Yin Zhen listened to Concubine De's words, frowned slightly, and had already quietly dissolved into invisibility, smiled slightly at this time, and said lightly: "Erchen naturally understands." E-Niang's words have also been remembered by Erchen. However, in the future, Erchen did not make too far-reaching plans, and only wanted to do a few tricky errands in front of him one by one. As for the rest, Erchen has his own chapter in his heart, and Eniang doesn't have to worry so much about Erchen. ”

After a pause, he said: "It's the fourteenth brother Yinyu, I really need you to take the opportunity to talk to him." ”

"Erchen went south for disaster relief this time, and everywhere he went, the people were not happy. Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road. Huizhou officials colluded with salt merchants, which caused the local people to bear heavy taxes, so that after the heavy damage of the flood, there were fleeing people everywhere, and mothers and women who sold their children and daughters on the roadside abounded. And the upward and downward effects, the corruption of local officials is inextricably linked with Lao Jiu and Lao Shi in private. ”

"Please also ask Eniang, to admonish my brother. He has always disliked me, but he shouldn't have been with tigers and wolves for a long time. Eniang, do you think this is the reason? ”

Concubine De heard Yinzhen's words turn around, and directly mentioned to herself the disaster in Anhui in the south, and pointed the finger at the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother for conniving with his subordinates to collude with local officials and businessmen, and even gave it to Yinzhen a little, and she couldn't help but be shocked.

The thing she admonished Yinzhen just now, when compared with this matter, suddenly seemed as light as a feather, and it was not worth mentioning.

Concubine De was secretly surprised in her heart, but she just forcibly suppressed the unhappiness in her heart, and said quietly: "Oh? How could such a thing be? I think it's also because your brother is young and ignorant, he doesn't understand the rights and wrongs, and he doesn't understand what is going on at all, and he was led astray by those two elder brothers......"

Seeing that Yinzhen did not answer, Concubine De secretly thought in her heart, and secretly resented the eldest son in front of her, probably influenced by the queen in Changchun Palace, not only now seems to be more and more estranged from herself. Now, the child's inner temperament is becoming more and more stubborn.

Concubine De suppressed a breath of anger in her heart, and the expression on her face couldn't help but become solemn, half instructed, half pressured: "Sibei Jin, in the future, if your emperor Ama knows about this matter and asks for a while, don't you give your brother out." ”

Yin Zhen smiled faintly and said, "This Eniang doesn't need to tell her son, how can her son act like this." E-Niang knows it in her own heart, so it's okay. One day when I see Yinyu, as long as he doesn't avoid me, I will talk to him well. ”

Only then did Concubine De settle down and said infinitely deeply: "That's good." E-Niang knows that you are a caring person. ”

***

In October, the morning light day after day seems to come later and later as the autumn colors deepen and the forests are dyed.

Before dawn, Mu Lan stepped on the dew of the autumn morning trail, along an oblique winding path on the shore of Taiye Lake, and under the eyes of Wu Sanbian who followed him all the way, he hurried all the way back to the dining room according to his guidance.

I didn't intend to talk all night, but I didn't know that I didn't expect to meet my fellow villagers, and there were so many topics that the two of them had in common.

In the middle of the night, the two of them walked and stopped in the wind for a long circle along a pool of still water in Taiye Lake.

I really couldn't think of a good way, and my feet were tired, so I sat down and rested on the long table of the stone boat in a sheltered place hidden in the depths of a bamboo forest and repaired by the lake.

I think no one has been here for a long time, it is very secluded, and the scenery is very unique.

Under the quiet moonlit night, the sparkling lake light and the velvety twilight reflect each other, and three or two stars hang in the sky, twinkling and twinking, echoing each other from afar.

Because Wu Sanbian was used to patrolling and walking the roads in this area, and knew that even the guards who were guarding the depths of the lake rarely came, so he was relieved and boldly built a small bonfire.

Biyi was close to early winter, the bonfire was lit, and the two of them sat in front of them, under the warm baking, so that they didn't feel that the long night was too cold.

In this way, while roasting the bonfire relatively closely, we chatted about our hometown.

Chatting and chatting, Mu Lan only felt that her eyelids were heavy, although she secretly pinched her arms and wrists under the cloak in order to cheer up, but as the night deepened little by little, the orange bonfire in front of her slowly turned into a warm warmth that was swaying in the wind.

Wu San is on duty in shifts on weekdays, and as long as he is vigilant at this time, he can easily dispel his sleepiness.

And at this time, he unexpectedly met the girl who once made him unforgettable, and there was not even a trace of sleep.

Looking at the girl in front of him, in front of the bonfire where the flames jumped and jumped, and his eyes were as pure as a pool of pond water, with a smile and infinite satisfaction, he told him that the lake in front of him was like the holy water lake of his hometown, when he couldn't remember, he said something casually, attracting the girl in front of him, the face like a beautiful picture on the picture scroll, suddenly smiled at him, bringing a burst of laughter like a silver bell to this quiet night.

Hearing this beautiful laughter, his index finger just reached to his lips, and he couldn't bear it, and one hand instantly turned into a posture of covering his mouth and yawning.

Afraid of disturbing the lightness in his heart, a slap pretended to hover between his mouth and nose, and he was stunned for a long time.

Anyway, this stone workshop is separated from the outside world by two, and the sound is muffled and small.

Such a beautiful moonlight, such a beautiful lake, such a beautiful girl.

He looked at the girl's delicate face, which was dyed with a layer of smoke and haze, and a seed that had been buried in his heart for a long time seemed to have sprouted little by little.

This seed, I can't tell when, was quietly planted in my heart.

I can't tell, it's from the first time we met, and after that time I can't forget, I can't sleep alone every night?

Or that time, when I was on duty at Qianqingmen at night, I was caught by the princess on a business trip, and when I saw that it was her, the unexpected escort that shocked my heart?

I can't tell what it is, and I can't tell what is going on in my heart, nervous and excited, calm and cautious?

But what does it matter?

Just like at this time, looking at the girl in front of her, she was so sleepy that she opened her eyes again and again, fighting with the sleepy insects one by one, but finally like a mermaid, the corners of her light lips moved lightly twice, as if she spit out a string of colorless foam at the bottom of the sea, and then leaned against the wall and fell asleep.

Really, I don't understand what happened to me, so what does it matter?

As long as you can do this, quietly guarding her, even if you don't say a word, it's beautiful.

I really hope that I can be by her side for the rest of my life.

I really want to ask the sky—is that okay?
