XXXI. In the seat

Standing on the gate of the imperial city and overlooking it, half of the capital is shining.

The Xi Yu on this side of the imperial city has almost sat down, and there are constantly female scrolls going to the imperial city to pay tribute to the queen mother, queen concubine and other harems, and the pearls are dotted on the palace road of the imperial city, like a flowing galaxy.

"Governor, look at you." Zhu Chuan pointed in one direction and gritted his teeth, "Look at the two of them sitting together!" ”

Huo Lian looked at what he pointed to, Lu Yizhi was just a newcomer to the Hanlin Academy, even if he was appointed by the emperor, the position in the officialdom was fixed, his seat was at the back of the Hanlin Academy, and there were a large number of people in Wuyang, in fact, he couldn't see it clearly at all.

However, compared to the other men and women who walked around and laughed, the two sat quietly and only talked to each other, and when someone came over, only the man raised his head and laughed, and the woman lowered her head, as if she was timid, so that fewer and fewer people came to them, and it was very conspicuous to stand on a high place and look.

Zhu Chuan's voice came from the side.

"Mr. Xiahou is sick and can't come to the banquet, and Miss Xiahou can't come when she is sick at home."

"This Lu Yizhi turned his head and brought that woman here!"

"It's really amazing, it's really good at exploiting loopholes!"

"I just read the post, it's about my sister, heh, sister."

"He thinks the people in the capital are easy to deceive? Did he think that no one would come and talk to him, and no one would see him? ”

"Tut-tut, the women in the world who are the sharpest and the most good at spreading the news are here today!"

"I'm sure that the news will reach Miss Xiahou before the banquet is over."

"Well..... if you don't get it....."

Zhu Chuan hugged his arms and snorted twice.

"Governor, let's go and help pass it on."

Huo Lian withdrew his gaze from there and glanced at him: "The Xiahou family has nothing to do for us, it's too much for them to help." ”

Zhu Chuan sighed, but it was also, Xiahou actually has no real power, His Majesty needs to provide these great Confucians as a faΓ§ade, and there is really nothing to be fished from the faΓ§ade.

"But you can get that guy in trouble....." Zhu Chuan came back to his senses again.

They didn't come to see Xiahou's house lively!

It's about looking at the liveliness of the woman, being dragged by Xiahou's family, how lively it is.

Huo Lian glanced over there again, and in the flickering light, she could faintly see the man handing a stack of snacks to the woman next to him, as if asking her to taste it, the woman...... Naturally, I took it.

Whenever there was food in front of her, she didn't let go.

Zhu Chuan's dim sum for indoor furnishings can be eaten by her.

The corners of Huo Lian's mouth twitched, and she said, "Since she can come here, she is naturally not afraid of any trouble." After that, he turned around, "I'm going to pick up Your Majesty." ”

Although he only walked to the gate of the imperial city, there were countless guards and horses, but the vigilance was still extremely strict, especially Huo Lian, who was by the emperor's side all the time tonight.

Zhu Chuan sighed.

Huo Lian stopped when she stepped forward, and instructed Zhu Chuan: "Keep an eye on her, don't let her leave your sight." ”

Zhu Chuan immediately responded: "Don't worry, I won't do anything tonight, just stare at her." ”

……

……

Lu Yizhi watched Qixing bow his head and eat dried fruits, and then looked at the already empty teacup in front of her.

"Drink less water." He whispered, "so as not to be inconvenient." ”

Seven stars snorted, crunching and crushing a dried fruit.

"After a while, the food will be served, just take a look, don't really eat it." Lu Yizhi continued, "This lantern feast is to look good. ”

Qixing looked around, then at the high city gate, and said with a smile: "You people are not here to really look at the lanterns, but to make Your Majesty feel good-looking. ”

Lu Yizhi looked at her: "Don't say much." After that, he looked around, "No matter for whom, not everyone can see such a beautiful scene, and since we have seen it, we should take a good look." ”

Qixing knew that he was thinking too much, and persuaded her not to talk nonsense, so as not to collide with Long Yan, it was okay if she lost her life, but it was not good to implicate him.

"Don't worry, this world is very beautiful, I haven't seen enough." She said, turning the empty teacup.

At this time, someone came here to say hello.

Lu Yizhi laughed with him, and Qixing lowered his head, feeling the prying eyes, this is normal, although no one said anything, but they were very curious about Lu Yizhi coming with a female scroll.

"Is this Miss Lu?"

This time, there were also female rolls, all of them were women, and they didn't have to avoid it, so they asked directly, and stood in front of them to look, but Qixing lowered his head, because the pearls on the bun of his hair were shaking his eyes again, and he couldn't see clearly.

Lu Yizhi didn't say yes or no, only smiled and said: "I haven't been out, and I don't even dare to speak." ”

Seven Stars bowed his head and bowed to the woman.

The woman smiled and said, "Let's go more in the future, Miss Xiahou didn't come this time, otherwise someone would accompany her." ”

Lu Yizhi smiled, didn't answer this question, and only said: "After seeing this meeting, you can go home, enough for her to talk at home for a year." ”

The woman was amused and stopped to ask again.

Although it was inconvenient for the young women to come over, it did not prevent them from looking this way from time to time.

"If you want to see Lu Gongzi, you can watch more." A young lady whispered, "Take advantage of Aqing's absence." ”

The other ladies chuckled.

"If A-Qing is here, let's just go over and take a look."

"That young lady doesn't know her, and it's not easy to talk, and Lu Sangongzi looks like he refuses to go thousands of miles for fear of frightening her."

"Say it's my sister." Suddenly, someone said, "Do you think, like?" ”

These words made several young ladies look at them, and they were inexplicably quiet for a moment, and the next moment the chaotic voices sounded again.

"How do you know, we can't even see what she looks like."

"What do you mean by that, it's not my sister, what else can it be?"

These words caused the voices to pause again, and each saw the twinkle in their eyes.

"I think it's ....." A young lady's hesitant voice rang out, "Where have I seen her?" ”

All eyes were on her.

This young lady's status is not low, she is one of the best families in the capital, and the occasions she can attend are not just any aristocratic lady in the capital can see, such as today's imperial city lantern banquet, most people will only officials and wives to participate, and children will not bring it, so as not to cause trouble for a while without the children's behavior and words.

"Where have you seen it?" Others were puzzled.

Lu Hanlin's parents were not in the capital, and most of them only went to the banquets of the officials, unless Mrs. Xiahou occasionally took them into the inner house to see the female scroll.

"Miss Xiahou has already taken this young lady to the banquet?"

"Impossible, such a big thing, why didn't I know?"

The ladies were talking.

The young lady looked puzzled: "No, I'm ....." At this point, he stopped again, "It's too far away, I can't see clearly, I just feel, maybe it's wrong, it's unlikely." ”

It is unlikely that there is a guess, the ladies are curious to ask, at this time there is a drum music from the imperial city, and a team of attendants also gush out from within, this is the emperor is coming, no matter how curious the woman's identity is, it can't compare to Your Majesty, and the ladies are busy dispersing, and they each return to the elders and sit down.

"Greetings to Your Majesty."

Everyone saluted and greeted in unison.

Outside, the royal street also resounded with earth-shattering cheers.

"Long live Your Majestyβ€”"

Qixing followed Lu Yizhi and bowed, and then raised his head to look ahead, the emperor stood still under the embrace, although there was still some distance, but standing here, coupled with the bright lights of the city gate, you could see the smile on the emperor's face.

It's not like the people who used to stand on the royal street and could only see the yellow people of Mohu.

It's not like in Xiu Neisi, you can only thank the emperor for the imperial gift.

…..

…..

After the arrival of the emperor, the banquet began, more lanterns were lit, and the court musicians sang and danced, like a fairyland on earth.

The emperor was very happy, and a family of officials was constantly invited to face the saint.

Especially many people who have already resigned and returned home, or who are highly respected, are not in the court, this is an opportunity to meet the emperor.

The attendants kept shuttling through the banquet, with the envy of everyone, and their eyes suddenly stopped on the side of the Hanlin Academy.

The officials of the Hanlin Academy were not without surprise.

With such a feast, His Majesty naturally needs to compose poems and memorize them in detail, which is enough for them.

"Your Majesty is going to test whose poetry talent this time?" One of the principals asked with a smile.

The waiter smiled and nodded his name, Lu Yizhi was the youngest among them.

Although everyone was a little envious, they also guessed that Lu Hanlin was a disciple of Mr. Xiahou, Mr. Xiahou was not there, but the emperor would not forget him, Lu Hanlin was also an official appointed by the emperor, not to mention, Lu Hanlin was still young and good-looking.

Lu Yizhi got up in response, and under the sight of everyone, he followed the inner servants with several officials and walked towards the emperor's place.

Zhu Chuan, who was standing in the shadow of the lantern opposite, didn't look at Lu Hanlin, only at the woman.

The woman was finally willing to raise her head, and looked at Lu Yizhi with joy on her face.

"Look at the way she laughs." Zhu Chuan snorted, turned his head and said to the people around him, "Isn't it just that she was called to compose poems, what does it have to do with her." ”

The guard next to him smiled and said, "Of course it matters, isn't there a saying that the husband and wife are honored." ”

Zhu Chuan snorted: "Return your wife, dream, what's the matter with her, she really thinks it's ....." As he spoke, he turned back to look at the woman again, and suddenly his tongue slipped and hit his teeth, giving him a cry of pain.

His eyes widened.

"What about people?"

Lu Yizhi had already left, the woman was gone, and the seat was empty.
