Daily life of black skin cub's princess

69. Entrusted by the King - The Tanabata Banquet to talk about happy events, entrust the community on the city wall.

Lu Xun, who was negotiating with Qin Tianjian in the East Palace, raised his eyes and saw Wu Xun coming in angrily. He wanted to speak, but when he saw someone else in the room, he puffed his face without saying a word.

Lu Xi asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"

Wu Xun originally considered that there were outsiders present, but he glanced at Luo Yijin, thinking that this person started the matter, so he didn't shy away from it: "If the rumors in Beijing continue to spread, someone will make me cry for pearls." gone."

Lu Xi was slightly startled, and then smiled: "It won't happen soon."

Wu Xun was puzzled, but soon he knew—the Qixi Festival was approaching, and the empress would return to Beijing.

In fact, Anping has almost arranged the Qixi Palace Banquet properly. After asking a few questions, the Empress touched her daughter's hair with a smile: "After getting married, things have become more thoughtful and prudent. How is your son-in-law treating you?"

Anping's cheeks were as red as the sunset in the sky. Seeing that her daughter was always so frank, the queen didn't understand. She patted the back of her hand with a smile: "Then what happened to your brother and sister-in-law?"

Anping blinked, lying on his mother's ear and whispered a few words, the queen's beautiful eyes were slightly open: "I can't hold it back." After thinking about it, I couldn't help laughing, "One thing falls one thing, There needs to be someone who can control him."

Anping couldn't help nodding her head, if she put it back in the past, she would definitely think it was nonsense, the elder brother of the prince is so beautiful, he is the most self-restraining, courteous, gentle and amiable, why should others take care of him.

But since she got married, her father and mother went to the palace in person, the elder brother of the prince seemed to let go of his hands and feet, showing his fists, and no longer had the forbearance he had before.But Anping actually breathed a sigh of relief, because during the conversation with Long Shaolan after getting married, Anping saw clearly the situation of the prince's elder brother from another angle - walking in the abyss like walking on thin ice.

So this time at the Qixi Festival dinner, amidst the eager anticipation of the officials, they did not wait for the emperor's will to return to the court to take charge of the government, but waited for the news that the queen would announce the grand marriage of the prince and Wu Guogong to the world.

Some people wanted to object, especially those ministers who brought their daughters to the palace for a banquet today, but they couldn't help but cast their gazes at Lu Xi, who was sitting at the top of the emperor's seat. Leng Lie seemed to have murderous intentions, the minister who had already appeared in the queue was buzzing, and blurted out: "I wish the crown prince and Wu Guogong a happy marriage for a hundred years."

All the ministers stagnated for a while, and after a moment of silence, they saw the curve of Lu Xi's lips and tacitly made noise again. They all toasted and celebrated, saying auspicious words such as "the couple of gods".The news of Shen Hebi's release gave them a signal - the crown prince and Wu Guogong were by no means as outsiders speculated, but the emperor pulled Lang together to cut the crown prince's power.

After the dinner, Lu Jian called Lu Xi to his eyes: "Go to a place with my father."

Climbing up to the outer city tower, the income of the entire capital can be seen. Today is Qixi Festival, and the streets and alleys are lit with lanterns, which look like strips of light from a distance.The father and son just watched like this, and Lu Jian seemed to be looking at it and recalling it.

After a long while, Lu Jian said, "The Xinggong is beautiful, your mother and I both like it."

"Xinggong Palace has no children, and no younger sister." Lu Xi looked at Lu Jian's profile outlined by the light and shadow, and said bluntly, "Don't father like the palace?"

Lu Jian raised the corners of his lips: "I like you the most, but your mother yearns for the rivers and lakes, and we don't plan to stay longer even in the palace."

Lu Xi was stunned, with thick and complicated emotions welling up in his eyes, he couldn't tell what his thoughts were at the moment, what he was feeling.

Perhaps Lu Xi also recalled the scene more than [-] years ago at this moment, and he couldn't understand the complexity in his son's heart at this moment: "Did you see it?" He pointed to the little lights in the capital, "These are your people, It is the person you need to protect in the future."

With another wave of his hand, Lu Jian's robe sleeves waved behind him to cut through the thick night, and the sound of the wind outside the city stirred the dark forest.His voice also sank: "The emperor guards the gate of the country, and the king dies. Now the Turks pay tribute, but because they were scattered by you, they also need time to regain their strength. The Tatars will no longer harass the border. Self-cultivation and self-cultivation. The Japanese pirates disappeared in order to make a comeback in the future. My son, the border is peaceful and the government and the people are clear, so that the people can live in peace." His eyes fell on the face that seemed to be a little taller. gratified.

"You have done a good job, and I am very relieved as a father. In the future, the mountains may be high and the roads are far away, and there will be dangers and thorns. As a father, I also believe that you will do a good job, better than me, better than your grandfather." That held for more than 20 years Yuxi's hand fell on Lu Xi's shoulder, which was the affirmation of a father and the entrustment of a king.

Lu Jian gently stroked his son's increasingly broad shoulders with his palm, straightened his collar with both hands, and sighed: "The wind is blowing." His son has also grown up.

Then Lu Jian's gaze fell on the black hem at the turn of the stairs, with a little smile in his eyes: "Xiao Xun, come here."

Seeing that he was discovered, Wu Xun scratched his chin and stepped out. He trotted up, holding a fur in his hand, and explained: "It's windy and cold today."

Eunuch Ning followed closely behind Wu Xun, also holding a fur in his hand for Lu Jian to put on.The fur dispelled the chill, and as soon as Lu Jian looked up, he saw Wu Xun was tying his son with his back facing him, and he returned to the year when he was the prince more than 20 years ago in a trance. His father also told himself on such a night that he Decided to feign death to let himself succeed.At that time, besides being stunned and sad, he also had a trace of nervousness and fear, and it was Ming Wan who put the cloak on him at that time.

Lu Jian smiled, although the high places are extremely cold, but it doesn't matter if it's colder with someone to accompany you?It's just that Ming Wan was with her in the past, but from now on, it's his turn to accompany Ming Wan.

……

Back in the East Palace, instead of his usual practice of correcting the memorial until late at night, Lu Xi lay down on the bed early after a simple wash, staring at the apricot yellow hanging high on the bed frame in a daze.

Wu Xun let out a comfortable sigh after shrinking into the bed: "It's different if someone warms the bed."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who was being ridiculed seemed not to hear, and was still in a daze. Only then did Wu Xun realize that something was wrong with him, and reached out to hold Lu Xi's hand: "What's wrong?"

"Xun'er..." Lu Yan's voice was choked for a long time before he spit out slowly, his voice was heavy, "I'm afraid I won't be able to take the position of prince soon."

This sentence from a prince's mouth is somewhat daydream, but Wu Xun will not misunderstand it. There is no suspicion between the father and son, only trust and affection, and it is impossible for the prince to be abolished.But as the person next to him, Wu Xun understood the sadness in Lu Xi's heart.

Wu Xun clenched Lu Xun's hands tightly: "I'm here." It's not that he couldn't guess, otherwise he wouldn't follow today, and how could his martial arts be discovered? He just didn't want Uncle Lu to leave so soon. Hand over the burden to the little one.It's just that I didn't expect Uncle Lu to speak so quickly and end this conversation without exhorting or teaching.

"Uncle Lu is very satisfied, and grandfather is also very satisfied. In the future, I will definitely be a monarch who will satisfy the people."

Lu Xun turned over and rubbed Wu Xun into his arms: "Xun'er, don't be afraid of me in the future. I don't care what other people think, but you can't."

"What are you afraid of?" Wu Xun laughed, his voice soft and waxy, filled with steam, "If I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid you will spoil me, what if I become a traitor in the future manage?"

Lu Xi couldn't help but let out a muffled smile, let go of his arm slightly, reached out and tapped Wu Xun's nose: "If Xun'er becomes a cunning person, let Gu taste whether his mouth is slippery or not."

Is it slippery or not?

Under the flickering candlelight, the two entangled shadows seem to have given the answer.
