Chapter 24: Entering the palace and asking for a meeting
Since the flood appeared, every time Yu Yongyi came back to find the emperor, he would see him dealing with piles of twists and turns in the imperial study. The number of twists and turns has increased visibly with the naked eye after Yu Yongqing went south.
"You've been here lately."
Chu Jianyu was still reviewing the folds, and he didn't even give them to Yu Yongyi at a glance.
"The son wanted to come over and see if there was anything he could share for his father."
Chu Jianyu casually threw a fold to Yu Yongyi and said, "If you are idle, help me watch the fold." ”
"That's it." Yu Yongyi smiled and put the fold back on the table, "Erchen is not willing to meddle in the affairs of the court. ”
"What are you afraid of?" Chu Jianyu raised his eyebrows, put down the fold in his hand, and raised his eyes to look at Yu Yongyi, "When I was young, I obeyed your wishes and let you fool around." Now that I'm older, it's time to get busy. You are also a prince, and you should do what a prince should do! ”
Yu Yongyi laughed and said: "My father's words are wrong, even if my sons are not busy in the court, there are other places where I can help my father." ”
"Do you want to say "Wan Jiayan"?"
"Oh? Did this book reach my father's ears? ”
"If I remember correctly, the author of this book is the Cheng Wei you mentioned."
"Exactly."
Chu Jianyu smiled and asked, "Are you the author you found from?" How can you write such words? I have taken the time to read a little, and although my writing skills are insufficient, my sincere emotions are moving. In particular, the family letter in the text ......"
"The family letters in "Wan Jiayan" are not completely apocryphal, but have their prototypes."
"Oh?" Chu Jianyu became interested.
"As far as Erchen knows, the family letter in "Wanjiayan" is a letter that Chengwei personally read when he went south to serve as the ghostwriter of Shanyuge. It can be said that many words in "Wanjiayan" are indeed the demands of the people of Xiajiang. ”
"Between the words, you seem to be familiar with this Chengwei?"
"Yes." Yu Yongyi bowed like Chu Jianyu and said, "Erchen once went to Xiajiang with Chengwei. ”
"When I am more free, I will summon this Chengwei into the palace to meet. I also want to know who this person who can write "Wan Jiayan". ”
Yu Yongyi's eyes lit up, and he said, "The son will definitely convey his father's words to Cheng Wei." ”
The father and son chatted a few more words, and Yu Yongyi left under the pretext of not disturbing work.
If the father treats his sister half kindly......
Yu Yongyi hurriedly shook his head and threw out the thoughts that flashed in his mind. Yu Yongyi, who came out of the imperial study, went straight to Yonghe Palace, and as soon as he entered the door, an unbladed iron sword was close at hand.
Yu Yongyi calmly pushed the iron sword to the side, and said with a flattering smile: "Mother, your welcome is too warm." ”
"Go get the sword, I'll fight you!"
Yu Yongyi didn't dare to refuse, and took down an unedged sword at will. The hand-to-hand battles were endless, and the sound of Jin Ming was endless. After a few rounds of back and forth, Yu Yongyi gradually fell into disadvantage.
"No." Feng Jieyu put away her long sword, "Absent-minded, what are you thinking?" ”
"No ......"
"Now that Sister Qing is here, you can't have an accident."
Yu Yongyi put the long sword back in its place and said, "There are some things, I don't know whether to tell my mother or not."
"In front of the mother, is there anything else that shouldn't be said?"
Yu Yongyi was stunned for a while, and thought for a long time before he spoke: "Mother concubine...... I fell in love with a girl. ”
"Is it Sister Qing'er's companion?"
"Hmm."
"When did you like it?" Feng Jieyu hooked her hand at him and let Yu Yongyi enter the room to speak. Seeing this, the rest of the palace maids quietly retreated, leaving space for the mother and son to speak.
"The concubine's question, the son didn't know how to answer. Even Erchen himself doesn't know when it started......"
"Now that Sister Qing'er has an unclear future, it is difficult for the mother concubine to be happy for you." Feng Jieyu said tiredly: "The mother concubine is happy for you, but she can't be happy." ”
"I know."
"When things settle down, bring her to me. I believe in your vision, she should be a good girl. ”
"Hmm......" Yu Yongyi nodded, "she is indeed a good girl." ”
"What is she like?"
"It's a ......" Yu Yongyi smiled lightly and said, "It's a bold and slender girl." ”
If she hadn't been bold, she wouldn't have taken the initiative to pretend to be a husband and wife. If it weren't for her delicate and delicate mind, she wouldn't have written down the bits and pieces of Xia Jiang and wrote "Wan Jiayan" after she came back.
More importantly, she can give herself the peace of mind that she has not felt for a long time. When he noticed it, Li Jiangwei's smile was already lingering in his mind.
"What's her name?"
"Li Jiangwei."
Li ...... Rosewood? ”
Feng Jieyu was shocked, and kneading her temples with some sorrow.
"The name Li Jiangwei...... I have heard it from the queen these two days. It seems that Concubine Xian is going to hold a flower party, and this name is among the noble ladies who plan to invite. You should pay more attention to avoid being cut off by your own brother. ”
Yu Yongyi's face was solemn, and she solemnly thanked Feng Jieyu.
Concubine Xian will have this action, and most of them already know that Li Jiangwei is Chengwei. After this identity is revealed, Chu Yongrui will definitely make a move. But Yu Yongyi never thought that it would attract a virtuous concubine.
Yu Yongyi hurriedly left the back of the harem and was met by Queen Song. Queen Song is as dignified and luxurious as ever, and there is no embarrassment after the phoenix seal is taken away.
After Yu Yongyi left completely, Empress Song slowly walked towards the imperial garden.
Spring has arrived, and many flowers in the Imperial Garden are already blooming, delicate and beautiful. Queen Song, who was shuttling among the flowers, smiled slightly, and sniffed the flowers from time to time.
"The queen is so Yaxing."
The palace maid beside the queen held her breath and retreated, not daring to make any sound.
"What Yaxing? It's just idleness. ”
"The queen is the only one who dares not to speak to me."
Empress Song smiled slightly and saluted Emperor Chu Jianyu.
"See the Emperor."
"Resentful?"
"Don't dare."
Chu Jianyu put his hands behind his back, sighed lightly, and said after a long time: "You and I will talk about a game?" ”
"The emperor should go to the virtuous concubine."
"She's not as good as you."
"Panic."
said that she was frightened, but the queen still smiled, not showing any fear or fear. The two moved to the pavilion, and the palace maid took the chessboard and jade chess pieces. A box of jade, a box of white jade.
"I haven't played against the queen for a while, and I miss it very much."
"The emperor has a lot of opportunities, and he has been busy with the affairs of Xiajiang recently. How can you save your precious free time for the game? When you are free, it is time to rest. ”
"There is no forgiveness in the mouth, and there is no forgiveness in the hands."
After a few back and forth, the jade chess pieces held by Chu Jianyu gradually fell into disadvantage.
"It's not that he doesn't spare people, but the emperor is absent-minded and doesn't care about it. That's where the opportunity comes in. ”
