Chapter 36 The Lotus Lantern Shines
There was a long scroll in the pavilion, and everyone was chattering around it. The prince stepped forward, and everyone slowly withdrew. What a picture of the rising sun, Princess Jingrong actually included the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains under the morning glow in this dexterous needlework, which is not something ordinary people can do in a day or two.
Kang Yufei took a deep breath, fortunately his handkerchief had not been given to the prince, otherwise, such a clumsy and petty thing would be laughed at again.
"Jing Rong's thoughts, I am very satisfied. Hahaha. The emperor rubbed Jing Rong's head lovingly, and when he saw the prince leading Kang Yufei over, he greeted him from behind the embroidery scroll, "Yufei, where have you gone, the prince has been looking for you for one night." ”
"Back to Your Majesty, the courtiers went elsewhere to see the lanterns, and before they knew it, they went away."
"Look at it, Yu Fei is not like Yu Fei anymore, it's all your fault for His Royal Highness the Prince." The emperor was smiling, and he still looked like the "imperial uncle" who loved her in every way.
"Yes, Erchen knows his mistakes, and he will never dare to blame Yufei in the future." The prince chuckled, but Yu Fei felt that he was mocking himself.
"What is the girl behind you?"
Yu Fei didn't expect the emperor to pay attention to this, "Back to Your Majesty......"
The prince interrupted her softly, "Don't stick to these rules, or I will be scolded again." ”
Yu Fei learned from the appearance of the prince just now, and also gave a fake smile, "Uncle Huang, this lotus lantern is very ugly, I like it, so I took it off." ”
"Come, bring it up to me." The emperor raised the lotus lantern, causing everyone around him to snicker, "This is too casual." How was this sent to the palace? ”
"Uncle Huang thinks it's casual, I think it's good to be casual, it's all finely crafted here, beautiful is beautiful, but it lacks this casual energy. That's it, it's fun to watch. ”
"You, what's in your little head, weird." The emperor patted her lightly and shook his head happily.
"Yo, there is a lantern riddle here, three horizontal and one vertical heart, this lantern fan, I see, you are happy watching the lantern riddle, right?" The emperor smiled slyly at Kang Yufei, "But it's a jade word." ”
Kang Yufei nodded, and this time he smiled a little sincerely.
The prince looked at her smiling face, and his hand unconsciously clenched into a fist.
Concubine Mei looked at the emperor's happy energy, and hurriedly asked, "There are still a few lantern riddles, Your Majesty wants to guess them." ”
"I? I can't compare to these little heads. He poked Kang Yufei's head, "Come, let's guess together, guess and get a reward." ”
Concubine Mei is waiting for this sentence, which is happy with the people, and the last and most important thing is to let everyone enjoy the grace of the emperor of the heavenly family.
"The first question is, a flock of geese chasing the boat, typing a word."
"Patrol. Out of the patrol. Kang Yufei replied without thinking.
"Yo, our Jade Fei is so powerful." The emperor applauded.
"Uncle Huang praised it falsely, my second brother took the test for me last year, so I wrote it down."
"Haha, Yufei, you're too honest. If you say this, how can I be embarrassed to reward you? The emperor smiled and seemed to be in a particularly good mood.
Concubine Mei was smart, "That Jade Fei County Lord is really strong, and it is also worthy of His Majesty's reward." ”
"Yes, Concubine Mei is right, I will reward you for your sincerity." The emperor looked at the crown prince, "I'm afraid that we don't lack anything, what do you want, you can speak yourself." ”
Kang Yufei suddenly received a reward, and suddenly it was like a dream, so he spoke according to his own wishes, "Uncle Huang, Yufei wants to go out of the palace." ”
The emperor was slightly stunned, didn't seem to hear clearly, leaned forward a little more, and looked at Kang Yufei, "What did you say?" ”
"Father, the son is willing to accompany Yufei out of the palace and protect her."
The emperor's face immediately turned to a smile, "Prince, you help Yufei like this, it's hard for me to say anything, yes." ”
Even though Kang Yufei was reluctant in every way, he couldn't say anything, so he could only grit his teeth and thank the emperor for his grace.
"I'm finally able to get out of the palace, why are you still doing it with a straight face." Yi Min didn't seem to understand Kang Yufei's melancholy.
Kang Yufei put the lotus lantern into the canal at will, "The prince follows behind, what's the point?" ”
Yi Min tugged at her sleeve and pointed her mouth forward.
Kang Yufei didn't need to look up to guess that the prince must be staring at her not far away, "Forget it, go back, the ghost is so ghostly, there is no mood at all." ”
When the prince saw her walking away, he motioned to Zhao Baojiang, "Go and pick it up." ”
Soon, the casual-looking lotus lantern was held in front of the prince's eyes. The prince dismantled it completely in three or two clicks. A small bamboo tube was exposed in the lamp. There was a note in the bamboo tube, "The ends of the earth." ”
The prince threw the lotus lantern at his feet, stepped on it viciously several times, and tore the note to shreds. Kang Yufei, the ends of the earth, you can't go anywhere.
On the sixteenth day of the first month, the opening of the seal and the restoration of the dynasty, the court chattered and quarreled for a day, speaking of which, it was all for those things in the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, what Kang Sangongzi was slandered and wanted justice...... What Zhenbei Army Marshal Seal can't be handed over for no reason...... There is even a request to seal the town of Beihou as the prince of Zhenbei...... Fortunately, the prince was prepared, and this noise was barely suppressed.
Kang Yuche matter, the prince had to grit his teeth, promote him to a thousand commanders, and give an order to comfort a few words.
The commander of the Zhenbei army is okay, and the candidate seems to be blameless, so he just listens to a few more complaints.
It was the word Zhenbei Gong, and he was angry when he heard it, and he couldn't help but say a few heavy words, saying that what credit did the Zhenbei Hou Mansion have in the past few years, so he dared to ask for this reward, and he didn't want to be cheeky. It's troublesome to think about it, if the Hou Mansion of Zhenbei cares, I'm afraid that I will end up with a disrespectful hero.
The only thing that made him feel happy was that the Ministry of Rites handed over the selected wedding date, and the earliest one was the first day of February.
But the long day is finally over. Tomorrow, I have to regain my spirits and deal with Kang Yufei.
Early in the morning of the second day, the prince went to Kang Yufei's residence before he went to court to make an itinerary.
Kang Yufei stretched his face, he didn't want to see him, he struggled for a long time, and grinded until it was almost early before letting him enter the door.
"I know that you don't want to see me, and you don't want me to follow, but you have these twists and turns in your heart, so I naturally don't feel at ease."
Kang Yufei knelt on the ground, lowered his eyes, and didn't bother to reply to him without saying a word.
"If you don't think about these ends of the earth, I ...... too"
When Kang Yufei heard this, he suddenly stood up, "You? It's really shameless, he even stopped his own lotus lantern, "The means are really ......"
"Kang Yufei, if it's ......"
"What ifs, what ifs."
The prince closed his eyes, was silent for a long time, and suddenly sneered, "Then don't count on your end of the earth, there is no possibility, the Ministry of Rites has set a wedding date, the first day of the second month." ”
"So fast?" But it doesn't matter if Kang Yufei thinks about it, it's a sure thing anyway, sooner or later, it's like this, "The courtiers know." ”
Unexpectedly, Kang Yufei reacted so unhurriedly, which made the fire in the prince's nest burn even more.
"Also, my father only allowed you to leave the palace, but didn't promise you to go home, so don't count on it."
"You, don't go too far." Now, even if you bow down and make a humble state, you are not trampled under your feet, and you will not be able to break free from it.
The prince found a hint of his own survival from her angry reaction, and this was the only way to exhale that breath, and he smiled happily, "I ask for my own favor, and I accept it myself." ”
Kang Yufei still wanted to come forward to theorize, but was stopped by Yi Min, and could only watch the prince leave proudly.
"Why bother about this, out of the palace, who can still watch you."
When Kang Yufei heard Yi Min's words, he immediately laughed, yes, the three sons of the Kang family, who were both wise and brave, couldn't stop him, he was a canary trapped in the palace, and he could have a few good jumps out of the palace.
