Chapter 751: Happiness Came Too Suddenly
Evading the guards in the courtyard, she finally got here, the room was very dark, there was no one else, but it was very warm, not like it had not been lived in for a long time.
It has been more than a month since she disappeared, and in a house where no one lives for more than a month, sandalwood can't stay for long.
Walking into the hall, everything is still familiar, green bamboo screen, desk, round table, back chair, even the vase placed in the Xuantai is still there, the bottle is the new plum blossom red and yellow in the imperial garden, I think it should be the maid in the palace.
She touched the portrait of her hanging on the wall, and tears welled up at the moment, and there was a poem in the lower left corner - drunk and delicate, and the wind was full of peony flowers.
The handwriting is Cang Rinchen's handwriting, and she doesn't know when the sentences were written, she reached out to touch the grinding marks, and felt the brushstrokes when she put down the pen, so soft.
Tears crossed the corners of his mouth, bitterness entered his throat, and he said to himself: "What are you doing with this after seeing that you have changed your thoughts?" β
originally thought that he would recognize herself, but when she lifted the veil, he thought that she was Yan'er and not Xia Yinhuan, she was extremely conflicted, she wanted him to know her identity, but she didn't want him to know.
Walking around the hall, looking at the furnishings, looking at the place where he once lived, the reunion after a long absence was not a joy but a thick one.
She doesn't know how to go in the future, whether she will draw a line with Cang Linchen from now on, or will she cowardly escape, or plan to hide in Lian Wangfu for the rest of her life?
The confused future, there is no light to illuminate the road ahead, and I don't know where to go.
After looking at almost everything in the room, she stood on the platform and looked at the plum blossoms in the vase, stunned, the plum blossoms were still fresh, very fresh.
She raised her hand and pinched one and put it in the palm of her hand, closed and released her five fingers, and then pinched and kneaded the flower with her index finger and thumb into a piece, like a small red ball.
Ye Xinghuan pushed open the door and saw this scene, he panted and pushed the door open, and when he saw Xia Yinhuan in the East Palace, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia Yinhuan, who heard the sound of the door opening, turned around vigilantly, and looked at Ye Xinghuan who was holding one hand on the edge of the door and said in surprise: "Why are you here?" β
She was also so frightened that she thought she had been discovered. Ye Xinghuan gasped for breath, and when his breath stabilized a little, he replied: "I heard that the imperial brother said that you went back to the Lian Palace, but I didn't catch up with you, and I thought you should go to the East Palace, so I ran over to take a look." β
Ye Xinghuan thought that if she didn't leave the palace, she would definitely go to the East Palace, after all, this is her home, if the palace is big, I am afraid that the East Palace will leave her with the most memories.
"Let's go back to King Lian's Mansion." Xia Yinhuan put the kneaded plum blossoms next to the vase, and he had already kneaded several in succession, becoming a pocket Lantern Festival.
"Did something happen?" Ye Xinghuan looked at her with a frown and asked, her eyes obviously hiding the melancholy of things.
So many things happened when she entered the palace, Ye Xinghuan was very worried about her, and she didn't know how to explain everything she witnessed.
Qiu Yue has only been in the palace for a few days, and even he doesn't believe that Cang Rinchen is empathetic and don't fall in love, how can she believe it?
"It's nothing, go back to Lian Wangfu." Xia Yinhuan didn't want to say more, and she didn't want to vomit out the bitter water in her stomach like a resentful woman, she just wanted to find a place to be quiet now.
Passing by, her figure gradually moved away, Ye Xinghuan reached out and grabbed her wrist, and couldn't help hugging her tightly, feeling sorry for her heart: "If you want to cry, cry, I'm Xinghuan, it's okay." β
His hand rested on the back of her head, holding her against her chest, giving her as much comfort as possible.
Xia Yinhuan didn't want to cry, but somehow, the tears fell down in a row, but she didn't cry, she just shed tears.
Not long after, the placket on his chest was already wet, and Xia Yinhuan didn't know why things had become like this, if she hadn't gone to Southern Xinjiang at that time, if she hadn't fallen off the cliff, if she hadn't ......
God seems to be playing tricks on her, the feelings that she has finally gained can finally be stabilized, but such a thing has happened again, she is no longer sure of Cang Linchen's intentions, and she is very confused about whether she should tell him her identity.
She remembered what he had said, and she remembered that once upon a time he had taken himself into his arms like this, and in the blink of an eye, he was no longer like the gray who was with her.
For a long time, no one bothered her, her eyes were already sour when she bit her lip, she cried for a long time, her heart seemed to be calm, and her chest was not so painful.
Only then did she raise her hand to touch the tears on her face, raised her eyes to look at Ye Xinghuan's worried face, and pretended to smile easily and said to him: "Okay, it's already good, let's go, thank you." β
Ye Xinghuan always relies on her when she is helpless, and stands by her side whenever and wherever she is, I have to say that Ye Xinghuan is a very good confidant for her.
Ye Xinghuan responded lightly, raised his hand to wipe away the obvious tears on her eyelids, and followed her out of the East Palace. Listening to her small sobs, he didn't feel pain.
The hateful thing is that all he can give him is comfort, even if he gives it to her, he doesn't want to reveal one of his thoughts at all, as long as he can look at her, he is satisfied with protecting her.
The next day, Cang Rinchen received a letter that the Dali Siqing had accepted bribes and released the court to be a repeat offender, and the evidence was conclusive, so he immediately ordered the seizure of the family property and dismissed the Dali Siqing.
For a while, everyone was in danger, and everyone knew very well that such a coincidence happened when Dali Siqing was about to return to his hometown, and it was clearly arranged.
Smart people can know who did it at a glance, but a few people dare to stand up for Dali Siqing, and Dali Siqing has no choice but to admit it when the evidence is conclusive.
The turmoil in the court continued, and in the next few days, several officials were suspected of corruption and risk. killed people and went to prison, and the court was silent, and they all understood that Cang Rinchen was really here this time, and some of them kept themselves and some secretly discussed countermeasures.
To implement the imperial examination system, the first thing to do is to clean up the government and revitalize the court, Cang Linchen only did the first step and felt a little powerless, today there are more and more twists and turns, and the vacancy in the court cannot be filled after the dismissal of many official positions, which is also a headache for him.
It was very late to deal with government affairs this day, and I reviewed one book after another, my eyes were dazzled, and I raised my hand and rubbed my eyebrows, only to feel extremely sour.
"Your Majesty, let's rest, it's not too late to deal with it tomorrow." Ande served tea, and he was worried about him when he saw that Cang Linchen was so tired.
Cang Rinchen took the tea and took a sip, put it on the desk and sighed, but shook his head, if he didn't deal with the affairs of the day, he would be in trouble in the future, and now he can only suffer himself, making the government and the opposition like that.
"By the way, how about the matter that asked you to investigate, the matter of King Lian." He was so busy that he almost forgot about the important things, and it was only after four or five days that he remembered that he had told Ander to investigate Ye Xinghuan.
"Oh." Ander also suddenly realized that he had planned to tell Cang Rinchen the results of his investigation that day, and he was busy meeting the Iron Cavalry General and had no time, so he ran aground.
After Cang Linchen reminded him of this, he thought about it and replied: "The slave has already sent someone to investigate, and the officers and soldiers guarding the city in the capital that day said that King Lian was going to go out of the city and had already arrived at the city gate, but he almost bumped into someone, it was a woman, and I don't know what the two said, so King Lian took the woman back to Beijing." As for Yan'er's matter, the slave learned that it was the Ministry of Rites who chose the concubine for King Lian, and the slave personally asked him about Yan'er, but he flatly denied that there was such a person. β
Ander was also shocked when he got these news, he hadn't done anything to bully the king before, but this time he was so bold, and he didn't know what Yan'er's identity was, so he would rather deceive the king and hide it.
Cang Rinchen only squinted slightly when he heard this, not surprised at all, as if everything was expected by him.
"Got it, there's no need to check this matter again." He said in a cold voice, took another sip of tea, and set the cup aside.
An Deyun didn't know what was going on in the fog, Cang Linchen had already opened another book and read it with all his attention.
The careful Ander noticed the faint smile on the corner of his mouth, which was even more inexplicable, and he looked solemn for a while and smiled without saying a word, and he couldn't guess what Cang Linchen was thinking.
"Your Majesty, the concubine sent lotus seed soup for Your Majesty." Qiu Yue still didn't know when she stood at the door, the green velvet and green bamboo uppers crossed the threshold and walked towards him, beside him was the palace maid Ling'er holding a tray, and what was placed inside was a Gu lotus seed soup.
In the past few days, the autumn moon is still coming at this time, and the lotus seed soup will be delivered on time every night, and Cang Linchen doesn't say anything, almost all of them are used to it.
Qiu Yueyu walked to the desk, took out the lotus seed soup from the tray and put it in front of him, which blessed her body and said: "Your Majesty rested earlier, and the concubine retreated." β
The greasy appearance in the imperial study that day has been subsided, and she has also learned to be obedient, knowing that taking her time and rushing to achieve it will only make Cang Rinchen disgusted.
Cang Rinchen glanced at the still steaming lotus seed soup in front of him, and looked at Qiu Yueyu's figure and walked to the door, so he pushed aside without much appetite, and instead instructed Ande: "The flying pigeon passed the book to tell the fallen leaves that there is no need to look for Yin Huan in the south of Xinjiang, let him come back." β
"Your Majesty, isn't that the queen ......" Ande didn't finish his words, he didn't dare to say everything, he wanted to say that he wouldn't never find out the news.
felt that the words were unlucky, so he had to swallow them again, staring at Cang Linchen but seeing that he was not half-joking, he was even more unpredictable.
"No need." Cang Linchen glanced at him, then lowered his head and flipped through the folds, his decision had his own reason.
The night breeze is very cool, and it is like a sharp knife on the face, it is already the weather of the first month, and the year is about to come to an end, and the cold wind is also extremely cold.
Qiu Yue leaned against the door tightly, listening to the movement in the hall, a smile gradually appeared on her cheeks, almost dancing excitedly.
Seeing her excited appearance, Ling'er hurriedly took her hand away from the temple gate, afraid that her happy cry would be noticed by Cang Rinchen.
"Ling'er, have you heard, Your Majesty will no longer send people to find the queen, which means that his heart is gradually coming here in this palace, right?" Leaving the imperial study, Qiu Yue was still at a loss for excitement, shaking Ling'er's arm, so excited that she almost cried.
She was still planning how to make Cang Rinchen treat her better, look at her a few more times, but she didn't expect happiness to come so suddenly.
Ling'er was not like her, but at this time she pondered: "Niangniang, it's not that the slave wants to pour cold water on you, Your Majesty shouldn't let go of the queen so quickly, Niangniang knows that Your Majesty is the one who is willing to die for the queen." β
Listening to Ling'er's words, the smile on the corner of Qiu Yueyu's mouth was not restrained, and it was already stiffened at the corner of her mouth, and she asked with a cold face, "What do you want to say?" β
How could she not have heard it, she had already heard those rumors in the palace, it was rumored that when King Wu coup d'Γ©tat, he threatened Cang Rinchen to kill Xia Yinhuan or kill him, but Cang Rinchen actually didn't say a word and really wanted to die to save Xia Yinhuan.
