I write novels in the East Palace
Chapter 90 Good News
It was already dark, and the banquet hall was brightly lit. There were four people standing below. They were Fu Qian, Luo Yi, Yu Ying, and Princess Huimin. All eyes were on Zhou Chengyi holding the room. Yan's hands.
Zhou Chengyi's hand being stared at couldn't help shaking slightly, Fang Guanyan moved his head on Zhou Chengyi's neck, frowned and made a "huh" sound, raised his sleepy face, and kissed Zhou Chengyi's mouth up-down.
"I'm sleepy." He said something vaguely, then leaned his head back obediently, his hands around Zhou Chengyi's neck tightened, his warm breath fell on his neck, and he calmed down soon after.
At the moment when Fang Guanyan kissed him, Zhou Chengyi felt the gaze on him become even hotter, which made his scalp tingle.
He kept this posture silently and reached out to pick up the cloak that he had taken off before, and covered Fang Guanyan completely, including that hand that was in a delicate position.
No one knew what was going on in Zhou Chengyi's mind, and his face was calm as if nothing had happened, "Why are you back?"
"I didn't go at all." Fu Qian's eyes were empty, he could barely hold his fan, and he answered the question instinctively, "It's snowing outside—all day, the snow is so thick that the carriage can't move, I asked someone to call I got into the sedan chair and had to wait for a while, but the three drunks insisted on shoveling snow, but they couldn't stop them, so they let them go."
Those three were naturally Pei Yan, Du Bingruo, and Jiang Yusheng. They didn't drink to the point of unconsciousness, but they were close to that state.
"So, then let's go first." Zhou Chengyi nodded, walked down very steadily, paused when he came to the door, turned his head and said to the few people who looked hesitant to speak, "We are the ones you saw like this."
"Goodbye." He nodded again, and left with a relaxed hug. Seeing that the snow was still floating in the sky, he did not forget to pull up his cloak a bit. Outside, he met a three-person group of snow shovelers. Dozed off, Jiang Yusheng was almost crushed by Du Bingruo and worked hard, and he really found out a long way.
"Your Highness, let's go?" Du Bingruo saw them from a distance, greeted them with a hearty smile, and even shook Pei Jin awake, "Let's drink together next time!"
"—definitely." Zhou Chengyi smiled, got into the carriage, and wanted to put Fang Guanyan down, but the man muttered "cold" but didn't even want a cloak, so he insisted on shrinking into Zhou Chengyi's arms and found a comfortable one Then he fell into a deep sleep again, without opening his eyes from the beginning to the end.
Zhou Chengyi hugged and pinched his face helplessly, looking at his impeccable sleeping face, it was a pity that there was no equipment to record this scene, and the corners of his lips could not help but curl up, "I'm afraid I'll wake up tomorrow and want to pretend I no longer know."
"Go back to the palace, walk slowly on the way." Zhou Chengyi ordered.
"Yes." Lin Dong nodded, and the carriage left slowly.
Pei Jin waved his hand after Du Bingruo in a daze, rubbed his eyes, and took a while to react, then turned his head and asked, "It seems that His Royal Highness is holding Zigu?"
"It seems to be." Du Bingruo answered casually, then patted Pei Yi on the shoulder, and said meaningfully, "Second Master Pei, you finally woke up? If you don't work, you won't get paid, no You can’t drink and eat meat to live a good life with your wages.”
Pei Ju was already drunk and stupefied, and immediately buried himself in his work in a panic.
In the end, I forgot my original intention and started a snowball fight. Snowballs flew in the sky and almost hit the bearer who carried the sedan chair.
The three drunks outside were playing with the snow madly, while the four people in the mansion recovered from the shock just now, gasped after realizing it, and looked at each other without saying a word for a long time.
Luo Yi's brain, which was a little stunned by the smell of alcohol, woke up completely. He endured it, and subconsciously lowered his voice and asked, "Isn't it rumored that His Royal Highness is going to marry a concubine? Why... "
"Is there such a thing?" Princess Huimin hasn't returned to the palace for a long time, and all her mind is on the drama, and she really doesn't know the rumors that are raging in the palace.
Luo Yi nodded affirmatively, "His Royal Highness even took someone to the Imperial Hospital to see a doctor. It seems that he is a sick Xi Shi."
Diseased Xishi—the word describes this woman's beautiful face and beautiful appearance. She can stand shoulder to shoulder with Xishi in the same name, and it also shows that she is weak and sickly.
It can only be said that the power of the rumors is unimaginable, from the beginning of His Highness the Crown Prince’s murder to the evil woman’s disaster to the country, and now it’s rumored that there are noses and eyes. Quite a lot.
Luo Yi is one of them.
Fu Qian had heard the rumors before, and he didn't take it seriously at first, but now he was really worried, "You've seen it before in the palace? What kind of person is that? Is it easy to get along with? If she knew that His Highness and Zigu had been together before How could it be - alas! Why is it His Highness!"
Fu Qian didn't care if Zi Gu had a habit of cutting off his sleeves. To be honest, he even doubted Fang Guanyan. A good young man of his age has a limit even if he is not close to women.
It's better to have the habit of breaking sleeves than not to come.
Luo Yi shook his head, "I have been in the South Study Room and the Hanlin Academy all year round, how dare I run around in the palace because I think I have a long life? But I heard rumors that she is a witch, she is so capable, even the Crown Prince, who is still in her arms, bows down and waits for her." ... just doesn't sound good."
Luo Yi said it very euphemistically, but everyone could hear that it was a sign of disaster for the country.
—Yu Ying, who had been silent for a long time, said at this moment, "These should be just rumors."
"I think so too." Princess Huimin agreed and echoed, "Your Highness is not that kind of a character who hides and hides. If you are really happy, you must have already announced it to the world. Besides, someone who can write "The Kingdom of Ladies" , People who preach loyalty and mutual respect in the book, how can they be such half-hearted people."
"It's true, with Zigu's pride, he definitely can't accept such feelings." Fu Qian finally heaved a sigh of relief, and none of them expected that the rumored "witch girl" made His Royal Highness bewildered. It is Fang Guanyan who is so beautiful.
There is only one question in their minds now, especially Fu Qian, who has been in contact with both of them recently, and the whole person is confused and suspicious, "When did these two people have such thoughts? When did they express their hearts?" Have this kind of relationship?"
"Anyway, it doesn't take long." Luo Yi said.
Yu Ying asked them in a daze, not knowing how to tell the length of time.
There was some commotion outside, three drunks ran in happily, Fu Qian guessed, "It should be the sedan chair has arrived."
Sure enough, the three of them rushed in and said that there were many sedan chairs outside, and it was already getting late. Princess Huimin and Yu Ying took the lead to leave. He called his attendants to follow them back to the mansion, and the two also accepted the favor, thanked them for getting on the sedan chair and left.
Jiang Yusheng got into the sedan chair very consciously, and fell asleep with his eyes closed after sitting in. Although Du Bingruo was a little noisy, he was not Fu Qian's opponent, so he coaxed him into the sedan chair.
After seeing off the two guests, there were only two overnight stays left. Fu Qian had asked someone to clean up the room early on, and the kitchen had prepared hot water. Turning around, he found Luo Yi and Pei Yi leaning on each other, sleeping Take a nap.
Fu Qian hesitated, his eyes were very delicate, hesitating whether to go forward to disturb, but at this moment Luo Yi woke up with a sudden nod, at first he was at a loss for a moment, he only felt why his shoulders were so heavy, and when he turned his head, he found that Pei Yi was lying on the pillow. His shoulders fell asleep, and the halazi dripped on his clothes.
Luo Yi's pupils constricted for a while, and he stood up with a "whoosh", holding the wet part of his clothes in disgust, and looked at the culprit who fell unconscious and fell asleep next to him, gnashing his teeth, the anger and disgust in his eyes almost to become real.
Fu Qian understood what he meant without him saying anything, and pointed in a direction, "Hot water is ready."
Luo Yi suddenly seemed to be blown away by a gust of wind.
Fu Qian was quietly relieved - it's okay, it's okay, after all, the foursome didn't get together two pairs of Qi brothers, so don't make him redundant, and after sighing that there is still a brotherhood, he asked someone to send Pei Yi to the guest room.
Zhou Chengyi had just taken a shower and planned to go to bed, but he heard that Wang He had come to invite him in person. Guessing that this must be a big event, he simply wrapped up his cloak and followed him to Qianyuan Palace. The first thing he noticed when he entered the study was not the emperor. It was the Luwu who was kneeling behind the newly added small table.
The little girl saw that he had finished writing the words he had started in a calm manner, and then got up to salute, "Chengyu has met the fourth brother."
"Chengyu?" Zhou Chengyi was stunned for a while - he didn't react immediately.
He remembered that Lu Wu was given a title right from birth, and there are quite a few princesses in the kingdom of Xiao who can be called princesses, but they still have the title of imperial bestowed upon them—from birth, except for the eldest daughter of the empress during Gaozu's time. Besides, nothing else.
Therefore, it is probably regarded as an honor, and Concubine Chen never gave Lu Wu another name, and other people also called Lu Wu or Her Royal Highness.
Now it is named after Cheng... Zhou Chengyi's eyes brightened.
Sure enough, the emperor said, "A gentleman is better than Yuyu, what do you think of this name?"
"Father's name is naturally good." Zhou Chengyi patted the emperor's flattery, and then asked wittyly, "Father finally recognizes my sister now? Where is this minister?" Can the prince's hat be taken off?"
The emperor—seeing his impatient appearance, felt ashamed, covered his lips with a handkerchief and coughed twice, and looked at him with difficulty in distinguishing his anger—"What are you in such a hurry for? The fifth son wants to beg for the position of prince." It's too late, why are you sitting on pins and needles?"
Zhou Chengyi also felt that his emotions were too obvious, so he quickly restrained himself a bit, bowed and saluted, and said calmly, "It's not that I don't like to cover up by nature, I'm afraid that I will expose something to A Yan every day, and it will cause unreasonable disasters for you, Father. .”
Emperor Longmu-squint, he sensed something from his subtle tone, "What do you mean, someone knows about your relationship?"
Zhou Chengyi cupped his hands, "Father is wise."
"You!" the emperor pointed to his son who was standing with an innocent face underneath, and said angrily, "I told you to restrain yourself a long time ago, do you think those censors' mouths are just for show? They can say that black is white! No matter how talented Fang Guanyan is, if they attack you for this matter, at such an opportunity, do you think I can protect you both regardless of what the officials think?"
He took a deep breath, coughed twice, and said earnestly, "Why don't you know what's good? I just told you to bear it. Did it still hurt you?"
Zhou Chengyi waited for him to finish speaking, and vaguely understood something, "The rumors in the palace about the witches of the Hongmeng Sect, could it be that the father is behind the scenes?"
"Don't you think so?" The emperor said angrily, "With your unrestrained temperament, my good prince and my ministers have become brothers, and the whole palace has known about it! The hand stretched out to the harem How many of them do you not know? Do you think that the palace is full of news and the court doesn’t know about it?”
"When the time comes, what will be handed over to my desk will not be to invite you to set up a memorial to the crown prince, but to execute the remnants of the previous dynasty who have troubled the court and bewitched the crown prince!"
The emperor purposely said it a little more seriously, although there are such extreme people in the court, but there are other courtiers to restrain him, Yu Zhongling can scold the person who made this proposal without even daring to lift his head, and the emperor is also impossible Because of personal matters, he will be executed - a capable minister who is lacking in the court.
But he hoped that by saying this, Zhou Chengyi could take it seriously and not cause any trouble at this juncture. The emperor could find a reason to abolish the crown prince, but he didn't want him to be tainted with stigma when he finally stepped down.
Zhou Chengyi listened patiently before saying, "Father, don't worry, Fu Qian and the others are not people who talk nonsense, don't worry so much."
"Besides, I don't think it's a stigma to like men." He smiled, but the arrogance between his brows and eyes was revealed in his calm words, "If it is really because of such absurd reasons, I want to ask Ayan to ruin his future, that can only be done." It means that this court is not good."
The emperor laughed angrily, nodded his fingers in the air, and said moodily, "Are you accusing me of being incompetent? You really dare to say it."
Even so, when he looked at the person with that sharp and proud aura underneath, he felt inexplicably gratified and proud.
Zhou Chengyi shrugged his shoulders obediently after taking advantage of it, "Father, you said this yourself."
"But your uncle has such a temperament, he owes a lesson." The emperor smiled and cursed, but he was not angry.
After laughing, the emperor didn't know what he thought of, his brows and eyes sank, he quietly observed the change in Zhou Chengyi's expression, and started to talk about business, "I called you here at this time, because I have something to tell you, I plan to establish Concubine Min For the future."
Concubine Min is the one recuperating in Zhangtai, currently the concubine with the highest status and seniority in the palace, and the concubine of Prince Zhou Chengyao.
The emperor said, "The snowstorm in the north, I will seal the empress on the grounds of destiny, and then release the news that the suppressed army has conquered ten cities—"
Zhou Chengyi's focus immediately turned away, and he said in surprise, "Uncle captured the ten cities of Beihu? Which ten cities? How about the casualties?"
The emperor choked for a moment, and threw the memorial of the victory directly into his arms, wanting to be angry or not, and said, "The point I'm talking about is to establish a queen! I plan to adopt Yu'er under the name of Concubine Min, and then I want to establish a queen dowager I still have to plan slowly, but I have already occupied the throne, and I will always block them - open their mouths."
"Yeah, my son thinks it's okay." Zhou Chengyi nodded perfunctorily, and his mind was completely on the victory report.
Zhongli Yueyi was a bold man, marched halfway, led two thousand light cavalry directly through the Western Regions, surrounded a small border town bordering the Western Regions in Beihu, captured it effortlessly, and then surrounded it on both sides The trend of the Western Regions is caught in the middle.
Originally swaying in the Western Regions, he didn't expect that Beihu, who was involved in troubles, would not be cut off first, but himself, a [-]-year-old boy, would suffer first. Immediately, he could only express his position, either completely defected to Beihu, or had to open the door to welcome Xiao Guo's army into the country.
The monarch of the Western Regions didn't dare to confront Zhong Liyue head-on, and opened the door openly. At the same time, he didn't want to give up Beihu as an ally, and even sent letters to Beihu, but Zhong Liyue naturally blocked them.
Taking advantage of Beihu's lack of time to react and his focus on Cangzhou, Zhong Liyue fought directly from the west, and defeated ten cities in just a few months.
Zhou Chengyi—seeing that something is wrong with the Western Regions, "This country has to defend itself, and can't hand over the rear to such a wall, otherwise it will be stabbed in the back."
The emperor pressed his eyebrows, resigned to his fate and continued to talk about the establishment of the empress, and talked about it obediently, "Zhen and Zhongli also think the same way. I will shrink the border trade. It is winter now, and the grassland is poor. Merchants from the Western Regions are going south to spend the winter, and it is really time for the monarch of the Western Regions to beg me to send supplies."
The emperor sneered as he spoke. He didn't know how the small country in the Western Regions, which was backed by foreign barbarians and had to depend on him for survival every year, dared to do such things.
Zhou Chengyi said with a deep understanding of this, "Perhaps Beihu is its real father."
The emperor laughed when he heard this, "The nomadic branch of the former great northern country originally originated from the Western Regions. After it was dispersed, it was divided into Outer Barbarians, Northern Turks, Northern Hu, Western Regions, and other small countries that did not have a climate. Into the Shaman."
In other words, in truth, the Western Regions are the father.
Zhou Chengyi smiled meaningfully and spread his hands, "Isn't the Western Regions always going around to recognize father, who in the foreign barbarian Xiao Kingdom doesn't call--father? It can be seen that it has hesitated? I'm afraid a son is better for it, at least it is still close relatives." For this reason, if you count two generations up carefully, you can still climb up."
"Even if he climbed up a jackal, tiger and leopard?" Luwu——should be called Zhou Chengyu now——Zhou Chengyu stood by—listening carefully, and only then interjected to ask—with a child's milky voice Milky.
Zhou Chengyi didn't underestimate her because of her young age, nodded and said, "Even if he climbed up to a jackal, even if he knew that the person who offered his help was not malicious."
"Why is that?" Zhou Chengyu didn't understand.
Zhou Chengyi thought for a while, and gave a straightforward explanation, "This is like the concept of kinship, that is, there are some people who are ungrateful for what their adoptive parents provide, and their hearts are attached to their biological parents who never gave birth to them and raised them." .”
The emperor twitched the corner of his mouth and reprimanded, "What a messy metaphor, don't spoil your sister."
"Could it be that my metaphor is not vivid?" Zhou Chengyi curled his lips.
Zhou Chengyu nodded in agreement, "It's very vivid, and I understood it immediately. Father, can I ask fourth brother some questions?"
"You ask, I want to see what else the prince can say." The emperor coughed twice, his words sounded disdainful-Gu, but he was actually very pleased, and wished that Zhou Chengyi could put his knowledge to the test. Teach it to Zhou Chengyu.
From the emperor's point of view, Zhou Chengyi's ability to be an emperor is not only excellent, but also very outstanding, even if his political views are too radical.
But this son published popular novels one after another, and he didn't even have the slightest greed for the throne. The position of the crown prince became a bondage to him. - A chicken and a dog jump.
The emperor sighed slightly when he thought of these things, and leaned back on his chair.
"That must not disappoint the emperor." After Zhou Chengyi answered this sentence, he began to teach Zhou Chengyu.
His sister's question seemed a bit unclear at first, so Zhou Chengyi found out in the answer that what Zhou Chengyu lacked was only experience, and the age limit made her half-understand some things, but once she understood, it was very difficult. It's quick to be able to make a three-pointer.
She can often say some political opinions that surprised Zhou Chengyi.
For example, Zhou Chengyu and the emperor maintained a high degree of agreement on the disposal of Lu Shangshu, and they both believed that they should be used first before the general ledger was settled.
She tried her best to suppress her tone of voice, but when she woke up, she still smelled of milk, "Of course I will reward you without hesitation for the good deeds you have done, but the evil deeds he did should not just be written off, he can be punished as he pleases." .”
Zhou Chengyi rubbed his chin—for a moment he didn't know how to evaluate her, Zhou Chengyu couldn't help feeling a little uneasy seeing him in silence for so long, he carefully recalled what he had said in his heart, and found nothing out of line.
She asked nervously, "Did I say something wrong?"
Zhou Chengyi quickly shook his head, "You're very good, I just think it would be nice if you could be a little older." You don't need to be much older, just at least ten years old.
Precocious puberty was common in ancient times. It is not uncommon for people to marry and become parents at the age of fourteen or fifteen, and it is not uncommon for a woman to be considered an adult at the age of fifteen. After ten years of age, she can already be called a teenager.
In history, there are not many and not many teenagers who are in power. Although the young master's ascension to the throne has the appearance of subjugation, his cheap father has already broken it once. The example of two successive young masters ascending the throne and finally ruling the prosperous world will be more than two hundred years earlier. It may appear in the year.
Zhou Chengyi is very optimistic about Zhou Chengyu, and has already seen some shadows of an emperor in her. As long as she is given enough time to grow, she will definitely grow into a king.
He thought about getting up and turning his head to bid farewell to the emperor, but found that the emperor, who wanted to hear what he could say, was leaning on the chair and fell asleep at this moment, with his brows furrowed, and his sleep was still restless.
It was also at this time that Zhou Chengyi realized that the emperor's complexion was not good, and the under eye circles were black and blue. He told Zhou Chengyu, who was already sleepy and struggling, to go to bed, and even threatened her to sleep late. The serious words about lack of vitamins are dubious.
In the end, he couldn't hold back the sleepiness and nodded resignedly to his fate, and went to sleep.
Zhou Chengyi called Wang He to the side, and asked in a low voice about the emperor's situation. Wang He was silent for a while, gritted his teeth and said the matter.
"Nightmare? Have you been doing it for so long?" Zhou Chengyi frowned and said speechlessly, "No wonder it doesn't seem to be improving after recuperating for so long. If you don't sleep well every day, you won't die suddenly."
"Look for some medicine to help sleep at the Imperial Hospital," Zhou Chengyi said.
Wang He replied, "It was opened, and it was useful at first, but now..."
"With drug resistance, ask the imperial doctor to change the medicine, come to the follow-up visit every day, and get some medicine if necessary, if this continues, the body will collapse first." Zhou Chengyi ordered straightforwardly, and whispered, "Father, if you To trouble you, just confess me."
"For what?" The emperor's weary voice cut in, "What are you plotting loudly in my Qianyuan Palace?"
"There's no conspiracy, it's naturally about your sleeping problem." Under Wang He's trembling gaze, Zhou Chengyi repeated what he had just ordered.
The emperor wasn't angry, but his heart felt a little warm. He pressed the center of his brows, "It's kind of conscientious, better than your uncle who can only get angry with me."
Every time the bad description is either compared with Zhong Liyue, or pushed against Zhong Liyue, one can imagine the Emperor's resentment towards him.
"Just do as you said, daydreaming is very disturbing, I'm tired." The emperor closed his eyes and leaned back on the chair, waving his hand.
I don't know if it's Zhou Chengyi's delusion, but I always feel that the emperor's expression has such a moment of patience.
He resigned and left without thinking much, and almost the moment he stepped out of Qianyuan Palace, the emperor opened his eyes and vomited blood.
"Your Majesty!" Wang He was so startled that he fell limp and knelt on the ground on the spot, crawling over with panicked and anxious hands and feet.
The emperor, the client, remained calm, wiped the blood from his lips with a handkerchief and said lightly, "What are you afraid of, I'm fine, I won't die for a while."
"Your Majesty!" Wang He's cloudy eyes were moistened, and he almost burst into tears.
The emperor just waved his hand, "Call the imperial doctor."
"Yes, yes!" Wang He crawled out in embarrassment, stood up after a while, and ran out staggeringly, but Buddha Chen didn't take it, and the hem of his clothes was still stained with blood.
But the emperor didn't have the energy to take care of it anymore. He covered his lips with a veil with an ugly face, and his violent coughing made him heart-rending, and his fingers clasped on the table were so hard that they turned white.
"Father!" Zhou Chengyu, who was sleeping in the side hall, appeared at some unknown time, and she ran over with bare feet.
The emperor coughed and couldn't speak, he just patted his head soothingly.
Zhou Chengyi walked to the gate of the East Palace, and turned back in a strange way—his heart constricted for some reason, and even the ordinary night seemed to become ominous.
"Father..." Zhou Chengyi originally wanted to tell someone to take medicine when he was sick, but he only opened his mouth and stopped. The news of the emperor's illness obviously didn't want to be revealed, so he guarded so strictly. If it wasn't for the emperor He took a nap, maybe he didn't even know it.
And what the emperor said earlier, Zhou Chengyi also listened to it, walls have ears, things can only be said to those who are close to him.
In the end Zhou Chengyi just asked the little eunuch to give Wang He a sentence of good service, presumably Wang He should be able to understand the meaning.
He went back to the East Palace, and when he entered, he found Fang Guanyan sitting in the yard waiting for him.
"Why did you wake up?" Zhou Chengyi stepped forward and grabbed his hand, it was very cold, he frowned, and immediately untied his cloak to wrap him up completely, "It's winter outside, you plan to call me Be a widow?"
Fang Guanyan stood there obediently and did not speak, only staring at him without blinking.
"What's the matter? The wine is still awake?" Zhou Chengyi looked at him as if he was not sober.
"I'm cold." After a while, Fang Guanyan spit out two words, before Zhou Chengyi could say "Is it stupid to stay outside cold?" Fang Guanyan's next sentence threw it all back, "So let's have sex."
The author has something to say: the test is coming.
small theater
Fang Guanyan: Let's have sex.
Zhou Chengyi: ...are you awake?
Fang Guanyan: Are you okay?
Zhou Chengyi: ...you are gone.
感谢在2021-06-2423:29:54~2021-06-2522:18:13期间为我投出霸王票或灌溉营养液的小天使哦~
Thanks to the little angel who threw the mine: 1 rain, [-] half-colored peach;
感谢灌溉营养液的小天使:kw&30瓶;喵~19瓶;枉汤10瓶;季危、铭子、may5瓶;迷踪花冠1瓶;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
Zhou Chengyi's hand being stared at couldn't help shaking slightly, Fang Guanyan moved his head on Zhou Chengyi's neck, frowned and made a "huh" sound, raised his sleepy face, and kissed Zhou Chengyi's mouth up-down.
"I'm sleepy." He said something vaguely, then leaned his head back obediently, his hands around Zhou Chengyi's neck tightened, his warm breath fell on his neck, and he calmed down soon after.
At the moment when Fang Guanyan kissed him, Zhou Chengyi felt the gaze on him become even hotter, which made his scalp tingle.
He kept this posture silently and reached out to pick up the cloak that he had taken off before, and covered Fang Guanyan completely, including that hand that was in a delicate position.
No one knew what was going on in Zhou Chengyi's mind, and his face was calm as if nothing had happened, "Why are you back?"
"I didn't go at all." Fu Qian's eyes were empty, he could barely hold his fan, and he answered the question instinctively, "It's snowing outside—all day, the snow is so thick that the carriage can't move, I asked someone to call I got into the sedan chair and had to wait for a while, but the three drunks insisted on shoveling snow, but they couldn't stop them, so they let them go."
Those three were naturally Pei Yan, Du Bingruo, and Jiang Yusheng. They didn't drink to the point of unconsciousness, but they were close to that state.
"So, then let's go first." Zhou Chengyi nodded, walked down very steadily, paused when he came to the door, turned his head and said to the few people who looked hesitant to speak, "We are the ones you saw like this."
"Goodbye." He nodded again, and left with a relaxed hug. Seeing that the snow was still floating in the sky, he did not forget to pull up his cloak a bit. Outside, he met a three-person group of snow shovelers. Dozed off, Jiang Yusheng was almost crushed by Du Bingruo and worked hard, and he really found out a long way.
"Your Highness, let's go?" Du Bingruo saw them from a distance, greeted them with a hearty smile, and even shook Pei Jin awake, "Let's drink together next time!"
"—definitely." Zhou Chengyi smiled, got into the carriage, and wanted to put Fang Guanyan down, but the man muttered "cold" but didn't even want a cloak, so he insisted on shrinking into Zhou Chengyi's arms and found a comfortable one Then he fell into a deep sleep again, without opening his eyes from the beginning to the end.
Zhou Chengyi hugged and pinched his face helplessly, looking at his impeccable sleeping face, it was a pity that there was no equipment to record this scene, and the corners of his lips could not help but curl up, "I'm afraid I'll wake up tomorrow and want to pretend I no longer know."
"Go back to the palace, walk slowly on the way." Zhou Chengyi ordered.
"Yes." Lin Dong nodded, and the carriage left slowly.
Pei Jin waved his hand after Du Bingruo in a daze, rubbed his eyes, and took a while to react, then turned his head and asked, "It seems that His Royal Highness is holding Zigu?"
"It seems to be." Du Bingruo answered casually, then patted Pei Yi on the shoulder, and said meaningfully, "Second Master Pei, you finally woke up? If you don't work, you won't get paid, no You can’t drink and eat meat to live a good life with your wages.”
Pei Ju was already drunk and stupefied, and immediately buried himself in his work in a panic.
In the end, I forgot my original intention and started a snowball fight. Snowballs flew in the sky and almost hit the bearer who carried the sedan chair.
The three drunks outside were playing with the snow madly, while the four people in the mansion recovered from the shock just now, gasped after realizing it, and looked at each other without saying a word for a long time.
Luo Yi's brain, which was a little stunned by the smell of alcohol, woke up completely. He endured it, and subconsciously lowered his voice and asked, "Isn't it rumored that His Royal Highness is going to marry a concubine? Why... "
"Is there such a thing?" Princess Huimin hasn't returned to the palace for a long time, and all her mind is on the drama, and she really doesn't know the rumors that are raging in the palace.
Luo Yi nodded affirmatively, "His Royal Highness even took someone to the Imperial Hospital to see a doctor. It seems that he is a sick Xi Shi."
Diseased Xishi—the word describes this woman's beautiful face and beautiful appearance. She can stand shoulder to shoulder with Xishi in the same name, and it also shows that she is weak and sickly.
It can only be said that the power of the rumors is unimaginable, from the beginning of His Highness the Crown Prince’s murder to the evil woman’s disaster to the country, and now it’s rumored that there are noses and eyes. Quite a lot.
Luo Yi is one of them.
Fu Qian had heard the rumors before, and he didn't take it seriously at first, but now he was really worried, "You've seen it before in the palace? What kind of person is that? Is it easy to get along with? If she knew that His Highness and Zigu had been together before How could it be - alas! Why is it His Highness!"
Fu Qian didn't care if Zi Gu had a habit of cutting off his sleeves. To be honest, he even doubted Fang Guanyan. A good young man of his age has a limit even if he is not close to women.
It's better to have the habit of breaking sleeves than not to come.
Luo Yi shook his head, "I have been in the South Study Room and the Hanlin Academy all year round, how dare I run around in the palace because I think I have a long life? But I heard rumors that she is a witch, she is so capable, even the Crown Prince, who is still in her arms, bows down and waits for her." ... just doesn't sound good."
Luo Yi said it very euphemistically, but everyone could hear that it was a sign of disaster for the country.
—Yu Ying, who had been silent for a long time, said at this moment, "These should be just rumors."
"I think so too." Princess Huimin agreed and echoed, "Your Highness is not that kind of a character who hides and hides. If you are really happy, you must have already announced it to the world. Besides, someone who can write "The Kingdom of Ladies" , People who preach loyalty and mutual respect in the book, how can they be such half-hearted people."
"It's true, with Zigu's pride, he definitely can't accept such feelings." Fu Qian finally heaved a sigh of relief, and none of them expected that the rumored "witch girl" made His Royal Highness bewildered. It is Fang Guanyan who is so beautiful.
There is only one question in their minds now, especially Fu Qian, who has been in contact with both of them recently, and the whole person is confused and suspicious, "When did these two people have such thoughts? When did they express their hearts?" Have this kind of relationship?"
"Anyway, it doesn't take long." Luo Yi said.
Yu Ying asked them in a daze, not knowing how to tell the length of time.
There was some commotion outside, three drunks ran in happily, Fu Qian guessed, "It should be the sedan chair has arrived."
Sure enough, the three of them rushed in and said that there were many sedan chairs outside, and it was already getting late. Princess Huimin and Yu Ying took the lead to leave. He called his attendants to follow them back to the mansion, and the two also accepted the favor, thanked them for getting on the sedan chair and left.
Jiang Yusheng got into the sedan chair very consciously, and fell asleep with his eyes closed after sitting in. Although Du Bingruo was a little noisy, he was not Fu Qian's opponent, so he coaxed him into the sedan chair.
After seeing off the two guests, there were only two overnight stays left. Fu Qian had asked someone to clean up the room early on, and the kitchen had prepared hot water. Turning around, he found Luo Yi and Pei Yi leaning on each other, sleeping Take a nap.
Fu Qian hesitated, his eyes were very delicate, hesitating whether to go forward to disturb, but at this moment Luo Yi woke up with a sudden nod, at first he was at a loss for a moment, he only felt why his shoulders were so heavy, and when he turned his head, he found that Pei Yi was lying on the pillow. His shoulders fell asleep, and the halazi dripped on his clothes.
Luo Yi's pupils constricted for a while, and he stood up with a "whoosh", holding the wet part of his clothes in disgust, and looked at the culprit who fell unconscious and fell asleep next to him, gnashing his teeth, the anger and disgust in his eyes almost to become real.
Fu Qian understood what he meant without him saying anything, and pointed in a direction, "Hot water is ready."
Luo Yi suddenly seemed to be blown away by a gust of wind.
Fu Qian was quietly relieved - it's okay, it's okay, after all, the foursome didn't get together two pairs of Qi brothers, so don't make him redundant, and after sighing that there is still a brotherhood, he asked someone to send Pei Yi to the guest room.
Zhou Chengyi had just taken a shower and planned to go to bed, but he heard that Wang He had come to invite him in person. Guessing that this must be a big event, he simply wrapped up his cloak and followed him to Qianyuan Palace. The first thing he noticed when he entered the study was not the emperor. It was the Luwu who was kneeling behind the newly added small table.
The little girl saw that he had finished writing the words he had started in a calm manner, and then got up to salute, "Chengyu has met the fourth brother."
"Chengyu?" Zhou Chengyi was stunned for a while - he didn't react immediately.
He remembered that Lu Wu was given a title right from birth, and there are quite a few princesses in the kingdom of Xiao who can be called princesses, but they still have the title of imperial bestowed upon them—from birth, except for the eldest daughter of the empress during Gaozu's time. Besides, nothing else.
Therefore, it is probably regarded as an honor, and Concubine Chen never gave Lu Wu another name, and other people also called Lu Wu or Her Royal Highness.
Now it is named after Cheng... Zhou Chengyi's eyes brightened.
Sure enough, the emperor said, "A gentleman is better than Yuyu, what do you think of this name?"
"Father's name is naturally good." Zhou Chengyi patted the emperor's flattery, and then asked wittyly, "Father finally recognizes my sister now? Where is this minister?" Can the prince's hat be taken off?"
The emperor—seeing his impatient appearance, felt ashamed, covered his lips with a handkerchief and coughed twice, and looked at him with difficulty in distinguishing his anger—"What are you in such a hurry for? The fifth son wants to beg for the position of prince." It's too late, why are you sitting on pins and needles?"
Zhou Chengyi also felt that his emotions were too obvious, so he quickly restrained himself a bit, bowed and saluted, and said calmly, "It's not that I don't like to cover up by nature, I'm afraid that I will expose something to A Yan every day, and it will cause unreasonable disasters for you, Father. .”
Emperor Longmu-squint, he sensed something from his subtle tone, "What do you mean, someone knows about your relationship?"
Zhou Chengyi cupped his hands, "Father is wise."
"You!" the emperor pointed to his son who was standing with an innocent face underneath, and said angrily, "I told you to restrain yourself a long time ago, do you think those censors' mouths are just for show? They can say that black is white! No matter how talented Fang Guanyan is, if they attack you for this matter, at such an opportunity, do you think I can protect you both regardless of what the officials think?"
He took a deep breath, coughed twice, and said earnestly, "Why don't you know what's good? I just told you to bear it. Did it still hurt you?"
Zhou Chengyi waited for him to finish speaking, and vaguely understood something, "The rumors in the palace about the witches of the Hongmeng Sect, could it be that the father is behind the scenes?"
"Don't you think so?" The emperor said angrily, "With your unrestrained temperament, my good prince and my ministers have become brothers, and the whole palace has known about it! The hand stretched out to the harem How many of them do you not know? Do you think that the palace is full of news and the court doesn’t know about it?”
"When the time comes, what will be handed over to my desk will not be to invite you to set up a memorial to the crown prince, but to execute the remnants of the previous dynasty who have troubled the court and bewitched the crown prince!"
The emperor purposely said it a little more seriously, although there are such extreme people in the court, but there are other courtiers to restrain him, Yu Zhongling can scold the person who made this proposal without even daring to lift his head, and the emperor is also impossible Because of personal matters, he will be executed - a capable minister who is lacking in the court.
But he hoped that by saying this, Zhou Chengyi could take it seriously and not cause any trouble at this juncture. The emperor could find a reason to abolish the crown prince, but he didn't want him to be tainted with stigma when he finally stepped down.
Zhou Chengyi listened patiently before saying, "Father, don't worry, Fu Qian and the others are not people who talk nonsense, don't worry so much."
"Besides, I don't think it's a stigma to like men." He smiled, but the arrogance between his brows and eyes was revealed in his calm words, "If it is really because of such absurd reasons, I want to ask Ayan to ruin his future, that can only be done." It means that this court is not good."
The emperor laughed angrily, nodded his fingers in the air, and said moodily, "Are you accusing me of being incompetent? You really dare to say it."
Even so, when he looked at the person with that sharp and proud aura underneath, he felt inexplicably gratified and proud.
Zhou Chengyi shrugged his shoulders obediently after taking advantage of it, "Father, you said this yourself."
"But your uncle has such a temperament, he owes a lesson." The emperor smiled and cursed, but he was not angry.
After laughing, the emperor didn't know what he thought of, his brows and eyes sank, he quietly observed the change in Zhou Chengyi's expression, and started to talk about business, "I called you here at this time, because I have something to tell you, I plan to establish Concubine Min For the future."
Concubine Min is the one recuperating in Zhangtai, currently the concubine with the highest status and seniority in the palace, and the concubine of Prince Zhou Chengyao.
The emperor said, "The snowstorm in the north, I will seal the empress on the grounds of destiny, and then release the news that the suppressed army has conquered ten cities—"
Zhou Chengyi's focus immediately turned away, and he said in surprise, "Uncle captured the ten cities of Beihu? Which ten cities? How about the casualties?"
The emperor choked for a moment, and threw the memorial of the victory directly into his arms, wanting to be angry or not, and said, "The point I'm talking about is to establish a queen! I plan to adopt Yu'er under the name of Concubine Min, and then I want to establish a queen dowager I still have to plan slowly, but I have already occupied the throne, and I will always block them - open their mouths."
"Yeah, my son thinks it's okay." Zhou Chengyi nodded perfunctorily, and his mind was completely on the victory report.
Zhongli Yueyi was a bold man, marched halfway, led two thousand light cavalry directly through the Western Regions, surrounded a small border town bordering the Western Regions in Beihu, captured it effortlessly, and then surrounded it on both sides The trend of the Western Regions is caught in the middle.
Originally swaying in the Western Regions, he didn't expect that Beihu, who was involved in troubles, would not be cut off first, but himself, a [-]-year-old boy, would suffer first. Immediately, he could only express his position, either completely defected to Beihu, or had to open the door to welcome Xiao Guo's army into the country.
The monarch of the Western Regions didn't dare to confront Zhong Liyue head-on, and opened the door openly. At the same time, he didn't want to give up Beihu as an ally, and even sent letters to Beihu, but Zhong Liyue naturally blocked them.
Taking advantage of Beihu's lack of time to react and his focus on Cangzhou, Zhong Liyue fought directly from the west, and defeated ten cities in just a few months.
Zhou Chengyi—seeing that something is wrong with the Western Regions, "This country has to defend itself, and can't hand over the rear to such a wall, otherwise it will be stabbed in the back."
The emperor pressed his eyebrows, resigned to his fate and continued to talk about the establishment of the empress, and talked about it obediently, "Zhen and Zhongli also think the same way. I will shrink the border trade. It is winter now, and the grassland is poor. Merchants from the Western Regions are going south to spend the winter, and it is really time for the monarch of the Western Regions to beg me to send supplies."
The emperor sneered as he spoke. He didn't know how the small country in the Western Regions, which was backed by foreign barbarians and had to depend on him for survival every year, dared to do such things.
Zhou Chengyi said with a deep understanding of this, "Perhaps Beihu is its real father."
The emperor laughed when he heard this, "The nomadic branch of the former great northern country originally originated from the Western Regions. After it was dispersed, it was divided into Outer Barbarians, Northern Turks, Northern Hu, Western Regions, and other small countries that did not have a climate. Into the Shaman."
In other words, in truth, the Western Regions are the father.
Zhou Chengyi smiled meaningfully and spread his hands, "Isn't the Western Regions always going around to recognize father, who in the foreign barbarian Xiao Kingdom doesn't call--father? It can be seen that it has hesitated? I'm afraid a son is better for it, at least it is still close relatives." For this reason, if you count two generations up carefully, you can still climb up."
"Even if he climbed up a jackal, tiger and leopard?" Luwu——should be called Zhou Chengyu now——Zhou Chengyu stood by—listening carefully, and only then interjected to ask—with a child's milky voice Milky.
Zhou Chengyi didn't underestimate her because of her young age, nodded and said, "Even if he climbed up to a jackal, even if he knew that the person who offered his help was not malicious."
"Why is that?" Zhou Chengyu didn't understand.
Zhou Chengyi thought for a while, and gave a straightforward explanation, "This is like the concept of kinship, that is, there are some people who are ungrateful for what their adoptive parents provide, and their hearts are attached to their biological parents who never gave birth to them and raised them." .”
The emperor twitched the corner of his mouth and reprimanded, "What a messy metaphor, don't spoil your sister."
"Could it be that my metaphor is not vivid?" Zhou Chengyi curled his lips.
Zhou Chengyu nodded in agreement, "It's very vivid, and I understood it immediately. Father, can I ask fourth brother some questions?"
"You ask, I want to see what else the prince can say." The emperor coughed twice, his words sounded disdainful-Gu, but he was actually very pleased, and wished that Zhou Chengyi could put his knowledge to the test. Teach it to Zhou Chengyu.
From the emperor's point of view, Zhou Chengyi's ability to be an emperor is not only excellent, but also very outstanding, even if his political views are too radical.
But this son published popular novels one after another, and he didn't even have the slightest greed for the throne. The position of the crown prince became a bondage to him. - A chicken and a dog jump.
The emperor sighed slightly when he thought of these things, and leaned back on his chair.
"That must not disappoint the emperor." After Zhou Chengyi answered this sentence, he began to teach Zhou Chengyu.
His sister's question seemed a bit unclear at first, so Zhou Chengyi found out in the answer that what Zhou Chengyu lacked was only experience, and the age limit made her half-understand some things, but once she understood, it was very difficult. It's quick to be able to make a three-pointer.
She can often say some political opinions that surprised Zhou Chengyi.
For example, Zhou Chengyu and the emperor maintained a high degree of agreement on the disposal of Lu Shangshu, and they both believed that they should be used first before the general ledger was settled.
She tried her best to suppress her tone of voice, but when she woke up, she still smelled of milk, "Of course I will reward you without hesitation for the good deeds you have done, but the evil deeds he did should not just be written off, he can be punished as he pleases." .”
Zhou Chengyi rubbed his chin—for a moment he didn't know how to evaluate her, Zhou Chengyu couldn't help feeling a little uneasy seeing him in silence for so long, he carefully recalled what he had said in his heart, and found nothing out of line.
She asked nervously, "Did I say something wrong?"
Zhou Chengyi quickly shook his head, "You're very good, I just think it would be nice if you could be a little older." You don't need to be much older, just at least ten years old.
Precocious puberty was common in ancient times. It is not uncommon for people to marry and become parents at the age of fourteen or fifteen, and it is not uncommon for a woman to be considered an adult at the age of fifteen. After ten years of age, she can already be called a teenager.
In history, there are not many and not many teenagers who are in power. Although the young master's ascension to the throne has the appearance of subjugation, his cheap father has already broken it once. The example of two successive young masters ascending the throne and finally ruling the prosperous world will be more than two hundred years earlier. It may appear in the year.
Zhou Chengyi is very optimistic about Zhou Chengyu, and has already seen some shadows of an emperor in her. As long as she is given enough time to grow, she will definitely grow into a king.
He thought about getting up and turning his head to bid farewell to the emperor, but found that the emperor, who wanted to hear what he could say, was leaning on the chair and fell asleep at this moment, with his brows furrowed, and his sleep was still restless.
It was also at this time that Zhou Chengyi realized that the emperor's complexion was not good, and the under eye circles were black and blue. He told Zhou Chengyu, who was already sleepy and struggling, to go to bed, and even threatened her to sleep late. The serious words about lack of vitamins are dubious.
In the end, he couldn't hold back the sleepiness and nodded resignedly to his fate, and went to sleep.
Zhou Chengyi called Wang He to the side, and asked in a low voice about the emperor's situation. Wang He was silent for a while, gritted his teeth and said the matter.
"Nightmare? Have you been doing it for so long?" Zhou Chengyi frowned and said speechlessly, "No wonder it doesn't seem to be improving after recuperating for so long. If you don't sleep well every day, you won't die suddenly."
"Look for some medicine to help sleep at the Imperial Hospital," Zhou Chengyi said.
Wang He replied, "It was opened, and it was useful at first, but now..."
"With drug resistance, ask the imperial doctor to change the medicine, come to the follow-up visit every day, and get some medicine if necessary, if this continues, the body will collapse first." Zhou Chengyi ordered straightforwardly, and whispered, "Father, if you To trouble you, just confess me."
"For what?" The emperor's weary voice cut in, "What are you plotting loudly in my Qianyuan Palace?"
"There's no conspiracy, it's naturally about your sleeping problem." Under Wang He's trembling gaze, Zhou Chengyi repeated what he had just ordered.
The emperor wasn't angry, but his heart felt a little warm. He pressed the center of his brows, "It's kind of conscientious, better than your uncle who can only get angry with me."
Every time the bad description is either compared with Zhong Liyue, or pushed against Zhong Liyue, one can imagine the Emperor's resentment towards him.
"Just do as you said, daydreaming is very disturbing, I'm tired." The emperor closed his eyes and leaned back on the chair, waving his hand.
I don't know if it's Zhou Chengyi's delusion, but I always feel that the emperor's expression has such a moment of patience.
He resigned and left without thinking much, and almost the moment he stepped out of Qianyuan Palace, the emperor opened his eyes and vomited blood.
"Your Majesty!" Wang He was so startled that he fell limp and knelt on the ground on the spot, crawling over with panicked and anxious hands and feet.
The emperor, the client, remained calm, wiped the blood from his lips with a handkerchief and said lightly, "What are you afraid of, I'm fine, I won't die for a while."
"Your Majesty!" Wang He's cloudy eyes were moistened, and he almost burst into tears.
The emperor just waved his hand, "Call the imperial doctor."
"Yes, yes!" Wang He crawled out in embarrassment, stood up after a while, and ran out staggeringly, but Buddha Chen didn't take it, and the hem of his clothes was still stained with blood.
But the emperor didn't have the energy to take care of it anymore. He covered his lips with a veil with an ugly face, and his violent coughing made him heart-rending, and his fingers clasped on the table were so hard that they turned white.
"Father!" Zhou Chengyu, who was sleeping in the side hall, appeared at some unknown time, and she ran over with bare feet.
The emperor coughed and couldn't speak, he just patted his head soothingly.
Zhou Chengyi walked to the gate of the East Palace, and turned back in a strange way—his heart constricted for some reason, and even the ordinary night seemed to become ominous.
"Father..." Zhou Chengyi originally wanted to tell someone to take medicine when he was sick, but he only opened his mouth and stopped. The news of the emperor's illness obviously didn't want to be revealed, so he guarded so strictly. If it wasn't for the emperor He took a nap, maybe he didn't even know it.
And what the emperor said earlier, Zhou Chengyi also listened to it, walls have ears, things can only be said to those who are close to him.
In the end Zhou Chengyi just asked the little eunuch to give Wang He a sentence of good service, presumably Wang He should be able to understand the meaning.
He went back to the East Palace, and when he entered, he found Fang Guanyan sitting in the yard waiting for him.
"Why did you wake up?" Zhou Chengyi stepped forward and grabbed his hand, it was very cold, he frowned, and immediately untied his cloak to wrap him up completely, "It's winter outside, you plan to call me Be a widow?"
Fang Guanyan stood there obediently and did not speak, only staring at him without blinking.
"What's the matter? The wine is still awake?" Zhou Chengyi looked at him as if he was not sober.
"I'm cold." After a while, Fang Guanyan spit out two words, before Zhou Chengyi could say "Is it stupid to stay outside cold?" Fang Guanyan's next sentence threw it all back, "So let's have sex."
The author has something to say: the test is coming.
small theater
Fang Guanyan: Let's have sex.
Zhou Chengyi: ...are you awake?
Fang Guanyan: Are you okay?
Zhou Chengyi: ...you are gone.
