The emperor's heart alone

There were only the Xu family and the Su family at this table. Xu Tao sat with Su's father, Xu Jia sat with Su Xiyin's mother, and Xu Yunjin sat with Su Xiyin and Xu Yunting.Coincidentally, Xu Yunjin and Su Xiyin were facing the direction where the emperor was.

On such occasions, the emperor was always the last to appear, so Xu Yunjin waited for a while, and finally waited for the emperor to arrive before getting impatient.When the eunuch's announcement came and the emperor was still missing, all the people present stood up and knelt down, bowing their heads and shouting long live.

When the sound of footsteps came from above, the emperor said "Get up." All the people present got up one by one and took their seats again. As soon as Su Xiyin sat down and looked up, he saw Shi Junji sitting on the dragon chair. Fortunately, he didn't shout out, but his expression was dull, as if he didn't know what was going on.

And Xu Yunjin never raised his head to look at Shi Junji who was sitting in the upper position from the beginning to the end, even if that hot gaze fell on him, Xu Yunjin didn't know it at all.Xu Yunjin turned his head to look at Su Xiyin, and found that Su Xiyin had a silly expression on his face. He nudged Su Xiyin with his hand, leaned close to Su Xiyin and said in a low voice: "It's time to recover, calm down, don't Shame."

Su Xiyin gave Xu Yunjin a strange look. He never thought that Shi Junji had such an identity, and such an identity was not a good thing for them.If he had the ability, Su Xiyin did not want Xu Yunjin and Shi Junji to be together. They still have a long way to go, and even more difficulties.

However, Su Xiyin also knew that when Xu Yunjin introduced Shi Junji to them without hesitation in front of them, it already represented many problems. The state of mutual dependence is not something he can shake.

He and Xu Yunjin knew each other from peeing, Xu Yunjin was doing business, and Su Xiyin secretly started a business like the first floor of Jianghu, but it was only because he didn't want Xu Yunjin to be too far away from him, and he worked hard to do everything he could to stand by Xu Yunjin's side. Things, the facts are as he imagined, he really is the most important existence around Xu Yunjin besides his family, he thinks this is enough.

Xu Yunjin will marry a wife and have children in the future, and so will Su Xiyin, but he has enough confidence to make himself even more important than his wife in Xu Yunjin's heart.He can tolerate Xu Yunjin having a wife and children, because he knows that none of these people are more important than him.

However, the existence of Shi Junji is an exception.Rather than saying that he resented Shi Junji for taking Xu Yunjin away, it would be better to say that he admired Shi Junji for having courage that he did not have.Why hasn't he thought about being with Xu Yunjin?However, so many years have passed, and the only thing he can do is to stick to Xu Yunjin's side without saying anything.He is so cowardly, he is not suitable for Xu Yunjin.

After thinking so much, Su Xiyin suddenly calmed down.So what if Xu Yunjin's lover is the current emperor?He, Su Xiyin, is still the most important friend in Xu Yunjin's heart. For a cowardly person like himself, this is already the best result. Being a lifelong friend is not necessarily worse than being a lover.

Su Xiyin, who was relieved, had already thrown away all the shocking emotions just now, and no longer went to see Shi Junji. After all the people had toasted Shi Junji wine together, Shi Junji gave the order to start the palace banquet, and Su Xiyin did not Don't worry about the ministers around who started to make a toast and flatter Shi Junji, and just concentrate on serving Xu Yunjin's dinner.

This habit has been developed since I met Xu Yunjin when I was young. Xu Yunjin is very lazy. If no one is around to serve the dishes when eating, he usually only eats the vegetables in front of him, let alone other shrimps, crabs, etc. that need to be peeled and shelled. It's okay to eat in Xu's mansion, but there are a lot of inconveniences outside, especially when they want to talk about business and can't have other people around.

At this time, it was time for Su Xiyin to do Xu Yunjin's cooking and shelling, and Su Xiyin never tired of doing it.Nowadays, palace banquets are no exception. It is worth mentioning that when Su Xiyin does this kind of thing, there is obviously a sense of showing off and gloating in his heart. Even if you are the emperor, so what?Now the one sitting next to Xu Yunjin is himself, the one who serves Xu Yunjin to eat and makes such intimate gestures is himself, and Shi Junji can only sit in a high position and watch all this.

Su Xiyin's careful thoughts don't know whether Xu Yunjin saw it or not. In short, Xu Yunjin didn't do anything different from the past. Su Xiyin ate the shrimp in his bowl as usual, and he didn't refuse any dishes he brought. If there is any difference, it is just that he has never looked up at Shi Junji, as if this person did not exist in the first place.

Xu Yunting frowned without leaving a trace, looking at Xu Yunjin and Su Xiyin, he always felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere, but he couldn't explain why, so he could only bury his doubts in his heart.

When he came back to his senses, he heard what Xu Tao and Su's father said beside him.

"It's such a pity. Why do you think I gave birth to a son? If I had a daughter at the beginning, wouldn't our two families be married now? Then I have to worry less about him." Father Su sighed.

Xu Tao also saw Su Xiyin's movements and Xu Yunjin's ease, and said with a smile: "No, it depends on how tacit understanding they have." They knew that Xu Yunjin and Su Xiyin had a good relationship, and they didn't even know that they were so close. Surprised.But he didn't mention Xu Yunqin and Su Xiyin's matter, because he was familiar with Xu Yunjin, Su Xiyin often went to Xu's mansion when he was a child, so naturally he knew Xu Yunqin, and has always regarded Xu Yunqin as a My younger sister, Xu Tao and Su's father both knew about it.

"Speaking of which, Xi Yin has also reached the age to marry a wife, but who can choose?" Xu Tao asked.

Su's father said: "It's here, but it's just about to catch up with the emperor's general election. Where can there be any good candidates? The people in the match are all candidates, and those who are not candidates don't like their family backgrounds, so we have to Let’s wait until this draft is over.”

The movements in Su Xiyin's hands paused, and then returned to normal. Only Xu Yunjin, who was sitting next to Su Xiyin, noticed, glanced at Su Xiyin and did not speak.

Xu Tao was thoughtful: "It's true, Xi Yin is the same age as Yun Jin, and a man is different from a daughter. Waiting for another two years will not delay anything. Marrying a wife is a big deal, so we should think carefully about it."

Su's father nodded in agreement: "It's good to get married later, I still want him to go to the battlefield with me for two laps, always stay in the capital and the whole person is lazy, how can I be so useless as the son of my great general ? I won’t let him be a civil servant, it’s better to go to the battlefield with me.”

Xu Tao laughed twice, and didn't say much, Su Xiyin's family was a military officer, Su's father's thinking is not wrong, not to mention that Su Xiyin is not a student, and it is not bad to be able to enter the officialdom with military exploits choose.

Xu Yunjin was eating, but he had been listening to Xu Tao and Su's father talking. When he heard that Su Xi was going to be led into the battlefield, Xu Yunjin frowned. He knew that there was nothing wrong with Su's father's thinking, but speaking from his heart, he He didn't want Su Xi to lead him into the battlefield.A sword has no eyes, even if Su Xi has martial arts, it cannot guarantee safety.If there is any accident...

In his opinion, Su Xiyin has no need to go to the battlefield at all. Su's father, the mighty general, is the most prominent Su family. However, there are also a few members of the Su family who can speak in the capital. Some people are also offshoots of the Su family. After Su's father's glory for decades, the Su family must have been extremely honored and favored. If Su Xiyin later enters the court and becomes an official, or even reaches the position of Su's father, it will not be a good thing after all. Son, as a military officer holding the military power, he was already jealous of the emperor, if he made great achievements, wouldn't he be asking for his own death?

However, Xu Yunjin didn't say anything after all. He is from the Xu family, and he has an extremely cold temperament. He shouldn't care too much about the affairs of the Su family. Seeing Su Xiyin fall to such a point.

After thinking about it several times, when he came back to his senses, Xu Tao and Su's father were surrounded by many ministers, all of whom came to curry favor with them.Xu Jia's and Su Xiyin's mothers were good sisters in the boudoir when they were not married, so naturally they would have endless words to talk about when they met, and now they only care about the two talking, but they don't care about Xu Yunjin and Su Xiyin's. After a while, he got up and went to find other good sisters.Xu Yunting also took the wine glass and went to contact the people from the Imperial Academy.

On the entire table, the presence of Xu Yunjin and Su Xiyin was particularly obvious, and Shi Junji, who has excellent eyesight, could naturally see Su Xiyin's every move.

Shi Junji had always been in a good mood before, looking forward to the coming of the palace banquet at night, and had not seen Xu Yunjin for quite some time, when he thought that Xu Yunjin would appear in front of him at night, Shi Junji couldn't help feeling joyful .

But this joy only lasted until the moment he arrived at the palace banquet.

Xu Yunjin who knelt down for himself like everyone else made him feel uncomfortable and distressed, and then he remembered the part where he had to kneel when he let Xu Yunjin enter the palace, and saw Xu Yunjin and Su Xiyin sitting together, thinking of Su Xiyin Xi Yin's feelings for Xu Yunjin began to feel uncomfortable again.When he saw that Xu Yunjin didn't look at himself and only ate the food that Su Xiyin had brought for him, the discomfort had reached its peak.

Just as Su Xiyin thought, even if Shi Junji and Xu Yunjin were in love with each other, on this occasion, Shi Junji could only sit on a high dragon chair and could not get close to Xu Yunjin, serve him food, or talk to Xu Yunjin. When he spoke, he couldn't even look at Xu Yunjin too carefully, and he couldn't let others discover the slightest feeling he had for Xu Yunjin. This kind of pain really made Shi Jun extremely sad.

Shi Junji suddenly regretted letting Xu Yunjin participate in this palace banquet. There is no doubt that this is a kind of torture for him. The person he loves can't stand by his side, which Shi Junji can't bear.He thought that if the harem concubines and the empress didn't show up, he could deceive himself that these people didn't exist between him and Xu Yunjin, but after all, he was deceiving himself and others. He had already begun to find it ridiculous. To Xu Yunjin, this was not fair.

Shi Junji's complexion has always been ugly, which made the ministers dare not come forward to toast and say some flattering words. Shi Junji raised his head again and glanced in Xu Yunjin's direction. Xu Yunjin still didn't look up, and Su Xiyin was still busy giving Xu Yunjin Peeling the shrimp, Shi Junji only felt that this scene was extremely dazzling.

He thought, Xu Yunjin should be sitting beside him, and he can only sit beside him.

The author has something to say: Little Theater:

Shi Junji prepared a lot of clothes in advance for this day, and started to choose clothes for the palace banquet early in the morning, chose the most handsome one he wore, and waited until the evening to happily attend the dinner.

Who knew that Xu Yunjin didn't even look at him during the palace banquet.

Shi Jun was very unhappy, and when he slept with Xu Yunjin at night, he deliberately didn't take off his clothes, and walked around the room to attract Xu Yunjin's attention.

Xu Yunjin was dizzy from Shi Junji's movements, so he simply turned over and fell asleep quickly.

Shi Junji: "..."
