The whole city knows we are locked

It is very rare for Wu Xun and Qingliu of this dynasty to marry each other.

On the one hand, due to political considerations, Wu Xun and Qingliu belong to two factions in terms of political power, which can be described as distinct.It's more because Wu Xun and Qingliu can't be in harmony in all aspects of life, and it is easy to produce resentment when they are forced together.To give the simplest example, Yan Chuyin calls Shen Yu by his name every day.This is very common in Wu Xun, and everyone calls it that.But literati Qingliu would feel impolite, why don't you call me by my name?

And when it comes to this difference in daily appellation, if you look forward, you can still pull out an old incident in the Tai/Zu period.

Tai/Zu did not hide his life experience, he was the adopted son of a butcher.Many of the first people who followed him in the uprising were countrymen.Not to mention that these people have no words, even their names are extremely vulgar.Some are called Er Gouzi, some are called Wild Pigs, and there is another one called "Ji Sheng"!It is said that when his mother gave birth to him, she was feeding the chickens with a big belly, so she gave birth to him beside the chicken coop.

When Tai/Zu came to the throne, these people also got official positions.They really want to learn how rich and noble people should behave, but they don't like it!The result was a lot of jokes.At a certain banquet, someone was laughed at because of the problem of daily address.If you disobey me and I disobey you, the matter will become serious.

Being used by someone with a heart, this matter turned out to be a major event that requires everyone to stand in line!

At that time, like Yan Chuyin's ancestor, the first Ping Guogong, they were actually different from the group of people who followed the Tai/Zu first. The first Ping Guogong came to seek refuge with power, and his family already had some background.People like Duke Ping of the first generation, even if they can't be called full of knowledge, have studied seriously, so they are naturally talented.

But in the big environment at that time, Wu Xun had to stand in line!

This is no longer a simple question of appellation. Once a compromise is made to the civil servant, it is an admission that Wu Xun's education is not enough!After the initial determination of the world, there were no wars in various places, and the opportunities for military meritorious deeds gradually decreased, and the importance of civil servants became more prominent.If Wu Xun took a step back, he would be forced to take more steps back.

The later solution to this matter was - you civil servants are used to calling each other by their names, so go ahead and call each other, anyway, we Wu Xun don't talk about this!The warriors directly call each other official positions, such as a certain commander, a certain general, and so on.

The juniors from Wu Xun’s family don’t get their characters before the crowning ceremony, so they just call their names; after the crowning ceremony, they have characters, but they are still 20 years old at that time. , Regardless of the size of the official position, it can be called by the official position.Occasionally someone who is incompetent and has no job when he is old, so he will be called the ranking at home, and Zhang San and Wu Qi will be called indistinctly.It cannot be said that there are no rules, this is Wu Xun's rules.

In Yan Chuyin's generation, he was very used to calling his classmates by their names.If it weren't for the exchange with Shen Yu, there would hardly be a young talent like Shen Yu who takes characters when he is not as weak as the crown in his life.Naturally, he didn't use words to address Shen Yu's consciousness.Fortunately, Shen Yu was considerate, and never murmured anything in his heart because of it.

There are many more situations like this.

Wu Xun and Qing Liu are like cats and dogs.Cats wag their tails to indicate aggressiveness, and dogs wag their tails to indicate affection.If the two parties are not familiar, the dog wags its tail vigorously, but provokes the cat to be furious, and is served by a cat punch, how wronged the dog is!It means that the two parties are familiar, and the dog knows not to wag its tail in front of the cat, but it has become a dog's instinct to wag its tail when it is happy, and it is not very pleasant to tell it to suppress the instinct.

So under normal circumstances, Wu Xun didn't find Qing Liu as his in-laws, and vice versa.

You must know that the Duke of Pingguo is very important in Wu Xun, not to mention the status of the prime minister in Qingliu. If the two parties really marry, the influence must be huge... Wait, both sides are boys, what kind of marriage? !

The emperor stared at Yan Chuyin for a long time, wondering what he was thinking.

Yan Chuyin asked suspiciously: "Uncle Huang, you have other arrangements for this house, don't you?" Calling the emperor's uncle to object--the emperor's uncle has already allowed them--instead, he helped the emperor think of another reason.

The emperor is very busy at the moment, the affairs of the previous dynasty and the affairs of the aristocratic family are all gathered together, which consumes his energy.It's nothing more than the remnants of the previous dynasty. Anyway, the culprit has been caught, and we just need to wait for Cao Xiang to catch the remnants.The most important thing is the aristocratic family, the Liu family sent troops to surround it, and the Qian family waited for the eldest son-in-law to inherit. There are many interests involved here. Whether the aristocratic family can be completely suppressed depends on one action.

The emperor really couldn't devote any extra energy to Yan Chuyin!

But this is his beloved junior, his sister's only son, the child he watched grow up, the emperor must not ignore it.He asked thoughtfully: "You and Liuyuan... who started it first? When did it start?"

Yan Chuyin said enthusiastically: "Of course it's me!" He couldn't help showing off. After the number one scholar paraded through the streets, at the Qionglin Jade Banquet, he secretly kissed Shen Yu, which was considered a stamp for Shen Yu!From now on, Shen Yu is his man.

"Oh, fine, you can go back first." The emperor nodded at Yan Chuyin, "The house is reserved for you."

The emperor wanted to call Shen Yu to speak, and was afraid that Yan Chuyin would go directly to Shen Yu when he left the palace, so he found a reason to send Yan Chuyin to the prince.Yan Chuyin thought to himself, he and the prince's elder brother are so close, but the prince still doesn't know anything about him and Shen Yu, how can this work?So he obediently went to the prince.

As soon as Yan Chuyin left, the emperor ordered his servants to find Shen Yu.

The valet wiped the cold sweat off his brow, and went out to deliver the decree.

The Imperial Academy is not far from the Imperial Study, and Shen Yu came very quickly.The emperor said straight to the point: "I already know about the matter between you and Yinu. Are you... in love with each other?" Speaking of the last word, the corner of the emperor's mouth twitched.He felt that the word was too hot, and he didn't know how Yinnu did it, so he said it calmly.

Shen Yu was surprised.Yesterday at the eldest princess's mansion, the emperor hadn't seen through the real relationship between him and Yinu, why did he suddenly know now?And no matter what the emperor meant, he didn't seem to be that angry?

But Shen Yu's astonishment fell into the eyes of the emperor, which obviously had another meaning.

The emperor nodded knowingly: "Which one of you started first? When did you start?"

"It's the minister..." Shen Yu just blamed himself for everything, and he didn't think he was lying.Although it was after the Qionglin banquet that he and Yan Chuyin exchanged their hearts, he didn't face up to his own feelings until then.If we say when this kind of intention started, it must have been a long, long time ago.So Shen Yu felt that he started it first.As for when it started... I don't know the origin of the love, but the love is deep.

The emperor listened patiently for a while, nodded and said: "Okay, I understand, let's go down."

Shen Yu: "!!!"

This reaction is wrong!Why is the emperor not angry at all?Based on the importance he attaches to Yan Chuyin, if Shen Yu and Yan Chuyin are just playing around in private, then that's fine, it's just the absurdity of young people before marriage.But since the two want to be together in a serious way, and don't care about any heirs or marriages, the emperor must be angry!

Could this be the calm before the storm?In fact, the emperor was very angry?

Who in the world can bear the wrath of the emperor?

Shen Yu was anxious, and threw her whole body on the ground, with her forehead pressed against the ground: "Your Majesty, all mistakes are the fault of my humble minister, and it is my humble minister who is despicable, wanting to seize the moon of the nine heavens..." The proud little duke How could it be wrong?

"Liu Yuan, why belittle yourself. That's enough, I already know what happened between you and Yin Nu." The emperor didn't blame Shen Yu.From the emperor's point of view, Shen Yu was so measured, he probably stopped Yan Chuyin, but he couldn't.

Few people in this world can stop Yan Chuyin!

Shen Yu went back full of tension and bewilderment.As soon as he left, the emperor complained to his confidantes and servants: "The crimes of the previous dynasty are accusing Liu Yuan. Since I already know the truth, I naturally don't blame Liu Yuan. Yin Nu still wants to toss about this... Could it be? Can't you trust me? The most damnable ones are those relics from the previous dynasty!"

Attendant: "..."

Your majesty, I did not mislead you this time!If something goes wrong, I can't blame the slave!

In the emperor's heart, the truth of the matter is roughly like this: the relics of the previous dynasty clung to Shen Yu, and Shen Yu's status was suddenly awkward. Yue is together, men can't have children, you are equivalent to extinct, and the bad influence will disappear immediately.

The emperor thought to himself, Yinnu must have come up with such a nonsensical idea, and Shen Liuyuan eighty-nine times out of ten disagreed.But Shen Yu couldn't stop Yan Chuyin. After all, she made Yan Chuyin come to the palace to talk nonsense.The confessions of the two were not correct, so one was talking about Qionglin Banquet, and the other was talking about love.

Then why didn't Shen Yu tell the truth?

This showed Shen Yu's benevolent side.Yinnu first said that they were in love with each other, and Shen Yu wanted to say that it was a lie. Didn't Yan Chuyin commit the crime of deceiving the emperor?Shen Yu could only blame herself for all the faults.

The emperor is also eccentric!As a subject, if Shen Yu helps others to deceive the Holy Majesty, no matter how big or small the matter is, the Emperor will definitely not treat him.But Shen Yu helped Yan Chuyin to cover up, in the emperor's heart, it was an expression of empathy and righteousness, and felt that Shen Yu was very worthy of Yan Chuyin's sincerity in treating him, so he looked up to Shen Yu even more.

The emperor sighed: "Even Yin Nu knows that he is playing tricks on me."

The attendant couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, Xin Lehou has always said something." I suspect that the relationship between Xin Lehou and Shen Liuyuan is true, please stop complaining about yourself, and if you delay it, your nephew will be gone soon. ah!

The emperor sighed again: "What is the magical power of Liuyuan, that it made Yinnu play tricks on me?"

The attendant hinted: "Your Majesty, why don't you just tell Xin Lehou that Liu Yuan is not involved in the legacy?" As long as you do this, and then look at Xin Lehou's reaction, you will know whether the relationship between him and Shen Liuyuan is true or not. that's it.

The emperor snorted: "Oh, I won't tell. I'll watch them play! Let's see how long they can play!" The emperor's uncle felt a little jealous in his heart, feeling that Yan Chuyin valued Shen Yu more than himself.The emperor is also arrogant!

After half a day, the prince came in a hurry and asked to see the emperor outside the imperial study.

"Father, Yinnu said that he and Shen Liuyuan... also said that you have agreed to this matter?" Come to the emperor and say.

Unexpectedly, the emperor nodded in front of him: "Yes, I agree."

The prince stared at the emperor in disbelief.Royal Father, Yin Nu is ignorant, and you are also ignorant?

"This matter is absolutely unacceptable. Let the Empress Dowager and Aunt Jingfu know about it later. They must..." The prince tried hard to persuade.If you don't know how much the emperor attaches importance to Princess Jingfu and Yan Chuyin, how much he respects the Eastern Queen Mother and how much he relies on the current Duke of Ping, you may think that the emperor deliberately wants to see the Duke of Ping as extinct!

Father, no matter how much you dote on Yin Nu, you can't allow him to have a mutual promise with a man for the rest of his life!
