CHAPTER XXII
As soon as they entered the courtyard gate, Feng Jiu sent Xian'e away, who had led them away, and walked alone under a tall coral tree.
Brilliant colors bring this distinguished courtyard to life. The laid-back polyps swayed slightly, as if they were interested in the new arrivals.
Feng Jiu lowered his head, kicked a stone on the ground with his foot, and muttered in his mouth: "It's really a trick." ”
Donghua looked at her back, a smile flashed at the corner of his mouth, paced over, and said in her ear: "Vinegar?" ”
Feng Jiu tilted his head slightly to dodge his warm breath, rolled his eyes, and replied, "No." ”
Donghua suddenly reached out and grabbed her waist and let her stick to his arms, and said with a smile in his voice: "Really vinegared?" ”
The emperor's movements caught Feng Jiu a little off guard, she propped her hands on his chest, glanced at him, and said stiffly: "It's all said that it's not there." There are so many people who like you, if I am jealous of all of them, it is better to soak in the vinegar vat. ”
Donghua looked at her for a while, reached out and stroked a strand of long hair on her sideburns, "Rest early tonight, and I'll get up tomorrow when I'm ugly." ”
Feng Jiu was stunned, "Why do you have to get up so early?" ”
Donghua raised his eyebrows, "You forgot what you came here for?" ”
Feng Jiu thought for a while, Fang Xingqi said that Donghua would take her to see the sunrise in the morning, she rubbed her nose and said, "I thought you were actually here to ask about Yaoxi and Wuhao." ”
Donghua lowered his head close to the tip of her nose and said softly, "Are you still vinegar?" ”
Feng Jiu opened his mouth and was about to retort, "I didn't", but the end note was contained in Donghua's mouth.
His kisses often invaded her lips so unguardedly. The fragrance of white sandalwood lingered, and her tongue acted recklessly in her mouth, stirring her breathing short, and her brain was a pot of porridge. Under the calm appearance, there was a hurricane-like force, making Feng Jiu feel as if he was in the middle of the waves, the rolling waves were surging, as if even the blood was about to boil together.
Tonight, who said to go to bed early?
The faint salty smell of sea water in the air makes the breath in the room less warm, but it brings a little more turbulence. The emperor seems to be in a good mood today, and there is both domineering and restrained tenderness in his actions, Feng Jiu thought in a daze, didn't he think that his jealous appearance made him extremely happy? Such...... Tomorrow...... Can you still get up......
At the end of the ugly hour, the emperor dressed Feng Jiu, who was still asleep, and carried her to the wild goose on the West Sea.
Before dawn, it is the darkest time in heaven and earth.
Feng Jiu leaned softly on his arms and fell asleep, delicate and still like a girl. The morning breeze was a little cold, and he wrapped his robe around her body, as if he was a little tired from tossing. A smile appeared in Donghua's eyes and he stroked her cheek.
He is not the only one who attracts the wind? If she is seen by others, I don't know how much lovesickness will be aroused.
He glanced at the sky, raised his hand and patted her head, and said softly: "Wake up, didn't you say that you want to see the sunrise over the sea of clouds?" I can only watch the sunset when I don't get up anymore. ”
Feng Jiu was awakened by him, and his eyes couldn't adjust to the darkness in front of him for a while. She hummed and complained in a nasal voice: "I don't blame you, I said I was going to bed early...... "I opened my mouth and yawned, and rubbed my eyes again, "It's good that the sunrise here is a little late, otherwise I wouldn't have to sleep." ”
Donghua suddenly laughed, in Feng Jiu's impression, he seemed to have never laughed out loud like this, she was much more energetic all of a sudden, and she could see things in front of her clearly at this time, she touched the corner of the emperor's mouth, and said with a smile: "Your laughing voice is so good, will you laugh more in the future?" ”
If there is anything in this world that Emperor Donghua can't stand it, then first, Feng Jiu was hurt, and second, she was coquettish with him like this. He is no longer the Emperor of Donghua who can tease her to say, "You cry louder", he is just her husband, and he will do his best to satisfy her what she wants.
Donghua stared into her eyes, brighter than the morning stars on the horizon. He nodded slowly, a smile on his lips.
He was so obedient, which made Feng Jiu very satisfied, she suddenly kissed his lips like a dragonfly, and was about to withdraw from it, but the emperor's hand tightly clamped her and pressed it up. Feng Jiu's hand quickly covered his mouth, "Didn't you say look at the sea of clouds?" What do you want to do? ”
Donghua raised his eyebrows, "Who took the initiative?" Because his mouth was still covered by Feng Jiu, his voice sounded a little muffled.
Feng Jiu blinked his eyes and said confidently: "Fang is the only way, this is the moment, and you have to watch the sunrise carefully at this moment." ”
Donghua said in a low voice with a smile in his eyes: "I have tried it in the sea, but I haven't tried it in the sea of clouds." ”
Feng Jiu was speechless for a while, staring at his eyes and opening his mouth, and it took a long time to speak: "You can say such shameless words!" You ......" she didn't know what words to use to continue, and just then, the first rays of the morning sun appeared on the horizon to relieve her.
Her eyes widened as she watched the golden light sprinkle inch by inch over the sea of clouds, and the fluttering clouds danced lightly in the morning light like a gauze made of gold silk.
Donghua held the hand covering his face, looking at the golden light jumping in her eyes, and the cold face of ten thousand years showed soft lines.
Feng Jiu grabbed him and ran up among the sea of clouds. She giggled, her fiery red dress covered with golden glow, like a newborn phoenix bird, full of innocence, flying between heaven and earth.
So dazzling.
Many years later, Donghua still loves to depict her appearance at this time. In the vast sky, only she jumped between the golden waves, bright and warm. Feng Jiu teased him, the family couldn't put her paintings anymore, if he wanted to paint again, she would have to sell them, maybe she could sell them for a good price. Donghua only said coldly: "Who dares to buy it?" ”
After watching the sunrise with satisfaction, Feng Jiu went back to sleep with the emperor with satisfaction and excitement.
No one dared to disturb her, and the Xian'e who was waiting in the courtyard did not dare to come out. Until the third pole of the sun, Feng Jiu was woken up by hunger. Thinking that the emperor seemed to have only taken care of her diet the night before, and had not eaten anything himself, he got up and went to the kitchen to cook some side dishes to his taste.
"Do it yourself?" Donghua asked.
"Well, I'm afraid you'll eat me again if you're hungry." She ignored Donghua's smiling eyes, simply pulled her hair in a bun and went to the small kitchen in the courtyard.
Xian'e, who was in the kitchen, saw her come in and hurriedly went over to give a salute. Feng Jiu waved his hand and smiled gently: "You don't have to be nervous, I'm just here to cook something for the emperor that he likes to eat." You can help me with a hand. ”
An immortal hurriedly responded: "Empress Bing, we have prepared breakfast for you and the emperor, you can see ......" The latter words did not dare to finish, probably because he was afraid that his words would collide with Feng Jiu.
Seeing their sincere and frightened appearances, Feng Jiu smiled gently, "Then bring it to me." ”
Xian'e hurriedly brought the prepared exquisite breakfast to Feng Jiu to see, Feng Jiu sighed secretly in his heart, the old dragon king really cares, just smelling the taste, you know that these diets have obviously put a lot of effort into it, no, it can't be said. It's okay, she's going to save trouble. She nodded slightly and said to them, "Then bring it in." ”
When Feng Jiu returned to the room, Donghua was tying the strap of his outer robe, and when he saw her coming back, he said casually: "So fast? ”
Feng Jiu replied: "Well, the old dragon king is very attentive, and he ordered someone to make a lot of exquisite food and drink in the morning, I saw that it should suit your taste, so I didn't bother to embarrass them." ”
Donghua nodded, tied his clothes and glanced at her, and said, "Come here." ”
Feng Jiu asked as he walked, "What to do?" ”
Donghua pressed her on the chair, dismantled the bun she had just pulled up at random, turned out a comb, and began to help her comb her hair seriously.
Feng Jiu was a little confused, "Why did you think of combing my hair today?" She asked, and let him comb her head motionlessly.
Donghua seemed to ponder for a moment, and said calmly: "Practice more deputy skills." ”
Feng Jiu: "Oh, then you practice quickly, otherwise the rice will be cold." ”
The garden is half-open and closed, with a faint purple glow. Yaoyue, who was wearing a purple dress, was lying inside, thinking quietly about her thoughts.
A few of the fairies entered the garden and stood by the coral reef beneath the clams.
A thin voice said: "I heard that the emperor and the queen have not yet gotten up, and the dragon king has been waiting to meet them." ”
Another fairy said: "But I just passed by the palace gate, and I heard the gate guard say that the emperor went out with the emperor before dawn, and it took a long time after sunrise to come back hand in hand." The emperor seems to be in a very good mood, and she has been talking and laughing with the emperor! ”
The thin-throated Xian'e was puzzled: "But the Dragon King has just sent someone to ask, there is no movement in the emperor's room, and breakfast is useless." Isn't it ......" She paused and guessed boldly: "The emperor and the queen are sleeping in the cage?" ”
A few people next to him hid their faces and snickered. After a while, another voice sounded, which seemed to be a little emotional, "Your Royal Highness has also been to the West Sea a few times before, and at that time I thought, what kind of husband will such a beautiful and noble goddess marry in the future." But I never imagined that she would marry Emperor Donghua! I still haven't figured it out. Sister Qing'er, you are the best at observing words and feelings, and you served by the emperor's side yesterday, does the emperor really love His Royal Highness as rumored? ”
The woman who was called Qing'er said with an exaggerated expression: "What? The emperor's behavior was not like treating his wife at all, he was clearly taking care of His Royal Highness Feng Jiu like a daughter, and even looking at her eyes was full of doting. Don't say you can't figure it out, I don't think there are many people in heaven and on earth who can figure it out.
The emperor loves His Royal Highness Fengjiu so much, I'm afraid that any woman will be moved to tears when she sees it. As he spoke, he really looked like he was going to wipe away his tears.
The woman who had just spoken suddenly remembered something, and asked a few people next to her in a low voice, "At the banquet yesterday, I saw that when the second princess went out after playing the gonghou, her eyes seemed to be red, you say, the princess is ......" She didn't dare to say the latter words, looking at the faces of the few people next to her, first inexplicable, then clear, and then a little frightened.
The thin voice Xian'e stretched out her hand to silence her, and said softly: "Be careful, how arrogant the second princess is on weekdays, if this word spreads, I'm afraid we will all be demoted." Also, now all over the world and all over the world are respectfully calling His Royal Highness the 'Emperor and Queen', which is very respectful, so everyone should be careful not to talk about it. She looked around cautiously, waved her hand, and the group walked out of the garden as quickly as if nothing had happened.
Yaoyue in the clam listened to this gossip silently with a burst of red and white on her face.
Probably because she likes the emperor, she is also used to wearing purple dresses every day. The day before yesterday, because I saw the emperor to avoid suspicion, and in order to show the softness of my daughter's family, I deliberately changed my clothes in color. As for lying in the clams, it is also a habit, the same is purple, people outside do not jump up to see her, they can't see her, when she has something to do and wants to be quiet, here is often the first choice.
At this moment, she frowned slightly, thinking about what Qing'er had just said. Without paying attention, another person walked under the clams.
The visitor cleared his throat, knocked on the clams of the clams, and said teasingly, "Are you sleeping in it?" Can you still sleep peacefully? ”
Yaoyue was silent for a while, turned over, jumped down, glanced at the visitor, and called "second brother".
Su Moye smiled at her teasingly, and said, "Purple Yarn Dream Shadow is a beautiful woman, would you like to go down to the pavilion to have a cup of tea together?" ”
Yaoyue was amused by him, turned around and entered the pavilion first.
Mo Shaohua took out the tea stove and a set of green glazed cups, and chatted with Yaoyue while making tea. After a while, he suddenly said, "But what do you want to ask me?" ”
Yaoyue's hand holding the teacup paused, but did not speak.
Su Moye glanced at the expression on her face that wanted to stop talking, lowered her head and adjusted the flames in the furnace, and continued: "I want to ask about the emperor and Feng Jiu." ”
Yaoyue raised her eyes and looked at him as if she was concentrating on tea, and after a long time, she said "um".
Mo Shao lifted the teapot and refilled a cup of tea for her.
"When you were a child, you also met Emperor Donghua. How did you notice how he was different from when you saw him before? ”
Mo Shao didn't say it, Yaoyue hadn't noticed it yet, but when she heard him say this, she really felt that the emperor she saw this time was indeed different from the appearance in her previous memory, but she couldn't tell what the difference was.
She thought for a while, raised her eyes to look at Su Moye, Mo Shao understood her inquiring gaze, smiled leisurely, put down the tea cup in her hand, and looked up into the distance, so it was a light and breezy chic.
"The most mysterious person in the world is nothing more than love. In the legends of the gods, Shaoyang Jun of Donghua Zifu has always been the most immortal who floats outside the borders of Sanqing and is far away from the red dust. He has lived like this for hundreds of thousands of years, what kind of beauty has never been seen, but only Feng Jiu made him move with red luan. If you insist on finding out a reason, you can only say that what he happens to like is her tonal temperament, and she is a toned person, he wants to like it, so he naturally likes it. As for why they like this tune, it's probably because they are in tune with each other. ”
Mo Shao's "Modulation Theory" back then, although the original intention was to help the emperor Yu Fengjiu embark on a crooked path, but it was a crooked hit, and she really opened her heavenly spirit Gai'er and matched her with the emperor. Afterwards, he realized that his communication was really a great wisdom. No matter how many reasons you list for "liking", in the final analysis, it is the person's unique "tune" that attracts you, and as for what "tune" is, it is probably his unique virtue.
His "Tone Theory" today initially made Yao Yue listen to the clouds. She thought quietly for a while before she understood what he meant.
"The meaning of the second brother is to let me let go of the emperor and no longer have to explore these causes and effects."
Mo Shao looked at Yaoyue with appreciation and nodded, "You have always been transparent. The sooner you let go of some things, the sooner you will be liberated. Now that you've seen it with your own eyes, there's no need to worry about it anymore. ”
Yaoyue's expression was a little lonely, and her voice was a little dry: "However, I am unwilling and don't want to let go." ”
Mo Shao put down the teacup in his hand and looked at her fixedly, and after a while, Fang sighed and said: "Although I knew that you admired the emperor in the past, you only said that it was reverence, and I didn't want to turn it into an obsession. Since he already has a wife and a lover, why are you obsessed with him? In the end, it's all in vain. ”
A few gorgeous small fish leisurely shuttled among the coral bushes at the bottom of the pavilion, swaying, like a game tactful. Yao Yue was stunned for a while, and she couldn't help but envy them for being so carefree and carefree.
"Second brother, can you put it down?" She muttered.
Mo Shao picked up the tea cup again, but his eyes passed through the tea foam, and he didn't know where it fell, and after a while, he said softly: "If there is fate, we can meet thousands of miles apart." If you don't have a chance, you won't know each other. I have no fate with her, and my original obsession was just asking for a result. Even if we see each other again, I will still help her get what she wants, as I did at the beginning. ”
Mo Shao's clouds were light and light, but it did not dissipate the haze in Yaoyue's heart.
After a long time, she seemed to have a firm idea in her heart, and said to him with a firm voice: "Second brother, discuss the battle with the Heavenly Clan, take me with you." ”
Nine heavens, in the palace of washing.
The prince's study is very lively at the moment, and a group of people are there to discuss political affairs.
Feng Jiu sat with the emperor on the idle couch next to him. She listened carefully to what they said, and at the same time she was confused.
If she wants to go to war, she will participate in the discussion of the war. However, Qingqiu is not good at war and does not raise soldiers, and there is no course related to the art of war in the sect, so he discusses the war with the generals with His Royal Highness the Prince, and she does not fully understand. After all, fighting a war is not the same as fighting. In particular, she couldn't read the formation map.
Most of the things related to the swords and soldiers I saw in the past were the battles of the emperors described when I read ancient history. Although it is wonderful, the real arrangement of troops and the use of strategy and tactics will not be recorded in detail in the history books. Feng Jiu had imagined the scenes of those famous battles countless times, as well as the emperor's calm command and invincible demeanor.
She was eager to experience the battlefield in person, in addition to loving fighting, she also had a lot of thoughts, that is, she hoped to feel the experience of the emperor, even if it was only in case.
She listened to what they said with a serious face, and silently wrote down what she didn't understand. Donghua leaned idly on the side, drinking tea while watching Feng Jiu's expression. A smile slowly welled up in his eyes. His Xiaobai has always been sensible and motivated, although there is a big "stunned" word written on his face at the moment, but he is still very beautiful.
