Shen Gong Ji

Chapter 28

As soon as they heard that your young master was coming, everyone stopped their chopsticks and stood up to welcome him.I was also a little nervous, Mr. Gui is an incomprehensible person, he is noble but not arrogant, kind but unfathomable, compared to Mr. Hui, he has a somewhat unpredictable and dangerous aura.

Not long after, a golden and colorful figure appeared at the door.Wearing a thick white fox fur, Ouyang Qi walked in slowly.There was still that indistinct smile on the corner of his mouth.I hurriedly followed the other four people to salute, "I have met your son."

Ouyang Qi smiled and nodded, "Excuse me."

"Thank you sir."

"As soon as I heard that you are here to enjoy the plum blossoms, I'll come to join in the fun." At this time, the palace servant had already placed the seat on the top, and Ouyang Qi went to sit down, "It's such a good thing, no one calls me ah?"

Wei Yongnian replied, "Your Young Master has to take care of many matters in the harem, isn't this minister afraid of disturbing you?"

"Oh, there's still time to enjoy a meal." He looked at the various delicacies on the table, and then looked up out of the window.At this time, the windows on the front of the pavilion have been opened, and you can just see the plum trees spreading on the hillside.The plum blossoms are still condensed with crystal clear frost and snow, but the color is unscrupulously bright red, as if it can melt the snowflakes.

I looked at this scene, but for some reason, I thought of the blood-red maple leaves all over the mountains and plains.

"Huh? Yang Cairen is here today too." At some point, your son's eyes fell on me.I quickly came back to my senses, "Yes, I am an idler, so I joined in the fun."

"Haha, that's great. I haven't seen you for a long time. After what happened last time, I originally said that I wanted to find a chance to see you."

I was taken aback, this was the first time someone mentioned it to me directly since I asked about Feng, I didn't expect him to be quite caring.Originally, I thought that in the eyes of others, this was just a chat after dinner.

"Thank you, my lord, for your concern."

"Ask about Feng, don't be too sad." Your son said, sighing softly, "After entering this deep palace, you and I are sometimes hard to protect ourselves. This kind of thing often happens. The palace attendant who followed us also understands in his heart."

I was even more surprised, I didn't expect that he even knew Wenfeng's name.These words were spoken frankly and sincerely, and my heart felt warm after hearing them.When I looked up at him, I found that his brows were shining, and he was staring at me.

Although he took the initiative to show his favor to me, his real intention is not clear.It's better for me to be careful, "What your son said is true. I have reflected on it in the past two months, and I will definitely discipline the people in my house in the future."

"Okay, let's not mention the sad things." Your young master suddenly looked away, and put on a somewhat heroic smile again, "Today we won't go home until we're drunk!"

Afterwards, the six of us drank heavily, and the noble young master never asked me anything in particular during the dinner.About two hours later, your young master said that he was going to listen to the summary of various affairs of Cai Xi, the head of the Department of Internal Affairs, and left the meeting first.The rest also dispersed.Du Ruo and I were the last to leave. After all, the one with the lowest rank had to be the last to leave.

I just arrived at the ferry in Huaiyuezhou, when I suddenly heard someone calling, "Young talent, please stay." When I turned around, I saw a palace attendant wearing a crimson skirt with a straight skirt walking towards me, although his face was stained. There are traces of the years, but the eyebrows are still clear and look very familiar.I recalled it for a while, and remembered that it was the personal servant of the noble young master who I had met a few times before resigning.

I hurriedly bowed slightly, "Uncle Xie."

"Cairen Yang, don't be like this, kill him and resign." He walked over quickly, and also saluted me, "My lord wants me to wait for Cairen here."

Your son?My heart skipped a beat, "Oh? I don't know what the young master has ordered?"

"It's not a big deal. It's just that I learned that Yang Cairen had been ill a few days ago, so I asked me to give this Heyang pendant to the young master. It's a tribute from Heyang Kingdom in the south. Although it looks like it's just a piece of jade, But if you wear it all the time, it can nourish your body and prolong your life, it is a priceless item." He said, and handed me the small wooden box in his hand.

I took it and opened my eyes.I saw a piece of green and transparent jade, without any blemishes, as if it was condensed from the emerald sea water.It is made into a full and round ring shape, and a sinuous Chilong is also carved on it.

Having been here for so long, I know that people in this world value things like jade pendants very much.Because everyone will get the first jade pendant from their father when they are born, they call it "birth jade pendant".This jade pendant represents a person's life, and even the most important link when they get married is to exchange birth jade pendants with each other, which represents putting one's life into the hands of the other party.And the other jade pendants seem to have a special meaning because of this. If they give jade pendants to each other, they always contain some deep meaning.

Ouyang Qi gave me the jade pendant, it seems that she intends to win me over, if I am willing to join his camp, I will accept the jade pendant.But he also gave me a chance to refuse. After all, Jieci emphasized that the jade pendant is precious. If I don't want to go through this troubled water, I can just say "this gift is too expensive and Juntian dare not accept it".

However, I thought about it for a while, closed the lid of the box, and said with a smile, "Your Young Master treats Juntian so kindly, Juntian will not be able to repay you. If there is any order in the future, Juntian will definitely do his best."

After hearing the resignation, he showed a satisfied smile and bowed to me, "I will definitely convey it to you. Please take care of Yang Cairen, and I will leave first."

"Uncle, please go slowly."

Watching him turn around and go to the other side of the ferry, I lowered my head and took a closer look at the jade pendant.It seems that this trip to appreciate plum blossoms is the right one.

At this moment, Du Ruo suddenly said in a low voice, "Cai Ren, how about this?"

I turned my head to look at him, and I was a little surprised when he seldom opened his mouth.

"Your Majesty hates those in the harem who form cliques for personal gain, especially the noble son..." He hesitated, as if he was not sure whether he should say that.

Looking at his ordinary but comfortable eyebrows and eyes, I felt somewhat comforted.He has known me from the very beginning, and has always been helpful to me. Although I am still not sure what the little emperor's purpose in sending him to me is, I think I can treat him as a friend.

I patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I know it well."

I naturally understand what the little emperor likes and dislikes, but I must survive, and Wenfeng shouldn't just die in vain.Since Huang Yafu is now in power, this right cannot be shaken for a while.I am only a talented person now, anyone can easily crush me to death, I temporarily hide under the wings of your noble son, firstly, I can protect myself, and secondly, I can take the opportunity to cultivate my personal connections in this palace.

As for the little emperor, I can't understand him, he doesn't care much about the harem, and he never neglects Ouyang Qi.So even if he knew that I took refuge in your son, he shouldn't have much reaction.

Floating across the unfrozen water surface of Taiye Pond on a palace boat, I just stepped onto the ferry on the opposite bank, and a little coolness fell on my forehead.Looking up at the sky, the snow is drifting down again.The snow in this world seems to be whiter and cleaner than that in Beijing. It seems that the clouds are falling in small pieces, and the surroundings become misty for a while.

I suddenly didn't want to go back right away. I ate a lot just now, and I should digest it, otherwise I will gain weight again.Thinking of this, I strolled along the lakeside.The willows on the bank had lost their leaves, but their thousands of branches were covered with frost, and at first glance they seemed to be made of silver.Snowflakes came head-on, wet hair and clothes finely and densely.Du Ruo was beside me and told me to go back quickly, but I found a piece of grass covered with thick snow, lay down on it, and spread my body into a big character.

Du Ruo looked at me speechlessly, "What are you doing..."

"This is called Yin Xiaoren." I closed my eyes, feeling the snowflakes falling on my body, as if I was being buried, "When I get up, there will be a big character on the ground."

Du Ruo's head was full of black lines, "Cairen, let's go back quickly. I'm going to catch a cold again."

"You think I'm your weak majesty?" I squinted at him, "It's winter where I used to live, and it's colder than here."

Du Ruo never had anything to do with me, so he could only stare and worry.

I opened one eye, "It's actually quite comfortable, really, try it if you don't believe me."

He shook his head.

I clicked my tongue, "Really! You lie down and try!"

He hesitated, walked over to me and lay down carefully, I tilted my head to look at him, "Spread your hands and feet, like me."

"Tairen... aren't you cold..."

"Don't you feel comfortable?"

"I just feel cold..."

Suddenly, I felt that the original tranquility was disrupted by ripples, as if someone was watching us.I opened my eyes and sat up, only to see a group of people walking slowly on a stone bridge not far away.Those were four palace servants leading the way, and a man in a blue and white blue dress walked behind them.

Looking at this battle, he seems to be a big shot?But I have already met the nine guests and the three young masters, but I have never seen this person.

He must have seen me, because the group came off the bridge and came straight towards us.I couldn't hide now, so I had to bite the bullet and stand up.

At this time, Du Ruo also saw that person, and for some reason, his expression was a little nervous.

"Cairen, that's Prince Wei Liu Wenchuo!" He said in a low voice.

Liu Wenchuo?I searched for the familiar name in my mind carefully, and suddenly remembered that Uncle Jin once told me that the first emperor had nine sons, of which the fifth son Liu Wenchuo, who was raised by him, was the most beloved by Huang Yafu. He wanted to assist him to become the emperor, but who would have thought that the little emperor would be named in the last emperor's edict, which made everyone surprised.

According to the laws of Dayan, if the little emperor made any mistakes before the emperor took charge, Huang Yafu was qualified to depose him and support another prince to take the throne.It is precisely because of this that the little emperor's current situation is actually very dangerous. Once he makes any mistakes, Huang Yafu can use it as an excuse to abolish him.

So this Liu Wenchuo is the greatest threat to the little emperor?

He was only a dozen or so steps away, and I was able to see his face clearly through the wind and snow.His eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to the little emperor, but he is more mature and handsome, a little less gorgeous, and a little more resolute.

"Du Ruo? I also said why I haven't seen you these days, so you are here?" He walked towards us while talking, his eyes fixed on Du Ruo.

I took a look at Du Ruo, and found that he lowered his head in panic, "My servant has seen the prince."

I also saluted along with Du Ruo, but I vaguely felt that the atmosphere between them was a bit strange.Generally speaking, the first person who comes to notice will definitely not be the palace attendant, but the first thing that Prince Wei said when he came up was to Du Ruo.

"I thought it was my younger brother who hid you, but who knew he would give you away. He is really cruel." Liu Wenchuo said regrettable words, but there was a kind of unfathomable and dangerous aura in his eyes. Gougou stared at Du Ruo.

I'm a little speechless, this is too blatant...

Seeing that Du Ruo was a bit overwhelmed, I felt that it would be too disrespectful for me not to help him now, so I said, "Your servant has heard that King Wei is famous, and seeing him today is really extraordinary."

He successfully diverted his attention by saying this, and his eyes shifted, as if he had just discovered me, he looked up and down bluntly, "Are you the talented person brought out from the mountain by the emperor? "

Damn...how do I talk?I was very dissatisfied with his lack of respect and even a bit of arrogance, but I still had to keep a smile on my face, "That's right, I came from the mountains and haven't seen the world, please forgive me if I offend you. "

"Sure enough, he is a handsome man." He praised so much, but it was just a casual feeling, his eyes did not hide at all, as if he was judging the pros and cons of every part of my body.

Damn...it seems that Prince Wei really doesn't care about the little emperor...

"Imperial brother will reward you with his personal palace attendant, you must be very good at pleasing imperial brother?" He finally finished looking at him like a searchlight, and there was a bit of interest in his eyes, "This makes me a little curious No. Even a peerless beauty like Mr. Hui has never received such care."

This person's words are really straightforward, which makes people feel a little disgusted... How did Du Ruo provoke him?I continued to bow humbly, just wanting to get away from this plague god as soon as possible, "Thanks to Your Majesty's love. Jun Tian is just a wild man who doesn't understand anything. I have to go back to take care of some affairs, so I won't waste the prince's time."

"Please." He turned his side like a gentleman, and asked me to go first.I motioned for Du Ruo to leave with me quickly, and after another salute, I walked away quickly.After walking a few steps, I looked back, but I saw him still looking over from a distance, his face was blurred in the snow, and he didn't know what his expression was.
