After the black cat incident last night, Li Jinyu felt that the crape myrtle imperial aura was the safest thing in the world, and he wished that all twelve hours a day would be bathed in the crape myrtle imperial aura.
As soon as the words came out, Huo Caiyu took a step back, and his face became a little strange: "Your Majesty, I am not a member of the harem, I still have official duties..."
After Li Jinyu blurted out, he was already intimidated.
"Serving the bedroom" is a term aimed at concubines in the harem, so he naturally knows it.
If Huo Caiyu is angry and humiliated because of this, he can completely understand.It would be fine if he used to spend a lot of hatred on weekdays, but now he really wants Huo Caiyu to stay with him.
So Li Jinyu lowered his voice again, looked at Huo Caiyu eagerly, clasped his hands unconsciously on his chest, and made a begging gesture that used to be a hamster: "It's boring to sleep alone, can you stay with me? "
……
Under Li Jinyu's stalking, Huo Caiyu still stayed.
Changkang delivered the toiletries without any surprise, and before leaving, he thoughtfully helped to blow out the candles.
Li Jinyu soon fell asleep peacefully.
On the contrary, Huo Caiyu was lying on the dragon bed with his eyes open, and his heart was extremely complicated.
Tong Shiguan came once, but was directly driven away by His Majesty.
According to the principle, Tong Shiguan should carefully record the records of the emperor's bedtime, including the candidates, time, and even calling for water several times at night.
However, the Tong historian obediently left.
The historian Xu Shitong felt that the two men would not conceive an imperial heir, so he didn't care.
Since His Majesty wants him to rectify the internal affairs, such incompetent historians should be replaced.
——This was a decision that Huo Caiyu regretted a long time later.
Huo Caiyu was completely stunned when he heard His Majesty said that he wanted him to stay in bed, and rationally told him not to be surprised, hadn't he already guessed His Majesty's purpose of keeping him at first?The maids and servants chatting behind their backs also regarded him as the emperor's male favourite, such as Concubine Xian, who directly wrote contempt on their faces.
He had been humiliated and resented before, and he secretly made up his mind that if Emperor Dog really had such dirty thoughts, he would have to pay the price even if he risked his life!
Now that His Majesty said the word "servant bed", Huo Caiyu suddenly found that he had no anger as he imagined at the beginning, only a trace of unspeakable panic, as if something that he deliberately covered up was about to be covered by His Majesty's words The words are picked apart.
He thought last night that he would sleep on the dragon bed with His Majesty one day, which was probably the only wonderful experience in his life; he did not expect to experience it for the second time today.
Unlike last night, His Majesty didn't wrap himself around him this time, and slept peacefully beside him, curled up into a dumpling like before, with his head on Huo Caiyu's shoulder.
——This is really a simple "serving bed".
Huo Caiyu turned his head slightly, and he could see Li Jinyu's furry head.
This made him couldn't help but recall the scene last night when His Majesty was naked and his long black hair was hanging down.
Obviously a whole day has passed, but the feeling of His Majesty who was infinitely dependent at that time still lingers.
Huo Caiyu vaguely felt that if he continued to think wildly, it might be bad, so he tried his best to restrain his thoughts, trying to let himself fall asleep.
I thought it was difficult to fall asleep this time like last night, but when I heard Li Jinyu's even and gentle breathing, Huo Caiyu gradually became sleepy.
I had a long-lost dream.
In the dream, he experienced something that he had never imagined in reality, which made people blush.In a trance, His Majesty's handsome face floated up and down in the dream, making him gradually addicted.
……
When he woke up the next day, Li Jinyu greeted Huo Caiyu as usual, and found that Huo Caiyu's attitude seemed a little strange.
His gaze was very dodgy, and he didn't face him head-on. After getting up, he ran away immediately with the excuse of dealing with government affairs.
In the next few days, there was no sign of anyone at all.
Li Jinyu wanted to rub Ziwei's imperial spirit again at night, but was told by the palace people of Jiaolan Palace that Huo Caiyu was staying in the concierge of the Hall of Supreme Harmony to handle documents.
Li Jinyu had no choice but to simply sleep on Huo Caiyu's bed, feeling infinitely wronged.
——Could it be that he sleeps too badly?
I don't know if Huo Caiyu's quilt and pillow stained with Ziwei Emperor Qi can help him drive away those dirty things.
However, although Huo Caiyu didn't show up, the matter was handled very quickly.
In just a few days, Li Jinyu heard Chang Kang report several times on Huo Caiyu's progress in rectifying the palace's internal affairs.
With Li Jinyu's will, Huo Caiyu directly brought the guards into the Supervisor of Ceremonies, sorted all the eunuchs into the team according to the roster, and then checked the account books of the Supervisor of Ceremonies one by one. Duties were broken up and reassigned.
The concubines who dared to reach out to the emperor's servants were also punished one by one.
Among them, the most blatant concubine Xian, Li Jinyu personally punished her according to the evidence presented by Huo Caiyu, and directly demoted her status by one level.
There are also several departments such as the Wine and Noodle Bureau and the Quyi Bureau that Emperor Jingchang established purely for pleasure. After consulting Li Jinyu, they were all cut down and merged into the Wine Vinegar Noodle Bureau and the Siyuan Bureau. The extra manpower was used to fill the vacancies that fell out. .
Afterwards, Huo Caiyu took out the palace rules formulated by the Supervisor of Ceremonies, but were completely ignored later, and strictly followed the palace rules with clear rewards and punishments.
Although the process encountered a lot of resistance, Li Jinyu tried his best to support Huo Caiyu, and the inner courtyard of the palace was finally cleared.
The smoky imperial palace, where Emperor Jingchang indulged in pleasure and indulged in stupidity and tyranny, finally regained order.
Huo Caiyu wiped out the eyeliners of the various palaces one by one, and Li Jinyu finally didn't have to worry about the palace concubine knowing ahead of the person doing things after the order.
Li Jinyu watched Huo Caiyu devote himself to the rectification of the palace, marveled that Huo Caiyu really cared about his future family, and wondered if he should take this opportunity to give Huo Caiyu another reward.
Although he hasn't seen Huo Caiyu for many days.
After Li Jinyu came to this world, what he cared most about was Huo Caiyu. Every day before, he thought about how to deal with Huo Caiyu and how to avoid being impacted by Huo Caiyu's purple myrtle imperial aura.
He was really not used to not seeing him for a long time.
The palace was almost rectified, and Huo Caiyu finally showed up. Before Li Jinyu could praise him, Huo Caiyu lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, please allow me to go to Qingshui County."
To Qingshui County?
Li Jinyu asked in a daze, "Why?"
"A few days ago, I read the documents of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households regarding the implementation of the new policies in Qingshui County. The implementation of the new policies in Qingshui County may not be satisfactory." Huo Caiyu slightly lowered his head, "I want to go and see for myself."
Before, he vaguely felt that the new tax arrangement of Qingshui County by the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households was not right, but he just couldn't figure it out; when cleaning up the internal affairs of the palace these few days, he was vaguely aware of the personnel arrangements in the palace and the inside story of bribery. perceived something.
It is impossible for the prime minister to make their New Deal go smoothly, and it is certain to obstruct it.
Li Jinyu had also thought about what the prime minister would do before, but out of trust in Huo Caiyu, he never asked. He only knew that the prime minister had been keeping a low profile during this time.
Now it sounds like Ye Guixiang is planning to directly mess with the bottom layer?
If Huo Caiyu goes out in person, no matter what crooked ways Ye Guixiang goes, he will not be able to resist Huo Caiyu's halo as the protagonist; if the New Deal can be implemented smoothly, Huo Caiyu will be able to take power further.
but……
Li Jinyu looked at Huo Caiyu with a hint of reluctance in his eyes.
—— Huo Caiyu is gone, what can he do?
Leaving aside the question of whether to leave the plot or not, what should we do if we meet that weird black cat without Huo Caiyu's suppression of Ziwei Emperor Qi?
"Do you have to go?"
Seeing the undisguised nostalgia in His Majesty's eyes, Huo Caiyu's heart trembled slightly, and he quickly lowered his head, with an unrecognizable voice: "For the sake of the New Deal, it is necessary for the minister to go there in person."
Li Jinyu stood up, walked around in place, struggled for a while, and finally made up his mind: "I'm sure, but I'm going too."
After thinking about it, staying with Huo Caiyu should be much safer than staying in the palace!
The only problem is that he is worried that Tiandao's father is still restraining him and not letting him leave...
Li Jinyu scratched his ears, and prayed silently in his heart: Dad Tiandao, I am here to supervise your son to go through the plot safely, and I definitely don't want to run away. You must support me!
I don't know whether Tiandao's father supports it or not, but Tiandao's own son definitely does not support it.
Huo Caiyu immediately objected after being stunned: "No, Your Majesty!"
"Why not?"
"Your Majesty, as the king of a country, should sit in the palace and take care of the government affairs. How can you leave the palace rashly?"
Li Jinyu looked at him with some surprise: "How can I have government affairs to take care of?"
Most of them are in the hands of the prime minister, and the ones that are not in the hands of the prime minister are also thrown to Huo Caiyu.
Huo Caiyu remained silent for a while, and then insisted: "The world outside the palace is unstable, and people's hearts are treacherous. It is safer for Your Majesty to stay in the palace."
The people complained a lot about the tyrant and traitor, and he was like this in the past.
If His Majesty left the palace rashly, maybe there would be that extreme person who would risk his life to assassinate him!
Li Jinyu didn't know Huo Caiyu's concerns, he only thought that he didn't want to take him with him—maybe Huo Caiyu had been secretly bored with him for a long time, that's why he avoided seeing him for such a long time.
But it was his purpose to make Huo Caiyu bored with him!
What's more, if you leave the palace, you might find an opportunity to sneak away...
No matter how bad it is, if you encounter an assassin or something to "remove harm for the people", and then add a yellow robe to Huo Caiyu, wouldn't this plot just end!
Li Jinyu was determined to leave the palace.
"This is my order!"
"Also ask Your Majesty to take your life back."
It was the first time that Huo Caiyu refused to comply with such straightforward resistance. After Li Jinyu's initial shock, he felt joy in his heart: This is the right move!Huo Caiyu has begun to resist the decree, isn't this a usurpation of the throne!
He's getting more excited.
But Huo Caiyu refused to let go, and even Chang Kang persuaded him tactfully: "Your Majesty, there is chaos outside the palace, how can there be comfort in the palace? The slaves know that His Majesty is reluctant to part with Mr. Huo, but His Majesty's safety is the most important thing."
Li Jinyu didn't pay any attention to it, thinking about how to get Huo Caiyu to agree.
Recalling what he saw and heard when he was a hamster in modern society, Li Jinyu announced his decision to Huo Caiyu: "If Huo Aiqing refuses to take me with me, I won't eat."
He wants to go on a hunger strike!
……
Huo Caiyu never expected that His Majesty would be so childish and make fun of his body.
At first, I was a little flustered in my heart, but he was soon suppressed by him, and he forced himself to calm down: "I still stick to my position."
Li Jinyu did not eat anything for lunch and dinner that day.
Still the next day.
Although Huo Caiyu avoided Li Jinyu, he still couldn't help asking the palace staff about His Majesty's situation.
Knowing that His Majesty hadn't eaten for two days, Huo Caiyu couldn't sit still more and more.
He deliberately went to the imperial dining room to inquire about it, and found that His Majesty really hadn't passed on the meals in the past two days—the account of the imperial dining room was also rearranged during the cleaning of the palace, and it was clear at a glance whether the specific ingredients were used.
"Your Majesty has not left the palace for a long time today, and even announced an audience with the imperial physician..."
Huo Caiyu put down the account book in his hand, pursed his lips, and went to the bedroom to ask to see him.
As soon as he entered the palace, he saw Li Jinyu lying on the dragon couch, his right hand covering his cheek and sighing, while the old doctor was packing his things.
Huo Caiyu frowned slightly, walked over and asked, "How is Your Majesty?"
The old imperial doctor coughed: "Your Majesty is fine, just take some medicine to reduce the fire, and then tell the imperial dining room to have a richer meal."
Huo Caiyu sat down with a slightly solemn face, and reached out to feel Li Jinyu's pulse.
Li Jinyu wanted to hide, but Huo Caiyu's martial arts practice was more sensitive than him, and he was concerned, so he grabbed his wrist.
After feeling his pulse for a while, Huo Caiyu's face changed slightly, and his eyes focused on Li Jinyu's face.
Li Jinyu gave a dry laugh with some guilt, and shrank back into the dragon couch.
Huo Caiyu let go of Li Jinyu's hand, and the worry on his face before was replaced by an expression of anger or laughter: "Why does your majesty play tricks like this with my minister?"
This rising pulse is obviously caused by eating too much hot food recently.
Thinking about it again, His Majesty loved to eat dried fruit snacks like peanuts and melon seeds...
There is indeed no Chuanshan in the imperial dining room, but the understanding of "meal" there has always been serious dishes, snacks are not included!
His majesty has eaten so many dried fruits these two days that he got angry like this!
Seeing that Huo Caiyu had seen through it, Li Jinyu coughed in embarrassment: "I am indeed on a hunger strike! I just eat some melon seeds to pass the time!"
He really wanted to go on a hunger strike at the beginning - he is not a pure human being, he has spiritual reserves in his body, so he will be fine if he starves for a while.
But after two days of running on the big hamster roller, Li Jinyu still felt that something was wrong.
My teeth feel itchy, I really want to grind something...
After touching his teeth, he realized that his teeth had grown a lot longer than before.
Li Jinyu knows that humans will not grow teeth at this age, only their rodent teeth will grow forever, and they must be sharpened frequently.
Alas, this characteristic has been inherited...
Due to the image of a tyrant, Li Jinyu had to give up the jujube furniture that looked good to eat, and reluctantly asked Chang Kang to send some walnut and melon seeds with shells.
It was originally for grinding teeth, but since the walnut kernels have been gnawed out, you must eat them, right?
Going back and forth like this, just...
Li Jinyu clutched his swollen cheeks, wanting to cry without tears.
He is really determined to go on a hunger strike!
As a result, he now looks like a child who can't speak!
Huo Caiyu's eyes seemed to despise him, woo...
Getting angry and having a toothache is by no means a comfortable thing. The imperial physician prepared medicine for Li Jinyu, and Li Jinyu could only drink it obediently.
The taste of the medicine this time is not bad, not as bad as last time. Li Jinyu drank it in one gulp, and just about to announce that his hunger strike plan is not over, when Huo Caiyu said flatly: "For the taste of your majesty's medicine, I asked the imperial dining room to It is useless for His Majesty to go on a hunger strike if you mix it in a soup that does not affect the efficacy of the medicine."
Li Jinyu was stunned for a moment.
Either do not take medicine, or do not go on a hunger strike?
He clutched his sore teeth, tears streaming down his face.
"The minister has to retire first."
Watching Huo Caiyu's leaving back, Li Jinyu felt completely humiliated by the original owner on the dragon couch.
Is there a more stupid "tyrant" than him in the world? !
Chang Kang cautiously leaned over and asked, "Your Majesty, today's imperial meal..."
Do you still pass it on?
Li Jinyu sat up, with a look of grief and indignation: "Pass!"
What's the use of going on a hunger strike now!Just drink the medicine and you won't starve to death!
……
The hunger strike failed, and before Li Jinyu could figure out how to persuade Huo Caiyu, he received a note from Huo Caiyu.
The content of the booklet is an approximate report.
Qingshui County is not too far from the capital, but it still takes some time to go back and forth.Now that the spring tax has started to be collected, Huo Caiyu plans to go to Qingshui County as soon as possible to supervise the tax collection and investigate the prime minister's actions.
"Leave tomorrow?"
Li Jinyu put down the booklet, gritted his teeth and walked around the bedroom, wishing he could stick to Huo Caiyu.
After walking around the room for a long time, his eyes lit up and he had a good idea.
In the next few days, Li Jinyu no longer bothered to go out with Huo Caiyu, but enthusiastically cared about the travel preparations for Huo Caiyu.
The carriage must be big and stable!
More dry food is better!
The bedding should be soft and soft!
Also bring melon seeds, peanuts, walnuts, pine nuts...
Under Huo Caiyu's surprised and suspicious eyes, Li Jinyu spoke earnestly: "I can't go out of the palace, so I use these beloved things to accompany Huo Aiqing, just like I accompany myself in person."
As soon as these words came out, Huo Caiyu really didn't say a word.
Before leaving, Huo Caiyu came to bid farewell to His Majesty.
Li Jinyu was dressed extremely solemnly. The large black-bottomed gilt cloud-patterned imperial robe and the imperial crown with shell-decorated hanging sky made his handsome face even more sacred.
It's not that Huo Caiyu has never seen His Majesty wearing a dragon robe before. I don't know if parting is imminent today, and somehow feels that His Majesty's face is so dazzling that he can't take his eyes off it.
The dream of that night could not help reappearing in his mind, Huo Caiyu hurriedly dismissed those disrespectful images, bowed his head and kowtowed: "Your Majesty is well."
Li Jinyu quickly helped him up, patted Huo Caiyu on the shoulder, covered his face and wept: "Huo Aiqing has been loyal to the country, died until she died, and forged ahead. I have nothing to repay, but I am grateful..."
Huo Caiyu: "..."
It seems that His Majesty's class cannot be stopped.
To his relief, His Majesty didn't seem to insist on leaving the palace with him today.It seems that these few days finally figured it out.
After thinking about it for a while, after returning from Qingshui County, he will arrange a course for His Majesty to improve his literary literacy. Huo Caiyu and Li Jinyu greeted each other with a few words of courtesy before bowing and leaving.
Li Jinyu did not hold back, but held Huo Caiyu's hand and said earnestly: "Huo Aiqing will return safely!"
Huo Caiyu lowered his gaze and landed on His Majesty's hands, trembling trembled from His Majesty's tightly clenched hands, trembling all the way to his heart.
Huo Caiyu inexplicably felt a bit of sourness mixed with fear and expectation, calmly withdrew his hand, bowed his head and said: "The minister leads the order."
After leaving the palace gate for a while, Huo Caiyu couldn't help but look back, seeing his majesty still standing at the palace gate looking at him from afar, he couldn't help feeling that inexplicable feeling in his heart again.
Li Jinyu stood outside the palace gate enthusiastically, waiting for the convoy to disappear, then put away the expression on his face, turned his head and said to Chang Kang, "Go back to the palace."
After returning to the bedroom, Li Jinyu ordered Chang Kang to prepare some dried fruits.
Chang Kang persuaded: "Your Majesty, the imperial physician and Mr. Huo also told you not to eat too much..."
Li Jinyu ignored him, and said again: "Go and call another concubine."
Changkang: "???"
"Be obedient..." Li Jinyu thought about the concubines he had come into contact with, and called out their names, "Just call Weibi."
Changkang: "..."
Since ancient times, the king's heart is unpredictable, and the king's kindness is as thin as paper, he finally saw it.
Less than a quarter of an hour ago, His Majesty and Mr. Huo were still inseparable; Mr. Huo had just left, and His Majesty immediately ordered the concubine?
A while ago, I watched His Majesty demote even the favored Concubine Xian for the sake of Mr. Huo. Unexpectedly, Mr. Huo was only a temporary favorite...
Chang Kang was full of emotion, but he didn't dare to show it in front of His Majesty, he just lowered his head to announce the decree.
Not long after, Wei Concubine came to receive the order tremblingly: "Concubine sees Your Majesty."
Concubine Wei is considered an older person in the harem, and has clearly witnessed most of Emperor Jingchang's atrocities. She has barely managed to settle down with her low-key and unremarkable appearance. She is full of fear for His Majesty and Concubine Xian. Safety.
Even though His Majesty's temper seems to be much better now, the shadow in Wei Bin's heart cannot be erased.
"Your Majesty summoned concubines, what orders do you have?"
Li Jinyu coughed: "It's nothing, I just miss you."
He turned his head and glanced at Changkang, Changkang understood, bowed his head out knowingly, and closed the door by the way.
Standing outside the door, Chang Kang looked up at the sky, and silently sighed for Mr. Huo: In ancient times, there were no flowers in the harem, let alone Mr. Huo, a man?
No matter how much His Majesty favors Mr. Huo, he still treats Mr. Huo as a plaything!
Mr. Huo was able to clean up the smog in the harem at a young age. Changkang and other honest palace people really admire him from the bottom of his heart.
I only hope that after His Majesty gets tired of Mr. Huo, he would still give Mr. Huo a good arrangement for the sake of the past favor.
……
Li Jinyu and Concubine Wei stayed in the dormitory until the evening before going out, and all the meals during the period were brought in directly.
At the beginning, Changkang didn't feel anything unusual, but after the dinner, he realized that he hadn't seen His Majesty all day, and when he sent the imperial meal in, he only heard the orders from Concubine Wei. There were two people lying down, but they couldn't see who they were.
Thinking of His Majesty arguing that he must go out with Mr. Huo a few days ago...
Chang Kang was startled, walked up to the dragon couch, and asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, Empress Wei, do you want Lan Tang to take a bath?"
The figure under the bed veil moved slightly, and a hand suddenly pulled away the veil, revealing Wei Concubine's calm face: "No need."
Chang Kang looked at the fully dressed Wei Concubine in surprise, and focused his eyes on the dragon couch—the gold-embroidered silk quilt was slightly raised, and it looked like a human figure through the gauze. Now it seems...
Chang Kang stepped forward and lifted it up carefully. Under the silk quilt, it turned out to be a white porcelain glazed Longhua pillow. His Majesty who should have been lying here has disappeared without a trace.
"His Majesty?!"
……
At this time Li Jinyu was lying on the bottom of Huo Caiyu's carriage.
The extremely difficult posture of ordinary human beings is easy for Li Jinyu, a soft and flexible hamster spirit.
Just now at the gate of the palace, he verified an answer that made him extremely satisfied - follow Huo Caiyu, and Father Tiandao will not forcibly restrain him.
It's not that he hasn't tried to walk outside the palace before, but when he almost reaches the gate of the palace, the feeling of restraint that follows him will appear, stipulating that his range of activities must be within the palace.
The palace is like a giant hamster cage.
But this time he personally sent Huo Caiyu out of the palace, and he didn't feel any sense of restraint along the way.
The biggest obstacle preventing him from leaving the palace had disappeared, and Li Jinyu carried out his plan without hesitation.
Call the most honest and prudent Wei Concubine over, coerce and lure her to cover him, and then sneak out through the side door—although he is weak in mana, he can still do it by taking off the dragon robe and using a blindfold.
As soon as he left the palace, the free air was very sweet. Li Jinyu originally wanted to go straight to the mountains and find a forest to live a dreamy life of gnawing on pine cones without being disturbed by anyone; The ropes are tied generally tight.
Li Jinyu: "... Father Tiandao, I was wrong."
Woohoo, I still have to find Huo Caiyu!
Huo Caiyu's carriage is not slow, but the athletic ability of a mature hamster is not comparable to that of a horse.
Guided by the distinct Ziwei emperor spirit, Li Jinyu quickly caught up with Huo Caiyu's carriage, and then directly grabbed the carriage shaft and hid under the carriage.
When he personally selected the carriage for Huo Caiyu before, he planned it out. He left a lot of places at the bottom of the carriage to borrow strength. He also specially chose the most stable body and the most stable old horse.
Hooking the bottom of the carriage, Li Jinyu couldn't help yawning in the swaying carriage.
This car shakes too easily to get sleepy...
He pulled out two python pattern belts from his sleeves, tied himself slightly to the hooks on the bottom of the car, and then closed his eyes in peace.
— Forget it, sleep for a while.
……
Li Jinyu woke up again, he was woken up by shaking.
When he opened his eyes, he saw Huo Caiyu's dark face.
Still dizzy, Li Jinyu was still in the palace, yawned and asked in a daze, "Huo Aiqing got up so early?"
Behind Huo Caiyu was a night of stars, his face was tense, and he almost gritted his teeth and asked, "It's getting late, Your Majesty."
Li Jinyu sat up and rubbed his eyes, only to realize that it was already night.
"Your Majesty, let Rong Chen ask, why is Your Majesty here?"
Huo Caiyu couldn't help but want to "offend".
When he stopped the car and was about to go to bed, he heard a "plop" and thought that some luggage had been dropped, but when he got out of the car, he saw his majesty lying under the car!
God knows that at that moment he was so frightened that he almost lost his wits!
How fast is the carriage running, and how fast are the wheels?
If something unexpected happened, His Majesty might directly...
While Huo Caiyu blamed himself for not checking the carriage properly, he quickly carried His Majesty into the carriage.
After checking Li Jinyu's body for a while, he found that Li Jinyu's skin was not scratched except for some dust on his body, and he checked his pulse to confirm that there was no internal injury. Huo Caiyu then heaved a sigh of relief and shook Li Jinyu awake.
Li Jinyu regained consciousness and went back rationally, he said "at a loss": "Isn't I drinking and having fun with Concubine Wei, why did I come here?"
Hearing the name of a concubine from Li Jinyu made Huo Caiyu feel even worse.
With a tense face, he turned his head to pull the rein: "I send Your Majesty back to the palace."
"Wait!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Jinyu yelled, threw himself on Huo Caiyu, and hugged his waist to prevent him from turning his horse's head.
Huo Caiyu was hugged tightly by Li Jinyu, and when he lowered his head, he could see Li Jinyu's bright eyes, his breath was uneven for a while, and when he loosened his strength, Li Jinyu snatched the reins away.
Li Jinyu tightly hugged Huo Caiyu's waist, rubbing his chin against Huo Caiyu's chest: "I don't want to go back, I don't want to go back!"
Huo Caiyu's voice was a little difficult and obscure: "Your Majesty, you get up first."
"No! Unless you promise me!"
"Get up first!"
"Promise first!"
Huo Caiyu watched His Majesty rubbing against him, his face getting closer and closer, and he couldn't help breathing faster.
He finally couldn't bear it anymore, gritted his teeth and replied: "I agree, Your Majesty will come down first."
Finally, when Huo Caiyu let go, Li Jinyu was happy, let go of his hands and stood up, holding the rein behind his back, watching Huo Caiyu sit up with vigilance: "Huo Aiqing, you must keep your word."
The future emperor, no joke!
Huo Caiyu glanced at him wordlessly.
When His Majesty hugged him just now, he was extremely nervous and his heart beat faster; when His Majesty stopped hugging him, he felt empty again.
——What's wrong with me?
Huo Caiyu couldn't help but spurned herself in her heart, straightened her clothes, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "I know."
Seeing that Huo Caiyu seemed to be planning to cooperate, Li Jinyu felt relieved and sat down again with satisfaction.
"How did Your Majesty climb under the car?" Huo Caiyu still couldn't help but persuade, "It's too risky, Your Majesty must never do it in the future..."
"I know, so stop talking about it." Li Jinyu raised his hand and muttered to himself: Why is the future emperor so talkative? What about the aura of dominance that he promised?
Huo Caiyu looked at His Majesty's indifferent look, and couldn't help but want to sigh again.
Obviously he is about the same age as His Majesty, but he has known His Majesty for less than a month, but he often feels that he has to grow up quickly.
"Your Majesty is going to Qingshui County, and the route must be arranged by the minister."
Li Jinyu is very satisfied as long as he can stay by Huo Caiyu's side, so he doesn't care: "No problem."
Huo Caiyu gave a few more instructions, but Li Jinyu had no objection at all, and finally asked impatiently: "I've got it all done—can I have dinner?"
"...Your Majesty, wait a moment, I'm going to warm up the dry food."
"No need." Li Jinyu took out the dried fruit and snacks he had prepared from the cabinet of the carriage familiarly, and said enthusiastically, "I can eat this."
Huo Caiyu pursed his lips, seeing Li Jinyu eating happily, felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
He genuinely thought that His Majesty's words of "accompany Aiqing with these things I love" were true, and he was moved by this for a long time.
Unexpectedly, His Majesty prepared it for himself.
Huo Caiyu's original plan was to go to the county government of Qingshui County to supervise the implementation of the new tax law, and then go down to the towns and villages to check if necessary.With Li Jinyu now, he couldn't delay like this.
Now that the world is chaotic, he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, but most of his skills are in the immediate skill of killing the enemy in battle, not so outstanding in the off-horse skill, I'm afraid he can't protect His Majesty well.
Subconsciously, Huo Caiyu has included Li Jinyu in the ranks he wants to protect.
Huo Caiyu planned to notify the sheriff immediately when he arrived in Qingshui County to protect His Majesty, and then he went to various towns and villages to check the implementation of the new tax law.
Judging from the government affairs I have come into contact with these days, it seems that the Prime Minister's faction only wants to authorize power and does not plan to rebel. They want a vase emperor more than themselves.
Since His Majesty disappeared, the Prime Minister should be even more panicked.
After thinking like this, Huo Caiyu made a new plan, looked up at His Majesty who was eating melon seeds, sighed slightly in his heart, turned his head and got out of the car to light the bonfire.
Generally speaking, there are special post stations and convoys for officials to travel, and they are greeted and entertained wherever they go; not only are the travellers having fun, but the entertainers are also very welcome—this means that they can use the name of entertaining the peak Then draw a sum of money from the official bank.
As for the shortfall in it, it is natural to vigorously extract it from the people.
Huo Caiyu knew this, so he didn't inform the post stations and magistrates along the way, and went on the road by himself, feeling more comfortable eating the wind and drinking the dew.
Therefore, he deliberately avoided the official road and took a more direct and remote path to Qingshui County.
It takes only two or three days for one person to go fast.
It's just that it can't be like this now with His Majesty.
Huo Caiyu lit a bonfire, put the dry food on the fire and roasted it until soft, tearing off small pieces and chewing, while thinking about where the nearest station is.
Li Jinyu ate a few pieces of exquisite snacks, and ate a handful of melon seeds. When he turned around and saw Huo Caiyu eating dry food in front of the campfire, he felt a little embarrassed.
——This counterfeit and shoddy product is eating snacks carefully prepared by the imperial chef, while the serious future master of the world is eating dry food...
He clapped his hands, walked over with the food box, and handed over a piece of pear flower jujube cake: "Eat this."
Huo Caiyu woke up from his contemplation, moved his mouth, and when he wanted to refuse, Li Jinyu had already pushed the whole piece of pastry to his lips.
Huo Caiyu had no choice but to open his mouth to catch it.
The lips and teeth can feel the sweetness of the pastry, and what is more clear is the inexplicable feeling when His Majesty's fingertips inadvertently touch the lower lip.
Huo Caiyu actually felt that the pastry in his mouth was a bit sweeter than what he ate in the palace.
Did the chef accidentally put too much sugar?
He had fed candied fruit to His Majesty who had a fever with his hands before, and when His Majesty's scorched lips touched his fingers, the feeling he felt was so similar to now.
Huo Caiyu slowly chewed the snack in his mouth, looking up, he could just see His Majesty's bright and flawless smile.
Under the reflection of the night sky like a grand scroll of splashed ink and the bright stars dotted behind her, that smile is purer than moonlight.
Huo Caiyu's heart trembled again.
There is no reason, no motivation, maybe it's just because the night sky is too clear, maybe it's just because the surroundings are too quiet.
He suddenly found that, at some point, his attention was more and more focused on His Majesty himself, rather than His Majesty's wonderful policies.
He vaguely felt that there was a huge, dark, bottomless abyss in front of him, and his body would be crushed if he stepped on it; but on the other side of the abyss, there seemed to be some extremely sweet, clear and mellow Liquan spring that attracted him.
Li Jinyu fed Huo Caiyu a piece of snack, and saw Huo Caiyu sitting there chewing blankly, the dry food in his hand was almost scorched near the fire, he couldn't help being a little strange: "Huo Aiqing?"
Huo Caiyu seemed to be awakened by his sound, took a deep look at him, then lowered his head and continued to eat dry food.
Li Jinyu intuited that there was something more in Huo Caiyu's eyes that he couldn't understand just now, but looking back, it seemed to be just an illusion.
……
At night, Li Jinyu slept on the carriage, covered with soft blankets; Huo Caiyu sat outside by the campfire to watch the night.
Li Jinyu felt very embarrassed at first, and tried his best to invite Huo Caiyu to sleep together in the carriage.
Unexpectedly, Huo Caiyu, who had slept together many times, would simply refuse. Seeing that Li Jinyu wanted to persuade him again, he said directly: "Your Majesty has promised to obey the minister's arrangements outside, right? You are not joking."
Li Jinyu: "..."
All right, the future real emperor doesn't feel sorry for himself, so he doesn't need to force it.
Thinking about being an unpopular little goblin, I can actually enjoy the treatment of the king of a country keeping vigil for me... It will be extraordinarily ostentatious to say it in the future.
On the second day, Li Jinyu was still sleeping in the carriage, so Huo Caiyu drove away.
When Li Jinyu woke up staggeringly, it was almost noon.
Sitting on the shaft of the car, Huo Caiyu noticed that Li Jinyu had woken up. He turned around and said, "Your Majesty is awake? You can use some pastries first, and you won't be able to arrive at the station until evening."
Li Jinyu took a general look at the scenery outside the window, saw that it was still a natural scenery, not like returning to the palace, so he was a little relieved.
Opening the food box, there were only a few pieces of cakes left. Li Jinyu took out a piece and ate it. After estimating the remaining portion, he closed the food box again.
The rest is for Huo Caiyu to eat.
He took out the melon seeds and began to chew on the scenery outside the window.
Huo Caiyu was a little helpless when he heard the sound of "click, click" in the carriage.
As soon as the words came out, Huo Caiyu took a step back, and his face became a little strange: "Your Majesty, I am not a member of the harem, I still have official duties..."
After Li Jinyu blurted out, he was already intimidated.
"Serving the bedroom" is a term aimed at concubines in the harem, so he naturally knows it.
If Huo Caiyu is angry and humiliated because of this, he can completely understand.It would be fine if he used to spend a lot of hatred on weekdays, but now he really wants Huo Caiyu to stay with him.
So Li Jinyu lowered his voice again, looked at Huo Caiyu eagerly, clasped his hands unconsciously on his chest, and made a begging gesture that used to be a hamster: "It's boring to sleep alone, can you stay with me? "
……
Under Li Jinyu's stalking, Huo Caiyu still stayed.
Changkang delivered the toiletries without any surprise, and before leaving, he thoughtfully helped to blow out the candles.
Li Jinyu soon fell asleep peacefully.
On the contrary, Huo Caiyu was lying on the dragon bed with his eyes open, and his heart was extremely complicated.
Tong Shiguan came once, but was directly driven away by His Majesty.
According to the principle, Tong Shiguan should carefully record the records of the emperor's bedtime, including the candidates, time, and even calling for water several times at night.
However, the Tong historian obediently left.
The historian Xu Shitong felt that the two men would not conceive an imperial heir, so he didn't care.
Since His Majesty wants him to rectify the internal affairs, such incompetent historians should be replaced.
——This was a decision that Huo Caiyu regretted a long time later.
Huo Caiyu was completely stunned when he heard His Majesty said that he wanted him to stay in bed, and rationally told him not to be surprised, hadn't he already guessed His Majesty's purpose of keeping him at first?The maids and servants chatting behind their backs also regarded him as the emperor's male favourite, such as Concubine Xian, who directly wrote contempt on their faces.
He had been humiliated and resented before, and he secretly made up his mind that if Emperor Dog really had such dirty thoughts, he would have to pay the price even if he risked his life!
Now that His Majesty said the word "servant bed", Huo Caiyu suddenly found that he had no anger as he imagined at the beginning, only a trace of unspeakable panic, as if something that he deliberately covered up was about to be covered by His Majesty's words The words are picked apart.
He thought last night that he would sleep on the dragon bed with His Majesty one day, which was probably the only wonderful experience in his life; he did not expect to experience it for the second time today.
Unlike last night, His Majesty didn't wrap himself around him this time, and slept peacefully beside him, curled up into a dumpling like before, with his head on Huo Caiyu's shoulder.
——This is really a simple "serving bed".
Huo Caiyu turned his head slightly, and he could see Li Jinyu's furry head.
This made him couldn't help but recall the scene last night when His Majesty was naked and his long black hair was hanging down.
Obviously a whole day has passed, but the feeling of His Majesty who was infinitely dependent at that time still lingers.
Huo Caiyu vaguely felt that if he continued to think wildly, it might be bad, so he tried his best to restrain his thoughts, trying to let himself fall asleep.
I thought it was difficult to fall asleep this time like last night, but when I heard Li Jinyu's even and gentle breathing, Huo Caiyu gradually became sleepy.
I had a long-lost dream.
In the dream, he experienced something that he had never imagined in reality, which made people blush.In a trance, His Majesty's handsome face floated up and down in the dream, making him gradually addicted.
……
When he woke up the next day, Li Jinyu greeted Huo Caiyu as usual, and found that Huo Caiyu's attitude seemed a little strange.
His gaze was very dodgy, and he didn't face him head-on. After getting up, he ran away immediately with the excuse of dealing with government affairs.
In the next few days, there was no sign of anyone at all.
Li Jinyu wanted to rub Ziwei's imperial spirit again at night, but was told by the palace people of Jiaolan Palace that Huo Caiyu was staying in the concierge of the Hall of Supreme Harmony to handle documents.
Li Jinyu had no choice but to simply sleep on Huo Caiyu's bed, feeling infinitely wronged.
——Could it be that he sleeps too badly?
I don't know if Huo Caiyu's quilt and pillow stained with Ziwei Emperor Qi can help him drive away those dirty things.
However, although Huo Caiyu didn't show up, the matter was handled very quickly.
In just a few days, Li Jinyu heard Chang Kang report several times on Huo Caiyu's progress in rectifying the palace's internal affairs.
With Li Jinyu's will, Huo Caiyu directly brought the guards into the Supervisor of Ceremonies, sorted all the eunuchs into the team according to the roster, and then checked the account books of the Supervisor of Ceremonies one by one. Duties were broken up and reassigned.
The concubines who dared to reach out to the emperor's servants were also punished one by one.
Among them, the most blatant concubine Xian, Li Jinyu personally punished her according to the evidence presented by Huo Caiyu, and directly demoted her status by one level.
There are also several departments such as the Wine and Noodle Bureau and the Quyi Bureau that Emperor Jingchang established purely for pleasure. After consulting Li Jinyu, they were all cut down and merged into the Wine Vinegar Noodle Bureau and the Siyuan Bureau. The extra manpower was used to fill the vacancies that fell out. .
Afterwards, Huo Caiyu took out the palace rules formulated by the Supervisor of Ceremonies, but were completely ignored later, and strictly followed the palace rules with clear rewards and punishments.
Although the process encountered a lot of resistance, Li Jinyu tried his best to support Huo Caiyu, and the inner courtyard of the palace was finally cleared.
The smoky imperial palace, where Emperor Jingchang indulged in pleasure and indulged in stupidity and tyranny, finally regained order.
Huo Caiyu wiped out the eyeliners of the various palaces one by one, and Li Jinyu finally didn't have to worry about the palace concubine knowing ahead of the person doing things after the order.
Li Jinyu watched Huo Caiyu devote himself to the rectification of the palace, marveled that Huo Caiyu really cared about his future family, and wondered if he should take this opportunity to give Huo Caiyu another reward.
Although he hasn't seen Huo Caiyu for many days.
After Li Jinyu came to this world, what he cared most about was Huo Caiyu. Every day before, he thought about how to deal with Huo Caiyu and how to avoid being impacted by Huo Caiyu's purple myrtle imperial aura.
He was really not used to not seeing him for a long time.
The palace was almost rectified, and Huo Caiyu finally showed up. Before Li Jinyu could praise him, Huo Caiyu lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, please allow me to go to Qingshui County."
To Qingshui County?
Li Jinyu asked in a daze, "Why?"
"A few days ago, I read the documents of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households regarding the implementation of the new policies in Qingshui County. The implementation of the new policies in Qingshui County may not be satisfactory." Huo Caiyu slightly lowered his head, "I want to go and see for myself."
Before, he vaguely felt that the new tax arrangement of Qingshui County by the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households was not right, but he just couldn't figure it out; when cleaning up the internal affairs of the palace these few days, he was vaguely aware of the personnel arrangements in the palace and the inside story of bribery. perceived something.
It is impossible for the prime minister to make their New Deal go smoothly, and it is certain to obstruct it.
Li Jinyu had also thought about what the prime minister would do before, but out of trust in Huo Caiyu, he never asked. He only knew that the prime minister had been keeping a low profile during this time.
Now it sounds like Ye Guixiang is planning to directly mess with the bottom layer?
If Huo Caiyu goes out in person, no matter what crooked ways Ye Guixiang goes, he will not be able to resist Huo Caiyu's halo as the protagonist; if the New Deal can be implemented smoothly, Huo Caiyu will be able to take power further.
but……
Li Jinyu looked at Huo Caiyu with a hint of reluctance in his eyes.
—— Huo Caiyu is gone, what can he do?
Leaving aside the question of whether to leave the plot or not, what should we do if we meet that weird black cat without Huo Caiyu's suppression of Ziwei Emperor Qi?
"Do you have to go?"
Seeing the undisguised nostalgia in His Majesty's eyes, Huo Caiyu's heart trembled slightly, and he quickly lowered his head, with an unrecognizable voice: "For the sake of the New Deal, it is necessary for the minister to go there in person."
Li Jinyu stood up, walked around in place, struggled for a while, and finally made up his mind: "I'm sure, but I'm going too."
After thinking about it, staying with Huo Caiyu should be much safer than staying in the palace!
The only problem is that he is worried that Tiandao's father is still restraining him and not letting him leave...
Li Jinyu scratched his ears, and prayed silently in his heart: Dad Tiandao, I am here to supervise your son to go through the plot safely, and I definitely don't want to run away. You must support me!
I don't know whether Tiandao's father supports it or not, but Tiandao's own son definitely does not support it.
Huo Caiyu immediately objected after being stunned: "No, Your Majesty!"
"Why not?"
"Your Majesty, as the king of a country, should sit in the palace and take care of the government affairs. How can you leave the palace rashly?"
Li Jinyu looked at him with some surprise: "How can I have government affairs to take care of?"
Most of them are in the hands of the prime minister, and the ones that are not in the hands of the prime minister are also thrown to Huo Caiyu.
Huo Caiyu remained silent for a while, and then insisted: "The world outside the palace is unstable, and people's hearts are treacherous. It is safer for Your Majesty to stay in the palace."
The people complained a lot about the tyrant and traitor, and he was like this in the past.
If His Majesty left the palace rashly, maybe there would be that extreme person who would risk his life to assassinate him!
Li Jinyu didn't know Huo Caiyu's concerns, he only thought that he didn't want to take him with him—maybe Huo Caiyu had been secretly bored with him for a long time, that's why he avoided seeing him for such a long time.
But it was his purpose to make Huo Caiyu bored with him!
What's more, if you leave the palace, you might find an opportunity to sneak away...
No matter how bad it is, if you encounter an assassin or something to "remove harm for the people", and then add a yellow robe to Huo Caiyu, wouldn't this plot just end!
Li Jinyu was determined to leave the palace.
"This is my order!"
"Also ask Your Majesty to take your life back."
It was the first time that Huo Caiyu refused to comply with such straightforward resistance. After Li Jinyu's initial shock, he felt joy in his heart: This is the right move!Huo Caiyu has begun to resist the decree, isn't this a usurpation of the throne!
He's getting more excited.
But Huo Caiyu refused to let go, and even Chang Kang persuaded him tactfully: "Your Majesty, there is chaos outside the palace, how can there be comfort in the palace? The slaves know that His Majesty is reluctant to part with Mr. Huo, but His Majesty's safety is the most important thing."
Li Jinyu didn't pay any attention to it, thinking about how to get Huo Caiyu to agree.
Recalling what he saw and heard when he was a hamster in modern society, Li Jinyu announced his decision to Huo Caiyu: "If Huo Aiqing refuses to take me with me, I won't eat."
He wants to go on a hunger strike!
……
Huo Caiyu never expected that His Majesty would be so childish and make fun of his body.
At first, I was a little flustered in my heart, but he was soon suppressed by him, and he forced himself to calm down: "I still stick to my position."
Li Jinyu did not eat anything for lunch and dinner that day.
Still the next day.
Although Huo Caiyu avoided Li Jinyu, he still couldn't help asking the palace staff about His Majesty's situation.
Knowing that His Majesty hadn't eaten for two days, Huo Caiyu couldn't sit still more and more.
He deliberately went to the imperial dining room to inquire about it, and found that His Majesty really hadn't passed on the meals in the past two days—the account of the imperial dining room was also rearranged during the cleaning of the palace, and it was clear at a glance whether the specific ingredients were used.
"Your Majesty has not left the palace for a long time today, and even announced an audience with the imperial physician..."
Huo Caiyu put down the account book in his hand, pursed his lips, and went to the bedroom to ask to see him.
As soon as he entered the palace, he saw Li Jinyu lying on the dragon couch, his right hand covering his cheek and sighing, while the old doctor was packing his things.
Huo Caiyu frowned slightly, walked over and asked, "How is Your Majesty?"
The old imperial doctor coughed: "Your Majesty is fine, just take some medicine to reduce the fire, and then tell the imperial dining room to have a richer meal."
Huo Caiyu sat down with a slightly solemn face, and reached out to feel Li Jinyu's pulse.
Li Jinyu wanted to hide, but Huo Caiyu's martial arts practice was more sensitive than him, and he was concerned, so he grabbed his wrist.
After feeling his pulse for a while, Huo Caiyu's face changed slightly, and his eyes focused on Li Jinyu's face.
Li Jinyu gave a dry laugh with some guilt, and shrank back into the dragon couch.
Huo Caiyu let go of Li Jinyu's hand, and the worry on his face before was replaced by an expression of anger or laughter: "Why does your majesty play tricks like this with my minister?"
This rising pulse is obviously caused by eating too much hot food recently.
Thinking about it again, His Majesty loved to eat dried fruit snacks like peanuts and melon seeds...
There is indeed no Chuanshan in the imperial dining room, but the understanding of "meal" there has always been serious dishes, snacks are not included!
His majesty has eaten so many dried fruits these two days that he got angry like this!
Seeing that Huo Caiyu had seen through it, Li Jinyu coughed in embarrassment: "I am indeed on a hunger strike! I just eat some melon seeds to pass the time!"
He really wanted to go on a hunger strike at the beginning - he is not a pure human being, he has spiritual reserves in his body, so he will be fine if he starves for a while.
But after two days of running on the big hamster roller, Li Jinyu still felt that something was wrong.
My teeth feel itchy, I really want to grind something...
After touching his teeth, he realized that his teeth had grown a lot longer than before.
Li Jinyu knows that humans will not grow teeth at this age, only their rodent teeth will grow forever, and they must be sharpened frequently.
Alas, this characteristic has been inherited...
Due to the image of a tyrant, Li Jinyu had to give up the jujube furniture that looked good to eat, and reluctantly asked Chang Kang to send some walnut and melon seeds with shells.
It was originally for grinding teeth, but since the walnut kernels have been gnawed out, you must eat them, right?
Going back and forth like this, just...
Li Jinyu clutched his swollen cheeks, wanting to cry without tears.
He is really determined to go on a hunger strike!
As a result, he now looks like a child who can't speak!
Huo Caiyu's eyes seemed to despise him, woo...
Getting angry and having a toothache is by no means a comfortable thing. The imperial physician prepared medicine for Li Jinyu, and Li Jinyu could only drink it obediently.
The taste of the medicine this time is not bad, not as bad as last time. Li Jinyu drank it in one gulp, and just about to announce that his hunger strike plan is not over, when Huo Caiyu said flatly: "For the taste of your majesty's medicine, I asked the imperial dining room to It is useless for His Majesty to go on a hunger strike if you mix it in a soup that does not affect the efficacy of the medicine."
Li Jinyu was stunned for a moment.
Either do not take medicine, or do not go on a hunger strike?
He clutched his sore teeth, tears streaming down his face.
"The minister has to retire first."
Watching Huo Caiyu's leaving back, Li Jinyu felt completely humiliated by the original owner on the dragon couch.
Is there a more stupid "tyrant" than him in the world? !
Chang Kang cautiously leaned over and asked, "Your Majesty, today's imperial meal..."
Do you still pass it on?
Li Jinyu sat up, with a look of grief and indignation: "Pass!"
What's the use of going on a hunger strike now!Just drink the medicine and you won't starve to death!
……
The hunger strike failed, and before Li Jinyu could figure out how to persuade Huo Caiyu, he received a note from Huo Caiyu.
The content of the booklet is an approximate report.
Qingshui County is not too far from the capital, but it still takes some time to go back and forth.Now that the spring tax has started to be collected, Huo Caiyu plans to go to Qingshui County as soon as possible to supervise the tax collection and investigate the prime minister's actions.
"Leave tomorrow?"
Li Jinyu put down the booklet, gritted his teeth and walked around the bedroom, wishing he could stick to Huo Caiyu.
After walking around the room for a long time, his eyes lit up and he had a good idea.
In the next few days, Li Jinyu no longer bothered to go out with Huo Caiyu, but enthusiastically cared about the travel preparations for Huo Caiyu.
The carriage must be big and stable!
More dry food is better!
The bedding should be soft and soft!
Also bring melon seeds, peanuts, walnuts, pine nuts...
Under Huo Caiyu's surprised and suspicious eyes, Li Jinyu spoke earnestly: "I can't go out of the palace, so I use these beloved things to accompany Huo Aiqing, just like I accompany myself in person."
As soon as these words came out, Huo Caiyu really didn't say a word.
Before leaving, Huo Caiyu came to bid farewell to His Majesty.
Li Jinyu was dressed extremely solemnly. The large black-bottomed gilt cloud-patterned imperial robe and the imperial crown with shell-decorated hanging sky made his handsome face even more sacred.
It's not that Huo Caiyu has never seen His Majesty wearing a dragon robe before. I don't know if parting is imminent today, and somehow feels that His Majesty's face is so dazzling that he can't take his eyes off it.
The dream of that night could not help reappearing in his mind, Huo Caiyu hurriedly dismissed those disrespectful images, bowed his head and kowtowed: "Your Majesty is well."
Li Jinyu quickly helped him up, patted Huo Caiyu on the shoulder, covered his face and wept: "Huo Aiqing has been loyal to the country, died until she died, and forged ahead. I have nothing to repay, but I am grateful..."
Huo Caiyu: "..."
It seems that His Majesty's class cannot be stopped.
To his relief, His Majesty didn't seem to insist on leaving the palace with him today.It seems that these few days finally figured it out.
After thinking about it for a while, after returning from Qingshui County, he will arrange a course for His Majesty to improve his literary literacy. Huo Caiyu and Li Jinyu greeted each other with a few words of courtesy before bowing and leaving.
Li Jinyu did not hold back, but held Huo Caiyu's hand and said earnestly: "Huo Aiqing will return safely!"
Huo Caiyu lowered his gaze and landed on His Majesty's hands, trembling trembled from His Majesty's tightly clenched hands, trembling all the way to his heart.
Huo Caiyu inexplicably felt a bit of sourness mixed with fear and expectation, calmly withdrew his hand, bowed his head and said: "The minister leads the order."
After leaving the palace gate for a while, Huo Caiyu couldn't help but look back, seeing his majesty still standing at the palace gate looking at him from afar, he couldn't help feeling that inexplicable feeling in his heart again.
Li Jinyu stood outside the palace gate enthusiastically, waiting for the convoy to disappear, then put away the expression on his face, turned his head and said to Chang Kang, "Go back to the palace."
After returning to the bedroom, Li Jinyu ordered Chang Kang to prepare some dried fruits.
Chang Kang persuaded: "Your Majesty, the imperial physician and Mr. Huo also told you not to eat too much..."
Li Jinyu ignored him, and said again: "Go and call another concubine."
Changkang: "???"
"Be obedient..." Li Jinyu thought about the concubines he had come into contact with, and called out their names, "Just call Weibi."
Changkang: "..."
Since ancient times, the king's heart is unpredictable, and the king's kindness is as thin as paper, he finally saw it.
Less than a quarter of an hour ago, His Majesty and Mr. Huo were still inseparable; Mr. Huo had just left, and His Majesty immediately ordered the concubine?
A while ago, I watched His Majesty demote even the favored Concubine Xian for the sake of Mr. Huo. Unexpectedly, Mr. Huo was only a temporary favorite...
Chang Kang was full of emotion, but he didn't dare to show it in front of His Majesty, he just lowered his head to announce the decree.
Not long after, Wei Concubine came to receive the order tremblingly: "Concubine sees Your Majesty."
Concubine Wei is considered an older person in the harem, and has clearly witnessed most of Emperor Jingchang's atrocities. She has barely managed to settle down with her low-key and unremarkable appearance. She is full of fear for His Majesty and Concubine Xian. Safety.
Even though His Majesty's temper seems to be much better now, the shadow in Wei Bin's heart cannot be erased.
"Your Majesty summoned concubines, what orders do you have?"
Li Jinyu coughed: "It's nothing, I just miss you."
He turned his head and glanced at Changkang, Changkang understood, bowed his head out knowingly, and closed the door by the way.
Standing outside the door, Chang Kang looked up at the sky, and silently sighed for Mr. Huo: In ancient times, there were no flowers in the harem, let alone Mr. Huo, a man?
No matter how much His Majesty favors Mr. Huo, he still treats Mr. Huo as a plaything!
Mr. Huo was able to clean up the smog in the harem at a young age. Changkang and other honest palace people really admire him from the bottom of his heart.
I only hope that after His Majesty gets tired of Mr. Huo, he would still give Mr. Huo a good arrangement for the sake of the past favor.
……
Li Jinyu and Concubine Wei stayed in the dormitory until the evening before going out, and all the meals during the period were brought in directly.
At the beginning, Changkang didn't feel anything unusual, but after the dinner, he realized that he hadn't seen His Majesty all day, and when he sent the imperial meal in, he only heard the orders from Concubine Wei. There were two people lying down, but they couldn't see who they were.
Thinking of His Majesty arguing that he must go out with Mr. Huo a few days ago...
Chang Kang was startled, walked up to the dragon couch, and asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, Empress Wei, do you want Lan Tang to take a bath?"
The figure under the bed veil moved slightly, and a hand suddenly pulled away the veil, revealing Wei Concubine's calm face: "No need."
Chang Kang looked at the fully dressed Wei Concubine in surprise, and focused his eyes on the dragon couch—the gold-embroidered silk quilt was slightly raised, and it looked like a human figure through the gauze. Now it seems...
Chang Kang stepped forward and lifted it up carefully. Under the silk quilt, it turned out to be a white porcelain glazed Longhua pillow. His Majesty who should have been lying here has disappeared without a trace.
"His Majesty?!"
……
At this time Li Jinyu was lying on the bottom of Huo Caiyu's carriage.
The extremely difficult posture of ordinary human beings is easy for Li Jinyu, a soft and flexible hamster spirit.
Just now at the gate of the palace, he verified an answer that made him extremely satisfied - follow Huo Caiyu, and Father Tiandao will not forcibly restrain him.
It's not that he hasn't tried to walk outside the palace before, but when he almost reaches the gate of the palace, the feeling of restraint that follows him will appear, stipulating that his range of activities must be within the palace.
The palace is like a giant hamster cage.
But this time he personally sent Huo Caiyu out of the palace, and he didn't feel any sense of restraint along the way.
The biggest obstacle preventing him from leaving the palace had disappeared, and Li Jinyu carried out his plan without hesitation.
Call the most honest and prudent Wei Concubine over, coerce and lure her to cover him, and then sneak out through the side door—although he is weak in mana, he can still do it by taking off the dragon robe and using a blindfold.
As soon as he left the palace, the free air was very sweet. Li Jinyu originally wanted to go straight to the mountains and find a forest to live a dreamy life of gnawing on pine cones without being disturbed by anyone; The ropes are tied generally tight.
Li Jinyu: "... Father Tiandao, I was wrong."
Woohoo, I still have to find Huo Caiyu!
Huo Caiyu's carriage is not slow, but the athletic ability of a mature hamster is not comparable to that of a horse.
Guided by the distinct Ziwei emperor spirit, Li Jinyu quickly caught up with Huo Caiyu's carriage, and then directly grabbed the carriage shaft and hid under the carriage.
When he personally selected the carriage for Huo Caiyu before, he planned it out. He left a lot of places at the bottom of the carriage to borrow strength. He also specially chose the most stable body and the most stable old horse.
Hooking the bottom of the carriage, Li Jinyu couldn't help yawning in the swaying carriage.
This car shakes too easily to get sleepy...
He pulled out two python pattern belts from his sleeves, tied himself slightly to the hooks on the bottom of the car, and then closed his eyes in peace.
— Forget it, sleep for a while.
……
Li Jinyu woke up again, he was woken up by shaking.
When he opened his eyes, he saw Huo Caiyu's dark face.
Still dizzy, Li Jinyu was still in the palace, yawned and asked in a daze, "Huo Aiqing got up so early?"
Behind Huo Caiyu was a night of stars, his face was tense, and he almost gritted his teeth and asked, "It's getting late, Your Majesty."
Li Jinyu sat up and rubbed his eyes, only to realize that it was already night.
"Your Majesty, let Rong Chen ask, why is Your Majesty here?"
Huo Caiyu couldn't help but want to "offend".
When he stopped the car and was about to go to bed, he heard a "plop" and thought that some luggage had been dropped, but when he got out of the car, he saw his majesty lying under the car!
God knows that at that moment he was so frightened that he almost lost his wits!
How fast is the carriage running, and how fast are the wheels?
If something unexpected happened, His Majesty might directly...
While Huo Caiyu blamed himself for not checking the carriage properly, he quickly carried His Majesty into the carriage.
After checking Li Jinyu's body for a while, he found that Li Jinyu's skin was not scratched except for some dust on his body, and he checked his pulse to confirm that there was no internal injury. Huo Caiyu then heaved a sigh of relief and shook Li Jinyu awake.
Li Jinyu regained consciousness and went back rationally, he said "at a loss": "Isn't I drinking and having fun with Concubine Wei, why did I come here?"
Hearing the name of a concubine from Li Jinyu made Huo Caiyu feel even worse.
With a tense face, he turned his head to pull the rein: "I send Your Majesty back to the palace."
"Wait!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Jinyu yelled, threw himself on Huo Caiyu, and hugged his waist to prevent him from turning his horse's head.
Huo Caiyu was hugged tightly by Li Jinyu, and when he lowered his head, he could see Li Jinyu's bright eyes, his breath was uneven for a while, and when he loosened his strength, Li Jinyu snatched the reins away.
Li Jinyu tightly hugged Huo Caiyu's waist, rubbing his chin against Huo Caiyu's chest: "I don't want to go back, I don't want to go back!"
Huo Caiyu's voice was a little difficult and obscure: "Your Majesty, you get up first."
"No! Unless you promise me!"
"Get up first!"
"Promise first!"
Huo Caiyu watched His Majesty rubbing against him, his face getting closer and closer, and he couldn't help breathing faster.
He finally couldn't bear it anymore, gritted his teeth and replied: "I agree, Your Majesty will come down first."
Finally, when Huo Caiyu let go, Li Jinyu was happy, let go of his hands and stood up, holding the rein behind his back, watching Huo Caiyu sit up with vigilance: "Huo Aiqing, you must keep your word."
The future emperor, no joke!
Huo Caiyu glanced at him wordlessly.
When His Majesty hugged him just now, he was extremely nervous and his heart beat faster; when His Majesty stopped hugging him, he felt empty again.
——What's wrong with me?
Huo Caiyu couldn't help but spurned herself in her heart, straightened her clothes, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "I know."
Seeing that Huo Caiyu seemed to be planning to cooperate, Li Jinyu felt relieved and sat down again with satisfaction.
"How did Your Majesty climb under the car?" Huo Caiyu still couldn't help but persuade, "It's too risky, Your Majesty must never do it in the future..."
"I know, so stop talking about it." Li Jinyu raised his hand and muttered to himself: Why is the future emperor so talkative? What about the aura of dominance that he promised?
Huo Caiyu looked at His Majesty's indifferent look, and couldn't help but want to sigh again.
Obviously he is about the same age as His Majesty, but he has known His Majesty for less than a month, but he often feels that he has to grow up quickly.
"Your Majesty is going to Qingshui County, and the route must be arranged by the minister."
Li Jinyu is very satisfied as long as he can stay by Huo Caiyu's side, so he doesn't care: "No problem."
Huo Caiyu gave a few more instructions, but Li Jinyu had no objection at all, and finally asked impatiently: "I've got it all done—can I have dinner?"
"...Your Majesty, wait a moment, I'm going to warm up the dry food."
"No need." Li Jinyu took out the dried fruit and snacks he had prepared from the cabinet of the carriage familiarly, and said enthusiastically, "I can eat this."
Huo Caiyu pursed his lips, seeing Li Jinyu eating happily, felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
He genuinely thought that His Majesty's words of "accompany Aiqing with these things I love" were true, and he was moved by this for a long time.
Unexpectedly, His Majesty prepared it for himself.
Huo Caiyu's original plan was to go to the county government of Qingshui County to supervise the implementation of the new tax law, and then go down to the towns and villages to check if necessary.With Li Jinyu now, he couldn't delay like this.
Now that the world is chaotic, he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, but most of his skills are in the immediate skill of killing the enemy in battle, not so outstanding in the off-horse skill, I'm afraid he can't protect His Majesty well.
Subconsciously, Huo Caiyu has included Li Jinyu in the ranks he wants to protect.
Huo Caiyu planned to notify the sheriff immediately when he arrived in Qingshui County to protect His Majesty, and then he went to various towns and villages to check the implementation of the new tax law.
Judging from the government affairs I have come into contact with these days, it seems that the Prime Minister's faction only wants to authorize power and does not plan to rebel. They want a vase emperor more than themselves.
Since His Majesty disappeared, the Prime Minister should be even more panicked.
After thinking like this, Huo Caiyu made a new plan, looked up at His Majesty who was eating melon seeds, sighed slightly in his heart, turned his head and got out of the car to light the bonfire.
Generally speaking, there are special post stations and convoys for officials to travel, and they are greeted and entertained wherever they go; not only are the travellers having fun, but the entertainers are also very welcome—this means that they can use the name of entertaining the peak Then draw a sum of money from the official bank.
As for the shortfall in it, it is natural to vigorously extract it from the people.
Huo Caiyu knew this, so he didn't inform the post stations and magistrates along the way, and went on the road by himself, feeling more comfortable eating the wind and drinking the dew.
Therefore, he deliberately avoided the official road and took a more direct and remote path to Qingshui County.
It takes only two or three days for one person to go fast.
It's just that it can't be like this now with His Majesty.
Huo Caiyu lit a bonfire, put the dry food on the fire and roasted it until soft, tearing off small pieces and chewing, while thinking about where the nearest station is.
Li Jinyu ate a few pieces of exquisite snacks, and ate a handful of melon seeds. When he turned around and saw Huo Caiyu eating dry food in front of the campfire, he felt a little embarrassed.
——This counterfeit and shoddy product is eating snacks carefully prepared by the imperial chef, while the serious future master of the world is eating dry food...
He clapped his hands, walked over with the food box, and handed over a piece of pear flower jujube cake: "Eat this."
Huo Caiyu woke up from his contemplation, moved his mouth, and when he wanted to refuse, Li Jinyu had already pushed the whole piece of pastry to his lips.
Huo Caiyu had no choice but to open his mouth to catch it.
The lips and teeth can feel the sweetness of the pastry, and what is more clear is the inexplicable feeling when His Majesty's fingertips inadvertently touch the lower lip.
Huo Caiyu actually felt that the pastry in his mouth was a bit sweeter than what he ate in the palace.
Did the chef accidentally put too much sugar?
He had fed candied fruit to His Majesty who had a fever with his hands before, and when His Majesty's scorched lips touched his fingers, the feeling he felt was so similar to now.
Huo Caiyu slowly chewed the snack in his mouth, looking up, he could just see His Majesty's bright and flawless smile.
Under the reflection of the night sky like a grand scroll of splashed ink and the bright stars dotted behind her, that smile is purer than moonlight.
Huo Caiyu's heart trembled again.
There is no reason, no motivation, maybe it's just because the night sky is too clear, maybe it's just because the surroundings are too quiet.
He suddenly found that, at some point, his attention was more and more focused on His Majesty himself, rather than His Majesty's wonderful policies.
He vaguely felt that there was a huge, dark, bottomless abyss in front of him, and his body would be crushed if he stepped on it; but on the other side of the abyss, there seemed to be some extremely sweet, clear and mellow Liquan spring that attracted him.
Li Jinyu fed Huo Caiyu a piece of snack, and saw Huo Caiyu sitting there chewing blankly, the dry food in his hand was almost scorched near the fire, he couldn't help being a little strange: "Huo Aiqing?"
Huo Caiyu seemed to be awakened by his sound, took a deep look at him, then lowered his head and continued to eat dry food.
Li Jinyu intuited that there was something more in Huo Caiyu's eyes that he couldn't understand just now, but looking back, it seemed to be just an illusion.
……
At night, Li Jinyu slept on the carriage, covered with soft blankets; Huo Caiyu sat outside by the campfire to watch the night.
Li Jinyu felt very embarrassed at first, and tried his best to invite Huo Caiyu to sleep together in the carriage.
Unexpectedly, Huo Caiyu, who had slept together many times, would simply refuse. Seeing that Li Jinyu wanted to persuade him again, he said directly: "Your Majesty has promised to obey the minister's arrangements outside, right? You are not joking."
Li Jinyu: "..."
All right, the future real emperor doesn't feel sorry for himself, so he doesn't need to force it.
Thinking about being an unpopular little goblin, I can actually enjoy the treatment of the king of a country keeping vigil for me... It will be extraordinarily ostentatious to say it in the future.
On the second day, Li Jinyu was still sleeping in the carriage, so Huo Caiyu drove away.
When Li Jinyu woke up staggeringly, it was almost noon.
Sitting on the shaft of the car, Huo Caiyu noticed that Li Jinyu had woken up. He turned around and said, "Your Majesty is awake? You can use some pastries first, and you won't be able to arrive at the station until evening."
Li Jinyu took a general look at the scenery outside the window, saw that it was still a natural scenery, not like returning to the palace, so he was a little relieved.
Opening the food box, there were only a few pieces of cakes left. Li Jinyu took out a piece and ate it. After estimating the remaining portion, he closed the food box again.
The rest is for Huo Caiyu to eat.
He took out the melon seeds and began to chew on the scenery outside the window.
Huo Caiyu was a little helpless when he heard the sound of "click, click" in the carriage.
