Chapter 184: Be cautious in your deeds and words
Now that the matter has been explained clearly, Kang Yufei knows that he has to return to Qingning Palace as soon as possible and cheer up to deal with the emperor. But when she really walked out of the Shen Criminal Division, she played a small drum in her heart again, and she was extremely uneasy.
She glanced back at the swarthy door of the Penal Division, and it was funny to say, at some point, this place became the place she wanted to stay the most.
There was a sound of squirming footsteps not far in front of the road, and before Kang Yufei could turn his head to look over, he heard the emperor's voice, "Why are you here?" ”
The tone was very flat, and he couldn't hear the joy and anger, but Kang Yufei didn't dare to take it lightly, and squeezed out a smile and stepped forward, "Has the emperor just come down?" Do you want to go to Qingning Palace to sit? "Avoiding the important has always been the best way for her to avoid problems.
The emperor squinted his eyes slightly and looked at her, but did not reply to her words.
"Let's go, lunch is also arranged in Qingning Palace, the dried meat that the emperor said a few days ago, they sent it, you have to taste it."
Kang Yufei stretched out his hand and grabbed the emperor's arm, pulling him towards the direction of Qingning Palace, the emperor did not shirk, and walked a few steps according to her meaning, but slowly stopped.
"No, there's still a lot of work to deal with, so I won't go to you." Although the emperor said this, he did not let go of Kang Yufei's pull, and turned his head sideways to look at Kang Yufei fixedly.
Being stared at by the emperor like this, Kang Yufei was very weak-hearted, immediately let go of his hand, and tried to pretend to be disappointed and said, "I still want to stay with the emperor for a while, it's really ...... The emperor is empty, but remember to come to Qingning Palace. ”
The hand that had just let go was suddenly grabbed by the emperor, and the good-looking face came to her and asked softly, "Do you really want to come?" ”
She was so nervous that she stood there and forgot to respond. By the time he reacted, the emperor was far gone.
She sighed slightly, her breathing was a little unsmooth, and after thinking about it carefully, the emperor used "I" just now, instead of the usual "I", could it be that she already had some doubts?
The emperor walked for a long time before stopping, and he still missed her appearance in his heart. Although she is always in front of him on weekdays, she always has a faint sense of alienation, and today's intimate gesture is not an ordinary appearance, it is a look that he expects greatly but does not dare to expect, and it is also a look that will make him lose his mind. Last time, he was hugged by her and gave the title of nobleman, but this time he was pulled by her, and he had to do something ridiculous, he didn't dare to think about it, so he ran away.
There is no warm sun today, and the wind in early spring is still a little cool to the bones, which is suitable for refreshing and refreshing. He stood for a long time by the lake in the Imperial Garden, letting the cool breeze blow against his cheeks.
"Your Majesty, it's windy here, let's go and take shelter." Zhao Baojiang has come to persuade him several times, but he didn't hear it.
"Your Majesty, Lord Yuan asks to see you." Zhao Baojiang's words brought the emperor back.
"Let him come." The emperor looked around, there was no obstruction everywhere, thought about it, raised his hand and pointed to the gazebo not far away, "Wait, let him go there and wait for me." ”
The gazebo is backed by a rockery, which can block some cold wind, and more importantly, it is in a corner and is not easy to be found.
Yuan Xingang was not waiting alone this time, he led a person, this person lowered his head, and as soon as he reached the corner of the emperor's coat, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed in a proper manner.
"Get up, silence." The emperor raised his hand, and Yuan Xingang pulled him up.
Although he was just a little eunuch with a soft voice, he stood up without humility or arrogance, and stood straight, so that the emperor forgot a little at a glance what he called him over.
"Say, what did Zhao Guiren tell you?" It was Yuan Xingang who asked first.
Shen Mo bowed slightly, "Master Zhao's identity is different from the past, today I am here to tell the slaves, in the future, we must be respectful and humble and reasonable, and don't let others misunderstand." ”
"Hush." The emperor couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and sneered. He had heard a lot of lies, and it was the first time that he had been so nonsense, "The Master Zhao you said and I don't know the same person, right?" ”
When Shen Mo heard this, he knelt down with interest, but he didn't beg for mercy or explain, he just knelt.
Yuan Xingang picked up Shen Mo again and said to him, "Okay, don't fool the emperor with all this, the emperor knows everything before and after." Just tell me, what did Zhao Guiren tell you about that sword? The more detailed, the better. ”
"The sword?" Shen Mo muttered a few words repeatedly, and when he raised his eyes to look at the emperor again, his eyes were in a trance, "What sword?" ”
The emperor patted his thigh and laughed, "Shen Mo, Gonggong Shen, I didn't expect you to be a good man." That's okay, you know the punishment of the Prudential Division, I have time to grind slowly with you. ”
"Silence, don't hold on, there are some things that you can't afford if you want to." Yuan Xingang also persuaded on the side, he thought that this matter should be soon, so he proposed to the emperor to be silent in the first trial, but he didn't expect to freeze at the beginning, and he was quite embarrassed.
"The slave really doesn't know, and Master Zhao didn't mention this to the minion." Shen lowered his head, although his body was extremely humble, but there was a resoluteness in his words that people did not dare to refute.
Yuan Xingang turned his head and looked at the emperor, he was afraid that he would have to be punished in such a situation, but he didn't dare to make this decision.
The emperor's attention was not in Shen Mo's words, he was staring at a purse on Shen Mo's waist, it seemed that the embroidery was not very good, and the style was plain, it should not be that people would be willing to carry the ornaments on their bodies, unless it was given by someone else.
"Who gave you this?" The emperor stretched out his hand to take him off and looked at it carefully, it was indeed random stitches, and it would never come from the hands of people in this palace, even if the people rarely had such vulgar workmanship.
"Minions, minions embroider and play with themselves." Shen Mo was obviously panicked, his eyes dodged, and his words did not have the composure just now.
"She gave it to you, right?" Although this sentence is easy to say, it is very difficult to get the emperor to accept this answer.
The emperor knew that Kang Yufei was not good at being a woman, and her eyes were not very good, even if he had all the expectations in his heart, he was reluctant to ask her for an embroidery. Unexpectedly, Shen Mo got it. How does this make him accept?
Silent for a long time did not raise his head, the glow shone on him, and a somewhat dazzling circle of light fell, faintly hiding his humble eunuch uniform. There are no terrible scars on this side of his face, in the dazzling sunlight, showing clear traces of facial features, the eyebrows and the bridge of the nose, after looking at it for a long time, it is a bit like the emperor's own face that falls far away on the bronze mirror when he gets up every morning to dress and freshen up.
Like yourself? The emperor was shocked by this thought, stood up, and came closer. In the early years, there was a person in the palace of Concubine Chen, the biological mother of the fourth prince Jing Xuan, who looked similar to him. At that time, he was still a precarious prince, and although he was uneasy about this matter, he could not do anything about it. Fortunately, it was not long before I heard that the man had been burned in the face by the fire. Thinking about it carefully, that person happened to be surnamed Shen.
