Just in time for rain [恰逢雨连天] - Chapter 266
[266. two sixty-five chapters]
In the late evening, the snow fell like flakes between heaven and earth. Zhu Yushen’s carriage arrived at the Noon Gate. Just as he was about to change to the imperial carriage, he saw a person waiting by the door corridor. The waiter who came to greet him said, “It’s Mr. Su.” He helped Zhu Yushen to get off the carriage, and said again, “Master Su has been waiting in the snow for a while. Does His Majesty want to pass him on?”
Zhu Yushen looked away and nodded slightly.
Shaoqing, Su Jin came to see him: “I was in the Shen residence first, and I took a step before saying goodbye to Your Majesty. It’s not the minister’s fault, and the minister will apologize to His Majesty.”
Although she only returned to the palace with Shen Yun’s permission, she was not polite In fact, both Su Jin and Shen Xi belonged to Jin’an’s old ministers. The current situation is not stable. As long as they behave properly, others can’t make remarks.
Zhu Yu took a deep look at her: “Today’s New Year’s Eve, why didn’t you go back to the manor?”
Su Jin said: “Go back to your majesty, the Supreme Court wants to have a reunion dinner.”
Zhu Yu remembered deeply, yes, just entered the twelfth lunar month, Song of the Supreme Court. Jue came to ask him about the New Year’s Eve. Although the courtiers were not allowed to hold banquets in the palace, no one was allowed to eat snacks and meals. Everyone gathered together for a dinner. As long as there was no alcohol, no extravagance, and ambiguity stuck on the edge of the ritual system, the palace was open. One eye closed and the other passed.
Zhu Yu nodded deeply and replied, “It’s okay.” Just as he was about to get into the sedan chair, he saw a person standing outside the West Gate Tower.
Mu Xue came together, and it was impossible to see it from a distance. When he got closer, he realized that the person who came was tall and long, covered in a large black velvet cloak. His eyebrows were so calm that they would condense into a painting in the snow. It was Liu Chaoming.
Seeing that Su Jin was also there, Liu Chaoming was stunned for a moment, and bowed deeply to Zhu Yu: “Your Majesty.”
Su Jin saluted Liu Chaoming: “Master Liu.” Liu
Chaoming nodded: “Master Su.”
Zhu Yushen wanted to ask why Liu Yun was still in the palace, but seeing that there was no one in front of him and he was going in the direction of Liubu, he knew that he, like Su Jin, also went to the court for a reunion banquet.
Su Jin then asked: “The Ducha Yuan has prepared snacks and delicacies. If Your Majesty doesn’t dislike it and is willing to appreciate the light, then it will be full of glory.”
Zhu Yushen didn’t answer, he boarded the imperial chariot and said: “You two, go, pay attention to the snow. You don’t have to stand for me.”
A servant came over with a lamp to guide the two adults Liu Su, Su Jin said: “You step back, the wind lamp is given to this official.”
Then he said to Liu Chaoming: “There is a resolution on the Tuntian case. It’s too late, Shi Yu can’t make up his mind, and wants to ask the adults for advice.”
Liu Chaoming glanced at her and opened the umbrella in his hand: “Speak.” Xue Ye
was too quiet, and the whispers of the two of them entered Zhu Yu’s deep ears. , Approaching the palace gate, Zhu Yushen got off the imperial carriage, and for some reason, he glanced in the direction of noon.
The distance was too far, and after a day of snow, only the backs of Liu Yun and Su Shiyu could be seen vaguely, walking from the twilight buildings to the bright lights of the Metropolitan Court.
From the dark night to the light, it seems to be the same place of return.
The servant Wu Chang brought several servants to greet him, “Your Majesty, you are back.” He said again, “The banquet has been set up in the Huagai Palace. The Tenth Highness and all the clansmen are waiting for you.”
Zhu Yushen raised his eyes. Looking at it, I could vaguely see the lights in the Huagai Hall.
New Year’s Eve, Reunion Night.
But the so-called reunion is to be with family, close relatives and close friends, and those who are waiting for him in Huagai Palace, except Zhu Yiheng, he is not familiar with. His relatives were almost exhausted, many even died at his hands, and his wife left him. His biological mother, Concubine Qi, moved to Baoen Temple to pray for him because he killed too much. I heard that the Ministry of Rites had added a few selected attendants to his harem. With the beauty, he has never seen one in these years, and he is too lazy to see him.
Thinking about it this way, Thirteen is also a good fortune. Even if he won the throne and reached the top, Shen Qingyue and Su Shiyu beside him always regarded him as a close relative.
Unlike him, when he became the emperor, he was separated from everyone in the world.
Maybe all the gains and losses in this world have results, what you give, what you get, if you don’t get it, you don’t pay enough and it’s not pure.
“I won’t go.” Zhu Yu said deeply, “Tell the old ten commanders to disperse, and let him go back to the manor.”
What’s the point of pretending to be peaceful and forceful?
The word “accompanying” shouldn’t be just an appearance, it should be a kind of acquaintance hidden deep in the heart.
Just like Shen Yun and Shen Xi are close relatives, Shisan and his Ayu are close to each other in the world, or as we have just seen, Liu Yun and Su Shiyu, who have gone all the way from the dark night to the lights, have gone through wind and rain, and they can return to the same destination by different paths.
Otherwise, lonely people will be lonely people.
He didn’t care about that either.
Carrying the lamp, Wu Chang led Zhu Yushen to the bedroom, and replied, “Today, before the Second Highness went to the Shen residence with His Majesty, he went to His Majesty’s palace alone and looked through the paintings of the Empress.” He smiled again, “Two His Highness is small, but very sensible, probably because he is afraid that he will not recognize the Empress and the Empress will make your Majesty and the Empress sad.”
Shen Yun’s portrait, Zhu Yushen, is not allowed to be touched at will. myself, that’s why I said this.
Zhu Yushen immediately said, “I see.”
Wu Chang glanced at Zhu Yushen, hesitating to say anything, and for some unknown reason, since the Queen’s concubine left, this unpredictable and feared 95-year-old has been very partial to the second prince. pet.
Wu Chang said: “Your Majesty, did the servant order the imperial dining room to deliver dinner to His Majesty’s bedroom?”
Zhu Yu nodded deeply: “I also bring the book that I left in the Jinshen Hall.”
Wu Chang was stunned. See the fold?
But before he could ask the question, he stopped again, thinking in his heart, yes, what else can His Majesty do other than read the book.
This year has passed, it is not as good as it is, I really look forward to the early spring.
Wu Chang said: “Yes, then the servant will order someone to take it.”
