Atypical empress relationship
Work related
A master at cutting off feelings, he only deals with people often and has seen many expressions, but his subordinates—”
The military commander laughed softly.
"There is no love in the eyes of the Holy Majesty."
"is it?"
Zhao Zheng bowed his head and replied in a nonchalant manner, then stretched out his hand and shook his coat, and took a last look at the singing, dancing, and laughing people here, then turned around, turned his face and said to the military adviser
"It's nothing for us, let's go to clean up the matters of going back to Qingyang, now that the royal brother's wedding is coming to an end, it's time for us to go back."
"As ordered."
The military division lowered his head and spoke.
Some people noticed that they left, but they didn't pay much attention to it. Originally, there was nothing to care about, but he was just a prince who had been neglected since he was born.
By the time the banquet ended, it was already late at night, and no one dared to make trouble in the emperor's bridal chamber.
Huai Yu thought too much, and he didn't need to deal with the clothes. When Zhao Ji was toasting with all the ministers in the front hall, a maid had already led him to change clothes. The simple clothes, then returned to the sleeping hall again, and then the ninja was hungry and waited for Zhao Ji to come back, sat with Zhao Ji, tied the sympathy knot, cut the love thread, and waited for all the servants to disperse, then there was nothing to say , the two looked at each other, as if they always felt awkward—what should be next, sharing the same bed, but it’s not just sharing the same bed—
Huai Yu couldn't help thinking about the things between the bed curtains that his aunts taught him, but when those picture books were replaced by himself and Zhao Ji, he always felt that it was really unimaginable.
So when Zhao Ji opened his mouth, Huai Yu immediately held his breath, but Zhao Ji said
"Do you believe in Buddhism?"
"???"
Huai Yu groaned, but didn't realize it for a while, feeling that the question was asked inexplicably, but still answered
"Why do I believe in Buddhism? Even if I want to believe, I should believe in Nuwa or something. Why do you ask this question?"
Huaiyu's mother is from the southwest, where Nuwa is highly respected, but her father wants to disrespect ghosts and gods.
"Because an interesting person offered a gift today."
Zhao Ji stood up and walked to the table, then turned around and waved to Huai Yu
"You come."
Huaiyu stood up in a daze, walked over slowly, sat on a chair, and watched what kind of tricks he was going to play. Speaking of which, the emperor had never seen anything before, so could he be attracted by any congratulatory gifts?
But Zhao Ji didn't speak. When he saw that he was seated, he blew out the candle, and the whole room became dark in an instant. Only the window paper showed the light from the outside, but it was dim, and we could barely see each other. Outline.
Huai Yu listened to the sound of Zhao Ji pulling away the chair, heard him take out some relationship, and heard a click——
Then, a water-blue light suddenly lit up in front of his eyes.
It was a bead with uneven surface. It was said to be a bead, but it was more like a transparent egg, with blue light chips floating inside, and a blue chick-shaped thing floating inside. Like a peacock—but more majestic than a peacock.
Even though it was just a fledgling bird, it made Ran feel majestic.
Huai Yu looked up at Zhao Ji in surprise, and Zhao Ji put his hand on the bead. The chick slowly wandered towards Zhao Ji's palm, and then the shriveled wings slowly Stretched out, floating in the beads, those blue light fragments fluttered one after another, like stars falling from the wings of a baby bird.
And this bird's eyes are still tightly closed, if they are opened, it may be even more amazing.
Huai Yu was a little stunned, and even relieved some of his drowsiness. Looking at the scene in front of him, he didn't know how to express it in words, so he could only raise his head and look at Zhao Ji.
"A gift brought by a monk named Jia Mingye from the sea, called the Great Ming Peacock King."
Zhao Ji said slowly, he stared at the chick swimming slowly in the bead, showing a thoughtful smile
"He said that since ancient times, the divine bird has lived forever, and when its life and soul are exhausted, it will be reborn on the ground, and it will go round and round, immortal and immortal."
Huaiyu looked at him in disbelief, then glanced around in surprise, and finally took a piece of fruit from the table to eat, and said puzzledly
"It's just a legend, don't you believe it?"
"Believe it or not—it really doesn't matter."
Zhao Ji raised his eyes to look at Huai Yu, those eyes were narrow and deep, they couldn't see to the bottom, like deep spring water, if he was happy, it would be affectionate, if he was angry, it would be cold; now He is smiling, those eyes are eye-catching, people can't help being attracted, controlled, and confused.
Huai Yu's heart skipped a beat. It was a clear, unignorable fluster. On such a quiet night, he and Zhao Ji were in the same room—not furtively, not briefly, not guilty of guilt, but living in a dignified way as husband and wife. In the same house, and for many days from now on, he will live under the same roof with this man in front of him——
It was horrible.
Huaiyu clicked, took a bite of the fruit, swallowed it, his eyes flickered, and murmured
"What are you going to do?"
Zhao Ji sidewalk
"What do you think about letting Jia Mingye enter the Ran Temple, host, and open the altar to spread the Dharma? I saw him transforming lotus flowers out of thin air, so I think he must have some real skills."
Huai Yu couldn't even swallow the fruit anymore. He thought he would never be able to understand what was going on in Zhao Ji's mind in his life, and he absolutely didn't believe that Zhao Ji would be killed by some monk who appeared out of nowhere. It confused my eyes, so I laughed twice and said
"Don't tell me that you believe in Buddhism."
Zhao Ji said immediately
"No."
Huaiyu breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhao Ji went on to say
"But maybe it could be considered."
Huai Yu breathed a sigh of relief, choked in his throat, and coughed desperately several times before he recovered. He stretched out his hand and placed it on Zhao Ji's forehead. The hand was neither warm nor had a fever. How could he say such a mess of shocking words up.
Zhao Ji pushed his hand away, frowned and said
"what are you doing."
☆, ulterior motives
"See if your majesty is sick."
Huai Yu lay on the table, raised her eyes and looked at him with a helpless expression
"It's been so many years since the temple, and all the masters in it are eminent monks, how could it be possible for a monk of unknown origin to enter the hall, even if it is the Holy Majesty, you order everyone to let the sages—I'm afraid you won't be able to convince everyone, maybe you really want to It depends on what abilities he has, and there is no need to give him a place in the temple."
Zhao Ji raised his eyebrows and said
"You really think so?"
Huai Yu hummed feebly, feeling that Zhao Ji was inexplicable today, and now that he was hungry and sleepy, he wanted to discuss with him about the monk from the sea.
Life is just too boring.
Zhao Ji let out a groan, and looked intently at the peacock Daming King in front of him. He naturally didn't believe in the reincarnation of gods, but some things happened in front of his eyes and people couldn't find the flaws, so he could only believe it for the time being.
Zhao Ji said to himself again
"Perhaps everyone also thinks the same way. You can't go to the temple, but finding any place to place eminent monks from afar will also damage the reputation of our country. There is a courtyard in the palace that is still empty, so people have to rectify it and build it into a Buddhist temple. The hall is for Kaminye to recite scriptures and worship Buddha. You said before that the queen mother wants to go to some temple, but now there is no need to go out. Someone in the palace will discuss Buddhism with her. Let's meet this eminent monk together, Huai Yu, what do you think?"
"..."
"Hua—?"
Zhao Ji didn't get any response. Looking down, the person sitting across from him had already fallen asleep lying on the table, holding half an apple in his hand.
Is it so that you can't listen to what I say?
Zhao Ji couldn't help sighing, feeling that Huai Yu really didn't have the consciousness to share his worries and solve his problems.
Even though he thought so, Zhao Ji still put away the box, stretched out his hand and took out the fruit in Huaiyu's hand, wiped his fingers clean, condescendingly, hugged him up without complaint, and put him on the bed up.
Then he took off his clothes, left the white silk obscene clothes, and slept with the same quilt, and he didn't feel any difference—except that it was a bit novel, Zhao Ji slept by himself when he was very young, even if he was a personal maid, he slept in the next door. I slept on a couch beyond a curtain, but I never had the experience of sleeping with anyone.
Ever since the night when his mother had an accident, he no longer wanted anyone to be in the same room with him, and he always felt uneasy.
He turned his head to look at Huaiyu's face, the moonlight came in through the window paper and then through the curtain, leaving only a hazy layer of brightness, and when it shone on the person's face, only the outline of the face could be seen. Outline, only in such a quiet night, when Huai Yu is not moving, Zhao Ji can see a little bit of Huai Jin's appearance.
But what's the point of this? It's too boring and ridiculous to desperately search for the shadow of another person from one person, and then hide such thoughts in the bottom of your heart to secretly laugh or comfort.
It's just... Zhao Ji stretched out his hand across Huai Yu's face, landed on his neck, and then drew a line on Huai Yu's neck.
Isn't fate so ridiculous?If you entrust everyone's life and death to yourself, then squander it.
Zhao Ji closed his eyes, and there was already a plan in his mind. He had a lot of things to do, but he had to take his time. The incompetent wife hadn't realized that she wanted to stand side by side with him, and many things couldn't be rushed. of.
However, no matter how much Zhao Ji thought about it, Huai Yu fell asleep without even dreaming.
This should have been a sleepless night for many people, but neither of the two people involved had any awareness.
When Huaiyu woke up in a daze, she called Xiaozhu casually, but she didn't hear Xiaozhu's response, but a gentle female voice sounded
"The queen is awake?"
Huai Yu was so startled by the voice that she opened her eyes suddenly, and she woke up instantly. When she raised her eyes and saw the bright yellow curtain embroidered with dragons and phoenixes above her head, she suddenly remembered that she seemed to have married Zhao Ji and became a queen.
This is a strange and absurd thing to think about. Huaiyu felt a little embarrassed to face people, but when he lifted the curtain, he didn't feel embarrassed anymore.
Because the girl he saw was the maid who told him that the Queen Mother wanted him to marry Zhao Ji on the first seven days of the first emperor.
So Huaiyu froze on the spot, raised her finger and pointed at the maid.
"you--"
But I don't know what to say, whether it is why you told those things, or who ordered you to say, after so many days, what you say again seems to be deliberately targeted.
Moreover, Zhao Ji is very powerful, and he has always been ignorant of the sand in his eyes, so he can tolerate people who have two hearts to serve him personally?
Huaiyu was still struggling, but the maid seemed to have completely forgotten what great words she had said to Huaiyu, she blessed Huaiyu, and smiled.
"Your servant is called Chaoyun. Since the queen has woken up, please take a shower and change clothes."
that's all?
Is it like nothing happened?
Huaiyu let out a dumbfounded oh.
Then he stood up, when Chaoyun wanted to help him, Huaiyu blocked him, smiled, and said indifferently
"I'll do it myself, you guys go out."
"Queen—"
"I will do it myself."
Huaiyu avoided it again, although he smiled, but he didn't have any emotion. Although he was too kind in daily life and was called childish by his mother, he was not very happy when he was put together for no reason.
Chaoyun observed his words and expressions, and knew that the master didn't like him, so he resigned, asked people to put the clothes aside, and followed him all out of the hall to wait.
After the little girls went out, they whispered to Chaoyun, saying that the queen seemed to be different from the rumors, deserted, and she didn't seem to be very gentle.
"So much the better."
Zhao Yun does not squint, even the smile on the corner of his mouth is just right
"If the master treats you well, then you are in danger."
"what?"
What else did the little maid want to say, Chaoyun bent her eyes, and said softly without squinting
"Talking too much is also dangerous. Both the Holy One and the Queen don't like people who talk too much."
The voice was not loud, but it was very threatening, and the little girl immediately covered her mouth, not daring to say a word.
Zhao Yun saw it sideways, and didn't comment too much, but he didn't understand why the Holy Majesty wanted these girls who had just entered the palace to serve the queen. How to pick some such unworthy little girls.
The thoughts of these masters are really hard to guess.
☆、Meet the holy monk
When Chaoyun was muttering outside the hall, Huaiyu had finished tidying up and had breakfast, but Chaoyun still didn't respond—it seemed that she had never said anything too extreme.
Huai Yu didn't take the initiative to bring it up, he was sober now, and he also thought that Zhao Ji didn't seem like someone who could tolerate a reckless person staying by his side. Since he could still let this girl named Chaoyun stay, maybe It's his own intention, although I don't like it very much, but it's not to the point of loathing, I just feel that there is still a gap in my heart.
Then Chaoyun invited the monk who came from the sea to a dinner party, and asked him to go and see the monk's ability together with the queen mother.
Huai Yu suddenly remembered what Zhao Ji said last night, and couldn't help but touch his forehead. He thought that Zhao Ji was just drinking and talking for fun, why did he really love him.
It is too rash.
Huaiyu was sitting in the courtyard with the white cat named Xiaoyu in his arms, wondering what Zhao Ji was going to do, but he couldn't think of anything after thinking about it for a long time, so he had to be in a daze. What other things are easy to do.
He should have gone to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager, but the Empress Dowager did not see anyone after the year. Sure enough, he lit the incense burner in the palace, copied the scriptures, ate fast and recited the Buddha's name.
Huaiyu had nothing to do and didn't want to see him.
This Queen Mother—Huaiyu always felt that he was very scary, it was a kind of unknown fear.
But when you think about it carefully, the queen mother is decent and generous, and her every move is a model of a gentle and elegant nobleman. It is really ridiculous to say that it makes people feel scared.
But he still has to see the Queen Mother tonight.
In the evening, Zhao Ji sent his personal eunuch Xuan Huaiyu to Huaifeng Hall. When Huaiyu arrived, Zhao Ji, Zhao Zheng, the queen mother and the others had already arrived—there was also a monk in a yellow and white cassock. at one end.
It must be the rumored Jia Mingye. Huaiyu was concerned. Zhao Ji had already stood up when he walked over. He took Huaiyu to the seat next to him and sat down. road
"Huaiyu, this is the Master Kaminye who I often mention to you. He traveled from the distant East China Sea and wanted to understand the world of the three thousand worlds."
When did you often mention to me, if you didn’t tell me like sleepwalking last night, I don’t even know what a monk called Jia Mingye is? His expression is a spectacle, so Zhao Ji and Huai Yu looked at each other and poured wine for him, saying very considerately
"Aren't you curious about the Three Thousand Worlds?"
"Three thousand worlds—" Whoever cares about this may not even finish his own country in one lifetime, why should he care about the three thousand worlds? It's too boring.
Huaiyu didn't want to talk to him, so he looked at the monk, his eyes were kind and kind, and he was leisurely, with a little red cinnabar on his forehead, which made him more holy.
Jia Mingye and Huai Yu looked at each other, their eyes were frank, they put their palms together and nodded towards him, and said with a smile
"The poor monk is Jia Mingye, a disciple of the Peacock Daming King, who came from a country beyond the East China Sea and met the queen."
This prefix is probably too long.
Huaiyu couldn't help laughing, coughed again, pretending to be curious and asked
"Is there a country outside the East China Sea?"
Kaminye said slowly
"There are three thousand countries in each of the three thousand worlds. There are mountains outside the mountains, and there are seas outside the mountains. Wherever you step, there are people."
Huai Yu groaned, and after a while, he seemed to understand, and nodded in agreement.
"That's an interesting thing to say."
So I won't continue the discussion - he has always disliked talking about things, it's really too boring.
Now that their conversation had come to an end, Jiamingye saw that the empress had no interest in discussing Buddhism, so naturally he didn't mention it much, and chatted with Zhao Ji some other gossips before getting to the point.
"I heard that the holy monk has the ability to turn a dead tree into a spring, but Huaiyu doesn't believe it."
Zhao Ji didn't feel uneasy at all and said
"Then ask the holy monk to show us all."
Huaiyu resisted the urge to roll her eyes, it was not easy to spoil the situation, so she also smiled and looked at Jia Mingye, wanting to know what magical powers he had, the queen mother who didn't even blink her eyelids raised her eyebrows all over the scene. He raised his eyes and glanced this way.
When Kaminyeah heard the words, he just lowered his head slightly, said Amitabha again, and then smiled and said
"Please Your Majesty prepare a bowl of water and a lotus seed for the poor monk."
"Lianzi."
Zhao Ji waved his hand, turned his face sideways and said to the eunuch behind him
"Go get it."
The little eunuch behind him immediately went to get it, but after a while, he came over with a wooden case, and there was a bowl on the case, which contained only clear water, but no lotus seeds.
The little eunuch knelt on the ground, bowed his head and pleaded guilty
"Report to Your Majesty, the lotus seeds are gone."
This is a joke. The capital of a country, the palace of a country, can't find a lotus seed. If it's not a deliberate embarrassment, no one will believe it.
Zhao Ji smiled, stretched out his foot and kicked the eunuch out, and laughed again:
"What nonsense, you can't find a lotus seed in such a big palace."
Then the eunuch crawled over again, and quickly said:
"Holy Majesty, calm down! In fact, all the best lotus seeds in the palace have been cooked, and the stale lotus seeds have also been discarded, so there are no leftover lotus seeds."
"Ugh--"
Zhao Ji sighed deeply, and said very tiredly
"I never thought that it would be you who hurt our country's prestige."
As soon as these words came out, the eunuch immediately turned pale. He never thought that such a thing as hurting the country's body would fall on him.
These four words are too heavy, and no one would believe that Zhao Ji said it just like that. The Queen Mother frowned, and looked at him, wondering why he was crazy—why lose his composure in front of an outsider, who has been gentle for so many years He has put on a modest face, but after only a few days of being the emperor, he can't bear to show his true colors?
But he didn't speak either. At this time, he opened his mouth to accuse Zhao Ji of his wrongdoing, which was the real taboo.The Empress Dowager lowered her eyes, as if she had heard nothing, Zhao Zheng wanted to say something to smooth things over, but at this moment the Empress Dowager picked up the teacup and drank tea - Zhao Zheng didn't dare to say anything.
He never dared to ignore any movement of the queen mother.
Kaminyeah was still smiling, and he didn't show any angry or nervous expression, he just said
"Then, please ask the poor monk to borrow a blade."
When he was speaking, he raised his hand, and a silver light flashed across the sky, and then he exclaimed, it turned out that he took away a soldier's saber just like that.
☆, unexpected joy
Jia Mingye's method of extracting things from space suddenly caused a gasp.
Huaiyu was surprised at first, then scared, so that someone can take away other people's things without anyone noticing—maybe it should be called illusion?If you want to kill a person, I'm afraid it's very easy.
Can Zhao Ji tolerate someone being so presumptuous in front of him?
After Huai Yu was surprised, she raised her head to look at Zhao Ji's expression with great interest, but the latter was looking intently at the bowl in front of Jia Mingye.
The porcelain bowl filled with clear water.
I saw Jia Mingye stretched out his left hand to touch the blade - the blade was really sharp, he just touched it a little, and immediately the bright red blood flowed down.
Jiamingye dripped the blood into the clear water and clenched his fist again. After a while, no blood dripped down from the wound. When he opened his palm again, it was as smooth as before, without any knife marks.
Immediately, the eunuchs and maids gasped, and they all rubbed their eyes, thinking that they had made a mistake, but no matter how they looked, the wound was indeed gone.
Jia Mingye stretched out his hand and put the knife aside, then nodded to Zhao Ji, still smiling, put his fingers on the bowl, changed the posture of his hands, and muttered something, the blood floating in the bowl actually congealed together, It settled at the bottom of the bowl, and then stretched out a thin blood-red thing that looked like a root, entangled the entire bottom of the bowl.
Then the blood clot grew a thin stem, stretched out of the bowl, and formed a flower bud at the top.
The bud slowly bloomed, and in just one stick of incense, a red lotus bloomed.
Almost everyone held their breath and concentrated, not daring to make a sound.
They have no way to explain such a phenomenon, but it appears so real in front of them, but they have to believe that there may really be gods in this world.
Jia Mingye stood up, put the bowl on Huaiyu and Zhao Ji's side, then sat down again, and said with a smile
"Without lotus seeds, we can only use the flesh and blood of the poor monk as the foundation. Only the blood is vermilion, but we can only produce red lotuses."
However, at this time, no one cared about what he said.
In other words, any language is just icing on the cake compared to the things that are directly presented to people.
Huai Yu stared at the red lotus in front of him, it was so delicate and beautiful, it was so graceful and clean, there was no flaw in it.
This red lotus was given to him by Zhao Ji, and when Huaiyu reached out to take it, Jia Mingye suddenly made a move and reached out to hold his wrist. Almost at the same time, the guard's knife was unsheathed, but Jia Mingye put it down again. The palm of his hand, there was a hint of surprise on his smiling face since he appeared on the stage, and then he had an unexpected expression, saying
"It really is so amazing."
"what happened?"
Huaiyu didn't know why.
Kaminye saluted him, and said very cautiously.
"I used to hear that there is a country in the world, and that men can conceive children. I didn't believe it. Now that I see it with my own eyes, I realize that the world is so big that everything is possible."
Huai Yu's hand paused, he suddenly had a bad premonition, turned his head and looked at Zhao Ji, and saw that there was something unexpected in the other's eyes.
Huai Yu asked tentatively.
"Master, is it for my pulse?"
"Yes"
Kaminye didn't hide it, admitted it bluntly, and then said
"The poor monk looks at the complexion of the queen, and he should be pregnant, but the poor monk has never seen it before, so please don't blame him for his success."
Huaiyu gasped, and sat up straight. Jiamingye's words were like thunder piercing through his ears, making him unable to understand.
is this real?
Probably not.
Only that one time, only that night... It's too unfortunate.
Zhao Ji, on the other hand, was overjoyed. He was like any emperor who had a prince. He loved his house and his cubs, so he could confer Kamingye as a national teacher, live in Jinglian Palace, and give lectures on the altar on the [-]th of every month, benefiting the people. God bless.
The news came so suddenly that Huaiyu was stunned, his mind was muddled, he sent Jia Mingye out in a daze, then followed Zhao Ji back, went into the palace, and waited for the imperial physician to come, before shaking When her head came to her senses, she involuntarily stretched out her hand to cover her abdomen, but she didn't know anything.
The imperial doctor closed his eyes and felt his pulse for a moment, then opened his eyes and asked
"Is there any discomfort in your queen?"
Huai Yu shook his head.
The doctor asked again
"Do you have a desire to eat something?"
Huai Yu continued to shake his head.
"No."
Doctor's convenience
"Your Majesty looks fine."
Huaiyu: "?"
Then the imperial physician took a few steps back, saluted again, and said happily
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, Congratulations to Your Majesty, the Empress is indeed pregnant with a dragon child, and it has been more than three months. Please be careful and keep it safe."
Zhao Ji let him go out with a wave of his hand, and then there were only the two of them left in the room. Huai Yu sat cross-legged on the bed, looked at Zhao Ji, coughed, and then said thoughtfully
"In this world, there has never been such a thing as having a child on the second day of marriage. Three months—it's that day, when you can't come to the palace in time, Your Highness, you must know that this person is me. As a matter of fact The source of this is that courtiers and concubines are really demeritful."
"Your brain is turning so fast at this time."
Zhao Ji smiled, then stood in front of him, looked Huaiyu up and down, and then said incredulously
"Why can't you see it at all?"
three months—
Huai Yu silently rolled his eyes, lay back, not intending to pay attention to him, just closed his eyes, but couldn't help thinking that it really is two people sharing the same body?
Thinking like this, he fell asleep in a daze. Speaking of these days, he seemed to be tired a lot more easily. Is it because of such things that he is sad.
People are like this, if nothing happens, then everything is normal, if you know the future, then everything seems to happen for the future.
It was early morning when Huaiyu woke up, and there was still a bit of coldness in the air. He was lying down well, his clothes had been changed, and he was covered with a quilt, but the place beside him was icy cold, and Zhao Ji didn’t know Either woke up too early, or didn't sleep all night.
Huaiyu walked out, passing by the bowl of red lotus placed on the table, the more he looked at it, the more strange it became, he stood beside him, looked at it for a long time, and then stretched out his hand, and put it on the lotus flower, the feeling was like the real petals overnight Soft, Huaiyu blinked, and pulled out the lotus at once——
Then the lotus shrank rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally turned into a pool of blood.
The blood filled Huaiyu's hands, and then leaked from between his fingers, dropping drop by drop onto the floor.
Looking at it makes people retch inexplicably.
☆, family visit
"Queen!"
Zhao Yun's frightened voice came from the door. She was going to come in to see if the queen had woken up, but she was frightened immediately when she opened the door to see the queen's hands covered in blood.Immediately, he called someone to bring water, and hurried over to wipe him clean, and asked repeatedly where the injury was.
She didn't see things like daggers and scissors, nor did she see the wound, how could so much blood flow out.
Looking at the wiped fingers, Huaiyu always felt as if something was missing, and said without any reaction
"do not know."
"do not know?"
Chaoyun raised his head anxiously, looked at him in disbelief, exchanged glances with him, then quickly lowered his head, and said earnestly
"Your Majesty, shedding so much blood is no small matter, and you—"
"I'm hungry."
Huai Yu interrupted her.
He took out his hand, stood where he was, smiled, and looked at Chaoyun
"Go and prepare meals."
After finishing speaking, he just looked down at his fingers in a daze.
Zhao Yun didn't know what he meant, but seeing that something was wrong with him, he had no choice but to go out, and asked someone to change Huai Yu's clothes, and then immediately sent someone to notify Jun Shang.
Huai Yu only asked them to put their clothes aside and let them all go out.
For a moment, he was the only one left in the empty room.
Only then did Huaiyu turn around, and found a colored glass bottle half the size of a finger in his clothes, he turned around, squatted in front of the pool of blood, stretched out his hand and rubbed the blood onto the glass bottle, I also dripped the bowl of water into the bottle, and then sealed it. I held it in my hand and looked at it for a while. The bloodstains were slowly cut open and scattered in the water, without any trace of lotus.
"What are you looking at?"
Zhao Ji's voice came from the door, Huai Yu turned his head, watched him coming, subconsciously put down his hand, and looked at him strangely
"You should be reviewing the memorial now."
"My wife is injured, as a husband, I should come to visit her."
Zhao Ji came over, sat on the stool next to Huai Yu, raised his head to look at him, but his eyes were open and leisurely.
"It's unabashed hypocrisy."
Huaiyu couldn't help but sigh.
The atmosphere relaxed a lot.
Zhao Ji laughed, waved his hand to let him sit down, and said casually
"What's the matter with your hair disheveled, and what's wrong with your fingers?"
"It's nothing, I just pulled out the lotus flower of Jiamingye and got a hand full of blood."
Huaiyu's eyes signaled him to look at the clean bowl, and said thoughtfully
"A fake is a fake."
Zhao Ji didn't know if he didn't hear it, or because he didn't want to discuss such a topic, but he just said "Oh, it's fine, otherwise he went to the general's mansion, but he didn't know how to explain to the general's wife.
"I am going home?"
Huaiyu's ears were sharp and he could hear those words immediately. Sitting next to him, he said excitedly that he had never been completely separated from his parents and brothers for more than a day, and he really wanted to go back and have a look.
"wrong."
Zhao Ji stretched out his hand, tapped the back of Huaiyu's hand on the table, then raised his head to look at him, reminding him word by word
"This is called visiting relatives. This is your home. If you say the wrong thing in the future, you will be laughed at."
Huaiyu blinked, said oh, sighed, and said
"boring."
"Bored?"
Zhao Ji put his hands on the table, looked at Huai Yu, squinted his eyes, and said with a light smile
"Then I'll find something for you to do."
"no."
Huaiyu immediately refused to be tricked many times, and he had already been vigilant. If Zhao Ji asked him to do anything again, he would not be able to do it if he was beaten to death. This is the best day to eat and sleep.
"After visiting relatives, help me see Zhao Zheng off."
Zhao Ji ignored his words, flicked the non-existent dust, and said it anyway.
Huai Yu let out an ah, and asked with some doubts.
"Why don't you go by yourself? And when the prince returns to customs, I remember that there should be a formal banquet to see him off."
If he remembered correctly, when Zhao Zheng went back to the king's land, the late emperor would personally host a banquet. Why did he come to Zhao Ji's place? On the contrary, he doesn't value King Qingyang as much as his father.
No matter how you say it, Qingyang Pass is also a big frontier fortress.
Zhao Ji just said that this was not within the scope of Huai Yu's concern, and then kept silent.
So this person is too annoying. When you are not interested, he will tell you. When you are interested, he will talk about it depending on his mood.
Huai Yu snorted, and said to herself that you wanted my help, but in the end you didn't want to explain the reason - but you already agreed to mention Zhao Ji to see him off.
Some things are done too much, and I always subconsciously agree, or feel that it should be so.
On the day of visiting relatives, there was a lot of ostentation, but Huaiyu sat in a sedan chair all the way to the general's mansion. In front of the door, his parents and elder brother saluted together, saying, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, and the queen is blessed and safe."
The wind blew up the curtain, and Huaiyu wanted to go down, but Chaoyun stopped him, saying in a low voice
"Your Majesty, please be patient, let's talk in the mansion."
Huaiyu looked at her, remained silent, only moved, but did not go down.
This is the rule, how can there be a reckless and reckless queen who shows up in public with great joy and sorrow.
When Zhao Ji said no courtesy, the door of the General's Mansion opened wide, and everyone waited to enter. When they reached the inner courtyard, someone knocked on the door and asked Huaiyu to get off the sedan chair.
As soon as Huaiyu went, she was thrown into her arms by her mother, who pulled her up and down to look at her.
Finally, he pulled himself into the inner room to check his pulse. Huaiyu always felt that it was not easy to face, but he wanted to find Zhao Ji. This man was already sitting on the porch and setting up chess pieces. When he saw him looking over, he even smiled. He smiled, waved his hand and said to catch up on the old days.
Huaiyu had no choice but to be pushed down by her mother, and sat on the stool, while her father who sat across from him didn't seem to know what to say, he knew he was waiting for his mother to speak.
But sighed again, mother walked two steps in the house, then sat down again, sighed and said
"Sure enough, sure enough, you are still childish, how do you raise younger children? How about—"
"lady!"
The general interrupted him, coughed, and said
"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. There is no need to worry too much. Naturally, we really have them. We should be happy."
He didn't care too much about it, as if he didn't feel anything about it.
"Can I not worry?"
"Look at—"
Madam glanced at Zhao Ji and Huai Jin who were playing chess outside, lowered her voice, and said in a very melancholy voice.
"Look at these two people, they don't have any self-consciousness about being parents. If it's someone else, it's serious to accompany them in at this moment, and Yu'er herself doesn't know much about the world, but she has a child, isn't it absurd?"
"Mother."
Huaiyu interrupted him, looking at his mother helplessly, and said
"How could I be so incompetent... You said that I was worthless, but raising a child is such a big deal."
☆, reunion
"You!"
The general's wife held her forehead, she really didn't know how to teach her, and she deeply doubted whether she was too strict at ordinary times, so that she couldn't see her glamorous appearance back then.
The general drank tea leisurely, of course he knew what his wife was thinking, if Yu'er had a temper like his, the palace would have to be demolished sooner or later.
But there is no need to say these words.
It shouldn't be for him to talk, just listen to the madam's complaints, and agree with it.
Huaiyu's left ear went in and out of his right ear, and he didn't take it seriously, just skimming the topic.Talking about the things in the capital, my mother was very happy, said a lot, and brought out a lot of things for Huaiyu to take back to the palace to relieve boredom.
When it was time to go back to the palace as the sun was setting, Huaiyu and Zhao Ji whispered in their ears, and only asked him to accommodate him and stay in the general's residence for one night. Going back will not delay his early morning.
Zhao Ji just shook his head, but he refused to let go anyway, and said that he was childish. Huai Yu took a deep breath, and was about to be violent, about to commit a crime, but when he saw the servants coming back and forth, he said
"Master Asking Mirror is here."
Huaiyu immediately stopped moving, and was in a daze for a while. He felt that he hadn't heard this name for a long time. He hadn't seen Zhang Wenjing since the extremely chaotic night before.
At first he was in a daze for a few days, only struggling with his relationship with Zhao Ji, and later he fell into the endless study of court etiquette. When he finally made up his mind to go to Zhang Wenjing to clarify, he heard Xiaozhu tell him , Zhang Wenjing had already gone back to the south of the Yangtze River for the New Year, and Jinran and the child insisted on leaving, as if it would be the same if they stayed any longer. These people came without saying hello, and left without saying hello.
It's really capricious.
Huai Yu lowered her fingers, and the clothes rustled against her hands
The military commander laughed softly.
"There is no love in the eyes of the Holy Majesty."
"is it?"
Zhao Zheng bowed his head and replied in a nonchalant manner, then stretched out his hand and shook his coat, and took a last look at the singing, dancing, and laughing people here, then turned around, turned his face and said to the military adviser
"It's nothing for us, let's go to clean up the matters of going back to Qingyang, now that the royal brother's wedding is coming to an end, it's time for us to go back."
"As ordered."
The military division lowered his head and spoke.
Some people noticed that they left, but they didn't pay much attention to it. Originally, there was nothing to care about, but he was just a prince who had been neglected since he was born.
By the time the banquet ended, it was already late at night, and no one dared to make trouble in the emperor's bridal chamber.
Huai Yu thought too much, and he didn't need to deal with the clothes. When Zhao Ji was toasting with all the ministers in the front hall, a maid had already led him to change clothes. The simple clothes, then returned to the sleeping hall again, and then the ninja was hungry and waited for Zhao Ji to come back, sat with Zhao Ji, tied the sympathy knot, cut the love thread, and waited for all the servants to disperse, then there was nothing to say , the two looked at each other, as if they always felt awkward—what should be next, sharing the same bed, but it’s not just sharing the same bed—
Huai Yu couldn't help thinking about the things between the bed curtains that his aunts taught him, but when those picture books were replaced by himself and Zhao Ji, he always felt that it was really unimaginable.
So when Zhao Ji opened his mouth, Huai Yu immediately held his breath, but Zhao Ji said
"Do you believe in Buddhism?"
"???"
Huai Yu groaned, but didn't realize it for a while, feeling that the question was asked inexplicably, but still answered
"Why do I believe in Buddhism? Even if I want to believe, I should believe in Nuwa or something. Why do you ask this question?"
Huaiyu's mother is from the southwest, where Nuwa is highly respected, but her father wants to disrespect ghosts and gods.
"Because an interesting person offered a gift today."
Zhao Ji stood up and walked to the table, then turned around and waved to Huai Yu
"You come."
Huaiyu stood up in a daze, walked over slowly, sat on a chair, and watched what kind of tricks he was going to play. Speaking of which, the emperor had never seen anything before, so could he be attracted by any congratulatory gifts?
But Zhao Ji didn't speak. When he saw that he was seated, he blew out the candle, and the whole room became dark in an instant. Only the window paper showed the light from the outside, but it was dim, and we could barely see each other. Outline.
Huai Yu listened to the sound of Zhao Ji pulling away the chair, heard him take out some relationship, and heard a click——
Then, a water-blue light suddenly lit up in front of his eyes.
It was a bead with uneven surface. It was said to be a bead, but it was more like a transparent egg, with blue light chips floating inside, and a blue chick-shaped thing floating inside. Like a peacock—but more majestic than a peacock.
Even though it was just a fledgling bird, it made Ran feel majestic.
Huai Yu looked up at Zhao Ji in surprise, and Zhao Ji put his hand on the bead. The chick slowly wandered towards Zhao Ji's palm, and then the shriveled wings slowly Stretched out, floating in the beads, those blue light fragments fluttered one after another, like stars falling from the wings of a baby bird.
And this bird's eyes are still tightly closed, if they are opened, it may be even more amazing.
Huai Yu was a little stunned, and even relieved some of his drowsiness. Looking at the scene in front of him, he didn't know how to express it in words, so he could only raise his head and look at Zhao Ji.
"A gift brought by a monk named Jia Mingye from the sea, called the Great Ming Peacock King."
Zhao Ji said slowly, he stared at the chick swimming slowly in the bead, showing a thoughtful smile
"He said that since ancient times, the divine bird has lived forever, and when its life and soul are exhausted, it will be reborn on the ground, and it will go round and round, immortal and immortal."
Huaiyu looked at him in disbelief, then glanced around in surprise, and finally took a piece of fruit from the table to eat, and said puzzledly
"It's just a legend, don't you believe it?"
"Believe it or not—it really doesn't matter."
Zhao Ji raised his eyes to look at Huai Yu, those eyes were narrow and deep, they couldn't see to the bottom, like deep spring water, if he was happy, it would be affectionate, if he was angry, it would be cold; now He is smiling, those eyes are eye-catching, people can't help being attracted, controlled, and confused.
Huai Yu's heart skipped a beat. It was a clear, unignorable fluster. On such a quiet night, he and Zhao Ji were in the same room—not furtively, not briefly, not guilty of guilt, but living in a dignified way as husband and wife. In the same house, and for many days from now on, he will live under the same roof with this man in front of him——
It was horrible.
Huaiyu clicked, took a bite of the fruit, swallowed it, his eyes flickered, and murmured
"What are you going to do?"
Zhao Ji sidewalk
"What do you think about letting Jia Mingye enter the Ran Temple, host, and open the altar to spread the Dharma? I saw him transforming lotus flowers out of thin air, so I think he must have some real skills."
Huai Yu couldn't even swallow the fruit anymore. He thought he would never be able to understand what was going on in Zhao Ji's mind in his life, and he absolutely didn't believe that Zhao Ji would be killed by some monk who appeared out of nowhere. It confused my eyes, so I laughed twice and said
"Don't tell me that you believe in Buddhism."
Zhao Ji said immediately
"No."
Huaiyu breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhao Ji went on to say
"But maybe it could be considered."
Huai Yu breathed a sigh of relief, choked in his throat, and coughed desperately several times before he recovered. He stretched out his hand and placed it on Zhao Ji's forehead. The hand was neither warm nor had a fever. How could he say such a mess of shocking words up.
Zhao Ji pushed his hand away, frowned and said
"what are you doing."
☆, ulterior motives
"See if your majesty is sick."
Huai Yu lay on the table, raised her eyes and looked at him with a helpless expression
"It's been so many years since the temple, and all the masters in it are eminent monks, how could it be possible for a monk of unknown origin to enter the hall, even if it is the Holy Majesty, you order everyone to let the sages—I'm afraid you won't be able to convince everyone, maybe you really want to It depends on what abilities he has, and there is no need to give him a place in the temple."
Zhao Ji raised his eyebrows and said
"You really think so?"
Huai Yu hummed feebly, feeling that Zhao Ji was inexplicable today, and now that he was hungry and sleepy, he wanted to discuss with him about the monk from the sea.
Life is just too boring.
Zhao Ji let out a groan, and looked intently at the peacock Daming King in front of him. He naturally didn't believe in the reincarnation of gods, but some things happened in front of his eyes and people couldn't find the flaws, so he could only believe it for the time being.
Zhao Ji said to himself again
"Perhaps everyone also thinks the same way. You can't go to the temple, but finding any place to place eminent monks from afar will also damage the reputation of our country. There is a courtyard in the palace that is still empty, so people have to rectify it and build it into a Buddhist temple. The hall is for Kaminye to recite scriptures and worship Buddha. You said before that the queen mother wants to go to some temple, but now there is no need to go out. Someone in the palace will discuss Buddhism with her. Let's meet this eminent monk together, Huai Yu, what do you think?"
"..."
"Hua—?"
Zhao Ji didn't get any response. Looking down, the person sitting across from him had already fallen asleep lying on the table, holding half an apple in his hand.
Is it so that you can't listen to what I say?
Zhao Ji couldn't help sighing, feeling that Huai Yu really didn't have the consciousness to share his worries and solve his problems.
Even though he thought so, Zhao Ji still put away the box, stretched out his hand and took out the fruit in Huaiyu's hand, wiped his fingers clean, condescendingly, hugged him up without complaint, and put him on the bed up.
Then he took off his clothes, left the white silk obscene clothes, and slept with the same quilt, and he didn't feel any difference—except that it was a bit novel, Zhao Ji slept by himself when he was very young, even if he was a personal maid, he slept in the next door. I slept on a couch beyond a curtain, but I never had the experience of sleeping with anyone.
Ever since the night when his mother had an accident, he no longer wanted anyone to be in the same room with him, and he always felt uneasy.
He turned his head to look at Huaiyu's face, the moonlight came in through the window paper and then through the curtain, leaving only a hazy layer of brightness, and when it shone on the person's face, only the outline of the face could be seen. Outline, only in such a quiet night, when Huai Yu is not moving, Zhao Ji can see a little bit of Huai Jin's appearance.
But what's the point of this? It's too boring and ridiculous to desperately search for the shadow of another person from one person, and then hide such thoughts in the bottom of your heart to secretly laugh or comfort.
It's just... Zhao Ji stretched out his hand across Huai Yu's face, landed on his neck, and then drew a line on Huai Yu's neck.
Isn't fate so ridiculous?If you entrust everyone's life and death to yourself, then squander it.
Zhao Ji closed his eyes, and there was already a plan in his mind. He had a lot of things to do, but he had to take his time. The incompetent wife hadn't realized that she wanted to stand side by side with him, and many things couldn't be rushed. of.
However, no matter how much Zhao Ji thought about it, Huai Yu fell asleep without even dreaming.
This should have been a sleepless night for many people, but neither of the two people involved had any awareness.
When Huaiyu woke up in a daze, she called Xiaozhu casually, but she didn't hear Xiaozhu's response, but a gentle female voice sounded
"The queen is awake?"
Huai Yu was so startled by the voice that she opened her eyes suddenly, and she woke up instantly. When she raised her eyes and saw the bright yellow curtain embroidered with dragons and phoenixes above her head, she suddenly remembered that she seemed to have married Zhao Ji and became a queen.
This is a strange and absurd thing to think about. Huaiyu felt a little embarrassed to face people, but when he lifted the curtain, he didn't feel embarrassed anymore.
Because the girl he saw was the maid who told him that the Queen Mother wanted him to marry Zhao Ji on the first seven days of the first emperor.
So Huaiyu froze on the spot, raised her finger and pointed at the maid.
"you--"
But I don't know what to say, whether it is why you told those things, or who ordered you to say, after so many days, what you say again seems to be deliberately targeted.
Moreover, Zhao Ji is very powerful, and he has always been ignorant of the sand in his eyes, so he can tolerate people who have two hearts to serve him personally?
Huaiyu was still struggling, but the maid seemed to have completely forgotten what great words she had said to Huaiyu, she blessed Huaiyu, and smiled.
"Your servant is called Chaoyun. Since the queen has woken up, please take a shower and change clothes."
that's all?
Is it like nothing happened?
Huaiyu let out a dumbfounded oh.
Then he stood up, when Chaoyun wanted to help him, Huaiyu blocked him, smiled, and said indifferently
"I'll do it myself, you guys go out."
"Queen—"
"I will do it myself."
Huaiyu avoided it again, although he smiled, but he didn't have any emotion. Although he was too kind in daily life and was called childish by his mother, he was not very happy when he was put together for no reason.
Chaoyun observed his words and expressions, and knew that the master didn't like him, so he resigned, asked people to put the clothes aside, and followed him all out of the hall to wait.
After the little girls went out, they whispered to Chaoyun, saying that the queen seemed to be different from the rumors, deserted, and she didn't seem to be very gentle.
"So much the better."
Zhao Yun does not squint, even the smile on the corner of his mouth is just right
"If the master treats you well, then you are in danger."
"what?"
What else did the little maid want to say, Chaoyun bent her eyes, and said softly without squinting
"Talking too much is also dangerous. Both the Holy One and the Queen don't like people who talk too much."
The voice was not loud, but it was very threatening, and the little girl immediately covered her mouth, not daring to say a word.
Zhao Yun saw it sideways, and didn't comment too much, but he didn't understand why the Holy Majesty wanted these girls who had just entered the palace to serve the queen. How to pick some such unworthy little girls.
The thoughts of these masters are really hard to guess.
☆、Meet the holy monk
When Chaoyun was muttering outside the hall, Huaiyu had finished tidying up and had breakfast, but Chaoyun still didn't respond—it seemed that she had never said anything too extreme.
Huai Yu didn't take the initiative to bring it up, he was sober now, and he also thought that Zhao Ji didn't seem like someone who could tolerate a reckless person staying by his side. Since he could still let this girl named Chaoyun stay, maybe It's his own intention, although I don't like it very much, but it's not to the point of loathing, I just feel that there is still a gap in my heart.
Then Chaoyun invited the monk who came from the sea to a dinner party, and asked him to go and see the monk's ability together with the queen mother.
Huai Yu suddenly remembered what Zhao Ji said last night, and couldn't help but touch his forehead. He thought that Zhao Ji was just drinking and talking for fun, why did he really love him.
It is too rash.
Huaiyu was sitting in the courtyard with the white cat named Xiaoyu in his arms, wondering what Zhao Ji was going to do, but he couldn't think of anything after thinking about it for a long time, so he had to be in a daze. What other things are easy to do.
He should have gone to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager, but the Empress Dowager did not see anyone after the year. Sure enough, he lit the incense burner in the palace, copied the scriptures, ate fast and recited the Buddha's name.
Huaiyu had nothing to do and didn't want to see him.
This Queen Mother—Huaiyu always felt that he was very scary, it was a kind of unknown fear.
But when you think about it carefully, the queen mother is decent and generous, and her every move is a model of a gentle and elegant nobleman. It is really ridiculous to say that it makes people feel scared.
But he still has to see the Queen Mother tonight.
In the evening, Zhao Ji sent his personal eunuch Xuan Huaiyu to Huaifeng Hall. When Huaiyu arrived, Zhao Ji, Zhao Zheng, the queen mother and the others had already arrived—there was also a monk in a yellow and white cassock. at one end.
It must be the rumored Jia Mingye. Huaiyu was concerned. Zhao Ji had already stood up when he walked over. He took Huaiyu to the seat next to him and sat down. road
"Huaiyu, this is the Master Kaminye who I often mention to you. He traveled from the distant East China Sea and wanted to understand the world of the three thousand worlds."
When did you often mention to me, if you didn’t tell me like sleepwalking last night, I don’t even know what a monk called Jia Mingye is? His expression is a spectacle, so Zhao Ji and Huai Yu looked at each other and poured wine for him, saying very considerately
"Aren't you curious about the Three Thousand Worlds?"
"Three thousand worlds—" Whoever cares about this may not even finish his own country in one lifetime, why should he care about the three thousand worlds? It's too boring.
Huaiyu didn't want to talk to him, so he looked at the monk, his eyes were kind and kind, and he was leisurely, with a little red cinnabar on his forehead, which made him more holy.
Jia Mingye and Huai Yu looked at each other, their eyes were frank, they put their palms together and nodded towards him, and said with a smile
"The poor monk is Jia Mingye, a disciple of the Peacock Daming King, who came from a country beyond the East China Sea and met the queen."
This prefix is probably too long.
Huaiyu couldn't help laughing, coughed again, pretending to be curious and asked
"Is there a country outside the East China Sea?"
Kaminye said slowly
"There are three thousand countries in each of the three thousand worlds. There are mountains outside the mountains, and there are seas outside the mountains. Wherever you step, there are people."
Huai Yu groaned, and after a while, he seemed to understand, and nodded in agreement.
"That's an interesting thing to say."
So I won't continue the discussion - he has always disliked talking about things, it's really too boring.
Now that their conversation had come to an end, Jiamingye saw that the empress had no interest in discussing Buddhism, so naturally he didn't mention it much, and chatted with Zhao Ji some other gossips before getting to the point.
"I heard that the holy monk has the ability to turn a dead tree into a spring, but Huaiyu doesn't believe it."
Zhao Ji didn't feel uneasy at all and said
"Then ask the holy monk to show us all."
Huaiyu resisted the urge to roll her eyes, it was not easy to spoil the situation, so she also smiled and looked at Jia Mingye, wanting to know what magical powers he had, the queen mother who didn't even blink her eyelids raised her eyebrows all over the scene. He raised his eyes and glanced this way.
When Kaminyeah heard the words, he just lowered his head slightly, said Amitabha again, and then smiled and said
"Please Your Majesty prepare a bowl of water and a lotus seed for the poor monk."
"Lianzi."
Zhao Ji waved his hand, turned his face sideways and said to the eunuch behind him
"Go get it."
The little eunuch behind him immediately went to get it, but after a while, he came over with a wooden case, and there was a bowl on the case, which contained only clear water, but no lotus seeds.
The little eunuch knelt on the ground, bowed his head and pleaded guilty
"Report to Your Majesty, the lotus seeds are gone."
This is a joke. The capital of a country, the palace of a country, can't find a lotus seed. If it's not a deliberate embarrassment, no one will believe it.
Zhao Ji smiled, stretched out his foot and kicked the eunuch out, and laughed again:
"What nonsense, you can't find a lotus seed in such a big palace."
Then the eunuch crawled over again, and quickly said:
"Holy Majesty, calm down! In fact, all the best lotus seeds in the palace have been cooked, and the stale lotus seeds have also been discarded, so there are no leftover lotus seeds."
"Ugh--"
Zhao Ji sighed deeply, and said very tiredly
"I never thought that it would be you who hurt our country's prestige."
As soon as these words came out, the eunuch immediately turned pale. He never thought that such a thing as hurting the country's body would fall on him.
These four words are too heavy, and no one would believe that Zhao Ji said it just like that. The Queen Mother frowned, and looked at him, wondering why he was crazy—why lose his composure in front of an outsider, who has been gentle for so many years He has put on a modest face, but after only a few days of being the emperor, he can't bear to show his true colors?
But he didn't speak either. At this time, he opened his mouth to accuse Zhao Ji of his wrongdoing, which was the real taboo.The Empress Dowager lowered her eyes, as if she had heard nothing, Zhao Zheng wanted to say something to smooth things over, but at this moment the Empress Dowager picked up the teacup and drank tea - Zhao Zheng didn't dare to say anything.
He never dared to ignore any movement of the queen mother.
Kaminyeah was still smiling, and he didn't show any angry or nervous expression, he just said
"Then, please ask the poor monk to borrow a blade."
When he was speaking, he raised his hand, and a silver light flashed across the sky, and then he exclaimed, it turned out that he took away a soldier's saber just like that.
☆, unexpected joy
Jia Mingye's method of extracting things from space suddenly caused a gasp.
Huaiyu was surprised at first, then scared, so that someone can take away other people's things without anyone noticing—maybe it should be called illusion?If you want to kill a person, I'm afraid it's very easy.
Can Zhao Ji tolerate someone being so presumptuous in front of him?
After Huai Yu was surprised, she raised her head to look at Zhao Ji's expression with great interest, but the latter was looking intently at the bowl in front of Jia Mingye.
The porcelain bowl filled with clear water.
I saw Jia Mingye stretched out his left hand to touch the blade - the blade was really sharp, he just touched it a little, and immediately the bright red blood flowed down.
Jiamingye dripped the blood into the clear water and clenched his fist again. After a while, no blood dripped down from the wound. When he opened his palm again, it was as smooth as before, without any knife marks.
Immediately, the eunuchs and maids gasped, and they all rubbed their eyes, thinking that they had made a mistake, but no matter how they looked, the wound was indeed gone.
Jia Mingye stretched out his hand and put the knife aside, then nodded to Zhao Ji, still smiling, put his fingers on the bowl, changed the posture of his hands, and muttered something, the blood floating in the bowl actually congealed together, It settled at the bottom of the bowl, and then stretched out a thin blood-red thing that looked like a root, entangled the entire bottom of the bowl.
Then the blood clot grew a thin stem, stretched out of the bowl, and formed a flower bud at the top.
The bud slowly bloomed, and in just one stick of incense, a red lotus bloomed.
Almost everyone held their breath and concentrated, not daring to make a sound.
They have no way to explain such a phenomenon, but it appears so real in front of them, but they have to believe that there may really be gods in this world.
Jia Mingye stood up, put the bowl on Huaiyu and Zhao Ji's side, then sat down again, and said with a smile
"Without lotus seeds, we can only use the flesh and blood of the poor monk as the foundation. Only the blood is vermilion, but we can only produce red lotuses."
However, at this time, no one cared about what he said.
In other words, any language is just icing on the cake compared to the things that are directly presented to people.
Huai Yu stared at the red lotus in front of him, it was so delicate and beautiful, it was so graceful and clean, there was no flaw in it.
This red lotus was given to him by Zhao Ji, and when Huaiyu reached out to take it, Jia Mingye suddenly made a move and reached out to hold his wrist. Almost at the same time, the guard's knife was unsheathed, but Jia Mingye put it down again. The palm of his hand, there was a hint of surprise on his smiling face since he appeared on the stage, and then he had an unexpected expression, saying
"It really is so amazing."
"what happened?"
Huaiyu didn't know why.
Kaminye saluted him, and said very cautiously.
"I used to hear that there is a country in the world, and that men can conceive children. I didn't believe it. Now that I see it with my own eyes, I realize that the world is so big that everything is possible."
Huai Yu's hand paused, he suddenly had a bad premonition, turned his head and looked at Zhao Ji, and saw that there was something unexpected in the other's eyes.
Huai Yu asked tentatively.
"Master, is it for my pulse?"
"Yes"
Kaminye didn't hide it, admitted it bluntly, and then said
"The poor monk looks at the complexion of the queen, and he should be pregnant, but the poor monk has never seen it before, so please don't blame him for his success."
Huaiyu gasped, and sat up straight. Jiamingye's words were like thunder piercing through his ears, making him unable to understand.
is this real?
Probably not.
Only that one time, only that night... It's too unfortunate.
Zhao Ji, on the other hand, was overjoyed. He was like any emperor who had a prince. He loved his house and his cubs, so he could confer Kamingye as a national teacher, live in Jinglian Palace, and give lectures on the altar on the [-]th of every month, benefiting the people. God bless.
The news came so suddenly that Huaiyu was stunned, his mind was muddled, he sent Jia Mingye out in a daze, then followed Zhao Ji back, went into the palace, and waited for the imperial physician to come, before shaking When her head came to her senses, she involuntarily stretched out her hand to cover her abdomen, but she didn't know anything.
The imperial doctor closed his eyes and felt his pulse for a moment, then opened his eyes and asked
"Is there any discomfort in your queen?"
Huai Yu shook his head.
The doctor asked again
"Do you have a desire to eat something?"
Huai Yu continued to shake his head.
"No."
Doctor's convenience
"Your Majesty looks fine."
Huaiyu: "?"
Then the imperial physician took a few steps back, saluted again, and said happily
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, Congratulations to Your Majesty, the Empress is indeed pregnant with a dragon child, and it has been more than three months. Please be careful and keep it safe."
Zhao Ji let him go out with a wave of his hand, and then there were only the two of them left in the room. Huai Yu sat cross-legged on the bed, looked at Zhao Ji, coughed, and then said thoughtfully
"In this world, there has never been such a thing as having a child on the second day of marriage. Three months—it's that day, when you can't come to the palace in time, Your Highness, you must know that this person is me. As a matter of fact The source of this is that courtiers and concubines are really demeritful."
"Your brain is turning so fast at this time."
Zhao Ji smiled, then stood in front of him, looked Huaiyu up and down, and then said incredulously
"Why can't you see it at all?"
three months—
Huai Yu silently rolled his eyes, lay back, not intending to pay attention to him, just closed his eyes, but couldn't help thinking that it really is two people sharing the same body?
Thinking like this, he fell asleep in a daze. Speaking of these days, he seemed to be tired a lot more easily. Is it because of such things that he is sad.
People are like this, if nothing happens, then everything is normal, if you know the future, then everything seems to happen for the future.
It was early morning when Huaiyu woke up, and there was still a bit of coldness in the air. He was lying down well, his clothes had been changed, and he was covered with a quilt, but the place beside him was icy cold, and Zhao Ji didn’t know Either woke up too early, or didn't sleep all night.
Huaiyu walked out, passing by the bowl of red lotus placed on the table, the more he looked at it, the more strange it became, he stood beside him, looked at it for a long time, and then stretched out his hand, and put it on the lotus flower, the feeling was like the real petals overnight Soft, Huaiyu blinked, and pulled out the lotus at once——
Then the lotus shrank rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally turned into a pool of blood.
The blood filled Huaiyu's hands, and then leaked from between his fingers, dropping drop by drop onto the floor.
Looking at it makes people retch inexplicably.
☆, family visit
"Queen!"
Zhao Yun's frightened voice came from the door. She was going to come in to see if the queen had woken up, but she was frightened immediately when she opened the door to see the queen's hands covered in blood.Immediately, he called someone to bring water, and hurried over to wipe him clean, and asked repeatedly where the injury was.
She didn't see things like daggers and scissors, nor did she see the wound, how could so much blood flow out.
Looking at the wiped fingers, Huaiyu always felt as if something was missing, and said without any reaction
"do not know."
"do not know?"
Chaoyun raised his head anxiously, looked at him in disbelief, exchanged glances with him, then quickly lowered his head, and said earnestly
"Your Majesty, shedding so much blood is no small matter, and you—"
"I'm hungry."
Huai Yu interrupted her.
He took out his hand, stood where he was, smiled, and looked at Chaoyun
"Go and prepare meals."
After finishing speaking, he just looked down at his fingers in a daze.
Zhao Yun didn't know what he meant, but seeing that something was wrong with him, he had no choice but to go out, and asked someone to change Huai Yu's clothes, and then immediately sent someone to notify Jun Shang.
Huai Yu only asked them to put their clothes aside and let them all go out.
For a moment, he was the only one left in the empty room.
Only then did Huaiyu turn around, and found a colored glass bottle half the size of a finger in his clothes, he turned around, squatted in front of the pool of blood, stretched out his hand and rubbed the blood onto the glass bottle, I also dripped the bowl of water into the bottle, and then sealed it. I held it in my hand and looked at it for a while. The bloodstains were slowly cut open and scattered in the water, without any trace of lotus.
"What are you looking at?"
Zhao Ji's voice came from the door, Huai Yu turned his head, watched him coming, subconsciously put down his hand, and looked at him strangely
"You should be reviewing the memorial now."
"My wife is injured, as a husband, I should come to visit her."
Zhao Ji came over, sat on the stool next to Huai Yu, raised his head to look at him, but his eyes were open and leisurely.
"It's unabashed hypocrisy."
Huaiyu couldn't help but sigh.
The atmosphere relaxed a lot.
Zhao Ji laughed, waved his hand to let him sit down, and said casually
"What's the matter with your hair disheveled, and what's wrong with your fingers?"
"It's nothing, I just pulled out the lotus flower of Jiamingye and got a hand full of blood."
Huaiyu's eyes signaled him to look at the clean bowl, and said thoughtfully
"A fake is a fake."
Zhao Ji didn't know if he didn't hear it, or because he didn't want to discuss such a topic, but he just said "Oh, it's fine, otherwise he went to the general's mansion, but he didn't know how to explain to the general's wife.
"I am going home?"
Huaiyu's ears were sharp and he could hear those words immediately. Sitting next to him, he said excitedly that he had never been completely separated from his parents and brothers for more than a day, and he really wanted to go back and have a look.
"wrong."
Zhao Ji stretched out his hand, tapped the back of Huaiyu's hand on the table, then raised his head to look at him, reminding him word by word
"This is called visiting relatives. This is your home. If you say the wrong thing in the future, you will be laughed at."
Huaiyu blinked, said oh, sighed, and said
"boring."
"Bored?"
Zhao Ji put his hands on the table, looked at Huai Yu, squinted his eyes, and said with a light smile
"Then I'll find something for you to do."
"no."
Huaiyu immediately refused to be tricked many times, and he had already been vigilant. If Zhao Ji asked him to do anything again, he would not be able to do it if he was beaten to death. This is the best day to eat and sleep.
"After visiting relatives, help me see Zhao Zheng off."
Zhao Ji ignored his words, flicked the non-existent dust, and said it anyway.
Huai Yu let out an ah, and asked with some doubts.
"Why don't you go by yourself? And when the prince returns to customs, I remember that there should be a formal banquet to see him off."
If he remembered correctly, when Zhao Zheng went back to the king's land, the late emperor would personally host a banquet. Why did he come to Zhao Ji's place? On the contrary, he doesn't value King Qingyang as much as his father.
No matter how you say it, Qingyang Pass is also a big frontier fortress.
Zhao Ji just said that this was not within the scope of Huai Yu's concern, and then kept silent.
So this person is too annoying. When you are not interested, he will tell you. When you are interested, he will talk about it depending on his mood.
Huai Yu snorted, and said to herself that you wanted my help, but in the end you didn't want to explain the reason - but you already agreed to mention Zhao Ji to see him off.
Some things are done too much, and I always subconsciously agree, or feel that it should be so.
On the day of visiting relatives, there was a lot of ostentation, but Huaiyu sat in a sedan chair all the way to the general's mansion. In front of the door, his parents and elder brother saluted together, saying, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, and the queen is blessed and safe."
The wind blew up the curtain, and Huaiyu wanted to go down, but Chaoyun stopped him, saying in a low voice
"Your Majesty, please be patient, let's talk in the mansion."
Huaiyu looked at her, remained silent, only moved, but did not go down.
This is the rule, how can there be a reckless and reckless queen who shows up in public with great joy and sorrow.
When Zhao Ji said no courtesy, the door of the General's Mansion opened wide, and everyone waited to enter. When they reached the inner courtyard, someone knocked on the door and asked Huaiyu to get off the sedan chair.
As soon as Huaiyu went, she was thrown into her arms by her mother, who pulled her up and down to look at her.
Finally, he pulled himself into the inner room to check his pulse. Huaiyu always felt that it was not easy to face, but he wanted to find Zhao Ji. This man was already sitting on the porch and setting up chess pieces. When he saw him looking over, he even smiled. He smiled, waved his hand and said to catch up on the old days.
Huaiyu had no choice but to be pushed down by her mother, and sat on the stool, while her father who sat across from him didn't seem to know what to say, he knew he was waiting for his mother to speak.
But sighed again, mother walked two steps in the house, then sat down again, sighed and said
"Sure enough, sure enough, you are still childish, how do you raise younger children? How about—"
"lady!"
The general interrupted him, coughed, and said
"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. There is no need to worry too much. Naturally, we really have them. We should be happy."
He didn't care too much about it, as if he didn't feel anything about it.
"Can I not worry?"
"Look at—"
Madam glanced at Zhao Ji and Huai Jin who were playing chess outside, lowered her voice, and said in a very melancholy voice.
"Look at these two people, they don't have any self-consciousness about being parents. If it's someone else, it's serious to accompany them in at this moment, and Yu'er herself doesn't know much about the world, but she has a child, isn't it absurd?"
"Mother."
Huaiyu interrupted him, looking at his mother helplessly, and said
"How could I be so incompetent... You said that I was worthless, but raising a child is such a big deal."
☆, reunion
"You!"
The general's wife held her forehead, she really didn't know how to teach her, and she deeply doubted whether she was too strict at ordinary times, so that she couldn't see her glamorous appearance back then.
The general drank tea leisurely, of course he knew what his wife was thinking, if Yu'er had a temper like his, the palace would have to be demolished sooner or later.
But there is no need to say these words.
It shouldn't be for him to talk, just listen to the madam's complaints, and agree with it.
Huaiyu's left ear went in and out of his right ear, and he didn't take it seriously, just skimming the topic.Talking about the things in the capital, my mother was very happy, said a lot, and brought out a lot of things for Huaiyu to take back to the palace to relieve boredom.
When it was time to go back to the palace as the sun was setting, Huaiyu and Zhao Ji whispered in their ears, and only asked him to accommodate him and stay in the general's residence for one night. Going back will not delay his early morning.
Zhao Ji just shook his head, but he refused to let go anyway, and said that he was childish. Huai Yu took a deep breath, and was about to be violent, about to commit a crime, but when he saw the servants coming back and forth, he said
"Master Asking Mirror is here."
Huaiyu immediately stopped moving, and was in a daze for a while. He felt that he hadn't heard this name for a long time. He hadn't seen Zhang Wenjing since the extremely chaotic night before.
At first he was in a daze for a few days, only struggling with his relationship with Zhao Ji, and later he fell into the endless study of court etiquette. When he finally made up his mind to go to Zhang Wenjing to clarify, he heard Xiaozhu tell him , Zhang Wenjing had already gone back to the south of the Yangtze River for the New Year, and Jinran and the child insisted on leaving, as if it would be the same if they stayed any longer. These people came without saying hello, and left without saying hello.
It's really capricious.
Huai Yu lowered her fingers, and the clothes rustled against her hands
