Chapter 22 Human Heart
Chapter 22 Human Heart
Usually Jiang Sui went out from Chengtian Gate when he left the palace, and Jiang Liu squatted on a tree near Chengtian Gate, but today he went out from Xihua Gate, Chengtian Gate was in the north, and Xihua Gate was in the west, so Jiang Liu couldn't see To Jiang Sui's figure.
Without Jiang Liu following him, Bao Fu felt refreshed.
Because both of them had to go back at night, they didn't go too far, and found a familiar teahouse near the imperial city.
Jiang Sui hadn't been to this teahouse much, but Bao Fu was a regular customer here, and the shopkeeper twitched the corner of his mouth as soon as he came in, not wanting to receive him very much.
There is no other reason, this adult spends less than half of the money every time he comes here, and he also takes a lot of tea with them before leaving. Once, he even took a teapot with him.
Bao Fu looks sweet, can talk, and is extremely good at pretending to be pitiful. Even if the shopkeeper is 12 points energetic, he is still no match for his cuteness attack.
Forget it, a little tea is worthless, so he should give up struggling.
……
He found a clean place to sit down, and waited for the shopkeeper to bring the tea. Bao Fu picked up the teacup, first smelled the fragrance of the tea, then raised his head and asked Jiang Sui, "I heard that Ah Sui was ill a few days ago. feel better now?"
Jiang Sui said truthfully: "I'm not sick, I'm just pretending, I just don't want to go to court."
Bao Fu was a little taken aback, probably because he didn't expect Jiang Sui to pretend to be ill to avoid going to court, but in a blink of an eye, he laughed, "That's good, I thought your old illness had relapsed. .”
Jiang Sui drank his tea with downcast eyes, but said nothing.
About four or five years ago, Jiang Sui was still determined to detoxify. No matter if it was a folk recipe or a secret recipe from the rivers and lakes, he would always come to him. For a while, someone suggested to him that he could use medicinal baths to suppress the poison in his body. poison.Jiang Sui tried for a long time, but found that it had no effect at all, and the medicinal bath made him smell of herbs, and almost everyone came to ask him if he had some disease.
Jiang Sui would always answer that the old disease was onset. If anyone asked what the old disease was, he would say that he had a stomach upset. The medicated food that protects the stomach will be made by the Imperial Dining Room.
Wei Xun only said that a dozen kinds of spices were used in the glazed dish last time, but he didn't mention that seven or eight of the dozen kinds of spices were rare medicinal materials.
After Jiang Sui stopped the medicinal bath, he told everyone that his illness had been cured. Except for Jiang Zhui who couldn't hide it, everyone believed his statement. Only Wei Xun was still worried, and always felt that this illness It's easy to go back and forth, but you still need to take good care of it.
Thinking of Wei Xun, he inevitably thought of that dream, combined with what the eldest princess said today, Jiang Sui couldn't help but start thinking.He is destined to be alone in his life. Others have wives, children, Yue family, and more relatives, but he doesn't have any. There are only a few of his family members. If there are no accidents, there will only be fewer in the future. , but will never increase again.
So he attached great importance to these remaining family members, as well as his close friends. Regardless of whether they would betray him in the future, at this moment, he didn't want to see anything happen to them.
Jiang Sui didn't hand over the list to Wei Xun. He changed his mind. Before telling Wei Xun, he wanted to tell his friends first, so that they could make a conscious change. It would be better for them to take the initiative to get close to Wei Xun than him. It's more believable to say it with teeth.
Thinking of this, Jiang Sui put down his teacup, "How is your situation in the household department?"
This topic jumps up very fast, Bao Fu blinked his eyes, and said briskly: "It's good, I've been away for two months, there is no change in the capital, Master Wang is a good man, he keeps all my work, just wait for me to come back deal with."
Although this caused him to live in the Ministry of Household Affairs for the next half month, he was busy with the dog, but he was relying on misfortune and blessing, no one replaced his position, and his position as servant was still very stable.
Speaking of this, Bao Fu smiled like a moon, "It's all thanks to Ah Sui, if Mr. Wang didn't care about your face, he definitely wouldn't be so kind to me."
Everyone knew that Bao Fu was the regent's man, and Jiang Sui also knew this, so he was a little worried. After a moment of silence, Jiang Sui asked, "Is there no one to make things difficult for you?"
Half of the people in court fawn on him and half hate him. Some people treat Bao Fu badly because he treats Bao Fu well.
Bao Fu tilted his head. He wanted to say it a long time ago. Jiang Sui seemed to have misunderstood his own perception. Everyone saw Jiang Sui's loyalty and hard work for so many years. When he first became the regent, Chaoli is indeed half to half, but now that so many years have passed, there is almost no difference between His Majesty and being in charge alone. Everyone has long understood that Jiang Sui is really good for His Majesty and Wei Dynasty, and those who hate him have long since turned against him.
Even the left and right ministers, who think they are upright, can't save face, so they just want to scold him.This is all petty trouble, if someone really wants to sow discord and cause chaos, the two of them will definitely be the first to jump out and scold each other.
The world is peaceful today because the regent has been trying to turn the tide and balance the government for many years. If you want to kill the donkey, let's see if we agree!
The above are the only words that the left and right ministers said when they stood on the same front.
Of course, Jiang Sui must not let Jiang Sui know about the good face of the left and the right, so this is what they said in private.
It is precisely because of this that Jiang Sui's impression of the courtiers is still several years ago. He always feels that there are many people who hate him outside, and Bao Fu, as his confidant, must have suffered a lot of grievances outside.
It was Bao Fu who started his official career because of his good relationship with the regent: "..."
Worrying, Ah Sui is good at everything, but not confident.
Sighing lightly, Bao Fu said, "No one makes things difficult for me, everyone likes me very much."
If he hadn't sighed, maybe Jiang Sui would have believed it, but because he sighed, Jiang Sui immediately understood that Bao Fu was comforting him, and his helpless tone must have been very bad behind his back.
Jiang Sui paused, and suggested: "Although that is the case, in the future, you should walk less with me."
Bao Fu's smiling face suddenly froze. He was shocked and stared at Jiang Sui, "Why?!"
"Because..." Jiang Sui opened his mouth, "If you walk around with me too much, others will think you are mine."
Bao Fu was stunned for a moment, and said confidently: "They are right, I am your man!"
Jiang Sui felt a headache, "I mean, they will think that the person you are loyal to is me. As a courtier, you should serve the emperor wholeheartedly."
Bao Fu was confused, he half opened his mouth in doubt, and didn't speak for a long time. After a while, Jiang Sui heard him ask slowly: "But, I am your man, and I serve the emperor with you, what's the matter?" Conflict? I have always been your man, and I have always been a good courtier of the emperor, and no one has ever said anything."
After all, the emperor and the regent are one, they come in and out together, the emperor learns from the regent, and what he thinks and thinks is the same as the regent, even though they have different paths.He is a member of the regent, so in a sense, he is also a member of the emperor's faction. Those on the left and right will sing against the emperor. Only the regent, no matter what the emperor does, he will fully support him.
Bao Fu had always thought this way, but after hearing Jiang Sui's words just now, he suddenly didn't understand why Jiang Sui seemed to separate himself from the emperor.
It was as if he and the emperor had already stood on opposite sides.
Bao Fu is only young, he is still very mature inside, he knows everything he should know and not know.Gradually figuring out the meaning behind Jiang Sui's words, Bao Fu's face changed again and again, and this time, he couldn't laugh at all.
He couldn't even think of when it started, and what signs showed the change between the two.
Of course he couldn't think of it, because it was all made up by Jiang Sui, a patient with advanced delusions of persecution.
……
After saying this, he almost understood everything, and Jiang Sui even had the mood to comfort him instead, "People's hearts are changeable, and you will understand this truth when you grow up."
Bao Fu realized that he didn't even care about Jiang Sui treating him as a child again, he asked anxiously: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, he really..."
Jiang Sui remembered the white-eyed wolf described in the book, and managed to squeeze out a desolate smile.
Bao Fu: "...!!!"
With this smile, Bao Fu successfully made up the 50-word story of the tragic wife being abandoned.Or say it is not a family, do not enter a door.
Jiang Sui recalled it for a while, and then recovered. The white-eyed wolf in the book is really hateful. Fortunately, the current emperor is still a cute little boy.Thinking of Wei Xun rushing to the Wenhua Palace even though he was fine today, Jiang Sui realized that Wei Xun should have come to save the scene.
He saved Wei Xun who was urged to marry so many times, and Wei Xun finally came to repay him once.
Smiling slightly, Jiang Sui picked up the teacup, and was about to drink it, but found that Bao Fu looked at him with red eyes, as if you were wronged and I feel so distressed.
Jiang Sui: "...???"
What's the matter, didn't he just remind him to be careful in the future?What he said is right, people's hearts are fickle, maybe one day, his cute little boy will become a white-eyed wolf in the book.
His original intention was to remind, but Bao Fu thought it had already happened, and his good A Sui was finally suspected by the emperor.What the hell did that wolf cub do to make Ah Sui smile so sadly!
Jiang Sui's few words changed Bao Fu's impression of the emperor. He used to think that the emperor was a real dragon and a sage, but now he thinks that the emperor is a sinister villain and a white-eyed wolf.
Bao Fu didn't calm down until he left the teahouse. It was just a coincidence that as soon as he left the teahouse, he saw the person who made his teeth itch with hatred.
Wei Xun changed into ordinary people's clothes, and was standing in front of a stall selling gadgets at the entrance of the teahouse, browsing casually. Jiang Sui and Bao Fu stepped out, and found someone watching him. Wei Xun raised his head, looked at Jiang Sui, before he made any expression, Jiang Sui had already walked over quickly.
There were people coming and going on the street, but there was no one around Wei Xun, where was Qin Wangshan?Where's the guard?Just let the emperor come out so casually?
What white-eyed wolf, Jiang Sui had completely forgotten, he frowned and looked around Wei Xun to make sure he was safe, before asking, "Why are you here?"
When Wei Xun heard his tone, he immediately became unhappy, "It's getting late, you said you would go back for dinner."
The implication is that since you don't come back, I have no choice but to come out to pick you up.
Jiang Sui didn't ask him how he knew he was here. He had never avoided anyone all this way. It was too easy for Wei Xun to find out where he was. He cared more about another question, "Did you come out by yourself?"
Although the tone of this sentence is not pleasant, Wei Xun can take it as a serious concern, the emperor is easy to coax, and will laugh when there is something sweet, Jiang Sui watched him twitch the corners of his mouth, and pointed to the back, "All follow. "
The Yulin Army dressed up like ordinary people. Jiang Sui looked carefully and found that there were indeed many familiar faces. Even so, Jiang Sui still felt that Wei Xun's actions were too dangerous. With a fake smile, he couldn't say a word of reproach.
After all, he came out to find himself.
Sighing slightly, Jiang Sui also smiled helplessly, "Don't do this again in the future, let's go, go back."
Wei Xun was waiting for his words. When the two left side by side, they were very close. Jiang Sui is a person who doesn't like to have physical contact with people, regardless of men and women. For the most part, Wei Xun cannot be restricted by any standards of outsiders.
So, Bao Fu, who was ignored by the two of them, just watched them getting closer and closer, getting closer and closer, their arms were touching, feeling like they were going to hold hands in the next second.
Bao Fu:? ? ?
