Chapter 11: Supporting Huo Yan

"Husband, I'm fine."

Rou Yun walked out of the bathhouse, her moon-white middle coat, her long hair was damp and messy on her chest and shoulders, her underwear was stained, and her cheeks were red from nervousness.

This kind of bright color makes Yue Xun even more distracted, and he uncomfortably brushes his eyes aside, if Rou Yun's usual makeup posture is like a begonia that is not stained by the world, then now it is more like a coquettish hibiscus. Either one is enough to make people addicted to it and go deep into the bone marrow.

"Do you want to wash up, I'll tell the maids to change the water." Rou Yun said and was about to walk out.

Yue Xun subconsciously grabbed her, maintaining the same look as always: "No need, I have bathed on the side." ”

"My husband seems to be going back to the house earlier than usual."

"Don't you like it?"

Rou Yun didn't expect Yue Xun to ask such a question, and he was stunned for a while, Yue Xun also pursed his lips, and he blurted out subconsciously.

"I like it." Rou Yun muttered quietly.

Yue Xun didn't expect Rou Yun to reply to him, thinking that he had heard something: "What? ”

"I said yes. I like my husband to go back to the house early. Rou Yun tugged at her sleeves, although nervous, she still raised her head to stare at Yue Xun's eyes, and her tone was sincere.

Yue Xun opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, and for a while he really looked like a hairy boy who was just starting to fall in love.

"Is the husband going to rest?" Rou Yun took the lead in breaking the embarrassment.

"Later, I've got something to look for you." Yue Xun picked up the handkerchief and handed it to her to signal her to dry it, and then moved to the couch by the window.

Rou Yun took the handkerchief, wiped the ends of her hair with her hands and feet, and followed Yue Xun to the window: "What's the matter with the husband?" ”

Yue Xun stared at the flickering candlelight on the low table on the couch, and moved his gaze to Rou Yun: "Come with me to my grandmother's courtyard tomorrow morning for dinner." ”

Rou Yun was a little surprised, except for the time when the newlywed had tea, Yue Xun had never been out of the hospital, and he actually took the initiative to invite himself today. Seeing Yue Xun staring at him, his eyebrows raised slightly, as if he cared about her distraction, and before Yue Xun was angry, he quickly replied: "Okay." ”

"You don't ask why?"

"It makes sense if the husband doesn't say it, so why should I rush up and ask."

Yue Xun was speechless, and only said in a half-loud voice: "Tomorrow I have a big matter to negotiate with my grandmother, which is related to the success or failure of Yuefu, you are my wife, you should know." ”

"Okay."

This was the first time he had said he was his wife. Rou Yun's smile was like a flower, her eyes were like water, her face was more red, and she was glamorous.

"I heard that grandmother asked you to participate in the next moon palace banquet?" Yue Xun hurriedly changed the topic.

"Well, my grandmother asked me to go with my sister-in-law." Rou Yun bit her lip and was a little cautious: "However, I have never entered the palace, and I don't understand the rules in the palace at all, for fear of embarrassing Yuefu." ”

"It's okay, sister-in-law will help you." Yue Xun paused: "If you encounter someone who is embarrassed, you must not swallow your anger." Behind you is the General's Mansion, and your husband is still General Huaiyuan. ”

Rou Yun smiled timidly: "I remember." ”

"It's getting late, let's go up and rest."

"Then I'll let Canglan come in and change your clothes."

"Not necessarily." Yue Xun spoke: "I have asked him to go back to rest." ”

Rou Yun clenched the hem of her clothes: "Then I will change clothes for my husband?" ”

"Hmm."

Rou Yun leaned closer, and her hands trembled a little to help Yue Xun untie her belt and put her coat on top. From time to time, his fingertips crossed Yue Xun's chest, disturbing his mind; Rou Yun was not having a good time, the first time she did this kind of thing, fine sweat broke out on her forehead and the tip of her nose. Yue Xun lowered his head and looked at his wife vaguely, she was like a fusion of the world's expectations for women, dignified, virtuous, and beautiful.

After changing clothes, the two tacitly fell asleep together and never said a word.

Early the next morning, the maid of Changying Courtyard reported to the old lady's courtyard in advance that the general and the young lady were going to come to Nanshan Courtyard to have a meal together.

Yue Xun was dressed in a purple sandalwood brocade robe, with a jade crown on his head, sideburns like ink, sword eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and the scars on his face did not seem to have the slightest impact on the jade-like face, but added a touch of military general atmosphere to the face of a Confucian child. Rou Yun is a begonia pink shirt, a moon-white Luo skirt, the face is like a bright moon, and the color is like a spring flower. The old lady, the Wei family and the maids in the courtyard were stunned, the two were so compatible, a match made in heaven for men and women.

Yue Xun was pushed into the door by Canglan, and Rou Yun followed closely with the winter solstice.

"Grandmother, mother."

"Grandmother Ann, Mother Ann, keep you waiting." Rou Yun said apologetically.

"It's not too late, it's not too late." The old lady laughed so hard that her folds were huddled together.

"Sit down and have breakfast." Wei's is also happy, how beautiful it will be when grandchildren come out in the future.

Everyone gathered for dinner, because Yue Xun had inconvenient legs and feet, Rou Yun intimately sandwiched the meal he couldn't reach in front of the plate in front of him, Yue Xun chopsticks for a meal, Rou Yun was afraid that he would think he had humiliated him, a little worried, Yue Xun looked at the woman, continued to move the chopsticks, and ate the food in front of the plate.

The old lady and Wei glanced at each other, the smile on the corner of her mouth couldn't be stopped, and she teased Rou Yun a few words, she was ashamed to bow her head and chew slowly, not daring to look directly at Yue Xun. The corners of Yue Xun's mouth were slightly raised, if Rou Yun raised her head at this moment, she should be able to bump into that tenderness. Even if it's a moment, it's enough to sink.

After breakfast, everyone tasted tea together in the back room. The best Biluochun, the unique fruity fragrance of Biluochun, the tea leaves are stretched, and the fragrance hits people. Although the Yue family is not as beautiful as before, the treasury in the house has a lot of advantages.

"Grandmother, I have something to discuss with you." Yue Xun didn't open his mouth coldly.

"Oh?" The old lady put down the mutton fat jade cup and squinted at her grandson: "State affairs and family affairs? ”

"Family and country affairs." Yue Xun's eyes were firm.

The old lady looked at the Wei family: "The prefect's wife is about to celebrate her eightieth birthday, you go to the treasury and send the fine white jade Guanyin." ”

"Yes, Mother." Wei knew that the old lady wanted to get rid of her, and she didn't care, she was not as far-sighted as her mother-in-law, as a deep woman, she was more suitable for her husband and children.

After Wei left, the old lady instructed the people waiting in the house: "You all stand down, the winter solstice is outside the house, and the idle people are not allowed to enter without my orders." ”

"Yes."

Canglan and Dong Solstice led everyone down, while the two stayed outside the house, not leaving an inch.

"Grandmother, it's better for me to avoid it." Looking at the posture of the grandfather and grandson, it seems to be a great event.

"Not necessarily."

"No, you don't."

The grandfather and grandson opened their mouths tacitly, and the old lady glanced at her grandson and held Rou Yun's hand: "You are already my Yue family, I trust you, and I trust you, it stands to reason that your mother-in-law should also be there, but she is too worried and knows too much, but it only adds to her troubles, so she only keeps you." ”

"Yes." Since the old lady has said it, Rou Yun sat down obediently.

"Okay, just say anything." The old lady filled herself with another cup of tea.

"Huo Yan came yesterday."

"Oh, the Sixth Highness has come down, and I haven't even informed it, and the Yue Mansion can't be entertained." That being said, the old lady's tone was flat, Huo Yan was a child he grew up watching, and he was a good friend with Xingzhi, so he never paid attention to these.

Huo Yan? Rou Yun remembered the person she met yesterday, he claimed to be Huo, and he was really a member of the royal family, but he didn't expect it to be the sixth prince who has been virtuous for a long time. Rou Yun was slightly shocked, but regained her composure.

"Your Highness Sixth is here this time, I'm afraid it's not as simple as caring about your injury." After all, the old lady is an old fox, and she sees things very thoroughly.

"He came here for two things." Yue Xun's long eyelashes drooped slightly: "First, he has found the medicine sect and found a way to help me treat my leg disease." ”

Rou Yun raised her head, her eyes were full of expectations, and the old lady was also excited: "Really? It's so good, your father and brother sent people to search for it to no avail, but now the Sixth Highness has found it. ”

"Yes." Yue Xun had doubts about this matter, but he still didn't say it.

"His Royal Highness the Sixth will not help you for no reason, even if there is a friendship between you." The old lady calmed down before she thought about this.

"The second condition is that Huo Yan wants the Yue family to help him seize the reserve." Yue Xun said truthfully.

Rou Yun sighed in her heart, such a big event, no wonder he had to retreat from everyone, but if it is heard by someone with a heart, it will be a big crime of rebellion, and it will punish the nine clans.

The old lady also frowned, and she didn't know that she had sprinkled some of the tea in her hand, and the ancestors of the Yue family fought together with Emperor Shun to fight in the south and the north, and made great contributions to the establishment of the Li State. The ancestral Xuanwu Iron Cavalry has continued to this day, and its strength is no less than that of the Holy Imperial Forest Army. Even so, the Yue family has never participated in the seizure of the heirs of any dynasty, and it has always been the king who sets up, and the Yue family will support whom, but to the Gong Dynasty is a little different, Emperor Gong suddenly collapsed, and did not leave an edict, so he can only establish a successor inherited by Emperor Qi, and now to Emperor Qi, the prince has been involved many times behind him, Emperor Qi seems to be worried about something, and refuses to set up the prince, watching the princes fight.

"I'm old and can't make up my mind, what do you think?" The old lady didn't want to break the rule that the Yue family would not stand in line, but in this situation, if she didn't make a decision, she was afraid that the Yue family would continue to fall.

"Emperor Qi was afraid of the military power of the Yue family, and now he reuses the literary phase that is not in harmony with the Yue family, and the court is controlled by one of his parties, which is just to suppress it. Now that peace has been negotiated with the Xiongnu and the war in the border has eased, I guess Emperor Qi's next step must be to wait for his father and brother to return to Beijing, so as to take away the military power. ”

"Hmm... So what's the solution? The old lady is also aware of this level.

"Although the Yue family has never said that they are on the side of the prince, but now Emperor Qi is not as good as other previous emperors Shengming, and Wen Xiang is targeting the Yue family everywhere, and the only way to do this is to find a big tree for the Yue family to shelter."

Yue Xun looked at the old lady firmly: "I want to support the six princes." ”

The old lady stared at this grandson, a little trance, this strength is the same as his grandfather, the old lady's eyes are a little moist, she has been in charge of the Yue family for decades, the Yue family men only know how to march and fight, and she is the only woman who guards Kyoto alone, and the battle between the families is far more complicated than the battlefield.

The old lady didn't reply, and Yue Xunguang's hand under her sleeve quietly clenched: "Grandmother? ”

The old lady brushed away the tears from the corners of her eyes, looked at Rou Yun, and her voice was extremely soft: "Yun'er, what do you think?" ”

Rou Yun didn't expect such a big event, the old lady was actually asking her opinion, Yue Xun also looked at her, and seemed to be expecting something, and was stunned for a moment before relieving herself: "Rou Yun is too shallow in the world, I'm afraid that my view is not comprehensive." ”

"It's okay, just say it, right or wrong, I will judge with me."

Rou Yun's hand brushed his sideburns weakly, and he slowly spoke after a little calmness: "The third prince is from Concubine Wen Shu, and there must be Wen Xiang's party behind it. The five princes are mediocre, compared to the emperor, I am afraid that it is more than the emperor, if he ascends the throne, the people of Li will definitely suffer; In this way, the six princes are quite virtuous, and they have always had dealings with the Yue family, and there is no other force behind them. ”

"But.." Rou Yun paused: "Virtuous can also be the appearance set up for everyone, if you want to really see through this highness, you still have to rely on long-term relationship, now, the husband supports the six princes, which can not only cure leg diseases, but also protect the Yue family, which is the most suitable choice." ”

Rou Yun raised her head and saw that her grandfather and grandson were listening carefully, and she was a little flustered: "If you don't speak well, grandmother shouldn't make fun of me." ”

The old lady heard the woman's pleasant voice, only from that unique insight to come back to her senses, which is not good, is too good, long-lived in the deep boudoir of the daughter's house, see things thoroughly, not limited to the house, can talk about the government and political affairs, beyond the reach of ordinary people, and the young self is really similar, the old lady more and more love this granddaughter-in-law, eyes full of appreciation: "If Yun'er is a man, I am afraid that the career is worry-free." ”

The warmth in the room lingered, and Yue Xun's eyes were full of tenderness when he looked at his wife.

"Grandmother is wrong." Rou Yun raised her face slightly, and the corners of her mouth twitched.

"Okay, it's up to you young people to decide, grandmother has been in charge for half her life, and she is exhausted, but you are not alone, behind you is the Yue family, and your wife is standing next to you. Think twice before you act. The old lady stroked her withered and thin hands: "Okay, I won't leave you, young people have to walk more." ”

"My grandson wrote it down."

"Granddaughter-in-law retired."
