Chapter 54 [Wu Si] Meet the mandarin ducks

As soon as the matter of the Wang family came out, many positions were immediately vacant inside and outside the court.If there is a vacancy in an official position, someone will naturally fill it.

The replacements were all arranged in just half a month, and even Sun Jiaqilang, the former supervisory censor Sun Peng of the Jiangnan East Road, was also able to be mobilized because of this.

But he was transferred from Jiangnan East Road to Longyou Road.

This looks like a flat transfer, but it was transferred from Jiangnan Dongdao to Longyou Dao, and the job was still to monitor the censor, but from the geographical location, it was more like Zuoqian.

Longyou Dao is one of the ten Dao Dao Dao. Because it covers a vast area and is located in the frontier on three sides, its geographical location is extremely dangerous. Therefore, Longyou Dao is also the place with the most war disputes among the ten Dao Dao Dao.There are not a few civilians and military households who die here every year due to war disasters, not to mention the relatives of officials who were exiled here.

In Shanlong Youdao, there have been six or seven supervisory censors in recent years, all of whom died in war.

Today's Longyou Dao still has a few supervisory censors. Among them, the oldest and longest-serving one is Cai, who is a pure minister. In terms of qualifications, he should have moved back to the capital long ago.

Sun Peng's decisive handling of the Changzhou matter was praised by many ministers, even Emperor Xihe once praised him.

But it took only a moment to talk about meritorious deeds, and Sun Jiaqilang was able to transfer the prosperous Jiangnan Dongdao to Longyou Dao. No matter how you look at it, it seems that he was angered because of the fact that the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince should not be called the former Crown Prince.

What outsiders think, the Sun family, from the old lady Sun to the doorman, don't seem to care, but they still live happily as usual.

Xie Chen still entered the palace during the day, and returned to Sun's residence at night to settle down, but the house he lived in was gradually moved from the place where the Sun's family had placed him to Sun Peng's room.

Occasionally, the servants spread gossip, but they were all taken out by the daughters of the Sun family and beat them severely, and no one dared to say no again in the end.It seemed that seeing the First Prince coming out of their Qilang's room every day was a very common thing.

Sun Peng returned from vacation at Yushitai that day, and only when he entered his yard did he realize that something was wrong with the atmosphere.He looked at Gou Qi who was following behind with his eyes, Gou Qi hurriedly found someone to ask about it, only then did he realize that it was Sun Xian who knew about their going to Xizhou in a few days, stopped Xie Chen and asked to go together.

After entering the study, Sun Peng raised his eyes and saw Xie Chen sitting on the chair, with a few rows of unfamiliar faces kneeling below him, and Sun Xian standing in front of them, with a sad and indignant expression.

"Sister." As soon as Sun Peng entered the room, he opened his mouth and shouted, and then saw Xie Chen waving, walked up to the person a few steps, and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"

Xie Chen shook his head and waved at those people below.The first person saluted respectfully, and immediately led the others out of the room in a hurry.

Sun Xian was still in the room, Xie Chen looked normal, stretched out his hand to hold Sun Peng, and said: "Your sister wants to go to Xizhou with us."

Sun Peng nodded and turned to look at Sun Xian.

Sun Xian, who hadn't shed tears for a long time after reconciliation, stood there for a long time with red eyes: "Qilang, take sister to go..."

Sun Peng remained silent, his fingertips were gently pinched, and then held in the palm of his hand.He thought for a while and said, "Xizhou is too far away, and the road is not safe."

"I'm not afraid, I want to find him."

Sun Xian had already made up her mind, otherwise she wouldn't have forced her way into the study when she knew that Xie Chen was meeting with someone to discuss important matters.

The upbringing of the Sun family and the experience in the East Palace in the past few years are enough to keep her calm and not lie, but Chu Pei...

"At the beginning, Xie Zhang said that he was dead, and he was willing to provide shelter for the living descendants of the Pei family, so I agreed to marry into the East Palace. It was later confirmed that he was still alive. I thought that since I was married, I would like him to be in the West Palace. Live better in the state, marry a wife and have children as soon as possible.”

"But he's not married yet, and I'm divorced. I want to find him. Even if he already has a girl he loves and is about to get married, it would be good if I go to Xizhou to see him again. In this way, I can feel completely at ease." gone."

How could Sun Peng not know Sun Xian's concern for Pei Chu.

Seeing that she could cry as soon as she spoke, Sun Peng would not be willing to refuse, so he immediately broke free from Xie Chen's hand to comfort her.

But his fingers were tightly held in his palm, and he lowered his head and stared.The man glanced at him, his slender fingers brushed across the boy's palm, and then let go suddenly.

"Er Niang can go."

Sun Xian's eyes lit up in an instant, and Xie Chen continued, "I'm afraid it will be hard on this journey, but Erniang can go together as long as she's not afraid."

Sun Xian responded almost immediately, and was about to leave the study after finishing speaking.

She had just stepped out of the study with her front foot, when her back foot stopped suddenly, she turned around, and whispered at the door: "You...you should be more careful during the day, although the elders don't say anything, but there are some things, ahem, some It’s better not to do things during the day.”

After she finished speaking, the door was closed with a "bang".

Sun Peng blushed furiously, couldn't stand it any longer, and was about to leave.

With an arm around his waist, he easily picked him up and put him on the table, but before he could speak, a kiss was already on his lips, which instantly took away all his attention.

The words "declaring obscenity during the day" only had time to flash through Sun Peng's mind, and was soon suppressed by Xie Chen's kiss.

*****

The day to leave for Longyou Road is approaching, and one day before leaving, Sun Peng followed Xie Chen into the palace to meet the Empress Yuan who was in the cold palace.

Empress Yuan's health became worse and worse after each year.Even wearing a thick cloak in winter, I still can't stop coughing.The imperial physicians looked again and again, but still could not find a suitable prescription.There were gradually rumors in the palace that the abolished queen might not be able to make it to the eldest or third prince's enthronement.

It doesn't matter who ascends the throne, the important thing is that the body of Empress Yuan has indeed come to an end.

Seeing that the delicate face of Empress Yuan was completely devoid of blood, Sun Peng was startled and worried: "Aren't those prescriptions effective?"

Yuan Lin was waiting on the side, he shook his head and sighed, "I changed many prescriptions, but they didn't work, and now the empress herself doesn't want to drink any more medicine."

Sun Peng yelled, and hurried to see the Empress Yuan: "Could it be that the imperial physicians can't do anything?"

Empress Yuan was talking to Xie Chen, when she heard Sun Peng's voice, she bent her eyebrows and said with a smile: "This body has been ill for a long time, how can it be cured so quickly."

After Yuan Hou finished speaking, he looked at Xie Chen again.She has always felt guilty about her eldest son, and it is inevitable that she will look at him several times for a long time every time they meet, engraved in her heart.

"Chen'er is not young anymore. Your father said a few days ago that he wanted to see a young lady for you. Tell your mother if you have a crush on any young lady in the capital, so that you can call your father." have a look."

After the new year, Xie Chen is already 25 years old, and soon he will be [-] years old.

A man of this age, looking at Da Chu, most of them already have wives, and most of them have several children, and the oldest should be seven or eight years old.

Xie Chen's situation is a bit special. He has been a monk since he was 12 years old. He has been abstaining from desires for more than ten years.

Seeing Yuan Hou mentioning this matter suddenly, Sun Peng's heart skipped a beat, but he swallowed the words back.

Although there are some things that the grandparents and seniors can silently accept, it does not necessarily mean that other people can also recognize this relationship.

He couldn't help lowering his head to drink the tea, but he couldn't even take a sip of what kind of tea was used to make the tea in this cup.

"Ma'am, I already have a sweetheart."

"Which family's young lady? How old is she this year? How's her temperament?"

"It's the seventeenth year of the new year." Xie Chen paused, looked up at Sun Peng, and said, "He has a good temperament. He is a child of a good family, and I like him."

Empress Yuan was a little surprised: "17 years old. It's not too young, why are you still in the boudoir?"

Xie Chen couldn't help laughing.Sun Peng turned his head away in embarrassment, but Yuan Lin, who was waiting on the sidelines, was a little surprised, and lowered his head to ask if he wanted some more tea.

Sun Peng hurriedly shook his head, said in a low voice that he wanted to relieve himself, and fled out in a hurry.

He didn't know at all that when he left the house, Empress Yuan slapped Xie Chen on the forehead.

"Qilang is still young, you don't want to bully him, be careful when you get old and faded, and he abandons you."

"Because he's not old enough, Er will naturally hold on to him, so that he can't leave him in the future, and he won't be able to meet someone better than Er."

Empress Yuan looked at her eldest son dumbfounded, and reached out to touch his sharp-edged face: "My son has grown up, and he has a happy man."

"Auntie is not strange..."

"What's wrong? Qilang is a good boy. If you like him, mother also likes him. If the daughter is better, there is nothing you can do. As long as you are happy, mother will not object. In the end... it is mother who owes you."

"Qilang is very good. I don't owe you anything, Auntie."

On the night of leaving the palace, all the luggage for the next day's trip has been prepared.Sun Peng went to see Mrs. Sun, and the advice he got was nothing more than information about safety and the places in Longyou Road.Before returning to the room, Sun Peng was suddenly stopped by someone and dragged to a remote place.

"Second uncle, what is this?"

Seeing the small box Sun Junyu handed in front of him, Sun Peng stretched out his hand to take it in some surprise.

Sun Junyu coughed twice, and turned her head: "Some, ahem, something you can use. Remember to give it to His Highness, and buy it if you run out."

ha?

Confused by his second uncle, Sun Peng returned to the room with the box of inexplicable things.Xie Chen was coming out of the shower, his body was still damp, seeing Sun Peng returning to the house, he reached out to help him take off his coat.

"Second Uncle gave me a box of things and said it was useful." Sun Peng undressed while puzzled, "I don't know what it is, but it smells sweet."

Xie Chen opened the box casually, and couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw what was inside.

"what happened?"

"It's okay." After putting away the box, Xie Chen bowed his head and kissed Sun Peng's forehead, "It's a good thing, it can be used."

Sun Peng couldn't think of anything at first, but the big palm on his waist meaningfully descended, hovering in a certain position. If he couldn't guess what it was, he would be a bit stupid.

"Second uncle, he actually... actually gave that kind of thing..."

The two got very close, and Xie Chen could feel that Sun Peng's whole body was burning with embarrassment. The kiss between his forehead followed his eyebrows, passed through the tip of his nose, lips, and chin, and finally landed on the boy's exposed shoulder blades.

"It's not convenient to use at home, but it will really come in handy when we go to Xizhou."

He suppressed a smile, trapped her in his arms, and kissed her delicately.
