Chapter 180: Anything but the Palace
This time it was Yuan Xi's turn to be at a loss, she couldn't discuss with Rong Zhan, Rong Zhan's injury was not healed, and she couldn't trouble him at this time. Yuan Xi silently drank a cup of bitter tea, and the little maid in the prince's mansion had already changed the dim sum two or three times, but Yuan Xi still didn't move.
The little girl was a little anxious and wanted to tell Rong Zhan, but was stopped by Yuan Xi. It's not that the dim sum isn't exquisite, it's not that it doesn't match her appetite, it's just that she can't eat anything at this time.
Xiao Rongshen is lustful, why didn't he find out that he had this problem before?
Maybe Yuan Jia can be called an accident that time, because they had such a leg in the previous life, so how can Yuan Yue explain what happened to the Flowing Frost Girl? Even now, even Yuan Yue has not let go.
Yuan Xi lowered her head and gently stroked Yuan Yue's sideburns, she drank a bowl of tranquilizing decoction and fell asleep, Yuan Xi put down the curtain and sat under the orchid marquee in the corridor, today it was her turn to insomnia.
Looking up at the spinning marquee, the yellow light shines through the silk-thin rice paper, illuminating the hand-painted orchids on the rice paper. The mottled circles of light sometimes fall on the face, the moonlight is like water, and the night is as quiet as if even time has stood still.
Yuan Xi raised his hand to pick up the big red spike that fell from the marquee.
"Xi'er. ”
I don't know how long I sat there, and when I heard someone calling her, Yuan Xi looked up, and it was Rong Zhan. Dressed in a big coat, he has been standing behind her for a long time. He slowly squatted down, in front of Won-hee's knees, his hands were very hot, and he wrapped Won-hee's hands tightly inside.
"What's wrong? I've been in a daze lately. ”
Yuan Xi slowly turned his gaze to Rong Zhan, his eyes were as tender as honey. Won-hee loves those eyes the most, because seeing them is like bathing in a quiet afterglow.
Yuan Xi shook his head: "It's nothing. ”
"Still can't tell me about it?" asked Rong Zhan softly.
Yuan Xi nodded, Rong Zhan smiled gently, got up and sat on her left, and reached out to stop her into his arms. He still has the same attitude, if you don't want to say, I won't ask, if you don't want me to know, I will never guess. Yuan Xi leaned on his shoulder, and his heart was warm, so he put his hands around his waist: "If we could meet in the previous life, how good it would be." ”
Rong Zhan ate and laughed, fool, people are looking forward to the next life, how can she look forward to the past life?
"Maybe we loved each other in our last life and agreed to come to each other in this life. Rong Zhan said.
Yuan Xiwaner smiled, put his cheek on his shoulder and did not speak. He didn't know about that short past life, that ridiculous marriage, and that sinister husband. Fortunately, the previous life was a dream, and the nightmare woke up for the rest of his life.
"Then do you want to make an agreement with me in the afterlife?" asked Won-hee, looking up.
Rong Zhan thought seriously for a while, then shook his head: "Don't." ”
"Huh?" Yuan Xi struggled and stared at him with a pout: "You don't want to?"
"Ah!" Rong Zhan subconsciously covered his wound, Yuan Xi was worried again, and hurriedly went to check: "Did you touch your wound, let me see." ”
Seeing her angry and anxious look, Rong Zhan only felt extremely cute, and couldn't help laughing: "In the next life, I can find you with my eyes closed." When I crossed the bridge, I told Meng Po that the two of us should hold hands and cross the bridge together. ”
"Ahem, what are you doing?!"
only heard a slightly muffled scolding sound behind him, Rong Zhan snorted, causing a faint pain in the wound, and hurriedly let go of Yuan Xi.
Yuan Xi turned around to look, and a man in an ink-colored cloak was standing behind him, holding Qin Shun's collar in his hand. The brim of the man's hat was so long that he couldn't see his face clearly, except for a faint hint of black and white beard. Yuan Xi's thoughts were in a trance, and he could hold Qin Shun in his hands, could he be a martial arts master?
Rong Zhan endured the pain and walked out of the corridor: "Erchen greets his father, long live my father, long live long live." ”
The emperor's knees weakened, and he knelt down like a free fall. Before kneeling down, he didn't forget to glance at Qin Shun with the afterglow of his eyes, he was not well-informed, and he was easy to be caught. Yuan Xi felt that her face was flushed with shame, Mom, is she the physique that will be caught when she hugs?
Awkward, embarrassing!
Qin Shun was very aggrieved, but he wanted to report when he saw the emperor from afar, who knew that the eunuch Xu Wenliang Xu next to the emperor was a top master, and he pressed him to the wall within three moves. Alas, I was still unconvinced in the past, but now I know that I don't have any real ability to stay by the emperor's side for so long?
The emperor stretched out his hand to help Rong Zhan up, and looked at him dotingly: "The wound is better?"
Rong Zhan bowed slightly: "Erchen is fine." ”
The emperor looked Rong Zhan up and down: "Although he is young and strong, he can't be careless." You are now the prince of Da Chu, the important weapon of the country, and you must not make a mistake. ”
"Father Xie cares. Rong Zhan knelt down on his knees: "Father, Zhan'er doesn't know whether to talk about something or not." ”
The emperor was stunned: "Let's hear it." He looked around, moved to sit under the cloister, glanced at Yuan Xi, and quipped, "Aren't you tired on your knees?"
"Huh?" Yuan Xi stared at the emperor with a pair of ignorant eyes: "Tired...... Right?"
The emperor sneered, thinking that she was too stupid to be like this: "Can't you get tired yet?"
Yuan Xi inexplicably felt that the emperor was a little humorous, patted the soil on his knees, and stood up.
"Say, I listen. The Emperor clasped his hands in his arms, and from time to time raised his eyes to look at the frequently rotating marquee above his head.
"The child can't afford to be the prince, and he asks his father to take back his fate. Rong Zhan said.
The emperor raised his eyebrows, but he was not too surprised, and made an assumption indifferently: "If you can't afford it, who else can?"
Rong Zhan arched his hand and said: "The position of the prince, the child should not give up, but the child has not made any achievements at this time, and he is appointed as the prince, which will make people dissatisfied." ”
The emperor also felt very helpless, at this time, the four seas were leveled, even if he wanted to make contributions, he couldn't find a chance. You can't go to a neighboring country to fight for the sake of the prince's achievements, which is too good and a great achievement.
"My son is benevolent and filial, and the pacification of Donglin has already made great achievements, and it is natural to be established as a prince, and when I will establish a prince, do I still need the consent of the courtiers?" The emperor said resolutely: "You have long been the only candidate for the crown prince, and in the past twenty years, I have never considered others." ”
After the emperor finished speaking, he turned back and asked Yuan Xi very seriously: "You say, is what I said right?"
"Right...... Right?" replied Won-hee resolutely. It's not that she defected to the emperor so quickly, but who dares to say that he is wrong in front of the emperor?
When the emperor said this, Yuan Xi suddenly felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with it, but he just wanted to make the princes angry.
Just thinking about it, the emperor suddenly changed his words and said to Yuan Xi: "It is better to choose a day than to hit the day, two months later, the second day of the crown prince's canonization ceremony is also an auspicious day, and you and the prince will get married at that time." ”
Will he be too anxious after two months of marriage? Yuan Xi hesitated for a while, although the political situation in Donglin had stabilized, the new army trained by Li Yue was still just beginning to take shape. I'm busy getting married at this time, won't it seem too serious?
Seeing that Yuanxi was a little hesitant, the emperor asked, "What's the matter? ”
"Huh?" Yuan Xi was stunned, when did she bother with congratulatory gifts? Yuan Xi waved his hand again and again: "Your Majesty, that's not what the courtiers meant." ”
"You don't have to worry about your father's official position, how about being the head of the inner government?" the emperor asked again.
Yuan Xi was stunned again, and this is not what she is worried about! Yuan Xi waved his hand again: "Your Majesty, the courtiers are not ......."
"That's worrying about the marriage room. The emperor pondered for a moment: "I have a palace, and I will also give you two gardens in the south of the city." ”
"No, no, no......"
Yuan Xi closed his mouth tightly, what if he continued to say it, what if the emperor rewarded the palace as well.
"Except for the palace, whatever you want, I will give you everything. The emperor looked at Yuanxi silently for a while: "I couldn't stand your father and mother back then, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have to suffer so much." You can tell me anything you like, and I will do my best to compensate you. ”
Rong Zhan said with a smile: "This doesn't have to worry about the father, the son will treat her well." ”
The emperor's eyes were a little cloudy, remembering that when Princess Hanzhang got married, he tried his best to create the grand wedding that shook the capital, how much he hoped that his little cousin could be carefree forever, but that kind of day was only a short few years.
He was very anxious, anxious that he could use his wings to take care of them for a few years when he was in his prime, watch them stabilize, and watch Rong Zhan grow into a great Chu emperor who stands up to the sky.
"Okay," the emperor stood up, covering half of his face with a large cloak and hat, "Tomorrow I will call the craftsmen of the Inner Mansion to cut the auspicious clothes for the crown princess." Prince, after you get married, give your brothers a first-class title. ”
The emperor looked at Rong Zhan silently for a moment and patted him on the shoulder twice.
The first prince's order turned out to be to add officials to several princes? The emperor's invitation to buy people's hearts was really perfect. The third master, the fourth master, and the fifth master have not yet been titled, Rong Zhan has made a difficulty, and it is also difficult to choose the title.
He hesitated for a long time before he made up his mind, and the third master Rong Yan settled on the word Xiang, which means to assist, and the third master was erudite, so he naturally understood his intention to win over. The fourth master, Rong Cheng and Xiao Rongshen, have always been on good terms, so they set a word of etiquette, that is, they want him to be polite. The fifth master is so quiet, he likes to worship the Buddha, and his body is not good, Rong Zhan thought about it again and again, and set a word of An, which is in line with his temperament, and second, it is also a good wish.
and Xiao Rongshen, the king of the county, and Xiao Rongrun, the king of Baojun, were each promoted to one level and crowned the prince.
When Rong Zhan packed up his pen and ink and "Erya", it was already early in the morning, and it was not easy to choose a few words, and his eyes were red. He rubbed his eyes and stood up, just in time Yuanxi came in with a bowl of warm vegetable porridge: "Drink the porridge and then go to sleep." ”
Rong Zhan covered his wound and sat down slowly. The porridge was boiled so well, the rice grains were soft and glutinous, and they melted as soon as they were sipped. The fine minced meat and diced vegetables were salty and light, and Rong Zhan drank a bowl, feeling that his body was hot and his fatigue was gone.
The head of the jaw looked at Yuan Xi, and Rong Zhan smiled: "Father is in a hurry for me to marry you, as if you were born to my father." ”
Yuan Xi hugged his waist: "It's good to know, if you dare not hurt me, the emperor will be angry for me." ”
Rong Zhan smiled and said silently in his heart: I hurt you the most.
