Chapter 45
"If you had known you would come to see Lotus Lantern, you should have lived opposite." Duan Baiyue said, "the horizon is more open."
"It's not a little doll watching the Lantern Festival. You must squeeze to the front to see it clearly." Chu Yuan smiles to see him, "you said yourself, the palace is too stuffy, come out to breathe."
This is the busiest street in the king's city. Even if the window is half closed, you can still hear the noise below. When the steaming sugar and oil cake is fried in the pot, the aroma will immediately go up to the second floor, full of sweet fragrance.
"Eat?" Asked Duan Baiyue.
Chu Yuan nodded: "yes."
"Wait for me." Duan Baiyue gets up and goes out the door.
Duan Yao said in the next room, "I want to eat it, too." How can you smell so sweet.
"Be obedient and patient." Nanmoxie continued to lie on the wall and patted his head with a hand. "When the master takes you downstairs to eat hot food."
Chu Yuan stood by the window and watched the white moon cross the street. He and a group of little dolls crowded together to buy sugar cakes. After buying, he went to the dim sum shop next door. When he finally came back, he did not forget to bring some bags of stewed beef.
"Try it." It's good to see people in line every day
"The owner of this shop used to be the imperial chef in the palace." Chu Yuan also did not use chopsticks, with his hand pinch a piece of cow liver to eat, "later, once accidentally broke his leg, he quit the palace business, went to live in Jiangnan hometown for three years, but also thought about his son's daughter-in-law in Wangcheng. He just came back a few years ago, so he opened the eight Fang bittern restaurant."
"Remember so clearly?" Duan Baiyue was in an accident.
"Try it." Chu Yuan said, "you should like it."
Duan Baiyue casually took a piece of beef tendon and threw it into his mouth, nodding: "it's really good."
"Just good?" Chu Yuan looks at him.
"Well?" Duan Baiyue thought for a moment: "otherwise, I would like to praise a few more words? It's crisp but not rotten. It's moderately fat and thin. It's red in color and melts in the mouth. "
Duan Yao and nanmoxie were swallowing water together next door, slightly thirsty.
Chu Yuan shook his head and said, "when you were eight years old, you went into the palace and said that you like to eat this. You also said that you would send cooks from Xinan mansion to study in the future."
Duan Baiyue said:
"I know you forgot." Chu Yuan leisurely way, "punish today not to eat."
"It's not unforgivable to forget a dish of bittern more than ten years ago?" Duan Baiyue moved a chair and sat beside him, "well, I haven't forgotten anything important."
"For example?" Chu Yuan asked.
"For example, we will go back to the southwest together one day." Duan Baiyue said, "you promised me at that time."
"Well?" Chu Yuanxue, with his cheek on his back, "can't remember, forget."
"I didn't forget it." Duan Baiyue helps him blow cool oil cake, "some hot, eat slowly."
"What is that?" Chu Yuan saw a pile of scattered bags in the corner of the wall.
Duan Baiyue said: "the thing that can be easily tolerated." After all, the royal city is no better than other land boundaries, and there are many officials who know themselves. In order to avoid trouble, it is better to be careful.
Chu Yuan took a closer look at his face.
Duan Baiyue laughs: "it's OK, the skin is rough and the flesh is thick. It's different from you."
"Is it worth it?" Chu Yuan asked.
Duan Baiyue said: "value."
Chu Yuan looked at him for a moment, but he didn't know what to say. He was also a frontier king, but he even wanted to walk on the street in an open and upright way. Is it really worth it?
"Thinking again." Duan Baiyue sighed and pinched his chin. "All said, don't regret what happened then."
Chu Yuan's voice is very low: "now this world mentions you, can all be scolding."
"Who said, a while ago no princess wanted to marry me." Duan Baiyue didn't care, "what's more, what can you scold? What's more, it's nothing more than a wolf's ambition. If I care about this, I'm really fed up with worms. "
Chu Yuan did not speak, still in trance. In the past decade or so, they have used each other and depended on each other for life and death. They have said too much and done too much. They have no idea what they think. Even now, occasionally, I still feel in a trance and feel that I can't see the people in front of me and the way to the future.
"Why is it so quiet next door?" Duan Yao has no idea.
Nanmoxie hissed at him, gently opened the door of the house, and crept to the door of the two people's house and continued to listen.
Duan Baiyue frowned and looked at him anxiously: "what's the matter?"
Chu Yuan stroked his cheek with one hand and kissed him with his eyes closed.
Outside the door, Duan Yao was so excited that she crept in like her master to listen to the corner of the wall. However, nanmoxie grabbed her from her neck and forced her back to her room.
The baby can't see it. If you kiss me, you will learn to be bad.
The touch on his lips is too real, and his mind seems to have something suddenly broken. Duan Baiyue is stunned for a moment, and then he holds his waist and presses him heavily on the wall.Chu Yuan just looked at him and did not speak.
Duan Baiyue has some bloodstains in her eyes. She doesn't know what to think. But I didn't think that one day he would take the initiative to cross the fragile line that had been carefully covered up by the two people for so many years.
Even if it's just this moment, it's better not to think about the country and the country. Knowing that after an impulse, it may be doomed, and I don't want to take care of it. Duan Baiyue lowers her head and kisses her in her arms. Chu Yuan's eyelashes are trembling, and her tongue tip is soft and hot. It's like dodging or catering.
It's not clear how long it took for Duan Baiyue to release her arm a little, but she didn't want to let her go, so she got close to her relative again.
Chu Yuan reached out and pushed him away. His ears were red.
The room is quiet.
A moment later, Chu Yuan said, "I'm going back to the palace."
Duan Baiyue said, "don't you want me?"
Chu Yuan:.... "
Huaibai will take me back a while ago
"Meet Gu Yunchuan tonight." Chu Yuan way, "he may really have something important to look for you."
"Good." Duan Baiyue agreed.
Outside the window came the laughter of the people, floating on the river, at least there are hundreds of lotus lamp, staggering, winding into a string.
Chu Yuan stood beside the bed, looking at the lights.
"Make a wish?" Duan Baiyue hugged him from behind, "maybe it will come true."
Chu Yuan said: "you may be happy and healthy in this life."
Duan Baiyue shook his head: "it's not me, it's us."
Chu Yuan held his hand around his waist, slowly clasped his fingers, and leaned back in his arms.
Along the river, Liu Dajiong is eating sweet scented osmanthus dumplings with Tao Rende. Naturally, it's the same that Tai Fu pays.
"Next time, I'll ask the emperor to approve the folding. You'll give your grandson a treasure." Liu Dajiong complained, "don't implicate the innocent."
"Isn't your head fresh? It's just come to the ground. The emperor hasn't seen it yet. He's thinking about it." Tao Rende said, "my grandson makes trouble in the palace every day. I go back to the emperor and have a headache."
"You are a great sinner." Liu Dajiong said, "our Emperor didn't want to accept the imperial concubine's talent show originally. If he saw a cute baby, he might change his mind. Now it's more and more useless."
"I mean it." Tao Rende left the dumpling spoon, "you talk to people every day, but you don't see one to the emperor."
"That's our emperor. How can ordinary people deserve it?" Liu Dajiong was eloquent. "The first time I took the imperial concubine, she had to be outstanding in appearance, noble in birth, and knowledgeable about cold and heat. How many families in this royal city can match?"
Tao Rende shook his head again and again: "there is no one in the king's city, so go outside and look for it. It's just that I'm going to Beixing palace for a while. Take a closer look along the way. I've been dancing all the time recently. Maybe I'm married. "
"Listen to my advice, your eyelids jump, it's a pity to do too much, how can you jump out of marriage." Liu Dajiong's face was full of disdain. "Besides, you can see this spot on your forehead. Don't give our emperor a pockmarked one."
Tao felt that sooner or later, he would be angry with the matchmaker.
Duan Baiyue also happens to ask: "the northern palace?"
"Well." Chu Yuan nodded, "every year at this time, I will go there for a while. It's a rule set by my father to see the people along the way and broaden our horizons Then he stopped and laughed, "but I always think it's because he thinks it's too hot in the city, so he's looking for a summer resort."
Duan Baiyue said: "Yunde city is located in the deep mountain, which is much cooler than here."
"And you?" Chu Yuan asked, "do you want to go back to the southwest?"
Duan Baiyue said, "no return."
"Not afraid of border chaos after coming out for such a long time?" Chu Yuan turned to look at him.
Duan Baiyue said: "when you have seen it with your own eyes, you will know that the southwest border, which is probably the most stable border in Dachu, depends on more than just military repression. Previously, the 72 villages in the Miao Autonomous Region were battling with each other every day to poison each other in order to fight for a little bit of food for the house. Now, after the reunification, everyone has a house to live in and a field to cultivate. The southwest government will give rewards from time to time. Life is good. They are no more ambitious and skillful than those bandits and wolves in Mobei. Even if they are united, they can't make a big storm. They can't even get out of the southwest, let alone the royal city. Why should they ask for nothing? "
"You have a day when you talk about other people's ambition." Chu Yuan touched his chest with his back brain.
"When I hold them to raise a flag, do you think that when the news reaches the king's city, will Tao Taifu be scared out?" Asked Duan Baiyue.
Chu Yuan couldn't help crying and laughing: "this can also be pulled to Taifu adults?"
"He scolds me every day, and you don't let me fight." Duan Baiyue chin against his shoulder, "can only gossip." It's a grievance.
Later, the people watching the lotus lamp gradually began to disperse, and Duan Baiyue also sent Chu Yuan back to the palace.
Nan Mo Xie and Duan Yao were lying on the window sill, and Yin Yin Mu sent them away, almost half of them.
You must stay in the palace tonight!Si Xi's father-in-law is dozing in front of the bedroom door. When he hears the noise, he opens his eyes and sees that both of them have come back.
"Did anyone come to me during this time?" Chu Yuan asked.
"No, very quiet." Four Xi's father-in-law laughs and laughs. The Emperor may go out for a stroll.
"Then have a good rest." Duan Baiyue said, "I'll go to see what's wrong with brother Gu, and then --"
"and then I'll go back to the Inn and have a rest." Chu Yuan patted his side face, "these days, you didn't sleep well. Tonight, when you finished, you thought it would be midnight again. Don't run around again."
"No problem." Duan Baiyue smiles, "I'll come to see you tomorrow night."
Chu Yuan nodded to see him jump over the courtyard wall to leave, feeling a little want to laugh.
The movement is more and more skilled.
"The emperor." See him in a good mood, four Xi also happy, in a side way, "can you pass hot water bath?"
"After a while, it's still early." Chu Yuan said, "I'll go to see the folding again."
Si Xi: "is it..."
Chu Yuan looked at him with a smile: "I know, will come back to sleep earlier."
Four Xi even said yes, and helped him to the imperial study.
Chuyuan's mood was much better than that of yesterday, even with a smile on his face.
Four Xi father-in-law beside Tut, it seems that there must be southwest king.
A half an hour later, Chu Yuan put down the wolf hair in his hand, and Si Xi father-in-law hurriedly said, "the emperor wants to go back to his bedroom?"
Chu Yuan pressed his stomach and said, "pass on some food."
Four Xi father-in-law at first heard that some did not respond to come over, and then quickly asked: "what does the emperor want to use?"
"Everything's fine, the sooner the better." Chu Yuan chin against the Dragon case, "starved to death." Although I bought a lot of stewed beef with oil cake in the inn, I didn't eat much at all. When I first returned to the palace, I didn't feel it. After reading a few books, I felt that my stomach was cooing and I had to stick my chest to my back.
Four Xi father-in-law trotted down to order, and soon there was a waiter brought a food box, opened is Chuyuan previously often eat porridge dishes, as well as a sweet soup and tea snacks.
"Please use it slowly." Si Xi made dishes and chopsticks for him.
"Do you have meat?" Chu Yuan asked
Si Xi: "is it..."
Ah?
The cook in the imperial dining room caught fire. The chops were chopped to the sky. The broth was gurgling and smelling. The eunuchs around him were swallowing. The hot dishes were rushed to the imperial study. The imperial chef was in a panic. He said that he was in a hurry. He didn't have time to cook the dishes. Please forgive the emperor.
Chuyuan took a bite of the fish maw and said, "it's very good. I appreciate it."
The imperial chef was happy and smiling, and after thanking him, he followed the waiter out of the imperial study.
Four Xi is waiting by, watching Chu Yuan eat fish and meat, chew seven or eight spareribs, but do not stop chopsticks, said to eat braised deer feet. So he was puzzled that the king of the southwest took people out and did not give them food to eat, but to the emperor who was hungry.
……
This evening, Chu Yuan had his best meal by himself.
In the dye moon building, Gu Yunchuan is playing the piano by the railing. Duan Baiyue leans against the column and says, "look at elder brother Gu's skill. You can hang out a sign to receive guests after a while."
Gu Yunchuan's men broke a string.
Duan Baiyue sits opposite him.
Gu Yunchuan doubted and looked at his waist: "where's the king's cloud splitting sword?"
"To Yao'er." Duan Baiyue poured a cup of wine himself.
Give it to Yao'er, but why hang such a piece of broken iron in your waist? Gu Yunchuan couldn't help asking, "can you make this Sword, take a look at it next? "
Duan Baiyue said neatly: "No
Gu Yunchuan:
"What can I do for you?" Asked Duan Baiyue.
"It has something to do with tianchajiao." Gu Yunchuan replied.
Duan Baiyue gives a meal and looks up at him.
"I'm going back to Menglan island to visit my old friends. When I come back, I pass by the southwest." Gu Yunchuan said, "after Lanji's death, tianchajiao is like a loose sand. The rest of the disciples have already packed up their burdens and searched for their own ways. The four Dharma protectors in the sect did not want to stay. After taking their property, they set fire to tianchajiao palace. I thought this was the end of the matter, but I didn't expect that the four Dharma protectors were all killed a few days ago. "
"By whom?" Asked Duan Baiyue.
Gu Yunchuan said, "Lanji."
Duan Baiyue's eyebrows suddenly wrinkled.
"Or Lanji's ghost." Gu Yunchuan said, "the other three people were all killed by one move. Their chest was black, and their flesh turned out. They looked like the white bone claws that Lanji practiced in daily life. After the news came out, the people in the lake knew that it was not good, so they wanted to save the fourth Dharma protector first. However, it was a little late. She only had time to listen to her last words, saying that it was Lanji who claimed her life.
Duan Baiyue said: "she was seriously injured and fell off the cliff on that day, and she still has life to live?"
"That's why. Maybe it's a ghost." Gu Yunchuan raised his eyebrows. "All the sects in the southwest are investigating. I heard that even Sun Moon villa will send someone to go. I didn't join in the fun. I'll come back to tell you about it first."Duan Baiyue nodded: "thank you very much."
"If she didn't provoke the southwest government, the LORD would not interfere in this matter." Gu Yunchuan said, "I also asked this time. Although Menglan island is located in the South China Sea, few people have heard of Tianchen sand. It is still possible to find it. How poisonous is the golden silkworm thread? Don't be careless. "
Duan Baiyue smiles: "now I'm like a sick seedling. When everyone comes to a new place, they should think about asking me a medicine."
"There are few such interesting friends as Wang Ye. It's better to live a few more years." Gu Yunchuan filled him with wine. "If it's OK tonight, I'll stay in the bar in the dye moon building. It's not as good as the wine made by the Lord himself, but it's been cellared for more than ten years."
Duan Baiyue nodded: "good."
Gu Yunchuan touched a cup with him: "get married early."
Duan Baiyue said:
"Cough." Gu Yunchuan said, "to be honest, when I passed through the southwest mansion, aunt Jin took me for a long time, saying that she was looking forward to the Lord's marrying his daughter-in-law, yanxianghuo, and her eyes were blind with tears."
Duan Baiyue said:
In the inn, Duan Yao was so sleepy that she still refused to go to sleep. She wanted to hear the story of her brother as a love saint.
The watchman was beating gongs in the street, and nanmoxie slapped his hands.
This battle didn't come back, so it was left.
In the end, I didn't insult the school.
In the early morning of the next day, Duan Baiyue returned to his residence and saw nanmoxie and Duan Yao lying on the table, sleeping soundly.
……
"Brother." Hearing the noise, Duan Yao got up in a daze.
"Why sleep here?" Duan Baiyue frowned.
"After talking too long, I fell asleep unconsciously." Duan Yao yawned hard.
"What are you talking about again?" Duan Baiyue sits at the table.
Duan Yao and Nanmo said in the same voice: "talk about your future marriage, how grand the show will be." After all, it was the emperor.
Duan Baiyue put a spoon into his brother's mouth.
Duan Yao said, "it fell to the ground last night."
"Nonsense." Duan Baiyue stood up and said, "go back to sleep."
Nanmoxie asked expectantly, "would you like to cook a red egg?"
Duan Yao blushed and was ready to inform the waiter excitedly.
Duan Baiyue sat by the bed: "I was in the dye moon building last night."
"Dye moon building is good. It has all kinds of things." Namoshi patted her thigh.
Duan Yao covered his ears consciously. He didn't know what the object was. He had never peeped at the script, but he was pure.
Duan Baiyue said: "with elder brother Gu."
Duan Yao was disappointed and said, "ah?"
Nanmoxie's smile froze on his face.
Duan Baiyue is too lazy to say much, and pulls out the broken iron in his waist and drives them out.
Duan Yao squatted in the corridor, her hands holding her cheek, and sighed with her master.
"Alas
After a few days, Chu Yuan drove out of the palace and went east to the North Palace of Yunde city.
As a result of observing the people's feelings along the way, I naturally won't be in a hurry. I'll stop and go along the way until I get to the next city three days later. The carriage stopped at the post house. Chu Yuan pushed open his door and saw a large bunch of flowers on the table. He didn't know where he got it.
Duan Baiyue leans on the roof beam and looks at him laughing.
"Come down." Chu Yuan reached out.
Duan Baiyue turned over and jumped to the ground: "why so late, I have been wandering in the city for a day."
"It was hot on the road, so we had a rest for a while." Chu Yuan wiped his sweat with his sleeve. "The room is also hot. The ice will be sent later. You don't know how to wait outside."
Duan Baiyue chuckled: "previously, it was really on the tree. As a result, a group of little baby monkeys came to climb the tree, which was almost found."
"King of southwest, hiding a group of small dolls." Chu Yuan patted him on the chest, "disgraceful."
Duan Baiyue held his hand and was about to get close to his relatives. However, there was humanity outside the room: "the emperor."
Chu Yuan immediately pushed him away.
Duan Baiyue asked, "can I go out and beat him?"
Chu Yuan said, "No
It can't be beaten. The southwest King squatted on the beam and watched Tao Rende enter the house.
In my last life, I should owe the old man a lot of things.
"I'm tired all the way. Master Tai Fu never stops." Chu Yuan said, "what can I do for you?"
"Back to the emperor, yes." Tao Rende said, "there is a Yuelao temple near the post house -"
"Lord Taifu." Chu Yuan was not pleased to interrupt him.
"The emperor listened to the old minister finish." Tao Rende sped up his speech and said, "this Yuelao temple is very effective, and the day after tomorrow happens to be the Qiqiao Festival. Therefore, there are many brocade handkerchiefs hanging in front of the marriage tree, all of which are the daughter's home in the maiden waiting for words."
"four happiness!" Chu Yuan said in a loud voice.
"The emperor." Four Xi father-in-law trotted in.
"Send the Lord Tai Fu back." Chu Yuan ordered.What else does Tao Rende want to say, but Chu Yuan has already entered the inner room.
"Master Tai Fu, let's go." Four Xi father-in-law whispered in his ear, "don't make the emperor unhappy, something will be discussed later."
Tao Rende sighs in his heart and retreats after thanking him.
Liu Dajiong is watching a good play under the tree.
I knew it would be kicked out.
He also said that his eyelids jump, there is a good thing.
What a fart.
"You see, you won't let me beat him." Duan Baiyue squats in front of him.
Chu Yuan sat on the edge of the bed, looking at him did not know whether to be angry or to laugh.
Duan Baiyue asked, "Yuelao temple, do you want to go? I'll take you. "
"No Chu Yuan pulled back his hand.
Duan Baiyue got up and sat down next to him: "it's all very effective. We'll sneak in and have a look and come back."
"So fond of watching?" Chu Yuan grabbed his ear.
"Maybe you can really get married." Duan Baiyue held the man in his arms, "at least a red line, eh?"
Chu Yuan chin against his shoulder, lazy way: "well."
