Chapter 23 The Love of Chang'an

In the summer, the inner hall of Fengluan Palace has already provided a large piece of ice sculpture, and several small palace maids take turns to fan the queen in front of them, without stopping for a moment, but they still do not understand the queen's summer mood.

Since the queen returned to favor, the emperor has come to Fengluan Palace a lot more. At noon on this day, the emperor went down to the court, and he was going to come to the queen's palace to dine together, but it was already past noon, and the emperor was still not seen in the Fengluan Palace. The queen was already dressed neatly, and the people in the palace were ordered to arrange the dishes, but they couldn't wait for the emperor to come, and they couldn't help but be upset. She called Miaochun and whispered, "You go to Mingde Palace to see if the emperor has anything to delay." ”

Miaochun saw that the queen was already anxious, and hurriedly promised to go down.

Not long after Miaochun left, a figure suddenly flashed at the gate of Fengluan Palace, and the queen hurriedly got up to look, but the person who came was Cheng Dehai beside the emperor.

When the queen saw him coming alone, she knew that the emperor probably wouldn't come, so she said lightly, "The emperor is not coming?" ”

Cheng Dehai smiled respectfully, and said repeatedly, "The emperor has important matters to deal with, and I am afraid that I will not be able to accompany the queen to dine with today." ”

The queen's face sank slightly, and she sighed lightly, "This palace knows, you go down first." ”

Cheng Dehai bowed respectfully, and Fang slowly walked out of the palace gate.

The queen has long been accustomed to the emperor like this, but when she heard that he was dealing with political affairs, she had to start worrying about his body. Thinking of this, her eyes lit up, called Yuzhi, and said softly, "You pack these meals and go to Mingde Palace with the palace to see the emperor." ”

Yuzhi hurriedly smiled and agreed, took the basket box and put the meal in the same way, Fang Wanyan said, "Niangniang is really a good blue heart, the emperor doesn't know how happy he is to see it." ”

The queen's face turned red when she heard this, and she said with a smile, "The emperor works for state affairs day and night, and the palace should serve snacks for the emperor." ”

Yuzhi smiled all over her face, put on the basket, and went to Mingde Palace with the queen. Before he reached the door, he caught a glimpse of Miaochun who was about to return to the palace.

The queen smiled and said to Miaochun, "This palace is about to go to Mingde Palace to see the emperor, so you should come along." ”

Miaochun was stunned, looked up at the queen, there was clearly a bit of dodge in her eyes, she stared at the basket in Yuzhi's hand for a moment, and Fang slowly said, "Niangniang...... His Majesty...... Not in the palace......"

The queen's heart sank, and her smile instantly froze, "What does this mean?" ”

Hearing this, Miaochun's heart trembled, and even her voice weakened a few points, "The slave maid listened to the little eunuch of Mingde Palace...... The emperor just went to the Chonghua Palace......"

As soon as she heard the words "Chonghua Palace", the queen's heart was completely cold.

He really couldn't let go of Shen Changan, and even refused to snub her for half a point.

Thinking like this, the queen felt more and more that her actions were pathetic and ridiculous.

She turned around coldly, leaving Yuzhi and Miaochun behind her, and went into the dormitory alone.

In the Chonghua Palace, there are still peach blossoms blooming in the garden. It's already June, but the peach blossoms still don't thank you, and they really live up to Chu Luo's love for planting a peach forest for Chang'an.

The emperor got off the sedan chair and looked at the peach blossoms in his eyes, and his heart was full of thoughts. The face of the person does not know where to go, and the peach blossoms are still smiling in the spring breeze. At this moment, he missed the owner of this courtyard very much, and he couldn't wait to see her immediately. Thinking like this, the pace under my feet couldn't help but speed up a lot.

entered the hall, but only Xiao Shanzi and a few palace people were cleaning the courtyard.

As soon as Xiao Shanzi saw the emperor, he hurriedly led a group of people to kneel down to the emperor to say goodbye.

The emperor's heart was not here, so he only indifferently told them to get up, and hurriedly asked, "Is Concubine Xian inside?" ”

Xiao Shanzi was a little flustered, and couldn't help but blame himself for why he couldn't leave his master in the palace every time the emperor came, thinking like this, he couldn't help but answer, and said busily, "Concubine Xian Niangniang and Little Master Jiang went out together, and they should be back soon." ”

Hearing this, the emperor frowned and asked, "Which little master Jiang?" ”

When He Sheng saw the emperor asking, he whispered in his ear, "It's Jiang Cairen Jiang Xiaozhu of Xingyun Pavilion, who entered the palace during the draft last year. ”

When Chu Luo heard this, he vaguely remembered the existence of such a Jiang Cairen, but it was not very clear. In his impression, Chang'an seems to have never befriended anyone since he entered the palace, and now she has a playmate, but he doesn't know it, which shows that he is too cold to her these days. Thinking of this, Chu Luo couldn't help but blame himself in his heart, so he said, "Then I, just wait for her here." ”

Xiao Shanzi bowed down and hurriedly led the emperor into the hall.

The lingering fragrance in the Chonghua Hall is curling, and the tables and chairs carved from good sandalwood are meticulously carved with different patterns, and the delicate and gentle emotions belonging to the daughter's family are circulating everywhere. Near the window sash, there were a few pieces of rice paper on the rosewood table, and a few brushes resting on the inkstone, and the rice paper was drawn without exception a man as warm as jade, and his various expressions floated on the familiar xuanβ€”the way he pursed his lips and smiled, the way he frowned and pondered, and the way he looked lost were all vivid in her pen. Chu Luo looked at himself in the painting, and two lines of tears welled up from his eyes. He couldn't imagine what Chang'an was thinking when he painted this, as long as he thought about it, his heart ached. That kind of pain, when he spent the night with Li Shushen, Chang'an may have had it in his heart.

The breeze outside the window was blowing, blowing layers of tulle, and he could clearly hear the voice of a woman as clear as water. He looked sideways and saw her standing under the porch in a green coat, looking at him with tears in her eyes.

Without a moment's hesitation, he immediately rushed over and hugged her.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Wanran smiled, and quietly withdrew with the palace maid, and when she left, she also helped the two of them retreat from the palace people around them.

Chu Luo hugged Chang'an tightly, so urgent, he really felt her tears falling on his placket drop by drop, it was such a real touch.

Even though it was the love of youth, all kinds of misunderstandings and resentments were solved at this moment when the two embraced.

Chang'an is like this, she knows Chu Luo too well, and she understands that the man in front of her doesn't say a word, and she can also see him through completely. All the grievances she had suffered for so long, the number of sleepless nights she had experienced, were not worth mentioning at this moment.

As long as he can come, that's all enough.

He loved her, and she felt it so much.

The two sat next to each other and held hands.

He grabbed the back of her white hand and kissed it gently, and her eyes were her green clothes blowing in the wind, and his smile immediately appeared on his face, and he said softly, "I don't remember, Chang'an likes to wear this color." ”

In Chu Luo's impression, he was used to seeing Chang'an's peach-colored clothes, so when he entered the palace, the clothes he gave her were mostly peach. Now I see her dressed in green clothes, thin powder, no beads, and a pair of clear eyes looking forward to the light, which really has a few unique charms.

She smiled lowly, very lightly, "I didn't expect the emperor to come, so I didn't make up." This blue color was originally the emperor's favorite color to wear when he was in the mansion, so ......"

Chang'an didn't say any more, but Chu Luo already understood the meaning of her words.

He hugged her, kissed her lowly, and thought of the days in the palace a few years ago, he was still emotional, so he sighed abruptly, "In the past, when I was in the palace, I was also the most fond of cyan, but when I arrived in this palace, I no longer wore it." ”

Chang'an's heart trembled slightly when he heard this. It's only been two years since she entered the palace, but she felt that the stubborn boy who liked the mountains and rivers before had gradually drifted away from him, and she hadn't seen his idle side for a long time, and now Chu Luo seemed to be the emperor of the world. When Chang'an thought of this, he didn't know whether he should be happy or sad. She loves him very much, whether he is a free prince or an emperor through the ages, she loves him, and this has never changed.

After thinking about it, her slender fingers slowly covered Chu Luo's imperial robe, groping for the dragon pattern embroidered with precision stitches one by one, and said with a smile, "The emperor looks ......just as good in bright yellow," Before the words fell, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a delicate small embroidered sachet hanging from Chu Luo's waist. This sachet is very raw, and it doesn't look like Chu Luo's thing. She carefully identified that the stitches and threads were very similar to a woman's craftsmanship, and then looked closely, the face of the sachet was embroidered with red beans!

Red beans are born in the south, and a few branches are sent in spring. May you pick more, this thing is the most lovely.

This thing is the most lovely.

Chang'an's movements froze, and his gaze suddenly became cold.

"Which master's craft is this? It's very delicate. ”

Chu Luo's face sank slightly when he heard this, he fixed his head, took off the sachet on his waist, and said softly, "It was given to me by the queen." I had been sick a few days ago, so she put mugwort leaves in a sachet and gave them to me. ”

Hearing Chu Luo talk about his illness, Chang'an's heart suddenly lifted, and he hurriedly asked, "Then the emperor is better now?" ”

Chu Luo saw that she didn't mean to be angry again, so he smiled comfortably and said, "It's completely fine." ”

"Now that it's good, there's no need to wear this kind of thing on your body." After that, Chang'an stretched out his hand and snatched the sachet in Chu Luo's hand, played with it in his hand, and said with a smile, "This sachet of the queen will be given to me." ”

Chu Luo bowed his head gently, leaned closer to her, and smiled seductively, "This is for you." So what can Chang'an give to me? After that, he glanced at Shu Xuan on the table, and said with a smile, "Don't you want to use these portraits of me?" ”

Chang An looked at Shu Xuan on the table, his face was slightly red, and he dodged with a smile, "I didn't say I wanted to give it to you." The emperor is so self-inflicted. ”

The smile on the corner of Chu Luo's lips became thicker and thicker, and he pulled Chang'an in front of him, "If I want it, will you give it to you?" ”

The corners of Chang'an's mouth raised, and he smiled very playfully, "One thing for another, Chang'an took the emperor's sachet, so naturally he will return a sachet to the emperor." ”

"Oh?" Chu Luo raised his eyebrows and smiled as usual, "Then I'll wait." ”
