cold moon is king
Chapter 24
The day of sacrificial offerings was a rare opportunity for concubines to go out of the palace. Many concubines took the ride, but only Concubine Yun was covered with a thin veil. The emperor rode with Concubine Yun, and the rest of the concubines The concubine felt a lot of unwillingness, but she couldn't deny that this was something they couldn't envy.
Concubine Yun Gui and the emperor sat at the front, Chu Jiangli and Lu Jinyin rode separately, followed closely behind the emperor, followed by the concubines, and after the concubines came the princes.
Lu Jinyin wanted to ride with Chu Jiangli, but Chu Jiangli resolutely refused. No matter how coquettish he was, Chu Jiangli refused to agree. At this moment, he looked at Chu Jiangli with aggrieved eyes.
Similarly, the road to the altar has been under martial law, and the road is empty and there are no people. Even so, those concubines are still very interested, and they faintly hear their whispering voices from behind. Chu Jiangli is finally stared at uncomfortably. After four weeks, when no one was paying attention, he whispered: "Your Highness, watch the road."
Lu Jinyin pursed her lips, withdrew her eyes and looked at the emperor sitting in front of her with aggrieved eyes. Nie Zheng was holding his reins, so there was no need for him to bother on the road.
Chu Jiangli heaved a sigh of relief, adjusted his clothes, held the reins tightly, and looked at the road ahead expressionlessly, but his ears could clearly hear the movements around him.
The voice of the concubine at the back suddenly stopped, and a little laughter spread instantly, even the emperor heard it at the front. Lu Anyan lifted the veil and looked back at his women with interest, "What are you talking about?" Well, you are so happy, tell me?"
Before the concubines could open their mouths, Qu Shuangyun held up half of his hand to support the newly worn golden step on his head, and said quietly: "I have been listening to my sisters talking for a long time along the way, and my concubines really want to join you sisters."
Chu Jiangli: "..."
Concubine An's gaze fell on Chu Jiangli, Lu Jinyin seemed to have noticed it, and when she looked back at her suspiciously, she covered her mouth and smiled lightly: "The concubines are talking about the close relationship between the prince and the concubine. The concubine said that they didn't say a word during the journey." She paused, and said: "The younger sister of Concubine Jing said that they were clearly eyeing each other."
After Concubine An finished speaking, her probing eyes shot straight at the two of them, and the atmosphere instantly became weird. Chu Jiangli lowered his eyes to suppress the surprise in his eyes.And Lu Jinyin looked at Concubine An in a daze, not understanding what happened and why everyone was looking at them.
Hearing this, Lu Anyan turned his eyes around Chu Jiangli thoughtfully. Chu Jiangli held his breath slightly, and forced a smile on his face in embarrassment, both shy and embarrassed.
A chuckle broke the weird atmosphere, and everyone focused their attention on the source of the voice——Qu Shuangyun.
Qu Shuangyun swept across the group of people behind him with a cool gaze like water, and said with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, "Your Highness and the Crown Princess have a good relationship, isn't it happy to see it come true? The two husband and wife will abide by the rules of etiquette without saying a word Can you be slandered like this?"
These words slapped Concubine An in the face, and the smile on her face froze suddenly, but she reacted quickly, raised her hand to lightly cover the resentment in her eyes, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty taught me the lesson."
A higher status overwhelms people.
Chu Jiangli coughed lightly, he gave Qu Shuangyun a slight nod, the rein in his hand was loosened, and Concubine Yun didn't move after the last time, he only thought that he was being paranoid, but now it seems that it may not be the case.
After such a fuss, Lu Anyan had already lost interest, and he couldn't do it if he was asked to reprimand Qu Shuangyun, not to mention that what Qu Shuangyun said was not unreasonable.
He withdrew his hand, and the veil fluttered under the cage, isolating the outside world, and the smile disappeared on Qu Shuangyun's fair face. She looked at the hazy scenery outside the veil, without saying a word.
Lu Anyan tapped the corners of her eyes lightly, and sighed: "What's the matter recently, why are you angry with them, there are fine lines in the corners of the eyes."
Hearing this, Qu Shuangyun lowered his eyes and caressed the corners of his eyes. As soon as he touched them, Lu Anyan grabbed his hand, and the soft and boneless hand stayed in his palm softly. With a kind heart, you always get angry about other people's affairs, and if you get angry, it will be bad for yourself."
Qu Shuangyun pursed her red lips slightly, and looked at Lu Anyan affectionately in her twinkling eyes, and said in a soft voice with her unique Jiangnan minor accent: "My concubine is not kind," her eyes sparkled, and it didn't take a moment It was covered with a layer of water mist, like the green hills after the first snow, hazy, Wu Nong's soft words coaxed the smile on Lu Anyan's face to deepen, "The courtiers are jealous, and they always have so many ways to attract your majesty. look."
Lu Anyan held her hand, his cold brows and eyes softened, showing a bit of heroic tenderness, he smiled and said: "You don't have to be jealous, you are always different from others."
Qu Shuangyun lowered her eyes and leaned gently in Lu Anyan's arms. The jade bracelet on her wrist that had lost its original luster flashed in the sunlight for a moment. She smiled and said, "I know."
There were no mistakes along the way, and when they reached the altar, the two young eunuchs hurriedly lay down on the ground as human stools. Fortunately, only the emperor and Concubine Yun had this honor, otherwise Chu Jiangli didn't know how to escape such a thing.
Concubine Yun Gui said that she is the most beautiful woman in the world, she is definitely not boasting, her soft and fragrant body landed lightly on the little eunuch's back, a puff of rich sweet fragrance came down with the swing of her body, and the little eunuch lying underneath When the eunuch smelled the smell, he was dizzy for a while, and he didn't get up from the ground after Yun Guifei got down for a long time.
The eunuch brought the wooden stool, and Chu Jiangli got off the horse neatly. He couldn't help but glance at Lu Jinyin, only to find that Lu Jinyin had got off the horse steadily, and was staring at him beside Nie Zheng. A puppy abandoned by its owner.
Chu Jiangli pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment, and then walked towards Lu Jinyin. In an instant, Lu Jinyin's eyes lit up, and the autumn light inside was dazzling. Chu Jiangli walked up to him and stopped. Lu Jinyin subconsciously grabbed his sleeve, but he dodged a little, but couldn't bear to reprimand him, so he could only say in a soft voice, "Huai Bing, don't make trouble."
Lu Jinyin withdrew his hand obediently, and looked at his empty palm with aggrievedness. He touched his palm. At this time, Lu Anyan looked back and waved to him, "Huai Bing, come here, come to Emperor Father Come here."
It is rare for Lu Anyan to be so amiable to Lu Jinyin. Lu Jinyin glanced at Chu Jiangli, seemingly hesitant. Chu Jiangli nodded to him calmly, and he ran towards Lu Anyan excitedly. , When he stood still, Qu Shuangyun wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, and said with a smile, "Why are you in such a hurry, you sweat a lot."
Lu Anyan said warmly: "How is your relationship with the Crown Princess recently?"
Lu Jinyin was stunned. He glanced at Chu Jiangli, pursed his lips and remained silent.
Lu Anyan frowned, "Why can't you even speak?"
Qu Shuangyun raised his hand to his lips and coughed lightly, and said, "It must be good, the concubine just saw the prince dismount, and General Chu looked at it with concern."
Lu Anyan looked at Chu Jiangli who stood like a green pine in the distance, and there was no joy or anger in his eyes. "Really? You care about them."
Qu Shuangyun was not afraid, but his voice was a little more sad, "After all, I blamed my concubines... Otherwise, the prince would not be like this now."
Lu Anyan waved his hand, "What happened back then is over, don't mention it again."
Staring at Chu Jiangli with scorching eyes, he had no choice but to go in front of the emperor at this moment, Lu Anyan then withdrew his gaze, and said with a smile: "How do Aiqing and the prince get along?"
Chu Jiangli nodded calmly and said, "Return to Your Majesty, very good."
Lu Anyan hit him with a few more words, and he answered them one by one. Lu Jinyin only regarded him as his father caring about him, with a joyful expression on his face, and a foolish innocence in his handsome eyes.
A few concubines stood not far away and saw this scene, their faces turned cold, Concubine An rubbed the silk and said bitterly: "I am afraid that the imperial concubine is the real mother of the crown prince, so she is rushing to please the crown prince."
Concubine Jing's gaze fell on them for a moment, then she took it back calmly, and said in a low voice: "It is said that the Empress...was somewhat related to the Imperial Concubine at the time, so it is appropriate to take care of the orphans of the former sisters."
Concubine An frowned and said, "Even you help her!"
Concubine Jing sighed helplessly, "Sister and sister are naturally of one mind, why would sister think like this."
Fortunately, the First Prince came over at this time, and Concubine An had no time to argue with Concubine Jing anymore, she had a look of joy on her face, and looked at the Emperor with some fear, and hurriedly said: "Why are you here?"
Lu Jinqi frowned: "Isn't it okay for the son to talk to the mother and concubine? Just because the son has moved out of the palace, the mother and concubine don't want to see the son anymore?"
Concubine An was dumbfounded, she couldn't understand why her son would think this way, she opened her mouth, and it was Concubine Jing who helped her out, "My sister is afraid that His Highness will make trouble with the concubine and make His Majesty unhappy, Your Highness don't want to hurt like this sister's heart."
Concubine An nodded quickly, "That's right."
Lu Jinqi looked at his mother suspiciously, and after a while he spoke again: "I have had a hard time these days."
Isn't it bitter?After going to court and returning to the mansion, he still has to serve the old man. Every day he is afraid that the old man will reveal their dirty things to the outside world. When has he ever served someone in more than twenty years?But being ordered by that person as a servant, he stifled his stomach and still had nowhere to vent his anger. The entire First Prince's House was trembling, so that he couldn't find out a single mistake, for fear of being angered by him.
That uncle came to pester him every night and sang those obscene little songs, even a dude like him who had seen too many romantic things would blush when he heard it, that man is really shameless!
When he thought of this, he gritted his teeth, but the man promised him that he would never tell others about them. Thinking of this, his eyes burned Chu Jiangli's back with resentment. If it wasn't for Chu Jiangli, he wouldn't have fallen to such a point!
Chu Jiangli seemed to sense his gaze, and looked back at them. Gu Jing Wubo's gaze swept over the three of them, and then dand looked away, as if they were insignificant people.
Lu Jinqi's teeth were gritted, and the suffocated anger in his chest was burning. He blamed Chu Jiangli for this. He stared at Chu Jiangli's back, wishing to crush him to ashes. , he took a deep breath, and under Concubine An's terrified gaze, he twitched the corners of his mouth and showed a ferocious smile, "It's all right, I'm leaving, so as not to drag down Concubine Mother."
Concubine An raised her hand to stop him, hesitated for a moment and then put it down.
That's right, she can't help Lu Jinqi with anything.
Concubine Yun Gui and the emperor sat at the front, Chu Jiangli and Lu Jinyin rode separately, followed closely behind the emperor, followed by the concubines, and after the concubines came the princes.
Lu Jinyin wanted to ride with Chu Jiangli, but Chu Jiangli resolutely refused. No matter how coquettish he was, Chu Jiangli refused to agree. At this moment, he looked at Chu Jiangli with aggrieved eyes.
