Chapter 182: Fire
Ji Yun suddenly stopped.
Su'er hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with Miss?" ”
Ji Yun walked over and gently pushed open the window.
Su'er probed over, but there was no one outside.
"Nothing!"
Chi Yun touched the edge of the window lattice, his fingers dipped in some delicate incense powder, and he sniffed at the end of his nose.
"This is the fragrance of the Sabbath country, and it is called the shadow of the Buddha. This incense is very rare, and only a few merchants in the Western Regions will sell it. Since three months ago, the first place that those merchants who sell curiosities to go to the capital seems to be King Kang's Mansion......"
Su'er was stunned for a moment and asked, "What does Miss mean, there were people from King Kang's Mansion peeping just now?" ”
Ji Yun nodded.
And she has the exact person in mind.
After all, not everyone can use such a valuable spice.
"Su'er, you are not familiar with the palace, hurry up and change Aunt Mei. Remember, avoid people. ”
"Yes." Su'er hurried away.
Ji Yun closed the window, sat back in front of the dresser, and made a make-up look.
Although Miss Chi's martial arts are three-legged cats, it is not a problem to deal with a backhouse woman.
After a while, the window was gently tapped again, and the other party observed her movements, and walked away cautiously.
Aunt May arrived soon.
"Miss......"
Ji Yun made a silent gesture in time, looked at the window, and avoided behind the screen.
She lowered her voice and got straight to the point: "Auntie, someone wants to harm me!" ”
……
The emperor heard the report from the inner servant, and Princess Kang asked to see him, and his heart was tired for a while.
Since the eldest princess entered Chaofang Palace, she has never come out.
If it weren't for him, his mother-in-law, to provoke her, she wouldn't have come out and walk around again.
It's really not enough to succeed, but more than to fail.
But after all, this is his own mother, and he can't really ignore it.
Under the pretext of changing clothes, the emperor left the table and went to the side hall.
"Your Majesty!" When Princess Kang saw him, she greeted him with a happy face.
The emperor helped her and said gently, "What's the matter with my aunt?" The feast is ongoing, and I can't leave for a long time. ”
Princess Kang wiped her tears when she heard this: "Now that Xiaoba has left my side, your eldest brother treats me like a prisoner again, and now even you dislike me?" ”
The emperor was weak for a while, and said, "What did the aunt say?" How could I dislike you? It's really not very convenient today. ”
Princess Kang saw that he was talking nicely, but her eyes kept looking out, looking absent-minded, and she believed in her own judgment more and more.
He's going to meet that!
Really, why don't you learn from his eldest brother, he doesn't have any determination in the matter of women.
Princess Kang forgot that just last month, she was still scolding her eldest son, and she forgot her mother when she had a daughter-in-law.
She suppressed the anger in her heart and made a pitiful look: "Ah Xun, last time it really wasn't about my aunt, it was your aunt and uncle of the Cao family, who was provoked by Ling Yang for a few words, and wanted to be angry for your cousin." My aunt just scolded me twice, and you also know that since I was sent to Zhuangzi, your eldest brother put me under house arrest in disguise......"
As she spoke, she was really sad and complained to the emperor: "I, the princess, can climb to the top." Forget about your eldest brother, now he is in charge of the house. But Wu, who is a daughter-in-law, also dares to use chicken feathers as arrows. This month, she treats her aunt as a prisoner, and everyone in my room has to look at her face......"
The emperor listened to it for a while, it was all trivial things, and he was already impatient in his heart.
Just as he was about to find an excuse to leave, he suddenly heard a commotion outside, and then someone broke into the side hall and shouted: "Your Majesty! The Gyokuro Hall is out of the water, please take a shelter. ”
The emperor was stunned and was about to speak, but he heard Princess Kang shout first: "What? How can it walk the water? Where did you go to the water? ”
The chamberlain replied, "It's the wing of the apse." ”
Princess Kang was taken aback.
The wing room of the apse is the place to change clothes, why is it so coincidental that she asked someone to do that, and the apse is on fire, does it have anything to do with that girl?
Wait, whether it matters or not, with this fire, can she still cover up her misconduct in the palace?
Princess Kang turned her surprise into joy, and immediately persuaded softly: "Your Majesty's safety is the most important, let's avoid it, the Yulu Hall is on the side!" ”
The emperor looked at her expression change, with a look of joy that he wanted to hide but couldn't hide, and his brows furrowed.
He really can't figure out the mind of this mother-in-law, and what is he thinking? It's a good day on Qixi Festival, and the palace is on fire, is it still a happy event?
Thinking so in my heart, I have to deal with it calmly on my face.
He got up and walked out: "What about Hunn?" Did you arrange an evacuation? Quickly go to the Praetorian Guard to put out the fire, and step on it carefully. Are the Queen Mother and the eldest princess still in the Yulu Palace? I'm going to take a look......"
The dancing music outside had stopped.
When the emperor went out, the courtiers gathered outside the palace.
Prime Minister Chang Yong came over and said: "Your Majesty is relieved, it is just a small fire, and it has not burned to the front." ”
The emperor looked up, and sure enough, he saw that there was only a faint light on the side of the Yulu Palace.
He breathed a sigh of relief, but when he saw the place where the smoke was coming from, a person suddenly ran out.
The man was on fire, and he shouted as he ran: "Help! Help me! ”
The ministers were first stunned, and then surprised.
How is it a man?
Aren't all women in the Gyokuro Palace? Except for women, only eunuchs are right!
Soon someone recognized it and said in a low voice: "King Huaining! It's King Huaining! ”
Those who can mix to participate in the palace banquet are not fuel-efficient lamps. For a while, all the ministers showed intriguing expressions.
No way? Could it be that this fire also led to a court scandal?
But I don't know which palace concubine is involved? No matter who it is, His Majesty's face is not good-looking.
Sure enough, the emperor was stunned at first, and then his face sank.
"Changxiang, I'll leave it to you here, I'll go and see if the Queen Mother is okay."
Chang Yong bowed down with interest and made a pun: "Yes, please rest assured Your Majesty." ”
He will keep his mouth shut, and he will not spread the word to the outside world.
Yu Shenzhi blended in the crowd and quietly pulled Lou Yan's sleeve.
"What kind of play do you say this is singing? It looks like someone is going to be out of luck. ”
Lou Yan frowned, always having a bad premonition in his heart.
When he saw Princess Kang coming out of the side hall and chasing the emperor to the Yulu Palace, his heart suddenly twitched, and he pulled back his sleeves and was about to go to the Yulu Palace.
"Hey, why are you going?" Yu Shenzhi shouted.
Lou Yan didn't reply: "Your Majesty may have something difficult, and go to share your worries." ”
As soon as he left, some people around him said sourly: "Look, people know how to do things!" At this time, I remember to share my worries for Your Majesty, no wonder the official was promoted so quickly. ”
Yu Shenzhi hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and followed: "I'll go with you!" ”
The courtier who said sour words was stunned, and said to his familiar colleagues: "What does the eldest son of the Yu family have to do with Lou Si?" His Majesty clearly wants to deal with private matters, Lou Si is flattering, why should he bother to get involved? ”
"Who knows? It's hard to say......"
The two looked at each other, and they both showed mysterious expressions.
Well, it's a relationship that can't be said.
