Concubine like a house

Chapter 136 Which is Wushan and which is the cloud (3)
With the candlelight in the room, Emperor Tianshou looked down at the slim figure kneeling on the ground.The indifferent heart that was still trembling just now has a sense of righteousness and awe, and is no longer timid.This kind of indifference is obviously more familiar to him, and the scene of her refuting him in the building of picking stars that night resurfaced again, and the scene in front of him is very similar to Luan Su.

It is said that the throne is aloof, and no one around him has ever dared to disobey him like this, especially women.The feeling he hadn't seen for a long time came to his heart again. Although he was angry at what he said lightly, he felt very close.

Obviously, it was only the third time he saw her, and one of them was through a screen, but every time she met, she brought him surprises and...surprises.

It is undeniable that Danxin's analysis was extremely correct just now.As an emperor, he does not have a strong mother clan, so he can only rely on his father-in-law Zhuang Qin to support him.Although the Empress Dowager Ye is his adoptive mother, they are all for their own interests. At this point, they can only maintain the superficial filial piety of mother and son, and it is very difficult for the ninth younger brother Nie Peixiao to be caught in the middle.

The reason why Emperor Tianshou bestowed Fangzhou to Nie Peixiao was because Nie Peixiao asked for it; secondly, it showed how much he valued the ninth younger brother.But the most important point is to isolate Nie Peixiao, mother and son, and also to let Queen Mother Ye know that Nie Peixiao is in his hands.After all, Fangzhou is where he started, and he is full of his cronies.

Naturally, Nie Peixiao couldn't think of this, but Queen Mother Ye must have some scruples and dare not act rashly.But if the Yun family really married the Ye family, the move he had worked so hard to arrange would be ruined.The Yun Mansion is also in Fangzhou, and has powerful secret guards. At the beginning, Shen Yu could be sent away safely when he came out of Xiuxiu, and Mrs. Xie could also send Nie Peixiao away in the future... In fact, in the private heart of Emperor Tianshou, he and Nie Peixiao Xiao is very close, but as long as Queen Mother Ye is still alive, he has to beware of the old woman supporting her own son to ascend the throne.Therefore, Ye's prosperity is the last thing he wants to see.

Everything has both positive and negative sides, such an analysis, the Emperor Tianshou also had to say, indifferently.The most urgent task at the moment is indeed to prevent Yun's and Ye's marriage.Since I intend to support the Zhuang family, why not use Yun's resources?As long as Yun shi married Zhuang shi's daughter, it would actually improve Zhuang shi's status virtually, and it would be even more beneficial to him.

As for what the Yun family will do after the marriage, it can only be said in four words - struggle for power and fame.As Dan Xin said, Mrs. Xie has been doing these two things even if she is not married to the Zhuang family, and she has done it extremely well.That being the case, what else do you have to worry about?
Mrs. Mrs. Xie is old, and no matter how beautiful she is, it will only be ten years.As for Mrs. Chuxiu, he thought he could still control it.Thinking of this, Emperor Tianshou's heart became much clearer, and he couldn't help but look down on his heart: "According to what you said, I should be brother-in-law with Prince Yun?"

Brother-in-law?Danxin immediately uttered flattery: "You are joking, there are no kings and ministers in the world, and the rules and ethics are the first. Who would dare to be 'brother-in-law' with you? It's just outsiders talking about it."

She paused, and gave another example: "For example, Mr. Zhuang, even though he has the title of 'Patriarch of the Country', but he still can't kneel down to salute you when he sees you?"

Dan Xin's words were exactly what God meant, and his face immediately turned bright: "It turns out that you are not only good at satirizing people, but you are also good at flattering people. You have exhausted all the right and irony."

Danxin hurriedly laughed dryly: "Your servant is not flattering, but just telling the truth. Everyone in the world says 'it's easy to add flowers, but difficult to send charcoal in the snow'... At the beginning, our Yun family spent money to support your ascension to the throne, so why should you be stingy for us now? 'Icing on the cake'?"

"Papa" twice, the Emperor Tianshou clapped his palms and said with a smile: "Listen to what you said, if I obstruct the marriage, I will become a villain who doesn't know how to repay my kindness."

Danxin immediately denied it: "Your maidservant didn't say that!" Emperor Tianshou laughed again, and finally got up from his seat: "You have been kneeling, and your knees don't hurt?" "Your maidservant is used to kneeling." "Let's rest." Emperor Tianshou didn't say any more, he got up and walked out the door.

Danxin was surprised for a while, didn't he say that he wanted to... serve the bed?Seeing that Emperor Tianshou had come to the door, she secretly rejoiced in her heart, she hurriedly stood up from the ground, and bowed to the back of Emperor Tianshou: "Your Majesty, my maidservant, respectfully send you off."

Perhaps her voice was too cheerful, the Emperor Tianshou had already opened the door, but stopped in his footsteps, turned around and asked, "Drive me away?"

He quickly covered his mouth and shook his head.Emperor Tianshou wanted to tease her again: "I really want to sleep with you, but my back is fine."

Dan Xin immediately shook her head, both embarrassed and astonished: "Slave... Slave..." He hesitated twice, but he didn't say a word.

At this time, there was a gust of night wind blowing into the door, blowing Dan Xin's shawl and black hair.The black silk satin curtain slowly opened, just like the end of a play, but the end of the curtain this time is also for the opening of the next one!

The Emperor Tianshou withdrew his teasing gaze, and took one last look at her: "Are you 23?" Danxin didn't dare to speak any more, and just nodded. "If the female officials in the palace don't have a marriage, they can leave the palace at the age of 25." The Emperor Tianshou put down these endless words, and walked out of the indifferent room.He stepped out of the hospital and saw Chuxiu and Nie Peixiao at a glance.The two were followed by their respective guards, both of them were silent, relatively speechless.

As the imperial bodyguard, Cen Jiang was the first to see Emperor Tianshou come out. He was first taken aback, then surprised, and then bowed to salute, "Your Majesty."

Nie Peixiao also came back to her senses, and looked at Tianshoudi: "So fast?" As soon as the words came out, he knew he had made a slip of the tongue, and he pursed his lips and stopped talking.

On the contrary, when he came out of Xiu and saw that the emperor was neatly dressed and his expression was cold, he couldn't help but heaved a long sigh of relief: "My lord, my maidservant has all her hands and feet, I hope you will be merciful..."

"Madam's maidservant often bumps into me." Tianshoudi took up the conversation without waiting for Chuxiu's words to fall, looked up at the moonlight and said, "As expected of the big maid of Yunfu, Madam taught well."

Chuxiu was disturbed by this sentence. Hearing the first sentence, the emperor clearly meant to blame him; listening to the second sentence, it was clearly a compliment.Does Emperor Tianshou blame Danxin, or praise Danxin?I can't figure it out when I go out of Xiuxiu.She was thinking to herself, but the emperor suddenly asked: "Why didn't Danxin marry?"

Chuxiu couldn't talk about Zhuying, and he was afraid that the God-Sent Emperor would miss it, so he hurriedly said, "It's my concubine's mistake, which has delayed her. I just found a suitable marriage this year, and I'm planning to make the decision to let her marry. "

Emperor Tianshou's expression was indistinguishable, and he could not see his happiness or anger hidden under the brilliance of the clear moon: "Who?" He asked lightly.Chuxiu couldn't figure out his thoughts, so he could only truthfully say: "I don't want to go out of the mansion to marry far away, and I also like the housekeeper in the mansion, and I plan to protect the matchmaking for the two of them." , After pondering for a moment, he asked again: "Have you ever discussed marriage?" "Not yet." At the forefront, Emperor Tianshou walked quickly in silence.Several men followed behind with strides, but Chuxiu had to trot to keep up.Seeing that Emperor Tianshou was about to leave the mansion, he came out of Xiu and said to Zhuying, "Go and tell Yunfeng that those who should welcome people should welcome them, and those who should prepare cars should prepare cars." Zhuying said yes, and went a step ahead to make arrangements.

Afterwards, the few people walked all the way to the outer courtyard without a word, and it was only at this time that Emperor Tianshou spoke again, and said to Chuxiu: "I will return to Beijing in three days, and I have a lot of government affairs before I leave, so I won't bother Madam any more."

Counting the days, it is indeed time for Emperor Tianshou to return to court, and he bowed his head when he came out of Xiuxiu to salute: "The concubine will go to send the emperor off at that time."

Emperor Tianshou waved his hand: "No need. You can just teach Shizi Yun to see you off." Chuxiu was slightly surprised: "Cheng'er is only 14 years old, which is not in accordance with the etiquette." "Why is it not in accordance with the etiquette?" Don't you even have the ability to do this?"

The meaning of this is... Chuxiu suddenly realized: "You want to marry Cheng'er?" Emperor Tianshou said "Yes": "After thinking about it before and after, it's not bad. Although she is a concubine, she is also Zhuang Xiang. She is an old girl who is loved very much at home. After returning to the palace, I will ask the queen to ask her what she wants, and if she is willing, I will be the beauty of an adult."

This sudden change was so fast that Chuxiu couldn't believe it.Of course, she was so surprised that she couldn't believe it: "I thank the Holy Grace!" In front of all these people, since the Emperor Tianshou has agreed to the marriage, there is absolutely no room for repentance!The smile on the face of Xiuxiu is more and more revealing, standing gracefully with the wind in it is stunning, better than a hundred flowers blooming, leaving the world free from vulgarity.

The Emperor Tianshou glanced at Chuxiu's stunning smile, and his lips curled up alluringly: "You don't need to thank me, go and thank Danxin." "Danxin?" What does it matter about Danxin?However, Emperor Tianshou didn't give any further explanations, and walked to the main gate of Yun Mansion without slowing down. Shen Yu had already been waiting here to send off the holy car.

Emperor Tianshou slowed down, stopped when passing by Shen Yu, and said to him: "In three days, you will return to Beijing with me to receive the title, and you will be reassigned by the way, and handed over to the Ministry of War."

Sealed?It seems that the title of "Marquis of Weiyuan" has also been confirmed. Shen Yu is both happy and worried. He is happy that he is finally named a marquis, and worried that he will part with Chuxiu again.

Just as Shen Yu was thinking about it, he heard Nie Peixiao ask: "Brother Emperor, will the minister also return to Beijing with the army?" Let’s go to Fangzhou, and Shen Yu will report to you on your behalf.” Nie Peixiao knew that God’s granting of the emperor was to create opportunities for himself: “My brother will take the order.”

The Emperor Tianshou gave a "hmm" and walked again.Yunfeng stood near the door and knelt down to see him off. Emperor Tianshou deliberately stopped in front of him, seemed to remember something, and said to Chuxiu: "Ma'am, I want someone from you."

Chuxiu felt a "click" in her heart, and she dared not ask who it was.

Emperor Tianshou didn't even give her a chance to ask: "Your maidservant is good, I plan to let her go to the palace for two years to serve the pen and ink full-time."

"Your Majesty!" Chuxiu was taken aback, he didn't expect Emperor Tianshou to make such an arrangement, and subconsciously wanted to say no.

Emperor Tianshou just talked to himself, as if he didn't see Chuxiu's expression in his eyes: "It is stipulated in the palace that female officials can leave the palace to marry at the age of 25. She is now 23, and it will only be two years. As long as she behaves decently There is no mistake, when she leaves the palace, I will praise her and find a good marriage for her."

When he heard the words "23 years old", Yun Feng's expression changed when he was kneeling on the ground, and he immediately guessed the candidate that Emperor Tianshou was talking about.He looked up suddenly, just in time to see the emperor's charming narrow phoenix eyes sweeping towards him, and his eyes seemed to stay on him for a moment.

This gaze was inconceivably quick, and when Yun Feng focused his attention and reacted, Emperor Tianshou had withdrawn his gaze and turned to look at Xiu: "She is currently injured and unable to go on the road, I will allow her to recuperate for two months before leaving for Beijing."

After saying that, he pointed to Nie Peixiao: "I will leave this matter to you. Send some reliable people to take her to Beijing. The road is hot in summer, so pay attention to heatstroke prevention."

"Your brother obeys the order." Nie Peixiao was also very surprised.Not to mention that the Emperor Tianshou asked for a maidservant for the first time, this order alone is unprecedented.What "summer is hot" and what "pay attention to heatstroke prevention" are naturally taking care of your heart!

Nie Peixiao calmly gave Cen Jiang a look, and Cen Jiang glanced at Yunfeng who was kneeling on the ground.With just this wink, Nie Peixiao immediately reacted, and added meaningfully: "Brother Huang, don't worry, I promise that Miss Danxin will enter the palace safely."

Emperor Tianshou gave a "hmm" and finally turned to Chuxiu and said, "I'm bothering you today. Thank you Madam for your hospitality. I would like to say hello to Madam Tai on my behalf." After saying that, Sasha got on his horse and rode away, and Nie Peixiao rode to follow.

Most soldiers and horses have this habit. Like Nie Peixiao, Tianshoudi doesn't like to ride a car but only likes to ride a horse.After watching the two nobles gallop away, Chuxiu also fell into endless worries.

She was 1 reluctant to send Danxin into the palace, and Danxin would not be willing either.But if he refuses to send Danxin into the palace, Yun Cheng's marriage may be ruined.Emperor Tianshou clearly used this incident as an excuse to try to calm down in disguise.

Once entering the palace, the gate is as deep as the sea, and it is easy to enter the palace and difficult to leave the palace.Although Emperor Tianshou's heart is attached to Luansu, can he withstand the unbearable years in the palace?Danxin's character is similar to Luan Su's, and she enters the palace to serve pen and ink, and she is always by the king's side... What if the emperor takes a fancy to her one day?
Taking ten thousand steps back, even if Emperor Tianshou had no intentions, Danxin is famous for his outspokenness. If he accidentally offended Longyan by speaking, his life would be lost in Yingyuan Palace!
The more Chuxiu thinks about it, the more he feels that there is no master. Looking at Yunfeng and the others in front of the door, they all have their own thoughts. , Ning Sheng opened his mouth and said: "No one is allowed to say a word about tonight's matter! I will tell Mrs. Tai, if someone leaks the slightest bit of news first, it will be the secret of the Tian family, and I will not be able to keep you at that time."

Everyone said yes, but Yun Feng still looked lost.Seeing him like this, Chuxiu couldn't help comforting him: "You go back and rest first, maybe there is a turning point for this matter."

Up to now, Yun Feng has no choice but to smile wryly and say, "Mrs. Xie is sympathetic." Chu Xiu nodded and looked at Shen Yu again.They haven't seen each other in recent days, and she doesn't know what to say to him.After thinking about it for a while, I felt that matters of indifference are the top priority, so I said to Shen Yu: "The Nishang Pavilion has been cleaned up, and my uncle can live in tonight."

Shen Yu frowned, feeling frustrated by her alienation: "I live in the south chamber." "Mother will blame me." Chuxiu said again.Regardless of the presence of his servants, Shen Yu looked at her scorchingly: "Mrs. Tai is not to blame for this matter." Chuxiu was embarrassed by this refutation, and deliberately evaded: "I'll go to Danxin to ask something, young master, please feel free. "

She didn't want to entangle Shen Yu in front of the servants, so she stopped talking and left.Zhu Ying took a deep look at Shen Yu, and then followed.
