On the other side, the officials of the Cui Cang county government, although the emperor only talked to General Xu after landing, and did not meet the officials here as a rule, they did not dare to slacken their efforts. They were afraid that the emperor would be summoned at any time.

So, all wait outside of this courtyard.

After waiting for a long time, even Gong didn’t dare to come out, and they kept guarding each other miserably. Finally, in the middle of the night, he saw General Xu coming out of it, and only waved his hand and said to them: "The emperor will not be summoned today. Everyone, go down."

This kind of breath was relieved at first, but then there was some regret.

After all, His Majesty the Emperor rarely comes to a small county like them, and everyone hopes to take this opportunity to show his face in front of the emperor.

Therefore, after everyone went down and relaxed for a while, they each ate half of the steamed buns, and when they were full, they returned to the courtyard one by one, and found a place to rest so that the emperor could go in at any time when they were summoned.

All night, everyone just took a nap.

Even Xian Cheng Lu Boying didn't even lie down on the bed, and sat upright in a chair.

I was afraid that I would crumple my clothes.

Just when everyone was so cautious, a small servant ran in and gave Lu Boying a little lightly. He bounced off the chair: "The emperor? Does the emperor summon the next official?"

The young man was also taken aback.

Several officials around were awakened by surprise and looked around with their eyes wide open: "The emperor? The emperor summoned?"

"Hurry up!"

The young man couldn't laugh or cry, and said: "My lord, the emperor didn't summon you all, the emperor - he went out."

"what?"

When Lu Boying heard this, her eyes widened in astonishment: "The emperor has gone out? Where did he go?"

"Go to the river, say yes, to pay homage to Lord Ye."

"what!?"

Lu Boying turned pale when she heard it.

Although they all know that Master Ye is not only a high official position, but more importantly, he is the emperor’s confidant, a person who has followed the emperor in the mansion since he was a child. Such a person has had an accident in his own jurisdiction, and he is still dead. , They must be in bad luck, I'm afraid this official uniform will be stripped off.

However, they did not expect that the emperor would personally go to pay homage to Ye Qi.

The emperor personally pays homage!

You know, from ancient times to the present, the emperor only pays tribute to his ancestors, or sacrifices to heaven and earth when he is ennouncing Zen, when he has seen the emperor pay tribute to other people, and he is his courtier.

However, His Majesty the Emperor actually paid homage to Ye Wei himself! ?

This, I'm afraid it is the honor that the concubines of the harem cannot get!

Thinking of this, several officials were so scared that their legs were trembling. Now the emperor has finally come to Cuicang County. They have been waiting to be in front of the emperor to plead guilty, but they did not expect that the emperor did not see them at all, and now he went to pay homage to Ye Yu. They were not accompanied either.

This, I am afraid it is not to punish a few of the nine races.

Several officials shivered around Lu Boying and asked, "Master Lu, what should we do now?"

Lu Boying thought for a while with a pale face, and said: "What else can I do? I have to go to serve as soon as possible. As long as I can talk to the emperor, there will always be a chance for us."

After speaking, he took everyone out in a hurry.

The group immediately went out of the city in a sedan chair, and hurried to the river. The place was already full of guards beside the emperor. The ordinary people were also dispersed. Lu Boying took a group of officials and got off the sedan chair. The guard standing in front of them said: "The official is the county chief of Cuicang County, and these are all officials from Cuicang County. We are all here to serve the emperor."

The guards said coldly: "The emperor pays homage to Lord Ye, and has already ordered that the idlers and others should not be approached. For a few, don't disturb the emperor."

"Yes, Lord Ye is the emperor's confidant. The emperor pays tribute to him, so naturally he can't let others be present."

"If you disturb the emperor, no one can keep you!"

Upon hearing this, several officials looked at each other and could not speak.

I could only step back cautiously and wait for the emperor's ceremony to be over, so I could take a look when he came out.

At this time, standing on the altar specially built for this memorial by the river, lighting the eulogy and placing it in the brazier, watching all the words slowly being swallowed by the flame, and finally turned into a pile of ashes. Zhu Feng's face became paler in the sun.

He slowly raised a glass of wine and spilled it into the river.

The river was gurgling, and with that little clear wine, it flowed into the distance.

However, Zhu Feng's gaze did not follow the direction of the river flowing, but turned his head and looked towards the upper reaches of the river.

The sun shone on the water, reflecting sparkling waves.

It looks quiet and leisurely.

However, everyone knows that under such a quiet and leisurely, there is an unknown number of dark tides hidden, the more calm, the closer the danger.

Seeing the twinkling light, Zhu Feng narrowed his eyes slightly.

No one knows what his mind is with the same twinkling eyes.

At this time, Nan Yan's low voice came from behind--

"emperor."

At this time, only the imperial concubine dared to approach the emperor.

Zhu Feng turned his head, Nan Yan saw his pale face at a glance. Although his expression was still indifferent, only at such a close distance could he see his eyes flushing again.

Nan Yan said softly, "The emperor, if Ye Yu is here, I don't want to see the emperor doing this for him."

"..."

Zhu Feng looked at her for a while, then took a deep breath.

Said: "Let's go."

He took Nan Yan's hand, and the two walked off the temporary altar, but instead of walking back the same way they had come before, they walked down the river bank.

It looked like it was walking.

Xu Shifeng and Li Buhuo brought the people on both sides, and they all followed.

Originally, Lu Boying and the others, who had been waiting on another road, saw that the surrounding people started to walk downstream. They were all startled. They couldn't take the sedan chair anymore. They hurriedly followed, but the more they walked, the more they found that something was wrong.

They actually walked back to the pier where His Majesty the Emperor arrived yesterday.

The dragon boat was already waiting there.

"This, what's going on?!"

At this time, Lv Boying couldn't pay attention to the rules, and hurried forward with his clothes. The other officials did not dare to be like him, so they could only stand anxiously and look forward with their toes.

Lu Boying got on the dock and saw Xu Shifeng at a glance.

He rushed to Xu Shifeng's face sweating profusely, and said, "General Xu, what's going on? Why did the emperor come here?"

Xu Shifeng glanced at him and said, "The emperor has paid homage to Lord Ye. Now, he is going to Jinling."

"what?!"
