After the words fell, the three of them began to drink tea and chat in the pavilion in the lake, and at this moment, there was a person in the distance who walked quickly towards this side, and saw that it was the grandmother of the Queen Mother's bedroom.

The little emperor looked up, and Mama came to the pavilion and said to the little emperor, "The emperor will go over and take a look now." The Queen Mother is not feeling well and wants Her Majesty to go over and take a look now. ”

Chu Yuchen put down the teacup and said, "Since the Queen Mother let Your Majesty pass, maybe there are some things I want to say to Your Majesty in private, so this King and Lord Song will retreat together." ”

The little emperor did not delay, got up and followed Mama over.

Without the two of them following, the little emperor walked a few steps and turned back to the two and said, "Uncle Huang, Lord Song, you two are still waiting for me to come back, and I will come back here to see the Queen Mother, and there are still some things to discuss with you." ”

When the little emperor and his grandmother left, Chu Yuchen got up and said, "Let's go to the Imperial Garden, at this time, the lotus flowers are blooming, and the lotus flowers in the Imperial Garden are a must." ”

Song Yunshu said helplessly: "Didn't the emperor tell me to wait for him in the same place?" ”

"You and I are not leaving the Imperial Garden, why bother with these rules, when the emperor comes, someone will naturally report it."

Chu Yuchen's words made Song Yunshu unable to refute them, so the two of them took a walk together in the imperial garden, and at this moment, in the pond or lake of the imperial garden, the lotus flowers were indeed blooming.

The two walked on the small bridge and stopped, Song Yunshu looked at it, the pond was spread out with greenery, and lotus flowers were dotted among them, elegant and fresh.

"I didn't even see such a beautiful scenery in the Imperial Garden." She sighed and sighed.

"That's nature, with that dull ritual book, what beauty can you see?" Chu Yuchen said with a chuckle.

"I'm afraid that not all of your thoughts are spent thinking about the words of the Ministry of Rites?"

"You're really insightful." Song Yunshu couldn't help laughing.

Because what Chu Yuchen said was indeed right, he was walking in the imperial garden with the Ministry of Rites Shangshu just now, although the beautiful scenery around him was breathtaking.

But his mind was all about how to arrange the banquet, especially the methods of the Ministry of Rites, which made Song Yunshu have a headache when he thought about it now.

"In fact, the words of the Ministry of Rites today's words can also show the current situation in the Chu State." Song Yunshu sighed slightly and said: "The official of the Ministry of Rites is the official value, and he will say such an exaggerated banquet arrangement today, in fact, it can be seen that the officials of our court have already been extravagant and wasteful. ”

"Habit is what people are most afraid of, that is, a habit, when you are too accustomed to an environment, it is difficult to detect the problems in your environment."

"Well, indeed, it's you, who can be sober and self-aware, and be like this pool of lotus flowers." 、

Song Yunshu turned his head to look at him, and didn't react for a while: "Huh? ”

Chu Yuchen waved his sleeves and pointed to the beautiful scenery of the pool below, and said to Song Yunshu: "It is the common saying, the water is clear and ripples are not demons, and the mud is not stained." ”

Song Yunshu sneered, and couldn't help but say, "It's an exaggeration." ”

Chu Yuchen saw that Song Yunshu finally smiled, and the corners of his lips were also dyed with a smile.

The two then walked through the lotus pond, and Song Yunshu suddenly saw a child playing there?

Thinking of Xiaobao, he couldn't help but step forward to tease. "Which kid are you, and how do you play in the Imperial Garden?"

"My name is Xiaohu, and my godfather is Gonggong Li." The child replied with a smile at Song Yunshu.

A palace maid on the side hurriedly came over and said, "This is the child adopted by Gonggong Li." ”

Seeing Song Yunshu looking at him suspiciously, Chu Yuchen explained on the side: "Many fathers-in-law in the palace who are old and have a high status will adopt a child and put it by their side. ”

Song Yunshu teased the child, and then left with Chu Yuchen.

"Miss Xiaobao, right?" Chu Yuchen said with a smile.

Song Yunshu stretched, exhaled, and said, "Yes, I don't know what Xiaobao is doing, whether he has a good endorsement." ”

Just as the two of them were walking in the imperial garden, they suddenly heard a sound of water behind them?

Then there was the palace maid's cry for help, and the two hurriedly turned around, and Song Yunshu saw that it was the child who had fallen into the water just now.

She hurried over, and Chu Yuchen was about to jump down, but was stopped by Song Yunshu: "Don't, the lotus flowers in the imperial garden pool are too dense, and you will be blocked if you go down." ”

The palace maids on the side were so anxious that they were at a loss, Song Yunshu pointed to the tree on the side, Chu Yuchen immediately understood, stepped forward and broke a long branch, and then went to fish for the child.

The child had choked on a lot of water during the struggle, and the branches were beside him, and he struggled to beat and did not scratch them.

Song Yunshu squatted on the shore, stretched out his hand and tried to pull the child, while comforting softly: "Xiaohu, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, grab the stick and we can pull you up." ”

After Song Yunshu comforted him, Xiaohu finally calmed down a little and grabbed the stick.

Chu Yuchen pulled the child over and picked it up, and handed it over to the palace maid.

Song Yunshu saw that there was sweat on his forehead, and stretched out his sleeve to gently wipe it for him: "You are nervous." ”

Chu Yuchen said softly: "I just suddenly thought that if it was Xiaobao who fell into the water, you would stop me from going down, but the person who fell into the water is often panicked and difficult to control, not to mention that it is a child, what if it is Xiaobao." ”

"Xiaobao, okay, why should you worry about something that hasn't happened because of imagination?"

Song Yunshu watched the child calm down, and came over to thank himself and Chu Yuchen, and then was led away by the palace maid.

Song Yunshu understood that Chu Yuchen also cared about Xiaobao in his heart, so when he looked at a child like Xiaobao, he became nervous.

There was also a burst of warmth in her heart, and at this moment there was a eunuch announcement, it seemed that the little emperor had returned.

So the two of them walked towards the Lake Pavilion again, and the little emperor was already waiting in place.

"I just went over with Master Song." Chu Yuchen sat down and explained.

They didn't explain such a small matter to the Son of Heaven, it was just insignificant, and there was no big problem if the person was fine.

Obviously, the little emperor didn't care about anything else, but thought of the question just now.

The little emperor said "um", and after sitting down, he thought about the topic just now, and he was very concerned in his heart, so he asked Song Yunshu again.

"Actually, I see that Lord Song is confident, so he must have something to do with this matter, right? I don't know if Lord Song can talk about it. ”

He looked at Song Yunshu with expectant eyes, hoping that Song Yunshu could also tell her method and solve the doubts in his heart.

Chu Yuchen also looked at Song Yunshu with some curiosity, wanting to hear how Song Yunshu planned to solve this matter.

How could he hide this little bit of caution, Chu Yuchen and Song Yunshu, who had become old fritters?

Song Yunshu chuckled, and calmly said to the two people who looked at him: "Everything, it still depends on the results of the investigation, and only after the results are available, can the officials explain to the emperor well." ”
