun.

Chai Yu didn't like to laugh before, but now he always looks at her and laughs, she thinks it's a heart-to-heart connection, but in fact, it's like a sunflower with the sun, he just tries to let her see him laughing.

Chai Yu is sick, this is one of the reasons why Song Yunhe changed to Yunjing, but after so many days of getting along, she didn't find the cause, maybe the thing about her Gu disaster was just a fuse, what was Chai Yu like in the past? When did Chai Yu change now, she thought that Dongman should have some clues here.

Ke Dongman lowered his head and replied calmly: "Your Majesty's Ninety-Five Dignity should be awe-inspiring. ”

"But you didn't do that to him before. Song Yunhe still remembered that in the Qin State, whether it was Dongman or Wen Suling, he had overstepped the rules, and he had never severely reprimanded them, although there might be punishments in private, but from the attitude they got along with, they could feel that the master and his subordinates were harmonious.

It's completely different from today's seriousness.

"But that was before. Your Highness, Your Majesty is now the king of a country, and he has his own way of being a king. ”

"What is the way of a king?" Song Yunhe didn't understand, Song Changzhen, who was also a monarch, was also cold, but there were loyal guards like A Ke, and courtiers like Lu Jinan who were not afraid of life and death, but what did Chai Yu have?

What did he get besides being forced to accept a throne, a ruined country?

As far as Song Yunhe's eyes could see, as far as his heart could see, Chai Yu didn't gain anything, but lost everything.

Is the emperor's unkindness the choice of the king or forced to be helpless?

Song Yunhe's understanding of Chai Yu is more trusting of the latter.

She didn't know how many subordinates Chai Yu had left behind, but there must be only a handful of people working with him right now, otherwise the situation next week would not be so difficult.

What are they asking Chai Yu for, and Chai Yu is unwilling to agree, Song Yunhe has thought about it for a long time, and has also looked through many historical books, and there is a vague answer, but she has never dared to think about it.

Chai Yu is nearly eight years older than Song Yunhe, and now he is twenty-three years old, and in this era, most of the twenty-three-year-old young people in the family have children around their knees, but Chai Yu does not say half a child, even a woman has never had half of it. Earlier, as the prince of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, he was reluctant to marry the wife and concubine of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, which was very happy for the old department.

But now that he has ascended the throne as the emperor of the Hou Zhou, and has continued the imperial order of the Chai family, he should set up a concubine, extend the heirs, and perfectly combine the interests of the forces of the old department through the relationship of in-laws.

And the current fact is that the harem in the next week is vacant, and the court is also vacant, and Chai Yu is no matter how capable she is, she can't make rice out of thin air.

Chai Yu must have done a lot of unexpected things in order to keep the agreement between them, so Dongman will be afraid of himself.

"You don't have to tell your majesty these words today. Song Yunhe figured out the answer to his conjecture, and he didn't embarrass her, let alone blame her, the relationship between the master and his subordinates in this era has always been bounded.

"Yes. ”

All the way back to the Song Mansion in silence, Song Yunhe was a little tired, and fell asleep on the table without waiting for the Lingque dish to be ready, and the Lingcia placed her upstairs, and asked Dongman to go to the palace to tell him that there might be a delay in the afternoon class.

Dongman returned to the palace with several things, Chai Yu's face was calm, and there was some anger in the majesty of the scar under his eyes, and he asked, "How many people are following you?"

"Four people, two in the city, and two more after leaving the city. Dongman replied, Song Yunhe left the house on the first day today, and there were not a few people who received the news, and the four of them were already very few. "There was one subordinate who looked a little bit like someone from the Regent's Palace. ”

"I'll send someone to investigate. Chai Yu said, threw her a piece of A-word token and said: "You let people protect the store she has seen, and the couple, if she goes out again in the future, Jiaziwei will secretly protect her." ”

Dongman took the token and knocked on the leader's order, hesitated a little, and finally knelt down and said: "Your Majesty has transferred the Jiaziwei beside you, and I beg Your Majesty to let Dongsheng come back." ”

Dongsheng was recruited back to Wengcheng two months ago, and he never came back, because it was Chai Yu who made the connection at sea let Rong Jinzhi take advantage of the loophole.

But at this moment, Chai Yu lowered his eyes, opened the fold in his hand casually, and said casually: "Can't other people around me do things without him?"

"Dongsheng and his subordinates grew up together with Gongzi, and his kindness and loyalty are different from others, if Dongsheng is by Gongzi's side, if he wants to come, Her Royal Highness Princess Qin Yuan is also relieved. Dong Man bowed his head immediately after speaking, not daring to look at the cold sword-like gaze in the hall.

Chai Yu's sharpness is only for a moment, and a sensitive person like her will find out sooner or later, "When did she ask you something?"

His Highness didn't ask anything. Dongman lowered his eyes and disappeared from today's conversation.

Chai Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was scrutinizing, as if he was considering, and finally said: "I will make up my mind, you can go back." ”

Song Yunhe woke up almost dusk, hungry and panicked, drank a big bowl of soup as if he had the strength to get up, but when he went downstairs, he found Chai Yu running to hug him and felt that he still had more strength.

Chai Yu didn't expect that she would suddenly run over and hang herself like a monkey, but her heart was happy, and she held her with both hands and said, "Why are you so enthusiastic today?"

The twin sisters next to him didn't look at it, if it weren't for the cicada pulling behind him, the spirit sparrow might have started pulling people in person.

"When you dreamed that I was hungry, you turned yourself into a peach tree, and brought a tree full of red and big peaches for me to eat. Song Yunhe replied, his legs were on the ground, but his hands were still holding him, there was sandalwood, ink, and a very faint smell of blood on his body, it should not be his own, Song Yunhe comforted himself, listening to his heartbeat, still strong and powerful, it's good.

"Did you eat it later?" Chai Yu stroked her uncombed hair, and her heart softened slightly.

"Then I woke up. Song Yunhe raised his eyes very aggrieved, and quickly became complacent, "However, the peaches you have become must be very sweet and sweet." ”

"Hmm. Chai Yu touched her head, "Tomorrow, I will let people plant a few peach trees in the yard, and there will be peaches to eat when I wake up in the future." ”

"Okay! Peach blossoms can also make wine, peaches can be used as sauce, it's gluttonous to think about. Song Yunhe swallowed.

"Girl, the peaches are still far away! Now the slave maid will freshen you up, and you will have dinner first! The slave maid's dinner is better than the peaches!" The sparrow couldn't help it beside him, so he pulled Song Yunhe and left.

Song Yunhe knew what she was annoyed about, and while following along, he turned around and winked at Chai Yu, and was dragged faster by the spirit sparrow.

The cicada didn't say anything, but just saluted and retreated, but Chai Yu stopped her and asked, "Has Her Royal Highness the princess always eaten a meal made of the spirit sparrow?

The cicada thought for a while, "Your Highness has a different sense of taste, and has always only eaten meals made by the sparrows. ”

"After you went to sea, did Your Highness have any abnormalities?"

"Except for those few days of sleep, there is nothing unusual about Your Highness. Lingcian replied, but seeing that Chai Yu's face was different, he asked, "Does Your Majesty think that my Royal Highness is different?"

Chai Yu didn't answer and asked, "How did she find the mulberry couple now?"

The cicada knew that someone would reply, so he naturally replied: "Your Highness said that it smelled something, but the slave and the others didn't smell it." ”

"Have you ever been before?"

The cicada shook its head.

"In the evening, I have a handwritten letter for you and forwards it to His Majesty Emperor Qin. ”

The cicada was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes." ”

There was not a single dish that Chai Yu liked to eat on the dinner table, all of them were suitable for Song Yunhe's bland taste, Song Yunhe laughed while eating, and the way the sparrow expressed his dissatisfaction was too naïve.

Chai Yu's noodles don't change color, and sometimes he eats a few more bites of the dishes that Song Yunhe likes to eat, and it seems to be delicious, Song Yunhe served him two bowls of soup and drank it cleanly.

"Aren't you afraid that she will drug the soup?" Song Yunhe asked him in a low voice beside him, the vicious appearance of the spirit sparrow had not changed since just now.

"With Her Royal Highness the princess here, no one will hurt me. Chai Yu's expression was calm, and his voice was not lowered, angry that Lingque wanted to splash a pot of soup on his face.

"No one will hurt Your Highness, but Your Majesty can think about whether it will hurt Your Highness? My Highness has not yet saluted you, what should I do if I hurt Your Highness's reputation by pulling and pulling? If Your Highness really likes my Highness and is engaged, why don't you marry into the palace early? Wouldn't such a sneaky person be a despised Highness of my family!"

Lingque is also very angry, the two live on the first floor together, originally because Chai Yu goes out early and returns late every day, and she can't bother Song Yunhe before she makes concessions, but looking at the development of hugging and hugging now, Lingque is really worried that her Royal Highness will lose her virginity before marriage! The royal family is no better than ordinary people, it has to be recorded in history, how can she not want her Royal Highness to have such a stigma!

The faces of everyone in the hall changed, and the cicada was busy kneeling down and said, "Your Highness is angry." ”

Song Yunhe's face was a little embarrassed, if it was really said that it should be herself, right? It was she who took the initiative to come to find someone, Song Yunhe glanced at Chai Yu, Chai Yu got up and left quietly, she beckoned the two of them: "It's okay, you guys get up." ”

The cicada got up, and the sparrow was already wiping her tears, "Sparrow, you come." ”

Song Yunhe beckoned and pulled the sparrow to sit beside him, and while helping her wipe her tears, he comforted: "I know that you are for my good." ”

The sparrow has been by her side since she woke up in this world, she is the person who has been with her the longest time, the person who worries about her most trivial matters, the person who has taken care of her food, clothing, housing and transportation, and her feelings are different from those of others.

"The slave doesn't want His Highness to follow him like this. The sparrow sobbed.

"I know. Song Yunhe nodded and patted her hand, "I also want to be with him like Jin Niang, but he is now the king of a country." ”。

"He is the king of a country and is worthy to marry His Highness. The sparrow continued to sob.

"The wife of the king of a country is the queen, and the queen is the woman who lives in that huge palace, and she has never had the opportunity to see the outside world in her life. Song Yunhe said that she was also sad, when Chai Yu was only a prince, she had checked, the princess had the opportunity to go out of the palace with the prince or be invited to other banquets, but the queen is different, only the emperor can have the opportunity to leave the palace when he travels, if he is not happy, he will not be able to go out of the palace for the rest of his life.

"It's good to be famous, but it's also good to be famous. In the past, Mama Lin said that my mother came from a family of military generals and her skills were very good, but when you look at her portrait in the south study, it is completely like two people, right?"

The sparrow nodded in understanding.

"So, it's not that he doesn't want to make a name for me, it's that he doesn't want to change himself too early. The daughter's family is not born to marry a man and live for a man, we can have our own way of life. Song Yunhe said seriously, although such a concept may not be recognized and accepted, it does not affect her own persistence.

"But what if there are rumors slandering His Highness in the future?" The sparrow has seen too much of that kind of filth, and he doesn't want his Highness to suffer at all.

"Don't worry, I have a way of making them unspeakable. Song Yunhe said with a smile, "You forgot, this palace is a person with a myth." ”

The sparrow didn't turn the corner for a while, and Song Yunhe winked at her again and again, only to remember that her memory had been modified.

"Anyway, don't worry, I won't let people have a chance to hurt me verbally, okay?"

In the end, the spirit bird could only say viciously: "Whoever dares to slander His Highness, the slave will tear his mouth apart!"

"Hmm. Song Yunhe nodded seriously to express his approval and support.

"You should be kind to him in the future. Song Yunhe took her hand and looked outside the door again, and then lowered his voice and said: "You have also seen that the future week is so poor, do you want us to share the hardships with him, can't we be happy together?"

"Hmph!" the sparrow turned his head away from looking outside, "Your Highness has wronged herself by marrying now, if you really can't help yourself in the next week, Your Highness might as well go back and find a good match." ”

Song Yunhe knocked her on the head, "Don't want your head anymore?"

Lingque Nu was reluctant, "It's a big deal to make him more food in the future, but they all have to be booked and settled together in the future." ”

"I won't miss you, be careful and be obsessed with money. Song Yunhe smiled and sent her away: "Go and help me warm up the study, I want to use it at night, go quickly." ”

The sparrow wiped away her tears and muttered in her mouth, but she obediently went out to do something. Only the cicada was still standing in the hall, Song Yunhe thought about it and asked, "Do you have something to say to me?"

Lingcian shook his head, "The slave maid already understands what His Highness thinks, and if you think about it, Your Majesty should also understand." ”

Song Yunhe finally breathed a sigh of relief, it took a lot of effort for Song Changzhen to let her go to sea to convince herself, she didn't want to live up to his intentions.

"I want to be long. Song Yunhe said that the young man who spoiled her and indulged her believed it for a long time, and he didn't know what was going on.

"Your Highness can write to Your Majesty. Lingcicada said that although they were writing letters to the princess every day, this was not the same as the princess writing a letter herself.

"Well, you can come to the study later to pick it up. Song Yunhe said that she knew that they would often return her news to the sea, but she never mentioned it, saying that she was not doing well for fear that he would worry, and that she was very sorry for him when she was doing well.

Everyone in this world is chained to a specific range by an invisible chain, only she seems to be able to go anywhere, not because of how strong she is, but because they have worked hard to give her a safer and broader future, so if she is willing to be trapped in the palace walls, it is a disappointment to all the good.

"Will being trapped in the palace walls make it impossible for you to live?" asked Chai Yu during her evening walk.

"Nor will it. Song Yunhe didn't accuse him of eavesdropping on them, they were inside the door and he was outside, and no one shied away from anyone. "It's just like the little chick that was raised in the Wen house before, fat and fat that grew up at home, and one day it will be eaten for food, but if it flies in the woods, it is vigorous and beautiful, and it will always make people stop a few times first. ”

"You don't have faith in me like that?"

Song Yunhe shook his head, "There aren't many rations at home, you don't have to feed me, I'll forage for food myself." ”

Chai Yu sighed in her heart and scratched her little nose, "Now you have also learned to speak and play sharply?"

"Doesn't this show that you are more unfathomable?" Song Yunhe raised his head, and the smile in the light intertwined with the moonlight and the fire lamp was unusually bright.

Chai Yu lowered his head and kissed the eyebrows that amazed his heart, not caring about the fragrance that spread out again, and attacked the city and plundered the land.
