Chapter 92: Pleased
In the Hengwu Courtyard, Jun Tianlan stood with his hands under the eaves, and the red gauze crepe lantern swayed in the night breeze, sprinkling a halo on his shoulders.
He listened to the sound of the silk and bamboo orchestra in the distance, and remembered what Shen Miaoyan said during the day.
ββNational teacher, why don't we catch spiders tonight? Miaomiao wants to have a good marriage with the national teacher.
He thought as he paced down the steps slowly, and in the clear light of the moonlight, everything in the courtyard was clearly visible.
When he came back from his walk, there was an extra cardboard box in his hand.
Under the curious gaze of the guards in the corner, he entered the study with a blank face, put the carton on the desk, and then changed his face.
There was something unnatural between his eyebrows, staring at the huge spider in the cardboard box, secretly regretting how he did what a woman did, or did it under the pinch of that little girl!
He was thinking about it, when there was a sound of brisk footsteps outside, and the little girl came back, I don't know if she had encountered some happy event, and she was still humming a little song in her mouth.
When he walked out, he saw Shen Miaoyan holding two muddy door gods in one hand and a cardboard box in the other, and when he saw him, he couldn't help but smile coquettishly: "National teacher, I caught a big spider, and when I get up tomorrow morning, my spider web must be big and round!" β
As he spoke, he happily entered the east compartment and put away the door god and the cardboard box.
At this time, in the palace, on the pavilion of the Water Pavilion, Chu Yunjian sat in the center, accompanied by Queen Shen Yueru, surrounded by concubines, and was enjoying the play on the stage in the distance.
He didn't listen to what Hua Dan was babbling and singing, and his slightly cold gaze fell on the side of the stage, where a few pomegranate trees were planted, probably because of the cold of the island in the middle of the water, and now they were blooming.
Through the hazy light of the palace lamp, the pomegranate flowers were faintly visible, and a layer fell on the ground.
As he looked at it, he remembered the scene of Shen Miaoyan falling from a tree in Cheng'en Temple.
She was wearing a plain white skirt, and her face was full of panic.
She's still so young, she looks very delicate.
He wanted to hug her, but Jun Tianlan took the lead.
He thought, and a pair of dark eyes gradually deepened.
After a while, he got up directly, "Drive the National Teacher's Mansion." β
Gonggong Li, who was standing on the side, was shocked, and secretly said that he had only seen the national teacher during the day, why would he see him again tonight, this is the begging festival, and the ladies in the palace are looking forward to accompanying His Majesty, and sleeping well at night......
He thought about it, but he didn't dare to say it, so he hurriedly ordered someone to prepare the dragon chariot and prepare to go to the National Teacher's Mansion.
Shen Yueru took the concubines of the Sixth Palace to send him off, and the Ying nobles on the side asked in a low voice: "Queen Mother, why did Your Majesty suddenly want to go to the National Teacher's Mansion?" It's a begging festival. β
"Your Majesty's thoughts, how can this palace guess?" Shen Yueru's voice was faint, she swept her eyes like snow, stopped watching the play, and ordered someone to drive back to the palace.
These days, His Majesty has been like snow, and he has not set foot in the palace of other concubines for two months.
Even she, the queen, can only serve His Majesty once on the fifteenth day of the first month.
She thought, and the sakura lips with red lipstick showed a meaningful smile, this is like snow, but it is a blessed ......
In the Hengwu Courtyard of the National Teacher's Mansion, Shen Miaoyan settled his spider, jumped out of the east compartment, looked at the leakage, and saw that it was still early, so he went over and pulled Jun Tianlan's sleeve, saying that he wanted to go outside to see the moon.
Jun Tianlan was sitting under the window reading a book, and when he heard this, he looked up at the window, and his voice was faint: "Can't you see it from here?" β
Why go out and see.
Shen Miao choked on words, pulled his sleeve and refused to let go, and said coquettishly: "How can it be the same, the moon outside is bigger." β
As he was talking, Gu Ming suddenly ran in sweating: "Master, Your Majesty has arrived!" It's already at the door! β
Chu Yunjian? Shen Miaoyan was stunned, what did Chu Yunjian do in the National Teacher's Mansion during this Qixi Festival?
She looked at Jun Tianlan, Jun Tianlan silently closed the scroll, got up and walked out of the study.
Chu Yunjian seemed to be traveling in small clothes this time, wearing only a moon-white cardigan, holding a folding fan, and a white jade crown to tie his hair, looking like a noble son.
Jun Tianlan set up a small banquet in Xie Feng Pavilion, and when Chu Yun arrived, he saw melon and fruit snacks and two pots of wine on the table.
He took off his robe, sat on the stone bench, looked at the lights of the Qiqiao Building in the distance, listened to the faint sound of silk and bamboo orchestras, and said with a smile: "I thought that the national teacher was a person who loved purity, but I didn't want to, but the house was so lively." β
"It's a holiday." Jun Tianlan said, and personally poured him a glass of wine.
The lights hanging in Xie Feng's Pavilion flickered slightly in the night breeze, reflected in the water, blurring the light and shadow, revealing an indescribable hazy beauty.
Chu Yunjian shook the folding fan and looked at Jun Tianlan's cold face: "It's okay tonight, why don't you play two games with the national teacher?" β
Jun Tianlan didn't say anything, raised his hand slightly, and Gu Ming brought someone over, removed the banquet, and arranged the chessboard.
Xie Fengting was quiet in the pavilion, and only the sound of the wind and the sound of falling children could be heard.
Gu Ming was serving tea to someone, but saw Shen Miaoyan coming over with a tray, and his voice was extremely sweet: "Uncle Gu, Sister Su Wen went to Qiqiao Building, and I brought tea for her." β
Gu Ming didn't think too much about it, and hurriedly said, "Send it in quickly, Miss Shen has worked hard to make this trip." β
Shen Miaoyan smiled and quickly entered Xie Feng Pavilion.
Will she kindly send tea to Chu Yunjian?
Think beautifully.
Shen Miaoyan put the cup in the hands of the two of them, and then stood obediently behind Jun Tianlan.
Chu Yunjian was lowering his eyes, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a pair of embroidered shoes embroidered with Xia grass.
The embroidered shoes were very small, and the feet of the owner were also small.
The thin lips hooked into a chuckle, and when he raised his head, he saw Shen Miaoyan standing behind Jun Tianlan.
She was holding the tray, very well-behaved, and dressed up pleasantly.
He twisted a black jade chess piece with his fingers, and there didn't seem to be such a pleasing little girl in the palace.
Xie Fengting was too quiet, Shen Miaoyan was a little anxious, and frequently turned his gaze to the tea in Chu Yunjian's hand.
She took out a small bag of croton powder from Su Wen's room, and spilled it all into the cup of tea, hoping that Chu Yunjian would drink it.
As if the heavens could hear her thoughts, Chu Yunjian picked up the cup of tea as she expected.
Chu Yunjian brushed the tea leaves with the lid, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw the little girl opposite with wide round eyes and a smile.
He couldn't help lowering his eyes, could it be that what was in this tea?
He took the opportunity to hand the teacup to the side, "Li Qi, this tea is rewarded to you." β
Shen Miaoyan was stunned, only to see the big eunuch happily take it, as if he was greedy, he took a big sip and praised: "It's really good tea!" The slave thanks the master for the reward! β
Jun Tianlan took in everything, and said in his heart that this little girl was causing trouble again.
After a while, Gonggong Li suddenly covered his stomach, his face was pale, and finally cried and confessed: "Your Majesty, slave...... Minion ......"
Chu Yunjian couldn't see him like this, so he waved his hand and motioned for him to solve it himself.
