Chapter 38 - Hands
"Concubines see the emperor."
Su Jingxi didn't expect that it was the end of the day, he actually came to Zuiyunwu in the moonlight, and when he turned around and saw him, he almost thought he was dreaming.
"What are you doing outside? Still not sleeping? Zong Zhengjin walked over, personally helped her up, touched her hands, and didn't care.
The cunning eyes turned, a little playful, a little naughty, and the pear vortex loomed on her cheeks, "The concubine must have sensed that the emperor was coming, and she couldn't sleep at night, so she came here to greet the holy driver." ”
Zong Zhengjin was amused by her and tightened her cloak, "You are reasonable." ”
He was busy with her affairs during the day, and he had no intention of reviewing the backlog of notes, and when he finally calmed down, it was already the beginning of the morning after dealing with those political affairs, and when he was ready to go to bed, he suddenly decided to come to see her.
Even if it is a glance, there is always some anxiety in my heart.
"Let's go in, it's cold outside at night."
Su Jingxi took off her cloak and hurriedly followed the person who walked directly into the inner room, "Your Majesty, do you want to have a cup of tea to warm up?" ”
Zong Zhengjin didn't reply, "You can warm up by holding Xi'er." ”
Su Jingxi was stunned, this guy was teasing her again?
"The emperor bullied the concubines again."
Zong Zhengjin sat down on the edge of the bed, "Bully? Tell me, why did I bully you? ”
Su Jingxi walked up to him and sat down, sniffed, and began to complain, "The emperor is tall and long-legged, bullying concubines with short legs, and relying on his own talent to be eight buckets tall and knowledgeable, bullying concubines short-sighted and narrow-minded, and ......"
Zong Zhengjin smiled and pulled her to his lap and sat down, "Why are there so many crooked reasons?" I'll see how short your legs are......"
Su Jingxi was taken aback, and hurriedly pulled her skirt to prevent him from taking it off as he wished, "Your Majesty, don't ......"
Zong Zhengjin just wanted to scare her, and he didn't really move her, so he stopped what he was doing, and instead held her soft in his hand and played with it, "Don't worry, I'm reluctant to move you." ”
Su Jingxi suddenly had an urge to cry, and the three words "reluctant" were so imprinted on her heart, so hot that she couldn't help but want to cry.
Zong Zhengjin just said what she thought, she didn't expect her reaction to be so big, she changed her position, the two faced each other, and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her thumb, "Why are you so stupid?" What a child. ”
Su Jingxi was just emotional for a moment, and bit her lip when she heard the words, obviously dissatisfied with his evaluation, "The concubine doesn't care, no matter how stupid she is, it's the emperor." ”
Zong Zhengjin nodded quite seriously, and there was a bit of tenderness in his eyes, "Well, no matter how stupid I am, it's mine." ”
The two of them had a good night's sleep until dawn.
"Your Majesty......" Su Jingxi sat up from the bed and rubbed her eyes.
Zong Zhengjin was dressing, but when he heard the movement, he turned around, saw that she was awake, and walked over, "Why don't you sleep for a while?" Did it wake you up? ”
Su Jingxi climbed to the side of the bed with his strength, "No, I'll wake up naturally, is it okay for the concubine to serve you?" ”
Zong Zhengjin nodded dispensably.
Su Jingxi hadn't done these things to serve him before, even if he had been taught, but theory and practice were always different.
After trying several times, Su Jingxi helped him not wear a dragon robe, frowned in distress, and resolutely decided that it was right to ask for help, "Your Majesty, the concubine seems to have forgotten a little." ”
Zong Zhengjin was not impatient, in fact, he was still enjoying it, touched her little head, and guessed that she would not be able to do it early in the morning, this was the first time she took the initiative to serve him since entering the palace.
Ignoring Su Shun's frowning on the side, he taught her so and that hand, "Study hard." ”
Su Jingxi humbly asked for advice, practiced seriously, and finally let him dress neatly, "Let's let others help you tie your hair." ”
If you accidentally hurt him, will it be considered damage to the dragon's body?
Zong Zhengjin was not reluctant, waved his hand, since someone stepped forward to take care of him and cleaned up everything, Zong Zhengjin saw her sitting in front of the dresser in a daze and looking at him, not knowing what she was thinking.
"What are you thinking?"
Su Jingxi raised her head and chuckled, "The concubine thinks the emperor is so good-looking." ”
It seems that every time she encounters something beautiful and beautiful, what she really likes is only one word, "good-looking", although he is not happy to compare himself with yesterday's paintings, but it is undeniable that he is in a good mood.
"I'll help you draw your eyebrows," Zong Zhengjin glanced at the sky outside, and suddenly became interested.
Su Jingxi naturally wouldn't refuse him, and nodded when she heard this, "Okay, the emperor has to paint well, and the concubine's flower-like beauty today depends on this eyebrow." ”
Zong Zhengjin was helpless, what should I do if the painting is not good, "If the painting is not good, you will stay in Zuiyunwu today, and don't go anywhere." ”
Su Jingxi pursed her lips and wanted to refute a few words, but her eyes were raised, and she saw him holding an eyebrow pencil and waiting for him, "Do you want moon eyebrows or bead eyebrows?" ”
"Women are those who please themselves, and the emperor can decide."
Su Jingxi sat on the embroidery pier, he bent down slightly, his eyes were burning, he was engrossed, his whole mind seemed to be focused on her, and there was only her in his eyes.
A serious man is the most attractive, especially if this man is doing a heart-warming thing for you, sending hot tea to Jun Yanmo, painting eyebrows and green silk for his relatives, and Yaxing is so good.
"See how?" Zong Zhengjin put down the charcoal pen and looked left and right, and he was still very satisfied in his heart.
Su Jingxi turned her head to look at the person in the ivory openwork bronze mirror, although it was plated with a layer of gold, the person could see it clearly, and the simple two moon eyebrows made her peach blossom eyes even taller, and there was ...... Flirtatious.
"The emperor is really good, I can't see that it's the first time at all."
Zong Zhengjin smiled, he was still very confident in himself, even the last time he helped her dress, it was so cumbersome, didn't he figure it out in the end?
"I'm going first, you're so alive."
Zong Zhengjin walked to the door and said in a deep voice to the minions who knelt on the ground, "All the minions in Zuiyunwu have doubled their monthly money this month, so that they can serve your master." ”
"Slave and slave obey."
It's not a lot of reward, but it's also an affirmation and encouragement, rewarding them at this juncture, and secretly warning them not to become the second generation of youth.
The queen was grounded, even if Su Jingxi got up, she didn't need to ask for peace, she slept well last night, and she was in good spirits at the moment.
Lying on the couch, idly flipping through a book, a very common story, a poor scholar fell in love with the daughter of the prime minister's family, read at night, hung the beam and pierced the stocks, and finally won the championship, the title of the gold list, when he went to ask for marriage, he found that the daughter had been promised to someone, the son of the soldier of the Ministry of War, the two of them abandoned their families and eloped to resist fate, but they did not expect to be caught back, and finally both were martyred.
Although Su Jingxi loves to see these things, it doesn't mean that she really agrees with the concept of love conveyed here, many unrealistic, for example, how could the emperor agree to the marriage of the prime minister and the squire of the military department; How to elope without a guide; After eloping, being captured, how to be martyred, and so on.
Throwing the book aside, life is really a little leisurely, Su Jingxi pondered with her cheeks.
"Master, do you want some snacks?"
Su Jingxi thought of yesterday's chestnut cake, "This concubine wants to make it herself, let's go to the imperial dining room." ”
Ting Yao was a little reluctant, "Master, your body has not healed yet, and you are still ......"
"Good Tingyao, your master is greedy, can't you do it yourself? Don't you always say that this concubine has never given the emperor anything, well, the opportunity has come. ”
Listening to Yao, it was not good to really stop it, so after a word of persuasion, he took Xiaofuzi and others to the imperial dining room.
Su Jingxi made a look, Xiao Fuzi immediately stepped forward to talk to a person who looked like a manager, and after a few words, the father-in-law came over, "Slave see Concubine Zhen." ”
"This father-in-law invites you, my concubine wants to borrow a small stove and make some pastries, I don't know if it's convenient?" As he spoke, he asked Tingyao to hand over a purse.
The father-in-law waved his hand again and again, not daring to accept it, "Look at what Master Zhen said, how can it be inconvenient, it's just that the kitchen is full of people, and the slave is worried that my master will dirty his dress." ”
"It's okay, just find a father-in-law to take us with you," Ting Yao said at the right time.
The father-in-law hurriedly beckoned a little eunuch standing not far away, "Master Zhen, this is Xiao Manzi, if you need anything, just call him." Then he said to the little eunuch, "Serve Master Zhen well." ”
Xiao Manzi immediately agreed, and hurriedly took them to the small kitchen in another place.
When Su Jingxi is at home, she occasionally messes with these foods, but there are not many, and the best thing is also her favorite, she is a person who attaches importance to the appetite of the mouth, a layman, she eats happily, and people are happy.
However, the eyes of Xi Xiang and the others widened, obviously surprised, "Master, it's so fragrant, it must be delicious." ”
"Don't worry, everyone has a share," Su Jingxi is still very happy that someone affirms her cooking skills.
Packed a food box and handed it to Xiaofuzi, "Send it to the emperor." ”
Xiao Fuzi answered, and did not dare to delay, and hurriedly went to the Zichen Palace, at this hour, the emperor should have gone down to the early court.
Su Shunxian was coming out of the hall, and when he saw Xiao Fuzi standing outside, he hurriedly walked over, "But what is the matter with Master Zhen?" ”
Xiao Fuzi raised the food box in his hand, "No, the master personally cooked, made some chestnut cakes, and sent the servants to send some to the emperor." ”
Su Shun was happy, when the emperor came out of Zuiyunwu in the morning, the mood was very good, in the early dynasty, he was also patiently listening to the debate between the prime minister and the queen mother's brother Jing Kanghou, but the two of them later did not know whether they were alive or dead, although the emperor favored Shu Guifei and Zhen Concubine, but neither of them had any heirs, and asked the emperor to be wet with rain and dew.
All discerning people can see that the emperor is unhappy, but Jing Kanghou is still there and unknowingly saying that the concubine is not worthy of being a concubine and her luck is shallow.
The emperor retired coldly, and his mood did not improve after he came back, and now with this, isn't it just like "a long drought and a rainy day"?
