Text: The world should be unpredictable

I?

Ye Yanxing raised his eyebrows, is the young man with a beautiful face in front of him the young man?

As soon as Jiang Er heard this man's words, he immediately knelt down with several guards, and his body trembled like chaff when he thought of his rude words just now. Breaking free of the guards, Zhou Fufeng drank a lot of wine, left the support of others, walked towards Ye Yan with a swaying figure, stretched out his hand to hold him, "I'm asking you, who are you?" ”

Ye Yanxing moved away slightly, staggered his hand, looked elsewhere, and heard the path kneeling beside him urging the voice to say that the son should salute quickly. Ye Yanxing let out an inaudible snort, he knelt down for a mere mortal for the heavenly fox? glanced at Zhou Fufeng contemptuously, compared with Zhou Yanzhi, it was really far behind, and it was in vain.

Zhou Fufeng was drunk and made a vague sound, and he could vaguely hear the fragments, which were nothing more than rude words.

Jiang Er looked at Ye Yanxing's uncaring attitude, and was anxious, and hurriedly spoke: "Emperor Qi, my son-in-law's name is Ye Yanxing, and he is from the Ming Palace. ”

"Ye Yanxing, tobacco Xing, flattering Yanxing, is really as good as its name." Zhou Fufeng looked excited, looked at Ye Yanxing and muttered, "Is there a person in the Ming Palace?" It turns out that the emperor is also a person in this way. "Such a beautiful woman with outstanding demeanor stays in the mansion, and she can't be a servant, that is the person who serves in the backyard. This person is just like what the book says, red and white, covered with three thousand green silks, and at a glance he knows that he is not the posture of the world, and he is an immortal in the sky. I couldn't help but think about how beautiful it would be for the person in front of me to linger in bed, but I suddenly became angry, and I had never been so jealous of Zhou Yanzhi. looked at the cold Ye Yanxing with hot eyes, no longer easily offended, afraid that he would be afraid to dodge.

Although I don't know what kind of "this way" he is talking about, no matter what he does, with his actions today, comparing himself with Zhou Yanzhi is self-inflicted. Ye Yanxing turned around with his sleeves brushed his sleeves, avoiding the disgusting gaze, and said coldly: "It is more profound, the prince's guest status is noble, why don't you go and ask him to go down and rest." ”

Hearing this, the guard was suddenly stunned for a moment, as if it was not the well-known prisoner in front of him who spoke, but the Ming prince himself, his demeanor and tone were so similar, and even the words he said were almost the same. When he returned to his senses and saw the man far away, he grabbed the emperor who was still going to pursue him, and walked all the way out of the house.

"My son, how can you be so bold, that's the emperor, you don't bow when you see the emperor." Jiang Er mixed Ye Yanxing's bath bucket with cold water, "Fortunately, the emperor is very drunk, otherwise he would definitely punish us." ”

"I've seen the man's eyes." Ye Yanxing lay on the edge of the barrel and stretched out his fingers to stir the water surface, and the water surface swirled out a small whirlpool with his slender white fingers, scattering circles of ripples against the water patterns created by Jiang Er. "I don't like it."

Feeling Ye Yanxing's depression, Jiang Er thoughtfully did not mention the emperor, but instead said a lot of funny things that Ye Yanxing liked. After serving for many days, Jiang Er has already felt that Ye Yanxing is a rich son who is carefully protected, with extensive knowledge and gentle elegance, and his joys, angers, sorrows and joys are all exposed in his face and not hidden in his heart, unlike their humble status, which has cultivated the ability to observe words and emotions and figure out the meaning of the superior since childhood.

Jiang Er sighed softly, this ability, Ye Yanxing can't do it, in fact, he doesn't need it.

Zhou Yanzhi turned the white jade wrench between his fingers, distracting his thoughts from the strong disobedience he felt, where had changed. As usual, he guided the situation, and the courtiers in the room all said yes, and the emperor sat on the ninety-five throne and nodded and said that King Ming was the master and reported to King Ming.

Zhou Fufeng is a little different. The emperor, who used to ask questions, was unusually silent today. Zhou Yanzhi looked at the emperor who had lost his mind, his face was as usual and even ruddy, it should not be a disease, it must be different if he is so obedient.

As expected, before Zhou Yanzhi stepped out of the palace gate, he heard the footsteps of someone running in a hurry from a distance, Wu'er knelt in front of him and said: "Prince Ming stays, the emperor invites the prince Wanzhen Lou to talk." ”

"Lead the way."

The treasures hidden in the Wanzhen Tower, like its name, are rare treasures accumulated by the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty for several generations and hundreds of years. was introduced into the building, and Zhou Yan saw that Zhou Fufeng behind the case was concentrating on reading.

Wu'er walked to the emperor's side and touched it carelessly, Zhou Fufeng woke up and looked at Zhou Yanzhi in front of him.

"Uncle Huang is here, Wu'er serves tea, and there is smoke on the fog sent by the new commander of Luoyun Dao."

"Emperor Xie, but the tea that wants to come to the Taoist is very rare, so this king won't drink it."

"This is what Uncle Huang said, don't regret it, Wu'er changed the sand and white tea of Da Heijin." Zhou Fufeng changed the tea briskly, if he wasn't bent on pleasing him, he would definitely not mention sharing the words on the fog. "Speaking of Luoyun Dao Chang, it is really powerful, and all of the treasures sent into the palace are treasures, and I feel comfortable every time I use it, and I have not been sick for many years."

Zhou Fufeng held the book in his hand with both hands, "Uncle Huang has read this book?" ”

"Self-dang, the ancestors of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the anecdote of Luoxia Immortal Mountain."

"I have loved these fairy stories since I was a child, especially this anecdote, every time I see it, I always think about what kind of person it will be, and the queen mother looks at me obsessedly, telling me that it is just an extension of the dream of the ancestors is not real, there is no such thing in the world, I have been lost for a long time after listening to it."

Zhou Yanzhi saw him carefully holding the book, and his heart was clear.

"Hairpin green silk sideburns, sleeping beauty knees, Uncle Huang, you say, is this an enviable beauty in the world?"

"That's true." Zhou Yanzhi's face was not revealed, and he was a little annoyed in his heart about Ye Yanxing sneaking out of the side hall again.

"Yesterday's birthday banquet, I was fortunate to meet the people in the emperor's uncle's mansion, and I will never forget it." Seeing Zhou Yanzhi's expression as usual, he boldly opened his mouth, "I saw that person was cold, and I didn't want to force him with my identity, so in order to show that I cared about him, I wanted to formally discuss this person with Uncle Huang." ”

Zhou Yanzhi frowned and was a little embarrassed, after all, according to the plan, this Ye Yanxing was going to be sent to Beisha, he did things step by step, and he didn't want to be caught by the Queen Mother on a whim for the emperor.

The emperor looked displeased with Zhou Yanzhi's face, and hurriedly said: "Thinking that the emperor already has the first beauty in the world as the princess, he should not be reluctant, and I am willing to send the ten counties of Wanhua adjacent to the realm of Beisha in exchange for that person." ”

Zhou Yanzhi secretly laughed spontaneously, Wanhua is abundant, but Beisha is strong, if he didn't know that Tao Baiyi, the most courageous prince of Beisha, was dead, this hot potato would not have taken it. However, just one side, Ye Yanxing got ten counties in exchange, so...

"The emperor mentioned it so suddenly, this king needs a little time." lowered his eyes as he spoke, as if he was down, and then said in a relieved tone: "Where is the smoke, alas, the emperor should wait a few more days." ”

Zhou Fufeng listened, his face was full of joy that he couldn't hide, it seemed that this thing would happen soon, "Yes, that person is arrogant, and I hope that Uncle Huang will persuade him more, I just wait." ”

As the twilight grew, and there was a shallow orange light on the horizon, Xue Mo asked his back on the chaise longue and stroked the folding fan, "Wanhua County Shouben is loyal to the prince, and the emperor's behavior can be said to be in favor of the trend, and it will not be more beneficial to us." Ye Gongzi is also a man, and the emperor cut off such a prosperous place for a man, and he is mediocre. ”

Xue Shanli stood aside and asked, "Then the prince, there is a change in the plan, how will you deal with it in the end?" ”

Zhou Yanzhi drank the fragrant tea, "Find a sensible person to send to Beisha." ”

"This king has a look at it today, the emperor is very obsessed, and Ye Yanxing is still of great use in staying in the mansion." sneered and chuckled, "What you can't get is always the best, leave more thoughts for the emperor, this king is curious, what else can Ye Yanxing bring to this king." ”

"The last general commands."

Xue Mo asked, and slowly spoke, "Lord Wang, the Queen Mother has done a lot of things behind her back recently, and it has been reported that there are many portraits of women in Qifeng Palace, I am afraid that it will be..." ”

"Oh? That's what she wanted. ”

"In this way, the emperor will be in power." Xue Shanli was shocked.

"It doesn't matter, the emperor is also a young son when he is in power, let alone this king, the prime minister will not agree, and then he will be in the same breath as this king, and it will be easy to set up the emperor for a few years."

"Prime Minister? Recently, he has not moved at all, and he is locked in the house every day to tease birds and fish, and his friends, courtiers, doormen, and students are all gone, which is very comfortable. ”

"Old fox, move faster, this king doesn't like things to be out of control."

"Wechen should do his best."

Summer thunderstorms, showers fall flowers, the sky is white and sunny, and the ground is full of red stamens.

As soon as the sky was polished in the early morning, the chief steward Fang Qian personally came to the side hall to evacuate the guards, and sent a few boxes of exquisite food and exquisite clothes. Coincidentally, I bumped into Princess Ming who was enjoying flowers and laughing in the garden with her maid.

was being amused by the lotus heart and chuckled, but at a glance, he saw the two people in the side hall who turned out behind the flowers and trees not far away, and suddenly lost their smiles, and the delicious snacks in front of him and the amusing words that had just entered the ears lacked a bit of taste.

"The slave greets the princess." Jiang Er quickly knelt down and kowtowed despite the soaked clothes all over the ground, thinking that the prince would not even pay attention to the emperor, how could he salute the princess.

As expected, Ye Yanxing's face did not change, and he bowed slightly to the princess in the pavilion.

Lian was extremely angry, "So presumptuous, don't you salute when you see Niangniang?" ”

"No need, the prince is a distinguished guest of the prince, and this gift is exempt." Nan Zhiyi's gaze moved from Ye Yanxing to the little servant kneeling on the ground, "It's just that this little servant doesn't know the rules and rushed into the palace, and now the palace has lost the interest in enjoying flowers and tea, and is a little displeased." ”

"Lianxin, go."

"The slave maid is angry for the mother." The intimate slave was very confidant, bowed quickly, rolled up her sleeves and walked to Jiang'er.

"What is the princess doing? The huge garden, the two of us passing through here, also ruined your Yaxing? Ye Yanxing frowned.

Nan Zhiyi is jealous and can't tolerate King Ming having anyone by his side, let alone Ye Yanxing being such a beautiful person, even if he is a man, she is also disgusted. "This palace respects your guests and exempts you from etiquette, I don't know how to be so presumptuous, contradicting this palace, just a little pet of the servant posture sent at will, do you really think that this palace will not dare to touch you?"

Ye Yanxing pursed her lips and smiled, respecting her position, unwilling to argue with her, but Nan Zhiyi was arrogant and arrogant, and easily spoke to hurt people, but she didn't know the general situation, "It is rumored that the princess is beautiful and dignified, and when I first saw her today, it was really a fool of the world." ”

"Arrogant, don't forget who you are? The lowly people also dare to speak disrespectfully to the palace. ”

"Yes, at this moment, the princess also knows that lowly people are also called people, if they are not born as human beings, they are bound by this etiquette, it is also strange to be below, and they should really be like the princess, and they will be a little more noble than others."

Jiang Er knelt on the side, couldn't stop crying, and then kowtowed heavily, "Don't argue, Childe, it's the slave who collided with Niangniang and disturbed Niangniang's interest, and the small one will be punished." ”

Nan Zhiyi looked directly at Ye Yanxing for a long time, and said in a cold tone: "Ye Gongzi, the mountains and rivers are high for a long time, today I will spare this servant once, this huge Ming Wangfu is very peaceful, we have time and energy, don't fall into my hands next time." ”

Lianxin is not followed, on weekdays, she relies on herself as a handmaid who is married by the princess from the wasteland, and she is deeply loved by Nan Zhiyi, and she is used to bullying her subordinates, and she wants to be unforgiving today, so she immediately said: "Niangniang, these two people offended the lord, according to the family rules, they should be taught a lesson." ”

"Lianxin, this palace is tired, and I want to rest."

Lianxin helped Nan Zhiyi up, turned his head and glared at Ye Yanxing fiercely, his eyes were fierce, and he did not hide the malice in it.

Jiang Er threw himself on the ground and cried sadly, Ye Yanxing squatted down and raised his head, took out the white silk and gently wiped the blood beads from his forehead, a little annoyed, "You little family will kowtow, this time you hurt yourself, are you serving me or me taking care of you?" ”

Looking at Ye Yanxing's gentle concern, Jiang Er cried even more, "Son, you really hurt Jiang Er this time, just after being punished by the princess, forget it, I am afraid it will be difficult for me to stay in this palace in the future." ”

"Dignified princess, how could she keep such a trivial matter in mind, Jiang'er doesn't have to care."

"The son doesn't know that the princess seems to be kind, but in fact she is ruthless. The prince is honorable, but there is only one princess by his side, not the two of them are in love. The ladies in the palace will be sick and sent out of the palace whenever they encounter grace. Jiang Er wiped her tears and said in a choked voice, "No one has returned." ”

"It's okay to be so cruel, this son will take you away, and you will be well taken care of for a lifetime, so you don't have to look at people's faces in this palace and worry about being afraid."

"Son, no, Jiang'er has entered the slavery of this palace, and it is a capital crime to escape. The world is the world of the prince, the path is lonely, where can I escape? ”

"Come home with me." Ye Yanxing replied proudly, afraid that Jiang Er would not believe it, and then said: "There is no one in the world to find, just forget it, you will know when the time comes." ”

When he returned to the side hall, he saw Zhou Yanzhi sitting in the courtyard, Fang Qian standing behind him squinting and smiling.

"The slave has seen the prince."

"Hmm." He snorted casually and agreed, looking at Ye Yanxing behind the servant, the man looked at him with a thick gaze, and the thin clouds of the whole summer gathered in his eyes.

"Today there is a hunting feast to sacrifice summer ploughing, and I will go with this king."

The clouds cleared and the fog disappeared, biting his lip and laughing lightly, bending the corners of his mouth and slowly replying: "I am willing to go together." ”

In the hunting ground on the outskirts of the imperial city, Zhou Fufeng couldn't help but look outside the tent, and walked back and forth anxiously.

"The emperor drinks a bowl of sugar water from the imperial dining room, the imperial doctor said that hunting consumes a lot of money, and you need to replenish more water."

"I said I wouldn't drink, go away."

"The emperor is waiting for the Ming prince, the person who has just come to report that he will arrive in a quarter of an hour."

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Zhou Fufeng's tone became stern when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked Wu'er to help him rearrange his riding and archery suit. "How?"

Wu'er was already timid, listening to the emperor's fierce tone, she lowered her head with red eyes and sorted out her clothes and praised, "Handsome and extraordinary." "Yesterday I was dressed in red and covered with rain and dew, but today I was indifferently refused, it is difficult to draw the skin and bones of a tiger, and it is difficult to fathom the heart of a tiger with you.

Within a moment, Zhou Fufeng saw King Ming and his entourage galloping from afar, swept away all his worries, and took the initiative to meet him.

"Uncle Huang came so late." He said King Ming in his mouth, but he stared at Ye Yanxing in his eyes.

Ye Yanxing didn't say anything, and Zhou Fufeng waved his hand in annoyance to stop the group of people who wanted to reprimand.

"I live in the palace, and I haven't stretched out since the spring hunt, and I hope that Uncle Huang will save me some face."

"To each his own." Zhou Yanzhi turned over and dismounted, reached out to take Xue Shanli and held a few high-grade bows and arrows, and after choosing, he selected a delicate red bow and handed it to Fang Qian.

The drums beat and the trumpeter kicked off the hunt to the beat of the drums.

Six years ago, the first emperor died, and in the following months, the current queen mother and the king of Ming coincidentally designed to kill the rest of the orthodox royal bloodline, and now the Great Zhou royal family seems to be prosperous, but in fact the blood is thin, except for their uncle and nephew, the only remaining imperial nobles are unable to inherit the unification of the side branches with different surnames.

"Winner, a thousand taels of gold, fine wine elixir, silk and satin, I hope that you Aiqing will not hide your strength and lose this rich reward."

With an order, the ministers scattered, and Zhou Yanzhi took Xue Shanli into the forest, just like a tiger returning to the mountain.

Ye Yanxing sat on a tall black horse, holding a delicate red bow and arrow in his hand. Watching this hunt very boringly, the man also knew his own nature, so he simply let himself be lazy.

Zhou Fufeng saw that only Ye Yan was walking, and urged the horse forward to come to him. "Ye Gongzi, the bushes in this forest are dense and it is easy to lose your way rashly, and there are many wild beasts, you might as well go with me, so that you can take care of it."

"It's fine, I don't like it."

Zhou Fufeng was secretly glad that this person finally spoke to himself, "I am proficient in hunting, and I can teach my son." ”

Ye Yanxing looked at the woods in front of him, his aura was strong, and Zhou Yanzhi also entered this woods, which was indeed a good place to go, so he nodded and agreed.

Zhou Yanzhi immediately took a bow and arrows and aimed at the wild boar lying in the bushes, only to hear the wild boar howl and pounce out of the bushes. Zhou Yanzhi pulled his bow and arrow again, the arrow feathers flew quickly, and the huge body of the wild boar fell to the ground with a bang.

"This wild boar is so hidden, the prince is really a good archeryman, and he deserves to be called a hundred steps through Yang." Xue Shanli unconsciously praised, "It seems that this hunt, the prince will definitely be able to come out on top." ”

Ye Yanxing looked at the man in the distance and patted the horse's neck, as if he was praising the horse's good cooperation, his eyebrows stretched out and he laughed lightly, and his cheeks sank into a small nest intoxicating.

Zhou Fufeng watched Ye Yanxing smile at others, his heart was unhappy and anxious, looking for prey everywhere in order to show his superb archery skills in front of Ye Yanxing and attract his attention. The sound in the north was loud, the birds and beasts in the mountains were frightened and fled, a flash of bright white flashed in the daylight, Zhou Fufeng pulled out his bow and arrow to aim at the brilliance, he knew that this thing was flexible, and he had to hit with an arrow or he would have lost the opportunity.

Ye Yanxing turned his head and saw Zhou Fufeng bending his bow to shoot the soft white, and hurriedly urged the horse in shock, the horse was stimulated, and raised his limbs to throw off the person on his back.

Xue Shanli, who was not far away, saw that Ye Yanxing was about to fall off the horse, afraid that he would be trampled by the horse's hooves and perform light skills, and be knocked away, seeing his master falling on the horse's back, he held the reins tightly, and hugged Ye Yanxing, who was about to fall off the horse in front of him.

The arm passed through his waist, and the heavy breath sprayed on his ear, and the two were very close, Ye Yanxing looked back at the red water around his eyes. Zhou Yanzhi frowned, Ye Yanxing's eyes were not the color of mountains and water, but tears.
