Chapter 244: Imperial Power
For Xu Wenyu, Cheng Xi is really unusual, but this person will be the county magistrate of Anyang County in the future, thinking that he will go back to Anyang County, and I don't know if he will secretly do something, Cheng Xi is very irritable.
Xu Sanlang heard Cheng Xi's question, and explained to Cheng Xi, "The emperor knows that we are going back to Anyang County, and Xu Wenyu is Xue Youxiang's person, the emperor has let go of the Xue family so generously, the Xue family must be grateful to the emperor, and I am afraid that he will stand on the same line with the emperor to deal with us in the future, and Xu Wenyu is placed in Anyang County, so he has become a ready-made eyeliner to monitor us." ”
Hearing Xu Sanlang's analysis, Cheng Xi frowned, sighed helplessly, and said, "I didn't expect that it would be so difficult to live a stable life." ”
Xu Sanlang pulled Cheng Xi to get up, "Don't worry about it, hurry up and wash up and sleep, I just have to worry about these things, and you can live your peaceful life with peace of mind." ”
Cheng Xi knew that even if he didn't worry about it, he couldn't do anything, so he no longer sighed, and obediently let Xu Sanlang pull him back to the house to wash and sleep.
Lying only on the bed, Cheng Xi nestled in Xu Sanlang's arms and was about to sleep, when he heard Xu Saburo say, "I almost forgot, we have to go to the palace tomorrow." ”
Cheng Xi frowned slightly, "Why do you still want to enter the palace?" ”
Xu Sanlang was also very helpless, and he didn't want to go, but the emperor's order was embarrassed, so he said, "Tomorrow for the Mid-Autumn Festival, the emperor will set up a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, and let us all go to the palace to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival." ”
Cheng Xi knew that he couldn't hide, so he didn't say anything, just nestled in Xu Sanlang's arms sullenly and said "um" softly.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is a day of reunion, it was originally a happy festival, only this day, the people of Ruiwangfu are not too happy, for no other reason, there is no other reason that they can't stay together as a family for the Mid-Autumn Festival, but to enter the palace, go to the palace banquet again, think about the previous palace banquet, there are no good memories, and the group is very resistant.
Especially Ge Shu and Zhao Yu, thinking that they would see the emperor again, they panicked in their hearts.
Only the imperial power was high, and they could not disobey the imperial power, even if they were reluctant, they had to go, so in the afternoon, after the group was ready, they were not very happy to go to the palace.
After only entering the palace, it was a little surprising to them, but they didn't expect that there was no palace banquet at all, but was taken by Shen Gonggong to a pavilion in the imperial garden, and in the pavilion at this time, the emperor sat alone at the table in the pavilion, waiting for their group.
Cheng Xi and his entourage were very strange, they glanced at each other, and they couldn't figure out what kind of medicine the emperor was selling in his bones.
When he saw the pavilion, Gonggong Shen stopped, and Shi Li said to King Rui and the others, "Your Majesty is already waiting for a few people inside, let's go in quickly." ”
King Rui's footsteps paused, and finally took the lead to walk over there, the group went to the pavilion, the emperor had already stood up, greeted King Rui and the others, and said, "Your family doesn't have to be polite, come and sit, Uncle Huang is an elder, sit here." ”
Everyone didn't expect that the emperor would give the first place to King Rui, but King Rui didn't understand what the emperor was thinking? Deliberately testing whether he had the ambition to steal his high position, so he did this on purpose?
Thinking in his heart, he said another set of words, "This is absolutely unacceptable, Your Majesty, of course you should sit in this position." ”
A wry smile appeared on the emperor's face, and he said, "Uncle Huang, I will be a natural elder without you tonight, sit in that position." ”
When he said this, the emperor was also extremely sincere, and he didn't see a trace of temptation, it was more like a junior treating an elder, Cheng Xi looked at such a scene, and his mind seemed to understand something.
Regardless of whether it is the most ruthless imperial family, but these people of the imperial family are actually affectionate, but that love will eventually be swallowed up by power and status, and eventually fall into a ruthless reputation.
King Rui also seemed to understand the emperor's thoughts at this time, and said, "Since Ran'er said this, then I'm not welcome, Ran'er also sits, you all sit." ”
Seeing that King Rui had already spoken, the others also obediently went over and sat down around the table.
Cheng Xi glanced at the emperor beside King Rui, and seemed to see the water light in his eyes, so he heard the emperor speak, "For the first time in so many years, I can spend a Mid-Autumn Festival with my relatives, and I thank Uncle Huang for coming to the capital to see me." ”
In Cheng Xide's eyes, the emperor at this time seems to be no longer the emperor, but an ordinary teenager, an ordinary teenager who yearns for family care, and at the same time, Cheng Xi also sighed in his heart, the fate of this emperor is actually quite bumpy, even if he is powerful, he may not be able to live happily and comfortably.
King Rui heard the emperor's words, and also sighed and said, "Over the years, Ran'er has been wronged. No matter how ordinary a sentence is, it made Emperor Zhou Ran's eyes red, since his father left, no one has spoken to him like this anymore.
At the beginning, the Empress Dowager Murong and the regent did not respect him too much, and the Empress Dowager Murong often taught him in the tone of an elder, but those were his shame, the shame of being an emperor, because their lesson was not out of sincerity, but a provocation and insult to him.
After a while, the emperor tried to put away the light in his eyes, and with a gentle smile, he said to Princess Rui, "After all these years, my aunt is still as beautiful as she was back then, and nothing has changed?" ”
Princess Rui listened to the emperor's praise and replied with a smile, "Ran'er can speak, but my aunt is old and old, so what is beautiful or not." ”
The emperor smiled and said, "Auntie is modest, since we have arrived, let's start eating, what we are preparing today is not too rich, but it is very exquisite, I hope that my uncle and aunt and two younger brothers will use it." ”
The emperor clapped his hands, and a row of people came over one after another with trays, and put the food on the table, which was really delicate enough.
After that, the emperor beckoned everyone to eat, and chatted with everyone from time to time, but it was no more ordinary, it seemed that he was just an ordinary person, eating with his relatives, and after a meal, it was rare to be unusually harmonious, neither talking about any house fight, nor talking about any palace fight, not to mention any power struggle in the court, only talking about the customs and customs of various places, chatting about some irrelevant topics.
It wasn't until late that the emperor let Cheng Xi and them go back.
Cheng Xi and Xu Sanlang sat in a carriage, Cheng Xi kept sighing all the way, Xu Sanlang was really curious, and couldn't help asking, "Why are you just sighing today?" ”
Cheng Xi responded, "I'm sorry for this emperor, in fact, this person is not bad, but in the end, he is a member of the emperor's family, even if he is a simple teenager, I am afraid that he will not be able to resist the temptation of power in the end." ”
