[Caiyun Kingdom] The beginning of people

I waited in the new house for a long time, and when I ate food more than once, Huang Yi was still outside to greet the guests.There was a bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang bang, bang bang, bang bang, bang bang, bang bang, bang bang, bang bang, bang bang, bang bang, bang bang, bang bang, bang bang, bang bang, bang bang, bang bang, etc., mixed with roars and cries for help, I shook my head and laughed.

"Ma'am?" Licorice, who was waiting by the side, asked.

"..." It's such a strange name.The wife of the imperial historian Kui Huangyi has a rather terrifying title.

"Ma'am," Licorice called again, "do you want me to go and see?"

"No." I lifted my hood to let in some air, and said with a smile, "Licorice, look, how wonderful it is to get married." Fame and fortune, "Would you like me to look for you too?" It's just that Juneday is a bit embarrassed to wear a wedding dress , I don’t dare to put on too much makeup, it would be better to switch to spring and autumn.

She whispered: "If you are sad, please speak out, it will hurt you if you hold it back."

I smiled and shook my head, "The other party is Huang Yi, it's a fluke, why bother thinking about it. It's you," I took her hand, "I'm sorry, I should have discussed it with you before leaving."

Licorice shook her head, and squatted on the footrest in front of the bed, "You speak too seriously, Xin Zi is young, and your words are reckless, you don't mind."

"Thank you." Licorice is already the secretary of the Lanzhou Branch of the All-China Chamber of Commerce. Given time, it is possible to go further with her intelligence, but following me is a waste.

"Miss, Licorice is so talkative, may I ask what your future plans are?"

I looked at Licorice, "By the way, do you want to become an official?" Licorice was born in an official family and has a lot of talent and learning. It should be possible to recommend her to Huiqie. Don't waste a great opportunity──Hong Xiuli has experienced Tossing, it is even more difficult for a woman without Hongxiuli's background to become an official. Such an opportunity should be seized.For licorice, it should be aspirational.

Licorice looked at me in astonishment, then shook her head and said firmly, "No, I won't touch my official career."

Licorice's father was a jailed criminal. I remember the first time I saw her, she was living on the street with her sick mother. Her palm-sized face was covered with tears of panic, but she stuck to her mother, unwilling to leave.When she first arrived in Zhangfu, she couldn't do anything, and she was often sick. When her mother passed away, she couldn't afford it, but she survived and became the stronger and more distressed her today.The name Licorice was changed when she decided to follow me.

She lowered her head slightly, and said in a gentle voice: "Among the officials, there are good officials and bad horses. You don't have to worry. Licorice has already understood the truth, and the anger is only for the youthful spirit. But the dwarf tree is still useless. Licorice abandons the officials as if they are worthless because of their own preferences, but it does not mean that they give up their hopes." She smiled slightly, "Even if they are ordinary people and have no power, they will always have something to use. A gentleman is not a weapon." She covered the back of my hand with her backhand and shook it vigorously, "Who said that women are useless at home?"

"I'm not as good as you." I smiled and poked Licorice's cheek.

Licorice froze, dazedly touched the poked cheek, looked at me stupidly and fell on the bed with a smile.

"... Ma'am..." When she came back to her senses, Licorice's cheek twitched fiercely.

While teasing licorice, footsteps sounded outside the door, and Xi Niang and others who were driven outside by me also greeted me.Licorice quickly straightened her face, stretched out her hand to cover my scarf, and I sat down obediently.Hearing a squeak, Huang Yi strode in, and lifted my red hood amid Xi Niang's compliments.

Such a good day...but I couldn't help laughing out loud.

Today's Huang Yi is all in red, with a big silk ball hanging in front of him, hahahaha.Huang Yi gave me a cold look.After all the etiquettes are over, after each grooms and washes, the others retreat, the door is closed, and Huang Yi and I are sitting on the edge of the bed.

"No one is making a new house?" I asked sideways.

He answered with a cold snort.

Okay, I know that no one dares, and those who dare will probably be stopped. If Huang Yi has the heart to stop people, he will always be able to stop them.But I still got up and went to the window to look around, to be wary of Li Shen and others who were said to have run to Jiang Wenzhong's window when he got married.I looked around, and there was no one there, but what happened to the sharp anti-thief steel thorns... I silently closed the window, not thinking about whether these sharp weapons had been used.

"Hungry?" he asked.

"Not hungry," I pointed to the round table full of dishes behind the screen in the center of the room, "Have you seen that half of the table is missing?"

"..." Huang Yi raised his hand and rubbed the center of his eyebrows, "Then let's rest."

"..." I raised my hand and rubbed between my eyebrows.

I have already washed and washed, I just need to help Huang Yi take off his coat.He stood up and I walked over consciously.When I unbuttoned his coat, I twitched the corners of my mouth wordlessly.It turned out that he didn't smoke the incense outside, but only smoked the clothes, so the smell seemed to be there.So particular... who was the one who didn't shave when he was on the road?I turned around to hang up my clothes, but he hugged me from behind.

His clothes became thinner, and his body temperature could be felt more clearly.

"..." Silence is golden, but it seems a bit too much to stand there until my legs ache.I tilted my head slightly and looked behind me, "Huang Yi?"

He let go, "Go and change your clothes." Huang Yi turned around and blew out the candle, leaving only a pair of big red dragon and phoenix candles.

"..." I looked at him speechlessly, turned my back and started to undress him.

When I had only my middle coat left, Huang Yi thoughtfully extended his hand to help me hang the clothes.We looked at each other, and then he led me, and we sat on the edge of the bed slowly, sitting upright.

"..." He looked at me.

"..." Don't look at me, idiot.

He let go of my hand, sideways lowered the bed curtain on one side, and I lowered the bed curtain on the other side as well, then got up on the bed with my feet folded, hugged my knees, and looked at Huang Yi who was sitting cross-legged on the opposite side.

"..." He still had a cold expression, but silently turned his face away.

"..." I also silently turned my face to the opposite direction.

"Stop."

"Um."

Sit well, then lie down and cover yourself with the covers.I blinked and looked at the wedding tent on the top, the red light from outside the tent faintly penetrated.Accompanied by Xixi's frivolous voice, Huang Yi leaned over, then stretched out his arms to hug me, put one hand under my head, the other around my shoulder, and pushed me towards him.

"..."

"..."

"Sleeping." He smoothed the hair on the side of my face, and then patted my head.

"Um."

After most of the night, we still maintained this posture. I thought about it, but still didn't speak; he didn't speak, but he didn't fall asleep either.I tried to slow down my breathing and leaned closer. Huang Yi also tightened his arms slightly.I nudged him, settled into a comfortable position on his neck, and closed my eyes.

...can't sleep.

Huang Yi stroked my long hair repeatedly.

...still can't sleep.

"Want to get up?" His voice suddenly sounded.

I immediately opened my eyes and looked at him without a word, and he was also looking down at me.I silently raised my hand to cover my mouth and buried my face in the pillow──I couldn't stop laughing.Help, we have known each other for many years, so we will still have this kind of time, Huang Yi's expression is really too funny.Huang Yi sat up and let out a low moan in annoyance.

He patted me on the head, "Get dressed and go for a walk."

I turned my head to look at him, "Get out?" It's the middle of the night.

"Walk around the mansion."

Also good.We hung up the bed curtains, put on our coats, opened the door and went out.

When I first came here, I was covered by a turban, but now I realize that there is a wide corridor with an open view outside the door, and it is more than enough to put down a deck chair.Remember that Kui Mansion was not like this before?After a brief glance, Huang Yi led me to the backyard.Along the way, there are brand new decorations, and the occupied area is much larger than before.Huang Yi casually picked up a red lantern on the porch, and helped me down the steps with the other hand, and walked to the garden path paved with flat stone slabs.

The guests were gone, and the Kui Mansion was quiet and elegant at midnight.

Then, among the Yiyi willows, I saw a small lake.

"What are you thinking?" Huang Yi asked in a low voice.

I didn't know the time and asked in such an atmosphere: "It will cost a lot of money?"

Huang Yi closed his eyes fiercely, and I turned my face away to snicker.

Going a little closer, I saw a black shadow in the lake, which turned out to be a small pavilion in the lake.Walking straight to the stone steps in front of the pavilion, I looked up and saw a very familiar handwriting Pai Bian, writing to listen to the rain pavilion.

Of course I am familiar with it, it was written in regular script when I was young, and I can clearly remember even a small crack in the flat corner.This is the one placed in the old house of the Zhang family in Longqing County, Heizhou.I have already sold that house.I froze for a moment, let go of Huang Yi's hand, and then turned around to face the courtyard along the way. Only then did I realize that its layout was based on the Zhang family's old house and slightly modified according to the terrain.

I looked at Huang Yi beside me, he looked at me quietly for a while, then turned around to hang up the lantern.I turned around and rolled up my sleeves to look at this plausible garden.

It's a place where I don't regret leaving, but I still want to come back again if I can.

I used to be afraid to stop, afraid that once I stopped, I would no longer have the courage to continue running. I felt that I would definitely collapse from exhaustion, and the people behind would catch up, and reality would replace me.It is only now that I realize how important a long rest is.

Just a little bit, and I forgot the most important thing.

What should you do when you are chased by a dog?Of course you have to stop, otherwise you will just be chased and run, but in the face of vicious dogs, people always want to run involuntarily, but they don't know it, and those who dare not stop are the weak.

I smiled, folded my skirt and sat down on the stone steps, turned to Huang Yi behind me and said: "I hold black, you hold white."

He sat down on the edge of the stone chessboard in the center of the pavilion, picked up a piece, and nodded.I turned my head, looked at the garden and talked with him.

Take your time, don't rush.

At the end of the game, I still won a small victory.I laughed and said, "Winning is certainly joyful, but defeat is also joyful."

Huang Yi came over, stretched out his hand to pull me up, and then half-embraced me and sat on the long wooden chair built around the edge of the Liujiao Pavilion.I leaned against him, Huang Yi's hand brushed my cheek and landed on my arm.

"It's not a witch who is a disaster for the country," I said with a chuckle, "does it need to be like in a drama?" And build a hometown to relieve homesickness?

"It's up to you."

I laughed out loud.

He pushed me away a little, then straightened up, and handed me the dragon flute at his waist.I looked at him suspiciously.

"Have you wanted to play for a long time?"

I twitched the corner of my mouth, "...so you know?"

"Welfare."

"Aha?"

He said with a wooden face, "Wife's welfare."

Is this a bad joke? "You can't be a fiancee? Ah, so I used to have such no status in your heart?" I said half-jokingly, took the flute he handed over, and looked at it carefully.He really dared not to carry such an antique family keepsake around his waist every day.

"I just want to see when you will ask me to come and play," he said nastyly, "If you don't ask, I won't give it. I haven't dropped the price enough to give it away with both hands."

I shrugged my shoulders, "...I think if I ask you to come to play, I will be beaten by you." No.I coughed dryly and quickly changed my words, "I borrowed it to appreciate it."

"I don't hit women."

cut. "Pull it down."

He raised his eyebrows, "If you have an opinion, speak up."

I laughed and tried to blow under his instruction.It’s just that talent is something that can’t be forced sometimes. It took me a lot of effort to make my first note smoothly.

Playing and joking casually, the night passed without knowing it.

Although it was a sleepless night, our spirits were not bad the next day, so we went to serve tea in the peak season after a little freshening up.None of us have serious elders, but Huang Yi has been raised in the peak season, we still have to serve tea to him, and Ling Yanshu, whom we haven't seen for a long time, is also smiling and sitting on the sidelines to join in the fun.

"Lan Lan's complexion is not very good?" Yan Shu tilted his head, and his slightly curly light golden hair slid to the side with his movements, half covering his face.

I smiled and didn't answer.Firstly, it is not easy to reply, and secondly...the last time I heard about Ling Yanshu was that he planned to set fire to Guiyang after he failed in an incident during the peak season, but luckily he was stopped in time.

Huang Yi took a step forward to block between Yan Shu and me, "What are you doing here so early in the morning? Go back." He said mercilessly in an extremely harsh tone.

Ling Yanshu only regarded Huang Yi as air, turned his head around him, and smiled at me: "Oh, I still hate Jalan Lan in the end."

I saluted him with a wry smile.Whether I hate him or not, Ling Yanshu doesn't care at all.People who have passed through the Daye years will have some strange things.You Shun is, Huang Yi is, and Ling Yanshu is no exception.Although You Shun said that he had something wrong with him, but...

After serving tea to Wang Ji, Huang Yi stretched out his hand to support me, bowed to Wang Ji, turned around and threw Ling Yanshu towards the gate.Ling Yanshu complained to Wang Ji that Huang Yi is a villain, while smiling and waving at me, Huang Yi's face was as cold as hell.I smiled and looked at their backs walking out.

"Zelan." Wang Ji called me.

I bowed to him, "Yes."

"...Congratulations on the wedding." He held back for a long time, and that was all he said.

I suppressed a smile, lowered my head and said, "...Yes, thank you."

After breakfast, I sent off the peak season, and I went to change into the clothes of Mrs. Gaoming embroidered with the family crest of the Kui family. I sat in front of the dressing table and struggled with my hair. Marriage given by decree.Huang Yi, who had already changed into his official uniform, walked out from behind the screen, walked to my side and handed me a pair of white jade earrings.

I picked it up and looked at it, and I thought I would look at jade a little bit, and I always felt that the lines on the jade were a bit familiar... Isn't it the white jade sunflower headdress that I smashed?Well, to be honest, this is the only piece of jade that I can recognize to this level.

"It's beyond my expectation that you will see jade." He stood by the window with his arms folded.

"..." was underestimated.I smiled and put on the earrings that had been re-carved into sunflowers one size smaller, and then casually tied my hair in a bun in a self-defeating manner.

After entering the palace, Zi Liuhui, who had a mature face, was excitedly waiting for us early in the morning, as if I was a panda... You Shun, who was standing aside with his cane, smiled at me.I smiled back, and Huang Yi beside me bowed his hands in salute, while I bowed my head to the king who made Yousun surrender.

For a while, the positions of Huang Yi and I became clear again.

"Chairman Zhang," Zi Liuhui, who was sitting at the top, paused for a moment, then calmed down, with a sad expression on his face, "I'm sorry."

I smiled at him, then stood up slowly while supporting the hand that Huang Yi offered.Huang Yi retreated first, and went back to the Yushi Terrace to deal with some urgent matters, but I stayed behind at You Shun's signal, and sat on the side of the Imperial Study Room.

"Lord Lan," Li Jiangyou bowed to me, "I wish you a happy wedding."

Lan Qiuying also said some words of congratulations to me.

After I thanked you one by one, I turned to You Shun, "You should sit down first?" There was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.

You Shun sat down obediently, "Ze Lan still rejected Master Huiqi."

"I heard." I smiled and took the tea from Zi Liuhui with both hands—it was not supposed to be brewed by him according to the etiquette, but Zi Liuhui seemed inexplicably eager to make tea... I lowered my head and sipped it He took a sip, paused, and then tried his best to drink the tea down.

"Of course, Master Huijia drank too much yesterday, crawled on Chief Aoi's body, swayed around, and yelled at him for robbing him. It's a pity that Zelan didn't see it."

"..." No, it would be better if I didn't know these things.

"We are planning to transfer official Li to Lanzhou, and General Lan to the local military camp in the north. I don't know what Zelan thinks."

"Master Youshun." Ci Jinglan frowned and called out.

You Shun raised his hand to stop the three young men who were hesitant to speak, and looked at me with a smile.

Because of the marriage they gave, I am not trusted anymore.I chuckled and didn't answer.

"President Zhang." Zi Liuhui called out.

I smiled again and asked, "Lord Wen Zhong?"

"Transfer to Zhongshu Ministry." You Shun replied without hesitation.

"Officials of the king," I tilted my head, "are they still officials of the country, is there any difference? There are people who take the imperial examinations to show their ambitions, and there are also those who want to make a fortune. Is this also included in the exam questions?" I turned to You Shun, "What did You Shun fill in the question about being an official?"

You Shun said without batting an eye, "I want to destroy that scumbag's country one day, but if I don't have a chance or I'm lazy, then forget it."

I smiled, stood up and said goodbye.

"Zelan." You Shun called me to stop.

I folded my sleeves and said with a smile, "It doesn't matter who I am. Those who work hard to live will naturally be able to live." I looked sideways at the cloudless blue sky outside the temple, "Isn't it that we give everything we have? The country I want? When I no longer trust His Majesty, I will revolt and kick His Majesty off the throne." Looking at the serious expressions of the young people, I laughed, "I'm just kidding, I'm really joking .If there is a day, it will not be my turn to be this hero, and I don't have such ability. However, this is the position where His Majesty is sitting. Please work hard." Kowtow to the throne for the last time.

A little bit angry.

Go to the harem and meet Lan Shisanji who is still the chief female officer, and after a few words, she raises her eyebrows, crosses her hips and closes the palace door, shutting the young man who chased after him belatedly. outside the door.

I was angry for a while, and I was not angry anymore. I smiled and covered my forehead, and turned to comfort Thirteen Ji, "It's normal not to be trusted, but they don't have Youshun's skills, so they can't hide it." They haven't learned to laugh yet. It should be gratifying and congratulatory to use chess pieces with ulterior motives. It is an important quality of young people.

"These idiots," Thirteenth Ji, who was dressed in silk and satin, sat on the window frame, took out a bow and arrow that came from nowhere, and shot a few arrows outside the palace gate, "Sanniang is also something that they can be contemptuous of." of?"

"Actually, they are right. My attitude is always too ambiguous." At least they have learned not to trust blindly, even those who they trusted before.I tilted my head and made tea casually, "It can be said that it is absolutely impossible for me to be the same as before. After all, I need to take care of my husband's feelings more. You Shun is also very clear that he did not expect me to be the same again. Do that step." I don't need to walk in that position anymore.I smiled and said: "I don't want to be the same anymore. It's so boring to always live the same life." Then, change the way.

Thirteenth Ji rested her chin and thought for a while, took a sip of the tea I handed her, and then asked, "Sanniang, happy wedding?"

"Yes, happy wedding." I put my index finger on my lips and said with a smile, "It's a secret I only tell you."
