Chapter 172: Round House
Accompanied by streams, in the middle is a small bridge like a half moon, next to it are two plum trees, it is winter, the red plum blossoms are just right, the fragrance is fragrant, not far from the flowing water bridge, there is a small wooden house.
"What a beautiful place." Jiang Wu looked at it and couldn't help but praise.
"Do you like it?"
Jiang Wu nodded again and again, "It's really beautiful here." "In front of the hut, there is a gurgling stream, the cold moonlight is reflected in the stream, and the fragrance of red plums blooming is fragrant, and in such a quiet place, people suddenly feel like they are in a paradise.
As soon as Jiang Wu turned his head, he saw Yun Rongjue raise his hand, fold it neatly, and pick off a plum blossom, he took off the short one, and put his hand on her sideburns.
Jiang Wu was dressed in goose yellow clothes, and her bun was simply decorated with a plain silver short hairpin, the plum blossom red on the sideburns was just right, and the cold moonlight reflected on her bright little face, she was like a person in a picture.
"Tonight, we won't go back to the palace." Yun Rongjue took her little hand, walked up the small bridge, and walked to the front of the cabin.
"Not going back to the palace? Your Majesty, this will not work. She said subconsciously.
He is now the Ninety-Five, very human, and he doesn't return to the palace at night, what a serious thing.
"Okay or not, I have the final say, I just want to stay with my sister tonight and stay in this quiet and pleasant place for a good night, relax and relax."
The two walked into the cabin.
The wooden house is not big, but it is elegant, there are two rocking chairs next to the log table, and Yun Rongjue took the little girl and glanced at it. The two sat down in rocking chairs, facing the window and seeing the plum trees and the evening moon outside.
The fresh and elegant scenery, accompanied by the fragrant peach blossom wine, the two drank together.
Jiang Wu didn't know how to drink, but this peach blossom wine was sweet and delicious, and she couldn't help but drink more.
"Every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, it's very lively, but only this year is Shu's favorite." Yun Rongjue spoke slowly.
Jiang Wu held the wine glass and looked sideways, "Doesn't the emperor like to be lively?" ”
Yun Rongjue chuckled, "I like it, but I don't like it, but I don't like it, it's nothing but fun." ”
Jiang Wu looked at Yun Rongjue's handsome face with a smile, and his heart rippled.
She knew he was thinking of the past, of the ...... Chu Yin.
Once she always thought that he was a prince who was loved by thousands of people, but later she realized what kind of blood was under those favors.
Chu Yin's various behaviors towards him are indescribable.
No one in this world can be liked by everyone, but what kind of sorrow it is if even the biological mother is disgusted with himself, and even wants to kill himself several times.
Suddenly, Yun Rongjue felt a heat on the back of his hand, he turned his eyes and saw the pair of slender white hands covering the back of his hand, "Everything bad has passed." ”
Yun Rongjue looked at the little girl's smiling face, and was in a trance for a moment-
Her arrival was an accident, and this accident was mixed with many surprises that he did not expect.
Her well-behaved, her kindness, her everything......
She seemed to be like the sun in winter, and she was caught off guard, although he was a little caught off guard, but it was beautiful.
Outside the window, snow suddenly fell, and at the moment when the snow fell, Jiang Wu opened his eyes wide and looked at the handsome face who was close at hand.
The aroma of peach blossom wine spreads and seems to be sweeter.
The snow was falling heavier and heavier outside, and the cold wind was gradually blowing, but inside the house was a warm room. Two pairs of shoes fall side by side, one is thick and tall, and the other is plain white and small.
The heavy snow didn't stop until it was close to ugly.
The man on the bed slowly woke up, and when he lowered his eyes, he saw the little girl nestled in his arms. The corners of his lips couldn't help but rise, and he slowly closed his eyes again, enjoying the moment of peace and tranquility.
When Jiang Wu woke up, he only felt a pain in his head.
"Sister early." A familiar voice sounded overhead.
She blinked, and when she lifted her eyes, it was that familiar face!
They ...... last night
Jiang Wu frowned and closed his eyes, his head flushed with pain, remembering all the things of last night.
Jiang Wuxiao's face suddenly turned red, and she realized that she was still nesting in Yun Rongjue's arms, she subconsciously moved her body to stand up, but was pushed back by the man.
"It's still early, get some more sleep."
Jiang Wu blinked, and it was difficult to recover from last night's mood for a while.
"The Emperor's ......"
"My sister still remembers last night." Yun Rongjue hugged the little girl in his arms, and his voice was slightly hoarse.
Jiang Wu's already reddened little face added a few dividends, and his little hands couldn't help but clench it.
Yun Rongjue looked down at the little girl's slightly red face, the corners of her thin lips slightly curved, and she raised her hand and pinched her face, "Sister, do you remember how I was summoned last night." ”
Jiang Wuxiu's eyebrows trembled, doubts crossed between her eyebrows, she slowly lifted her eyes, and the man's resolute and good-looking jaw crashed into her eyes, "Your Majesty?" ”
The man was silent.
"No...... Isn't it? ”
"Sister, think again."
Jiang Wu's little face furrowed, thought about it seriously, and shook his head.
Yun Rongjue's thin lips were close to her ear, and she whispered.
Jiang Wuming's eyes blinked, and he said a little, "Jue? ”
"What's the opposite of my sister?"
"Sister?
Jiang Wu looked at Yun Rongjue's eyes, opened her lips, and "Brother Jue......" She hurriedly covered her lips as if she was frightened.
"Sister call again." Yun Rongjue looked at her panicked and helpless, and couldn't help but want to tease her.
She remembered some of last night's events and some of them had no impression, how could she dare to call him so when she was so sober.
"Xiao Wu doesn't dare." She was timid.
Yun Rongjue pretended to sink his face, crossed in front of her with one hand, supported himself, looked at her, and slowly approached with thin lips, "Sister is obedient." ”
Jiang Wu blinked, looking at the face of the man who was close at hand, she bit her lip and whispered: "Jue...... Brother Jue ......" When she spoke, her eyes couldn't help but move to the side, not daring to look at him.
Yun Rongjue's thin lips hooked up a shallow smile, "My sister is so good, and my sister will be like this in the future." ”
Jiang Wu was excited, rolled his eyes, and hurriedly shook his head, "Xiao Wu doesn't dare." ”
He is the Ninth Five-Year Honor, although she is his cronies, but in the end she is just a slave, she does not dare to be called such an intimate name.
"There's nothing to dare to, if my sister refuses, and she resists the will." Yun Rongjue said.
Jiang Wu: "......"
"Xiao Wu knows." She softened softly.
Yun Rongjue saw that she was well-behaved, pinched her little face lightly, then lay down again, hugged her, closed her eyes, "Let's sleep for a while." ”
Jiang Wu was held in Yun Rongjue's arms, and she slowly lifted her eyes to look at him, he had fallen asleep.
Looking at the man's handsome face, all the things of last night came to her mind in an instant, she never thought that one day, she would be with him-
The flush of Jiang Wu's little face crept up again, she reached out and pulled the quilt, covering most of her face with the corners of the quilt.
The wind and snow outside have stopped, and the warm sun is climbing up little by little.
Palace. Jiang Sumo went to the Heart Cultivation Hall early in the morning, but was stopped by Chai Neiguan, and refused to let her in to meet Yun Rongjue.
Chai Neiguan's sudden behavior was very strange, Jiang Sumo was annoyed, and he didn't care about breaking in, but he didn't see Yun Rongjue's figure.
"Chai Neiguan, where is the emperor?!" 118
Chai Neiguan was the smartest, he didn't tell Jiang Su Moming, he just persuaded Jiang Su Mo.
"Chai Neiguan, today is the first day of the new year, the emperor does not need to go to the court, Mrs. Zhang's emperor is not early, at this time, there is no trace of the emperor everywhere, you tell the palace, where is the emperor!" If the emperor has anything to do, you can afford it?! ”
Chai Neiguan knelt down, leaned over, and said busily: "The queen is angry, the old slave really doesn't know, and the emperor has never explained to the old slave, the emperor's thoughts are not something we can speculate at will." ”
Jiang Sumo looked at Chai Neiguan, and after a long time, he snorted, "You guys are very good!" After saying that, he brushed his sleeves away angrily.
……
It was nearly four o'clock before Yun Rongjue and Jiang Wu got up, and Jiang Wu called water to wait for Yun Rongjue to wash and change clothes.
"This is what I specially asked Yu Lie to do, we will leave the palace in the future, and there is also a place to go." Yun Rongjue said.
Jiang Wu paused Yun Rongjue's waist seal and lifted his eyes to look at him, "It's like the emperor's home outside the palace, right?" ”
Family......
Yun Rongjue was a little trance-like, but after a while, she smiled and squeezed her little hand, "My sister is right, it's like a family of ours." ”
The two looked at each other, Jiang Wu was also in a trance for a moment, and after a while, she stroked his waist seal for him. She turned her head, looked at the elegant cabin, and couldn't help but say, "If it's home, I need to add something." ”
Yun Rongjue chuckled, "If my sister wants to add something, I just let Yu Lie and them do it." ”
Jiang Wu shook her head, she looked outside, "Your Majesty, it's not early, we should go back to the palace, otherwise the palace people won't see you, we should be in a hurry, as for these things to add, wait for the next chance, when we can come out again, we will choose to take a look, okay?" ”
Yun Rongjue smiled and nodded, "Sister can do whatever she wants." ”
After the two packed up, they returned to the palace.
Jiang Sumo in the palace learned the news that the two had returned to the palace, and hurriedly rushed to the Heart Cultivation Palace.
"Your Majesty, why did you leave the palace alone last night, and the concubines were worried that they didn't return this night." Jiang Sumo said.
Yun Rongjue's mood was light, "I was so interested last night that I wanted to go out of the palace for a walk, it's not a big deal, and the queen doesn't have to worry too much." ”
Jiang Sumo sighed lightly and couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, the concubine understands your feelings, but ...... Last night was Chinese New Year's Eve, you ...... You are the Ninety-Five, this palace is full of troubles, in case someone accidentally bumps into you, how is this good, where did the emperor go last night? ”
Yun Rongjue glanced at Jiang Sumo lightly, and had no intention of explaining, so after dealing with a few words casually, he let Jiang Sumo leave.
After Jiang Sumo stepped away from the Heart Nourishing Palace, she heard the sound of laughter coming from inside, her face changed slightly, and she slowly walked out of the Heart Nourishing Palace.
Fu Dong was outside the hall, and when he saw Jiang Sumo coming out, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and hugged Jiang Sumo, "Niangniang, the slave asked the guards who guarded the door last night, and the guards said that the emperor and Jiang Wu left alone last night, and even the Yu guards didn't let them follow." ”
Jiang Sumo's face was flat and he was not too surprised, but there was a deep emotion in his eyes.
"Niangniang, although we can't meddle in what the emperor wants to do, but ...... But last night was Chinese New Year's Eve, the emperor should have spent it with the empress concubine, not only did the emperor not come to our palace, but he also went out of the palace alone with Jiang Wu's maiden for one night, which is really not in accordance with the rules. ”
Jiang Sumo walked slowly on the long palace road, and sighed lightly between his words, "Whether it is in line with the rules or not, and the emperor has the final say, as long as the emperor is happy, what can other people say, this palace is just really worried about the emperor, if Mrs. Zhang knows about this, I don't know what will happen." ”
Jiang Sumo shook his head with a wry smile, glanced at Fu Dong, and Fu Dong hurriedly answered: "Mrs. Zhang has a fiery temper, if she knows about this, she will definitely lose her breath, and maybe she will make trouble in front of the emperor again." ”
Jiang Sumo sighed, "Yes, so it's better not to let her know about this." ”
Jiang Sumo's worries came true the next day, Zhang Ruo heard the news from somewhere, and sure enough, he couldn't suppress his emotions and went to cry in front of Yun Rongjue.
Yun Rongjue didn't like Zhang Ruo in the first place, and if she made such a fuss again, Yun Rongjue's disgust reached the peak, ignoring her crying and punishing her slightly.
When Jiang Sumo came to Zhang Ruo's palace, she saw Zhang Ruo writing the scriptures that Yun Rongjue punished her, and the scriptures copied by her own hands a hundred times were not a small punishment for Zhang Ruo.
"The queen is here to see the concubine's jokes? If so, the queen has seen it too, and you can go! Zhang Ruo's face was unhappy, she didn't get any good from Yun Rongjue, and she was punished for copying the scriptures, and now Jiang Sumo also took the opportunity to see her jokes, she was annoyed.
Jiang Sumo sat down next to Zhang Ruo, "My sister said with a smile, this palace is kind, come and see my sister." ”
Zhang Ruo snorted coldly, "Yes, then thank you for the kindness of the queen." ”
Jiang Sumo sighed lightly, "My sister's worries and grievances are all known in this palace, but sister, your temperament is too impatient, knowing that the emperor doesn't like to listen to that, but you still have to say, why bother, some things are actually in the past when you turn a blind eye." ”
Zhang Ruo put down the brush in his hand, "The Empress Mother said lightly, how can this matter pass with your eyes closed, the emperor is the Ninth Five-Year Venerable, but on Chinese New Year's Eve, he left the palace with a little girl, and did not return until the next morning, which point is in order?" ”
"It's not in line with the rules and it's not the emperor's decision, so why bother with my sister."
"It's the emperor's decision to be compliant or not, but if it weren't for that girl being charming by the emperor's side, why would the emperor be here? The concubine is just a little concubine, and she doesn't care so much, but what about you, the queen? You are the lord of the harem, the queen of the mother of the world, Chinese New Year's Eve is such an important time, the emperor did not spend time with the empress, if this let the people know, I am afraid that I will laugh at the bad people, your queen mother, but there is still face to speak of? ”
Jiang Sumo picked up his handkerchief and covered his lips, looking at Zhang Ruo with intent on his face.
"The face of the emperor is the face of the palace, as long as the emperor is happy, the palace will not feel anything if he is wronged, but Jiang Wu's girl ......" Jiang Su stopped talking.
"Niangniang is worried that Jiang Wu will go out with the emperor alone...... "Fu Dong said halfway through and quickly covered his lips.
Jiang Sumo glared, "Forget it, it's not something we can worry about." ”
Saying that he had no intention of listening, Zhang Ruo's eyes rolled and he called Jiang Sumo, "Do you think the emperor has ...... with that girl?"
Jiang Sumo smiled lightly, but the answer between his eyebrows was obvious.
Zhang Ruo frowned, "If that's the case, wouldn't the emperor want to reward him...... How can this be! That girl's identity is small, and she used to be a slave! ”
"Sister, don't be in such a hurry, this is not a matter yet, if the emperor really wants to, can we still stop it? Unless those courtiers oppose it, but the affairs of the previous dynasty are not something we can interfere in. ”
Zhang Ruo was silent.
Jiang Sumo looked at her, then stood up, "Okay, there are still some things in the palace, and I'm going back." ”
Zhang Ruo stood up and perfunctorily owed, constantly thinking about Fang Cai's words in his mind.
……
Above the court.
Since Yun Rongjue ascended the throne, he has implemented the old and new policies alternately, taking the essence and removing the dross, and cleaning up the mess left by Yun Feng, Chu Yin and others one by one.
Originally, the people around Chu Yin, under his reduction one by one, gradually weakened their power in the court, especially in the management of reading.
Guan Yue listened to Yun Rongjue's reproach and punishment for his affairs, and only after Yun Rongjue finished speaking, did he speak, "Your Majesty, the old minister listened to the emperor's arrangement, and knew that he had done something inappropriate, so he was willing to accept the punishment, but today, the old minister has one thing, and he is not unhappy." ”
Yun Rongjue looked at Guan Yue and said slowly, "Master Guan said." ”
"The emperor, the old courtiers and others have heard that the emperor is the honor of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, he did not spend it with the empress according to the rules of the old ancestors, but left the palace with a small palace maid, and did not return to the palace until the first day of the new year, which broke the rules of the ancestors."
Yun Rongjue's eyes were stunned, and after Yun Huang and Yuan Jing subconsciously glanced at Yun Rongjue, they glared at Guan Yue.
"Ben, who the emperor favors, the old minister should not ask, but if it is that girl, the old minister has to be loyal, that girl is lowly, the emperor should not be like this." Guan Yue said.
Yun Rongjue frowned and looked at the ministers who were talking in a low voice.
"Since Master Guan knows that he shouldn't ask, he is still asking now, which is contradictory." Yun Rongjue said coldly.
"This is my private matter, and I know that my lord is loyal, but I don't care about my private affairs." Yun Rongjue continued.
"Your Majesty, Lord Guan is loyal, and the ministers also think that Lord Guan is ...... It's reasonable. ”
"The Emperor's ......"
The courtiers below paused for a while, and Yun Rongjue looked at it with a calm face, and was silent for a long time.
"Retreat."
After retreating, Yun Rongjue went back to the harem directly, and Yun Huang and Yuan Jing couldn't say anything to him.
Yuan Jing glanced at Yunhuang, "Worried? ”
Yun Huang nodded and glanced at Yuan Jing, "Aren't you worried?" ”
"You mean the emperor or that girl."
"Yes," Yun Huang said, "The fifth brother was talked about by these old ministers, there must be pressure, and that girl ...... I'm worried about the fifth brother in case ...... So what should she do. ”
Although Yuan Jing's worry was not overflowing, a faint look of worry could be seen between his eyebrows. He patted Yunhuang on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I believe in the fifth brother, we have all seen what the fifth brother has been like to that girl in the past few years, and he cares." ”
Yun Huang sighed lightly and nodded.
Hope.
