Chapter 18: Drunken Red Wine
The news that Lin'an Huayan won the nine gambling gods in the Shunfang gambling house and won the world's top gambling skills swept the entire Southern Chu capital like a storm, and the news spread rapidly to the Quartet outside Beijing.
On the second day, the old, weak, women and children in the capital of Nanchu all knew about it.
The teahouse restaurant arranged the book for the first time, and the storyteller was talking about the strange thing that moved the world yesterday in the morning, and the teahouse restaurant was full of friends in the early morning, and it was very crowded.
In the early days, although all the civil and military officials knew about yesterday's events, the officials of the Yushitai looked at their noses and noses, and none of them folded their bullets to impeach this matter, and they did not mention a word, which made the rest of the officials of the ministries ring the alarm in their hearts.
After the early court, the princes and princes beside the emperor came to pass the word, saying that the emperor invited His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come over.
Yun Chi straightened the sleeves of his robe, nodded, and went to the emperor's main hall, the emperor's bedroom.
Entering the inner hall, a strong smell of medicine came to his face, the emperor was lying on the dragon bed, leaning on a bright yellow pillow behind his back, closing his eyes to recuperate, hearing the sound of footsteps, he opened his eyes and looked at Yun Chi.
The light in the hall is bright, Yun Chi is dressed in a cyan brocade robe, walking slowly, his figure is slender and straight, and the end is like the breeze and white clouds flowing down from the nine heavens, the sun is bright and the moon is bright.
The emperor looked at him, his eyes fluttering.
Yun Chi came to the front and bowed his hand, "Father, you called your son, is there something wrong?" ”
The emperor's eyes paused for a moment, gradually cleared up, nodded, and said to him, "I heard that the youngest daughter of the Lin'an Hua family entered Beijing the day before yesterday, and went to the Shunfang gambling house yesterday, killing all sides, and her gambling skills are the best in the world, and even the nine gambling gods have won, but is there such a thing?" ”
Yun Chi was not surprised that the emperor already knew about this matter, and nodded, "There is such a thing." ”
The Emperor stared at him and asked, "Today, the Imperial Observatory has impeached this matter?" ”
Yun Chi shook his head, "Erchen sent a message to all the lords of the Imperial Historical Observatory yesterday, so no one has impeached him. ”
When the emperor heard this, he patted the bright yellow futon and said angrily, "With your words, you let Yu Shitai suppress this matter?" If you can suppress the imperial history platform and suppress the whispers of hundreds of officials in the court, can you also block the mouths of the world? ”
Yun Chi said unhurriedly, "Erchen doesn't need to block the mouths of the world, he just needs the civil and military officials to shut up." ”
When the emperor heard this, he was even more furious, "It is easy for you to control civil and military officials with one hand, but do you know how many people in this world will say that my royal family wants to marry such a daughter-in-law and become the crown princess?" Mixed in the market, learn from the left side of the door, regardless of the etiquette and etiquette, there is no half of virtuous and virtuous virtue, in the future, how to be a model of women in the world? ”
Yun Chi smiled idly and looked at the emperor calmly and coldly, "The queen mother is a famous lady, understands etiquette, abides by the discipline of the lady, is virtuous and virtuous, gentle and dignified, and is really a model of the mother's etiquette in the world." But so what? Placed in the deep courtyard of this palace, the palace wall Biwari is praised, but this model has not been scattered in dust early? How long has she been a model in the world? Does the father think that the son will marry a woman like the queen mother to follow in the footsteps of the queen mother and the emperor? ”
The emperor's face turned pale when he heard this, and his eyes were full of anger swept by, and he raised his finger to point at Yun Chi, and after a while, he said angrily, "You...... Thou hast spoken vainly of thy mother and thy mother...... You unfilial son! ”
Yun Chi smiled, "Father, how many years have passed, you can't get out, you can't spare yourself, you can't let go of your heart knot." Now, do you still want your sons to be like you? Shu Erchen can't do it! Since Lin'an Huayan has been chosen by me, she is my crown princess, and she will never be changed, and neither will her father. ”
The emperor's fingers trembled with anger, his face trembled, and after a while, he shouted angrily, "You...... Get out of here! ”
Yun Chi arched his hand, "The son of the minister retreated, and the father and emperor carefully turned around." After speaking, he turned around and walked out of the emperor's main hall.
Behind him, the sound of the Emperor gasping for breath was no longer audible as he walked away.
Hua Yan woke up, and it was not early.
The people of the Wuwei Hou Mansion were instructed by Su Ziqi yesterday to come to the East Palace to send wine to Hua Yan. When the butler Fu saw the man holding a jar of drunken red face, he was shocked and shocked, and wanted to shirk it, but he felt that this matter was not something he could do, after all, it was something sent to the East Palace by the prince, although it was for the crown princess, but it could not be easily pushed.
He struggled for a while, but still brought the person who delivered the wine to Xiyuan.
Hua Yan is having breakfast.
Fu Guan came with someone and said at the door of the hall, "Crown Princess, the prince of the Marquis of Wuwei sent someone to bring you a jar of good wine, and instructed that the person who sent the wine would be handed over to you in person, and the old slave led the people over." You see? ”
Hua Yan was stunned, Su Zi gave her wine?
Hearing this, Qiu Yue walked out of the inner room quickly, glanced under the eaves, and the little guy who followed behind the butler Fu was dark-skinned and inconspicuous, holding a wine jar in his arms, although it was far away, but he vaguely smelled the strong aroma of wine. She glanced at it, walked back to the back room, and nodded to Hua Yan, "The slave smells it, it is an excellent wine, but I don't know what kind of wine it is, in short, it has not opened the altar yet, and it smells very fragrant from a long distance." ”
Hua Yan glanced out of the window, and also saw the little guy and the wine in his arms, and asked with a smile, "What do you have to say?" ”
The little guy heard it clearly, and replied outside the house, "The prince didn't say anything, only said that the villain would bring the wine to the princess in person." ”
Hua Yan raised her eyebrows and asked, "What's the name of the wine?" ”
The little guy replied, "Drunk! ”
Drunk? Hua Yan's eyebrows moved slightly, she stared for a moment, smiled lightly, nodded, and turned to the side, "Qiu Yue, go and get the wine." After the words fell, he said to the outside world, "Thank you for me, your son-in-law, and I will accept the wine." ”
Qiu Yue walked outside in response and took the wine in the little girl's arms, getting closer, the aroma of the wine was stronger, she couldn't help but blurt out, "It's really good wine!" ”
The little maid raised his eyes and glanced at Qiu Yue, and bowed his hand inside, "The princess has no more orders, and the villain has returned to the house to resume his life." ”
Hua Yan let out an "um".
Seeing that Hua Yan happily accepted the wine, Steward Fu's face changed a few times, he wanted to say something, but he didn't speak, and when he saw the little guy say goodbye, he also retired and led people out of Phoenix West Garden.
Sending away the little guy who sent the wine, the butler Fu commanded the people around him with an extremely pale face, "Go, go quickly, tell Your Highness, just say that just now the son beheaded the prince and ordered someone to send a drunken face to the princess, the princess ...... I took it. ”
The man hurriedly responded and hurriedly ran out of the East Palace.
Yesterday's envoy to the small country of Fanbang was not decided, and after Yun Chi left the emperor's main hall, he still went to Zongzheng Temple.
The little servant in the East Palace entered the Zongzheng Temple, and when he saw the little eunuch Xiao Zhongzi waiting with the prince, he hurriedly told him the news sent by the Fu housekeeper.
Xiao Zhongzi's face also changed after hearing this, he stomped his feet and cursed in a low voice, "This son beheads the son!" After speaking, he hurriedly ran into the hall and whispered to Yun Chi about the matter.
Yun Chi's eyes sank suddenly, and his face became a little colder.
Drunk? Su Ziqi actually took out the dusty drunken red face and sent it to the East Palace to Hua Yan in such a grand manner, and she even accepted it!
Yun Chi's body was warm and cool, which made the warmth of the inner hall of Zongzheng Temple disperse. Everyone in the royal family looked at Yun Chi, and when they saw his suddenly changing expression, they all guessed that something was going on! Could it be that the small country of Fanbang is rioting so soon? If this is the case, it is really a tricky thing for the messenger to do so before he has made up his mind.
Everyone guessed solemnly, Yun Chi Huoran got up and said to everyone, "Today's consultation will make it stand up in advance. After speaking, he walked out of Zongzheng Temple quickly.
Everyone looked at each other and nodded in unison.
After leaving Zongzheng Temple, Yun Chi instructed, "Prepare the car and go home." ”
Xiao Zhongzi hurriedly gave the order quickly, and the honor guard was cleaned up in an instant after receiving the order. After Yun Chi got into the carriage, the escort team quickly escorted his carriage back to the East Palace.
Hua Yan looked at the jar of wine on the table, this wine had just been brought in by Qiu Yue, and before it was opened, the aroma of the wine was strong. She sniffed the aroma of wine and praised, "It's really a good wine!" ”
Qiu Yue also nodded, "It's really an excellent wine." The words fell, and he wondered, "Why is such a good wine, I haven't heard of its fame?" ”
A hint of thought welled up in the depths of Hua Yan's eyebrows, and she turned her head to ask the other grandmother, "Is there a good glass wine cup in the East Palace?" ”
Mama Fang nodded, "Back to the crown princess, yes." ”
Hua Yan said, "Go and get it, taste this kind of wine, you should use a good glass cup." ”
Mama Fang lowered her head and went immediately. After a while, I brought the glass cup.
Hua Yan instructed Qiu Yue to open the wine jar and poured a full glass of the glass jar, she looked at the transparent wine under the glow of the glass jar, the color was like Jiaoxia, nodded, and admired, "It is worthy of the name Drunken Hongyan." ”
After speaking, she picked up the glass cup, raised her head and drank it all, her mouth was fragrant, and the aftertaste was endless, which was intoxicating.
Qiu Yue pursed her lips, "Miss, I want to drink it too." ”
Hua Yan chuckled, "You're also a little glutton!" After speaking, he nodded to her, "You come by yourself." ”
Qiu Yue immediately sat down, took a glass jar, picked up the wine jar, and poured a full one for herself.
The scorching sun of early summer shone into the house, the master and servant sat across the table, the breakfast on the table had not yet used a few sips, you and I had a lamp, but the jar of wine in front of me drank most of it.
The smell of wine couldn't stop it from wafting out of the house, making Mama Fang and the servants of the East Palace all drunk.
