The emperor's heart alone

According to the customs of the Daping Dynasty, the first day of the Lunar New Year is a day for family reunion. On this day, there is no need to visit relatives and friends, just stay in your own home and eat a meal in peace, so the whole capital is also very special on this day. quiet and peaceful.

It was not until the second day of the Lunar New Year, when the daughter and son-in-law returned to their natal homes, that the capital gradually became bustling. People on the street carried things in their hands and hurried on their way with happiness on their faces.Because Shao Peilan's natal family was not in the capital, Xu Jia's parents died early, leaving only an uncle who was not very close, so they sent someone to send a gift there, but did not go to visit, so this day's The Xu residence was also very quiet.

It was not until the third day of the Lunar New Year that the capital really became lively.Every household began to visit relatives and friends, and the crowds on the street were rushing to each other. From time to time, someone accidentally bumped into another person. If they encountered a violent temper on weekdays, they would have scolded or even fought the person who bumped into them. However, at this moment, neither the hit party nor the hit party paid much attention to it, and just rushed to their destination happily.

The Xu Mansion is no exception. Early in the morning, Xu Tao, Xu Jia and others left to visit others, while Xu Yunting stayed in the Xu Mansion to receive the visitors who came to the Xu Mansion. Shao Peilan is pregnant, so it is not appropriate to move more. So they stayed in the backyard of Xu's mansion and never showed up, Xu Yunqin was also by Shao Peilan's side, Xu Zhi and Xu Yue also got up early, and now they have had breakfast and are already playing around.Xu Yunjin, on the other hand, was still sleeping dimly on the bed.

Shi Junji came to Xu's residence suddenly last night, it was already late at that time, Xu Yunjin had already gone to bed early, who would have thought that Shi Junji suddenly appeared on the bed, Xu Yunjin didn't take it seriously, just moved inside Moved to make room for Shi Junji, and fell asleep again.Waking up again was because Shi Junji was dishonest and always touched places that shouldn't be touched. Xu Yunjin was impatient with Shi Junji disturbing his sleep, and wanted to kick Shi Junji out of bed, but it was Shi Junji's strength. Older than him, the suppressed Xu Yunjin couldn't move, so he begged in Xu Yunjin's ear again, and Xu Yunjin's heart softened and went with Shi Junji. After tossing for most of the night, finally Xu Yunjin couldn't stand it anymore and fell asleep, Shi Jun Very talented.

Early in the morning, Shi Junji woke up refreshed, but Xu Yunjin was still drowsy after three poles in the sun. Shi Jun was not in a hurry to go back to the palace until he saw the sky was bright, afraid that Xu Yunjin would have a headache from too much sleep, so he did not go back to the palace. Woke up Xu Yunjin softly.

Xu Yunjin yawned and stood up, being waited on and familiarized himself with changing clothes. He didn't really wake up until he sat at the table and started eating. , it would be great to go back to the palace, and save me from having to serve you."

Shi Junji was not annoyed: "When do I need you to serve me? I am the one to serve you." Shi Jun counted in detail, "I took care of undressing last night, and I took care of dressing this morning." What's more, I served you comfortably last night, why don't you admit it today?"

Xu Yunjin gave Shi Junji a hard look, but fortunately there were only the two of them in the room, and no one heard Shi Junji's words, so he said angrily: "Eat your meal, and leave after eating."

Shi Junji laughed twice, and didn't say much, just serving Xu Yunjin while eating.

"When I established the dynasty in Daping, the capital city was chosen in the previous dynasty's Kyoto. One of the reasons was because of the imperial city. If I wanted to rebuild the imperial city and waste people and money, I, the founding emperor of Daping, would never allow it. And the more important reason is, It is the secret passage that exists in the imperial city." Shi Junji said suddenly, and successfully attracted Xu Yunjin's attention, "Back then when he invaded the imperial city, the founding emperor discovered the secret passage of the entire imperial palace in the current Changping Palace. , It's really uncanny workmanship. It is also because of these secret ways that members of the former royal family escaped from the imperial city, and even the Baihe Sect later. The founding emperor was naturally overjoyed when he saw this secret way. Undoubtedly, many With these secret ways, there is an extra means of life-saving, and in addition to the constant repairs and reconstructions of the emperors over the years, the secret ways are even more sophisticated."

"Why are you telling me these things?" Xu Yunjin asked with a frown. Even if he chooses to be with Shi Junji, he doesn't want to know such royal secrets. He is not stupid enough to compare himself with the entire Shi family dynasty. , Shi Junji handed over the private treasury to him to manage, he was already worried enough, now he really doesn't want to know any more secrets, lest he will have to be silenced if he is really separated from Shi Junji one day in the future.

How did Shi Junji know what thoughts were churning in Xu Yunjin's mind: "I'll tell you a secret way, you can go directly to Changping Palace."

After what Shi Junji said, Xu Yunjin was secretly startled, and sighed in his heart that people in the royal family should not be underestimated. How could he have thought that even this place where he has lived for nearly 20 years and where generations of the Xu family have lived for hundreds of years There are also secret passages?It even went straight to the Changping Palace.

And how did Xu Yunjin know that the Xu family had a secret passage, and the other side of the secret passage was directly connected to the Changping Palace, but it was secretly rebuilt by Shi Junji a few days ago.Shi Junji didn't say anything, Xu Yunjin naturally wouldn't know.

After Shi Junji said something, Xu Yunjin knew what Shi Junji was thinking, and couldn't help but sneered: "If you want to come, I can't stop it. The legs are on your body, but if you want me to go find you , that depends on my mood."

Shi Junji laughed in a low voice: "Of course I know, that's good too, it won't be inconvenient for me to go back and forth, by the way, why don't I let someone build the secret passageway into your room, it's more convenient, isn't it? "After finishing speaking, Shi Junji felt that this idea was very good. He wondered why he hadn't thought of this method before, and thought about getting someone to build it immediately after returning to the palace.

Xu Yunjin pursed his lips and remained silent, seeing Shi Junji's expression was imperative, so Xu Yunjin didn't spoil his interest, and after finishing the meal, he directly drove Shi Junji out of his yard, and said loudly: " You go back through the secret passage, and see if there is any room for improvement, and by the way, arrange some tables, chairs, tea, etc., so as not to be thirsty and tired halfway, and there is no place to rest."

After all, he directly closed the door.Fortunately, the people in this yard are also loyal to Xu Yunjin, otherwise, according to the frequency of Shi Junji's visits, I'm afraid they would have been discovered long ago.

Shi Junji touched his nose that was almost hit, with a smile on his face, he turned and walked towards the entrance of the secret passage of Xu Mansion.Neither Shi Junji nor Xu Yunjin found Xu Yunting who was hiding in the dark with startled eyes.I don't know how long it took before Xu Yunting struggled to move, stiffened his body and went to his study room, locked himself in the study room for a whole day, and didn't even show up when someone came to Xu's mansion to visit, and finally sent someone to find Xu Yunjin Just settled this matter.

It took three full days before Xu Yunjin saw Xu Yunting again. As soon as he saw Xu Yunting, Xu Yunjin was startled: "Brother, what's wrong with you? I haven't seen you for three days, why are you so emaciated?" gone?"

Xu Yunting's eyes are complicated, he claims to be smart, and after thinking about it for the past few days, he can only admit what the relationship between Shi Junji and Xu Yunjin is, and he knows that he can't deceive himself anymore.After a few days of suffering, dark circles and sunken eyes are designated, and even more unkempt and irritable. Fortunately, after three days, Xu Yunting wanted to open up more or less, and he would not lose his composure in front of Xu Yunjin. Jin was also able to calm down.

Xu Yunjin couldn't understand the complexity in Xu Yunting's eyes. He just thought that something had happened to Xu Yunting, so he was unavoidably anxious. Remembering that nothing had been found at home in the past few days, and Xu Yunting had never left home, he really didn't know where it happened. There was a mistake.

Looking at Xu Yunjin who looked confused and worried, Xu Yunting couldn't help but feel a little bit bitter. After all, the emperor suddenly reused him. Although there are reasons for his excellence, the biggest reason for coming here is Xu Yunjin. Why do you value yourself so much?

Not only that, Xu Yunjin's grace to enter the palace in a sedan chair outside the palace gate, Xu Yunjin's bad words at the palace banquet and then throwing his chopsticks away, and never came back that night, all these thoughts made Xu Yunting terrified. It doesn't matter if you tolerate it, but it's all because of Xu Yunjin's affection.

Xu Yunjin was furiously stared at by Xu Yunting, and couldn't help asking: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Xu Yunting sighed slightly, did not answer Xu Yunjin's words, and said with a smile: "Have you ever been out of the palace these few days?"

Xu Yunjin shook his head: "It's Chinese New Year, there are so many people outside, I feel too crowded, and I don't have anyone around me to visit, so I feel comfortable staying in the mansion."

"That's not what I said. Isn't the Chinese New Year just to have fun? If I ask you, don't stay in the house. It's good to go out and meet friends. By the way, Su Shao, Liu Sanshao and the others haven't seen each other for several days. See you? You should also get together with them, don't let them come to you all the time."

Xu Yunjin listened to Xu Yunting's words, but his heart was strangely tight. In the past, Xu Yunting didn't care about his own affairs, so why did he tell himself these things now?

Xu Yunting said again: "You are seventeen now, how many rich families at this age do not have concubines? Why don't I find some for you? Don't you really like Luoxue in Huancai Pavilion? If you really Redeem her if you like, even if you can't be a concubine or a housekeeper, my Xu family will not lose her or anything."

Xu Yunjin became more and more weird, so he had to say: "Brother, what's the matter with you? Have you forgotten that I can't get close to women before I'm weak? Not only that, even if I can get close to women, our Xu family has been monogamous for generations , there is no concubine or roommate at all, if you really welcome Luoxue in, how will you explain it to your father and the Xu family?"

Xu Yunjin's words were like a bucket of cold water poured directly on Xu Yunting's head. Yes, based on these two points, Xu Yunjin couldn't have a woman by his side. Can't disregard Xu Yunjin's life and let him touch a woman in front of the weak crown.

The expression on Xu Yunting's face changed again and again, and finally he let out a long sigh: "Forget it, after all, I was too forceful, everything is destined, how can I stop it?" After saying that, he shook his head and walked away.

Xu Yunjin looked at Xu Yunting's back in confusion, why did the elder brother's tone sound like a monk's?Could it be a demon?
