Chapter 435: Advice to the Faint King
She lost.
Her always sensitive sense of taste became sluggish due to too much medicine, so she lost.
Although such a situation was expected, Zhong Weiwei was still uncontrollably sad and wanted to cry.
This kind of pain made her worse than a slap in the face.
Her only reliance, the talent she had inherited from her parents, was ruined.
Zhong Weiwei wanted to laugh, but two big tears fell out.
She didn't want Chonghua to find out, so she quickly got up: "I suddenly remembered that there is another kind of tea, Your Majesty hasn't tasted it yet, so I'll go get it." ”
Hurriedly walked to the back and stood by the cage and wept silently.
Chonghua saw it in his eyes and wanted to hug her and comfort her, but he knew that she didn't want him to see her embarrassment, so he could only sit silently and wait.
Xiaotang once told him that the reason why Zhong Weiwei chose to leave him was because she didn't want him to see her when she was seriously ill, and he didn't want him to see her sick, weak, haggard, incontinent, and withered.
She was so proud that her unique talent was taken away by a serious illness, and most likely she didn't want him to see her embarrassment and hesitation.
Chonghua is like sitting on pins and needles, not only has to prick up his ears and squint his eyes to keep eavesdropping on Zhong Weiwei's movements, ready to arrive as soon as she needs him, but also pretend that nothing has happened, so as not to let her know that he has found out.
Zhong Weiwei only cried for a while and then didn't cry, it's a big deal that she no longer covets her tongue except for medicine, and she doesn't eat anything fragrant and spicy.
She wiped a handful of tears and walked out with tea cakes in her arms, smiling like a flower: "Please Your Majesty cook tea for me." ”
Chonghua couldn't ask for it, washed his hands diligently, and racked his brains to tell a few dry jokes that were not funny at all.
Zhong Weiwei laughed cooperatively, he was relieved, and he also followed the silly music.
Xiaotang and Brother Liang hid in the corner and drew mushrooms, looked at the two stupid people, and muttered in a low voice: "It's so silly to laugh, they both treat each other as fools." ”
The parting came soon, and before dawn, Chonghua woke up.
He hugged Zhong Weiwei tightly in the faint light, eager to integrate his bones and blood into her body and never be separated from her again.
Zhong Weiwei actually couldn't close her eyes all night, but she pretended to be asleep and let Chonghua hug her.
I don't want to look back, I don't want to move, I don't want to open my eyes, I don't want to say goodbye.
Chonghua kept holding her, motionless, he knew that she was not asleep, he knew that she was awake.
He wanted her to turn around and hug him, kiss him, say goodbye to him happily, and be reluctant to let him go.
But I know that after all, it's just a luxury.
He kept his eyes open until dawn, and Li Anren whispered to him outside.
After urging over and over again, he had to get up quietly, dress, wash, comb his hair, and wait.
After all, he couldn't wait for Zhong Weiwei to turn back.
He walked over, hugged her gently, and whispered, "Ah Wei, I'm leaving, you have to be obedient, you have to be obedient, I will come back." ”
Then he didn't dare to look back and strode out.
Zhong Weiwei's long and comfortable eyelashes moved lightly a few times, and two large tears slipped down the corners of his eyes, soaking the pillow.
Aunt Qing was waiting outside with her hand in hand, and when she heard the door ringing, she looked behind Chonghua expectantly, hoping to see Zhong Weiwei.
Chonghua tried to make his expression look happier, and he reached out to lead him again: "Let's go." ”
looked at the door stubbornly again: "What about Aunt Wei?" I want her to send me, and she hasn't said goodbye to me yet. ”
Chonghua squatted down and begged him in a low voice: "Aunt Wei is not in good health, she is sick, and she is not awake, let's not quarrel with her."
Let her sleep well, let's go back early, find her medicine, and get her back early, okay? ”
He Lingyi, he didn't tell Zhong Weiwei about He Lingyi after all, and not letting these unpleasant things disturb her is also a kind of love.
His eyelids drooped again with red circles, and he reluctantly followed him out.
All the entourage has been put in place, and Empress Dowager Wei has also gone to Fengyuan.
King Qi was dressed in a military uniform, swept away his previous languishing appearance, and came over to take over with a high spirit: "Your Majesty, everyone is in place, just waiting for your order." ”
No matter how bad Chonghua's mood is, he has to pretend to be kind and friendly in front of everyone.
patted King Qi on the shoulder, said a few words of hard work, and then went to greet Empress Dowager Wei.
Empress Dowager Wei was so angry that her voice was not small: "Where's Xiao Zhong?" Why didn't you see her come to see you? I've been thinking about her, but unfortunately I haven't had a chance to see her these days.
I thought I would say goodbye this morning, how could I see it, but I didn't know that she still refused to show up. ”
Chonghua said calmly: "Ah Wei is not in good health, she is sick, and she has been saying that she wants to go to greet the queen mother."
I didn't let her go, for fear that she would pass her illness to her mother, which would be a great unfilial piety. ”
Empress Dowager Wei suddenly realized: "It turned out that she was sick, did you pass on the imperial doctor?" Does it matter? I still have a few old ginseng plants there for her to use. ”
Chonghua was a little impatient: "She can't use this for her illness, so the queen mother can keep it for herself." ”
Empress Dowager Wei said angrily: "You kid, can you use it, you leave it to her first, how can you refuse it immediately?" ”
She paused, looked at the ministers who were with her, and said with a smile: "After all, Xiao Zhong will stay here in the future, and he can't go back to the capital, so it's always good to leave a little more good medicine for her to spare." ”
Full of temptation.
Chonghua curled the corners of his lips and smiled: "Who said she couldn't go back?" When she thoroughly studied the production method of black tea, she naturally went back. ”
Empress Dowager Wei said bitterly: "Since you want to go back, why did the emperor build a palace for her here?"
Isn't it a waste to work hard and lose money, and if it will be useless in the future?
Now that the treasury is empty and the people's livelihood is difficult, isn't Your Majesty going to be that lustful and forgetful faint king? ”
He played with her as a mother and son, and she played with him to the end.
played the image of this strict mother in public, for his good, advised him, and showed everyone all his.
robbed her money to please Zhong Weiwei, and wanted her to swallow her anger and not say a word?
Many people heard Empress Dowager Wei's words, and several imperial historians were immediately eager to try, ready to come to a scene of admonishing the faint monarch in public.
Chonghua had already prepared, so he didn't take this trick seriously at all, and said lightly: "It's not the palace, but the Fangming Pavilion."
The area around Jiujun Mountain is rich in black tea, so I just asked the tea masters from the Fangdi Pavilion to come and take a look and study the tea ceremony with Ah Wei. ”
He looked around and looked warnly at the few eager imperial histories: "The tea ceremony exchange meeting between the Kingdom of Li and Dongling, I also plan to hold it here. ”
Empress Dowager Wei sneered secretly: "At that time, will Your Majesty come here to watch the battle in person?" ”
Chonghua said in surprise: "Why did the queen mother say this? It's as if I'm a faint king.
This time I went to Wangchuan to meet the alliance, for the sake of the national economy and people's livelihood, but also to fulfill filial piety, fulfill the last wish of the imperial father, and let the queen mother see the great rivers and mountains of my Dali.
As for the tea ceremony, I don't have to come in person. (To be continued.) )
