Chapter 83: Thoughts
The crescent moon bends like a hook, and a pair of people sit upright next to Xiaoxuan's window, drinking from each other, occasionally smiling at each other, and gossiping interestingly.
The condensation is silent, Hua Weilan's eyes are like water, her calm face has an uncomfortable stubbornness and pride, one hand is lined with cheeks, and the other hand is turning the wine glass with interest, quietly looking at the starry night sky outside the window.
And opposite her, Rong Yunhe was still the same as before, his face was calm, and his movements were not the slightest frivolous, and his every move was natural, without revealing the slightest disgusting problem.
"The prince has been puzzled recently, as if he has thoughts?" Hua Weilan had a trace of waves between her eyebrows, and there was a terrifying softness between her words.
Rong Yunhe was silent, he didn't know how to speak, he couldn't say that he was thinking about Qin Luoyi, but he was really thinking, fortunately, he rarely put his thoughts on his face on weekdays, and Hua Weilan didn't see through his thoughts.
"It's nothing, it's just that there are a lot of things in the court, and the mother concubine is ......" Rong Yunhe said here, he knew that Hua Weilan could understand.
Hua Weilan was a little surprised, and then suddenly, she naturally knew what Rong Yunhe meant, Jin Guifei was not an ordinary person, and she was very strong and ambitious, this Hua Weilan could see it at first sight, on the contrary, Rong Yunhe's performance was much more ordinary, it could be said that she had no desires, but Jin Guifei wanted to let Rong Yunhe have more contact with political affairs, and the purpose was self-evident.
"So that's the case, the prince might as well come according to his own thoughts, why force it. Hua Weilan's voice slowed down, she could understand Rong Yunhe's mood, but she was a little unhappy with Rong Yunhe's thoughts.
"Maybe it's because of his temperament that I like it. Hua Weilan sighed in her heart.
The delicate boudoir, Hua Weilan is very well maintained, she has always liked to sit by the window, so this room has also been rearranged by her, on the side of the window, a table is placed under the window, so that occasionally sitting here, you can see the scenery outside, you can see the birds flying freely.
Rong Yunhe didn't want to entangle with Hua Weilan in his own mind, Hua Weilan was capable, he had already discovered this, although he was born in Qinglou, although she was not as good as everyone else, she could also handle it, and her talent was also appreciated by Rong Yunhe, but from the first day of acquaintance, Rong Yunhe regarded the other party as his friend, until the other party became his concubine.
This slightly embarrassing feeling of psychology made Rong Yunhe a little confused, but it was a foregone conclusion, and he could only accept it silently.
"By the way, how are those shops doing lately?" asked Rong Yunhe with some curiosity.
Hua Weilan is capable, Concubine Jin is naturally willing to let her have more contact, since following Rong Yunhe, Hua Weilan has also reined in her past temperament, and began to sincerely help Rong Yunhe take care of trivial matters.
As a prince, the annual income is not enough for personal contacts, and it is inevitable that he will have to operate privately, and Hua Weilan has always started to help Rong Yunhe in this.
Hua Weilan is also quite proud of this, she doesn't want to let herself be too wronged, her heart is higher than the sky, she also wants to have some achievements, to be able to marry into the palace, although she is a concubine, but she doesn't feel that she is the life of a concubine, she has enough ability.
Everything starts from the subtleties, so she is very attentive, hoping to get more recognition from Rong Yunhe.
Seeing Rong Yunhe's question, she smiled and said, "It's not bad, it's just a little thing." ”
"Now it's different from the past, the situation is quite tense, and it's hard for you to make people's hearts fluctuate. "One day husband and wife, although Qin Luoyi has a heavier weight in Rong Yunhe's heart, he did not deliberately snub Hua Weilan, on the contrary, he has been very good to Hua Weilan recently.
"I know. Hua Weilan nodded, and said with a smile: "Don't worry about me, don't worry about me, but you have to care more about yourself." ”
As he spoke, he asked, "By the way, Lord Wang, I heard that the concubine wants you to marry the daughter of the prime minister as the princess, I don't know what happened?"
"No shadow, how can it be so easy, besides, I haven't agreed yet. Rong Yunhe was a little depressed, this is simply not a pot to mention, he didn't think about it at all, he clearly refused, how could he still mention it with Weilan.
Hua Weilan hadn't heard of the corner, so she naturally didn't know what happened that day, she felt that Concubine Jin was not willing to give up so easily, and there would definitely be another way.
"Could it be that the mother concubine will forget it like this?" Hua Weilan raised her eyebrows and teased: "It seems that we will have one more sister in the future." ”
Rong Yunhe was not worried about whether it was false, but seeing that what Hua Weilan said was also reasonable, his mother did not give up so easily, and immediately said: "I refused later, and recently the second emperor brother has also been involved, and my father has temporarily suppressed this matter." ”
Hua Weilan was stunned for a moment, she really didn't know these news, and she couldn't figure out why Rong Yunhe refused, and asked: "Why does the prince refuse this matter, such a family affair is a lot of benefits to the prince." ”
"It's nothing, I don't know what kind of temperament the prime minister's daughter is, how dare I agree at will, not to mention that this kind of woman is not easy to deal with if she has been married. Rong Yunhe seemed to be smiling rather than smiling, obviously joking, as for how true and how false it was, it was unknown.
In order to accept it when it was good, he began to talk about the topic elsewhere, and said: "I heard that the envoys of Western Xia are about to enter Beijing, I don't know what they look like. ”
"The same nose and two eyes, similar to us, but different in dress. "Rong Yunhe has naturally seen that the envoys of Western Xia will go to Beijing once a year, as a place of projectiles, they are also worried that the imperial court will send troops to attack them, so they have always been very respectful to the imperial court.
When he was very young, Rong Yunhe was stained with the light of his identity and was taken care of by Concubine Jin, and he had seen the envoys of Xixia, and later it was not uncommon every year, but in recent years, it has decreased a lot.
The candle flame flickered, and she seemed to be amused by Rong Yunhe's words, the red light reflected on Hua Weilan's face, making her look extraordinarily beautiful, and she picked up the wine jug with her slender fingers, added a glass of wine to Rong Yunhe, and said with a smile: "That's interesting, when the time comes, the prince will have to take me aside to see." ”
"Okay, if I have the chance, I'll take you there. Rong Yunhe didn't finish his words.
This kind of thing is difficult to predict, the envoys of the Western Xia belong to the envoys of the neighboring countries, representing their courts, every year, the emperor must be attentive to the reception, but also to prevent the assassination of unscrupulous people, they are very protective of them, not just want to see them.
"Hey, isn't the prince familiar with Honglu Temple, let's visit together when the time comes. "Hua Weilan is really not ignorant at all, Honglu Temple is naturally exclusive to receiving foreign envoys.
Rong Yunhe nodded, and said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid it's not that simple this year." ”
This year is indeed not as good as in previous years, and now the vassal kings everywhere are all excited, and there is almost no upright rebellion, and many of them will hit the head of the Western Xia, because although the Western Xia is small, but the national strength is also not weak, and getting their support will also be a big help.
The two of them gossiped like this until the candle flame dimmed and the red tent fell.
On the second day, just after the early dynasty, Song Jinya summoned Rong Yunhe to the front, Rong Yunhe was very surprised, I don't know why the mother concubine was so sudden, and she looked quite anxious.
"Mother. Seeing Song Jinya, Rong Yunhe was very casual, Song Jinya has always been very kind to him, and many times he does not pay attention to red tape.
"Recently, you have to be more careful, don't talk nonsense, and don't pick up people indiscriminately, if there is an unfamiliar person visiting, you can refuse, and if you can't refuse, you just need to go through the motions at will. Concubine Jin's face was surprisingly serious, and she advised her wholeheartedly.
Rong Yunhe's heart jumped and asked, "But something happened?"
"It's not clear yet. Concubine Jin shook her head and said, "Today, in the court, the emperor specially mentioned it because of the matter of the vassal king, so there must be other actions." ”
"I don't know what my father will do, can my mother know?" Rong Yunhe was stunned for a moment, his brows furrowed, he just didn't like to participate in political affairs, but it didn't mean that he didn't understand, as a prince, since he was a child, a set of education teams were counted by the emperor, from enlightenment to teaching, the arrangements were all top-notch, and both poetry and books were very complete.
"It's not clear, but in this way, the court will definitely be unstable, and now many ministers are in contact with the vassal king, and the emperor's move, they will definitely be able to guess the emperor's intentions, and they will definitely take action. Concubine Jin said solemnly.
As a vassal king, he also had a great relationship with the emperor at the beginning, and the emperor couldn't ignore it, but most of them were members of the imperial family, and many ministers valued the royal family, or in order to befriend the royal family, they did not do less things to marry the vassal king.
Now the emperor's fear of the vassal king is well known, and it is precisely because of this that everyone is very frightened and has to seek a way to live for themselves, but the more this is the case, the more the emperor is haunted and unable to feel at ease, so the emperor's actions against the vassal king will happen sooner or later, but now the emperor is completely on the bright side.
As early as the beginning, in order to stabilize the court, the emperor secretly suppressed a lot of ministers who were at odds with the vassal kings in various places, but they did it very secretly, and now although the emperor did not explicitly say that he wanted to attack the vassal king, the intention was obvious, and some ministers naturally couldn't sit still.
The ministers who are loyal to the emperor will naturally think of ways to find fault with the vassal king, and at the same time will supervise the ministers of the court, and those who are loyal to the vassal king will not sit idly by, so they will naturally meet vertically and horizontally.
Rong Yunhe thought about it, as a prince, he had to be cautious, no matter what, he couldn't let himself have anything to do with the vassal king, not to mention that the competition between the princes was also very fierce, once someone found out that he had a connection with the vassal king, or had seen someone from the vassal king's line, go to the emperor to complain, and he would be completely finished.
"Yes, Erchen understands. Rong Yunhe responded solemnly, and then wondered very much: "I don't know why my father is so fanfare, and it is very urgent, could something else happen?"
"I don't know about this palace either, so let's take a look first. Concubine Jin was silent
