Chapter 138: In the Snowstorm

For some reason, the snow in Chang'an City in recent years has been earlier than in previous years, Wang Yi sat on a chair, looking at the snowflakes floating outside the window, and didn't know what he was thinking.

When he just got up in the morning, Wang Yi walked out of his room, and the heavy snow outside had already covered the ground in the courtyard, and the snow was covered with snow, which was beautiful.

Wang Yi stretched out a hand, the snowflakes fell in the palm of his hand, Wang Yi blew lightly, and the snowflakes melted in the palm of his hand, very cold, very cold.

A month has passed since the last visit of Lord Liu Qian, and Li Wenxuan's Princess Taiping Mansion has completed all the preparations during this period, and is waiting for the next spring to break ground.

Li Yuan has been busy these days, Wang Yi has seen it in his eyes, although he himself took the initiative to stop this matter in front of His Majesty, but what is behind it, Wang Yi knows in his heart.

Li Yuan hasn't come to Meridian Lane much recently, the reason is that his aunt, that is, the queen mother of the Ming Dynasty, has missed Li Yuan a little recently, after all, Li Yuan had just been born, Princess Yan was weak, and Li Yuan had nothing to eat, so this aunt took the initiative to come to the door with her sister who had just given birth to a child, so that Li Yuan would not go hungry, and none of the royal nurses reassured the queen mother.

Wang Yi glanced at Liu Shuyi, who was also copying books with Wang Si there, the little guy was reluctant at the beginning, and now he came to Meridian Lane early every day, which has changed a lot.

Wang Yi found a rocking chair, lay back, and put his hands on the chair at will.

It's been a year since I came to Chang'an City, and I have changed from a common person to a homecoming, from a reader who can only write articles with a pen, to a real powerhouse today.

Is there a lot to gain, of course a lot, at least I know who the enemy is, and I have the goal of revenge, so what about what I lose?

Wu Qi died, Wu Yong broke with himself, and Lao Li, Su Yun, and Ye Yao didn't know where to go.

An old man I haven't seen in a long time. The four senior brothers haven't seen each other for a long time.

Sometimes when Wang Yi is alone, he secretly thinks about what kind of person he is, why the people around him are more or less unstable, and they will be separated from him in time.

He can see the beggars in tattered clothes on the street, sympathize with them and buy a few buns to put in his bowl, and he will also be unrestrained and indulge in the behavior of those who are engaged in robbery business on the road.

Is it good to be like this?

Then, Wang Yi smiled and felt relieved, this is a normal person.

Just like Wang Si back then, the little guy could go to other people's houses to steal things and fill his stomach, and he would also squat on the broken road, move clods of soil much higher than herself, and pave the road, although this would make her too late to return to the city, but the little guy still did it.

Wang Yi turned his head and glanced at Wang Si who had finished copying the book, Wang Yi's eyes were full of tenderness, and he nodded at Wang Si, Wang Si had a strong smile on his face

, jumped off the chair, abandoned Liu Shuyi, who was slow to do his homework, took his small stool, came to Wang Yi's side, and sat down.

On Wang Si's body, a red cotton coat is very conspicuous, which the little guy strongly asked Qin Keqing to make for her, because Wang Si himself said that red represents festivity, when I was a child, those big families were about to celebrate the New Year, and the doors were full of red lanterns, which were beautiful.

Wang Si sat next to Wang Yi, looking at the heavy snow outside the window, his hands on his chin, quietly in a daze.

Wang Yi said softly: "What's the matter, homesick?"

Wang Si shook his head, where would he have a home, he only had Master, only Sister Qin, and that hateful Ma Shun, and Li Yuan, who always brought chicken legs for himself.

"No, Master, I'm just a little bored. ”

Wang Yi didn't care that Wang Si didn't call himself Mr., but Master, "Is copying books boring?"

Wang thought for a while, "No, it's just that I miss my little sister a little, and I don't know if she's doing well." ”

Wang Yi gently rubbed Wang Si's little head, "Don't worry, I'll let Jinyiwei check in a few days." ”

Wang Si didn't agree, but rejected Wang Yi's proposal, "No need, Master, I'm just thinking about it." ”

Wang Yi sighed slightly, not talking, Wang Si was afraid of causing trouble for himself.

Wang Yi looked at Wang Si, whose two braids were flying, "How can such a good little girl be my apprentice?"

Wang Si smiled and said, "How can such a handsome gentleman happen to be my master." ”

Liu Shuyi, who was still close to completing today's task in the distance, listened to the conversation between Wang Yi and Wang Si, and almost didn't spit it out, this pair of master and apprentice is really thick-skinned.

Wang Yi was about to say a few more words to Wang Si, when Li Yuan kicked open the door of the room, and he couldn't help but shudder with his shoulders white.

"It's really cold to death in this world, it's too cold. ”

Li Yuan walked in the door, went straight to the stove, and put the food box in his hand aside, "Wang Si, there are chicken legs from the imperial dining room in it, go eat it yourself, the master is going to freeze to death." ”

When Wang Si heard that there were chicken legs to eat, he glanced at Wang Yi, and after the latter nodded, he hurriedly ran to Li Yuan's side and opened the food box, and the fragrance of chicken legs inside filled the entire room.

Liu Shuyi, who finished his schoolwork, looked at the chicken leg and drooled, and looked at Wang Si, Wang Si only had chicken legs in his eyes, and he didn't see Liu Shuyi at all.

Seeing this, Li Yuan smiled, "Little Liuzi, go eat, I brought a lot." ”

Liu Shuyi quietly glanced at Wang Si, quickly took the chicken leg with his small hand, squatted aside, turned his back to Wang Si, and ate it.

Li Yuan sat on Wang Si's small stool, patted his clothes, and cleaned up the snowflakes.

"Why, today the Queen Mother called you in again

Palace?"

Li Yuan felt uncomfortable sitting on the small stool, got up again, took a rocking chair, found a blanket, and covered his body.

"Yes, it's the princess's mansion again, the sketch handed in by the Ministry of Industry a few days ago made my aunt not satisfied, so today the Ministry of Works, I, and an old man from the Zongfu were all called over and studied the sketch for a day. ”

"Is Wen Xuan okay?"

Li Yuan smiled, he knew that Wang Sihui would ask Li Wenxuan about the situation, "Very good, now my sisters-in-law are not respectful to her, His Royal Highness the Prince, who just came to Chang'an City from Luoyang a few days ago, also specially gave the imperial sister a copy of the Great Qin Orphan Book that he has treasured for many years." ”

Wang Yi nodded slightly, knowing about Li Wenxuan's matter, he was also relieved and didn't think too much.

Li Yuan put his hand to his mouth and exhaled a breath of heat, even when he was in the house, his hands were still cold, all because he was holding the food box containing chicken legs, but Li Yuan didn't talk about it to anyone.

"There will be a few big things happening in a few days, so you'd better be prepared. ”

Wang Yi frowned slightly, and had some bad premonitions in his heart.

"What's the matter?"

Li Yuan lowered his voice and pretended to be mysterious, "In a few days, my cousin's birthday will come, and my three nephews will come to Chang'an City to present gifts to their father. ”

Wang Yi crossed his hands on his abdomen, this is human nature, it is understandable, but this is a big deal.

As if seeing Wang Yi's doubts, Li Yuan explained: "My cousin is fifty years old this year, and his health is getting worse day by day. ”

In the latter words, Li Yuan did not say anything, what is the result of his body getting worse day by day, that is, he is dying, so who will hand over this huge country to is the most important question.

So this is not only a birthday celebration, but also an opportunity to express yourself, and the key to whether you can inherit the throne.

"This time to celebrate his birthday, the other four feudal kings are not allowed to enter Beijing, so my father will go to Beidaying for a few days first, and will not come back until his birthday is over. ”

Wang Yi nodded, it is reasonable, the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty, without the emperor's will, no vassal king is allowed to leave the fiefdom without authorization, or go to the capital, whether it is Luoyang or Chang'an City.

"One more thing. Li Yuan patted his thigh, "The location of the princess's mansion has been decided, it is what my imperial sister said, so I chose Meridian Lane." So at the beginning of spring, half of the area around Meridian Lane should be cleared to build the Princess Mansion. ”

Wang Yi looked at Li Yuan in disbelief, Li Yuan smiled and nodded again, this is true.

The corners of Wang Yi's mouth rose, he was in a good mood, looking at the heavy snow outside the window, Wang Yi had never felt that the snow scene was so beautiful.

On the official road outside Chang'an City, some people entered Chang'an City in the wind and snow.
