Don't make trouble, let's build infrastructure!
Chapter 113 Step 13
Tong Ran made the dumplings and drove away while pressing the key to the palace gate. Su Quan, who was accompanying him, was sweating and kept urging the coachman, but in the end he still couldn't catch up.
The guard at the gate knew Su Quan, and tactfully expressed that the key to the palace gate had been unlocked, so they asked them to come back tomorrow.
Su Quan knocked on the carriage, and Tong Ran poked his head out from inside and said, "Grandpa Su, wait a moment."
"My lord Tong, this... has already been keyed, and it is impossible to open it without His Majesty's handwriting." Su Quan said.He reminded Tong Ran when he was making the dumplings, but it was useless. The lord took his time and adjusted the seasoning for the meat stuffing by a couple of minutes. In the end, he really missed the time to release the key to the palace gate.
Tong Ran smiled mysteriously and put down the curtain.
He picked up the jade pendant that had been worn around his waist, put it in his palm, closed his eyes and concentrated.Righteousness flowed from the altar and slowly poured into the jade pendant through his fingertips. It took a lot of money to drive this jade pendant every time he was at the Xuan level, and he could only speak a few words at most. Finally, I didn't feel so tired anymore.
That's about enough for a short conversation.
Tong Ran made a rough calculation in his heart.
"What's the matter?" Yupei connected, and a low voice came out.
"Your Majesty, I made dumplings for you. Unfortunately, it's a bit late and the palace gates have been locked." Tong Ran said, a little flattering, like a child complaining.
The jade pendant was still shining brightly, but the person on the other end of the call was silent.
"Your Majesty?" Tong Ran yelled again, and added nervously, "The dumplings have already been made, if they get cold, they won't taste good."
Someone on the other side seemed to be sighing, and it seemed to be Tong Ran's illusion. He heard a "tsk", and guessed that the person on the other side opened his mouth, but he didn't make a sound, or closed it again.
"Your Majesty, forgive me, I shouldn't disturb you late at night." Tong Ran said again, his tone lowered, "I will come back another day."
"Are you at the east gate or the west gate?" The person opposite finally spoke again.
"East Gate." Tong Ran said, with the corners of his mouth raised, a little smug.
Yupei darkened, probably because the other party had terminated the call, and the righteousness that was crazily swallowed by Yupei finally stopped. Although he didn't want to feel exhausted like before, Tong Ran still felt tired.
"My lord." Su Quan's voice sounded outside again. He had just negotiated with the guards at the gate, but he returned without success, "They won't let you in, let's go back."
Late nights at the end of the year are not easy to endure. He tried to warm up his body with righteous energy, but it was not enough.
"Grandpa Su, come in and warm up, we'll be in in a while." Tong Ran opened the corner of the curtain and said.
Su Quan didn't know that Tong Ran had a way to contact Chu Jun, so he was full of doubts.
Tong Ran didn't explain, just asked him to come in.
About two minutes later, just as Su Quan opened the curtain to look out again, a small door next to the east gate opened, and an eunuch with a dust whisk in his hand appeared outside the door.
"It's Su Jin." Su Quan recognized it at a glance, and was very surprised.
"Boss Su is here to pick us up." Tong Ran said with a smile, and he picked up the dumpling box covered by the quilt and got out of the car.
From a distance, Su saw a person getting off the car with a quilt in his arms.
At this time, there will be no idlers at the gate of the palace, and it could only be Tong Ran who His Majesty asked him to pick him up.Su Jin trotted over and saluted Tong Ran: "Your Majesty is already waiting, Master Tong will follow you in."
Really came to pick him up.Su Quan was a little less surprised than before, but his heart was pounding. It seemed that he still underestimated Tong Ran's status in His Majesty's heart.Fortunately, I was cautious and never said or did anything to offend him, and this Su Jin was the same, I didn't know how to mention a few words to myself, fortunately they are still from the same school.
Tong Ran successfully entered the palace gate after releasing the key, but Su Quan couldn't follow in, so he left in a carriage.
Tong Ran followed Su Jin, unimpeded all the way, and soon came to the warm pavilion behind the main hall of the Xuanshi Hall.
Chu Jun sat leisurely on a few sides, waved Su Jin and the others away, raised his eyebrows and said, "What dumplings are worth sending at night?" He said while looking at the ball of quilt in Tong Ran's hand.
"Your Majesty, don't be surprised." Tong Ran put the quilt on the table, spread it out, and took out the food box inside, "It's really because the weather is too cold, if you only use the food box, the dumplings will be cold in a while, so I don't like it." Wrapped in a quilt all the way."
Tong Ran took out the dumplings, hung his hand over the dumplings, and tested the temperature: "Look, it's still hot."
Tong Ran bent down while putting the dumplings, and looked up at Chu Jun at this moment, smiling innocently, and the dimple on the right cheek seemed to be deeper.
Chu Jun took a few steps forward, and Tong Ran straightened up, still looking up at him.
Tong Ran stood casually, and when Chu Jun approached, the toe of the dragon boots touched Tong Ran's. He supported the edge of the table with one hand, and trapped Tong Ran in front of him with an extremely domineering and ambiguous posture.
"Tong Aiqing came all night just to deliver a plate of dumplings?" Chu Jun pinched Tong Ran's earlobe with the index finger and thumb of his right hand, turned it gently, and stared at him emotionlessly.
Bang bang bang.
Tong Ran's heart beat faster, he pressed against Chu Jun's chest, but felt powerless.
The person in front of him was like a mountain, and he couldn't shake it in the slightest.
"Dumplings are for Chinese New Year," Tong Ran said.
A chuckle rang in his ears, and Chu Jun almost murmured: "Dacheng doesn't have such a custom, is this what you dreamed about?"
Tong Ran bit his lip, he panicked and said the wrong thing again.
After waiting for a long time, Tong Ran neither said yes nor said no, but bit her lower lip, not knowing what she was thinking.
He was so close that he could even hear his breathing clearly.Chu Jun's thumb resting on Tong Ran's left ear lobe suddenly lifted up, and gently brushed against his left cheek.
Tong Ran shuddered subconsciously, but couldn't escape.
"Eat dumplings." Chu Jun let go of him, took two steps back, and walked around to the other side of the table.
He clapped his hands twice, and immediately a waiter brought in bowls, chopsticks and vinegar, there were two servings in total.
Tong Ran sat down dumbfoundedly, and also ate two, but he didn't know the taste.His mind went blank.
"Why don't you talk? Didn't you want to deliver dumplings to me?" Chu Jun said, "It's delicious."
"I don't know what to say." Tong Ran muffled.
"When you were testing me, didn't you have a lot of ideas?" Chu Jun chuckled.
Tong Ran stared at Chu Jun fiercely: "Your Majesty knows?"
"You have a lot of tricks, I guessed it." Chu Jun said, some of the prefaces were inconsistent.
Tong Ran stopped talking, he felt like he was caught cheating in the exam.
"I'm serious." Chu Jun said after eating another dumpling.
"Although it's absurd for me to say this, I always have hope... I want to wait for someone." Chu Jun said.
He put down his chopsticks and didn't say any more.After getting used to the dragon chair, he has almost forgotten how to show his heart, and being able to tell Tong Ran about this is already his best effort.
Tong Ran became nervous, and subconsciously bit her lip.
"Don't be nervous." Chu Jun said, "I won't force you to do anything you don't want."
Saying these words at the moment seemed a bit ambiguous, several images flashed through Tong Ran's mind quickly, and her face was as red as if on fire.
"Tong Ran." Chu Jun said, "I don't know, but I have this honor?"
These words were very clear and blatant, Tong Ran's breathing was stagnant, it was his fault, he shouldn't have come here today.
What kind of temptation, so what if you know it, so what if you confirm it, he... He has never thought about it, and it is impossible.Tong Ran's mind was in turmoil, he stood up abruptly, "Your Majesty, take it easy, I'm going back first."
After Tong Ran finished speaking, she turned around and rushed out regardless of the etiquette before the emperor.
Now that the palace gate has been locked, he can't go out without a hand, Tong Ran rushed out of the main hall, Su Jin trotted up and asked him what he needed, Tong Ran said after a while: "I'll go to the side hall to rest."
Su Jin had already seen that something was wrong with Tong Ran, but Tong Ran didn't give him a chance to ask, and went straight to the side hall.
Because no one lived in the side hall, the charcoal basin was not lit, so Tong Ran ignored it and closed the door.
He sat down in the dark and cold room, fiddled with the complicated patterns on the side of the table, and repeatedly sketched them.The patterns are like the emotions in his mind at the moment, ups and downs, intertwined.
Although he has known Chu Jun for two or three years, he rarely sees him. With Chu Jun's status, how can he not meet such an outstanding person?How could you notice him alone?
If it were another person, Tong Ran would definitely not believe it, but if it was Chu Jun... Tong Ran neither believed it nor could she not believe it.
He felt that Chu Jun was not someone who would joke about such things.
He lived in the Xuanshi Palace for so many days, and he knew very well that even in the most relaxed years, this young king did not have any pleasure-seeking activities. If he did, it would be about today.
Tong Ran's face burned again.
"Master Tong." Someone outside knocked on the door.
Tong Ran hurriedly patted his face to make his face look normal, and then said, "Come in."
A servant serving him came in and said, "My lord, forgive me. I didn't know that my lord would come back tonight, so I didn't make a charcoal basin." He was holding a box of silver charcoal in his hand.
"It's okay, you can do it." Tong Ran said.
At this time, the hall of Xuanshi was also silent.
Su Jin bowed and entered the Nuan Pavilion, and reported: "The young one has already woken up the servant, and the charcoal basin will be born soon, don't worry, Your Majesty."
"En." Chu Jun responded, and finished the last dumpling, "If he wants to leave the palace tomorrow morning, don't stop him."
"Your Majesty, Mr. Tong may just not understand it for a while, and His Majesty will announce him in two days." Su Jin said.
Chu Jun glanced at him: "You can see clearly."
Su Jin said awkwardly: "The little one only hopes that everything will go well for His Majesty."
Chu Jun smiled wryly: "If I'm happy, I'm afraid he won't."
Su Jin opened his mouth, but did not say any words of comfort in the end.
After a moment of silence, Chu Jun said again: "You go down too, and let me be quiet."
"Yes." Su Jin bowed and stepped back.
As Chu Jun expected, Tong Ran left the palace early the next morning, taking both Mao and Dongqing away.
He wanted to pick up the little tiger again and live in the inn.But the matter of the steam train was not over yet, he always wanted to go to that Zhuangzi, and he didn't do anything more in the end.
Contrary to what he expected, Chu Jun never came to Zhuangzi again, and his couch was still reserved, but was later taken by the little tiger.
Probably because he was angry that he took the cat back, the little tiger began to ignore him again, and was often in a daze.At night, she resolutely refuses to share the bed with Tong Ran, and would rather share the emperor's dragon couch with her cat son.
For this reason, Tong Ran was so jealous that he tried many times to get the little tiger back, but in vain.
"Wow." The kitten has grown up again, it got into the bed, and behaved very well when it rubbed against the tiger father.
The little tiger didn't chase it away, but it didn't respond either.
Tong Ran leaned forward and tried to touch the little tiger.
"Wow!" The tiger clapped its paws and opened his mouth.
The author has something to say: Thank you Yingming and Weixi for feeding mines, love~
Thank you for your support, okay!
The guard at the gate knew Su Quan, and tactfully expressed that the key to the palace gate had been unlocked, so they asked them to come back tomorrow.
Su Quan knocked on the carriage, and Tong Ran poked his head out from inside and said, "Grandpa Su, wait a moment."
