Chapter 56
Chapter 56
Tonight, Yu Wenjue did not come to Kunning Palace, and Jue Chenxi was slightly disappointed.Is she angry with herself, did she really make her sad today?
Seeing Yu Wenjue's unbelievable look, Jue Chenxi's heart ached. She just felt that Yu Wenjue was too impulsive to punish others.
Most of the people present were common people.It is indeed ill-considered to punish the fifth-rank officials in front of so many people.
Candles were burning on the table, and the dim light made the night seem somewhat warm.
Jue Chenxi was wearing a middle coat and sitting in front of the wooden table in the garden, arranging the ancient books sent by Yu Wenjue today.Every book is so careful.
Dignified and noble, quiet and elegant, neither rush nor slow, a pair of beautiful eyes linger in the text.
With a pair of slender hands and skin as bright as jade, he gently picked up the teacup lying flat on the table, his eyes still stayed on the collection of books in his hands.
"Sister."
Jue Chenxi raised her eyes and saw Chu Xiao walking in, forcing a smile on her tired face. "It's so late, how come Chu Xiao hasn't slept yet?"
Chu Xiao tightened her clothes, and took advantage of the opportunity to sit next to Jue Chenxi, "Seeing that the senior sister's light is still on, I want to come and see the senior sister."
Even though she was sitting on the stool next to Jue Chenxi, her eyes kept staring at Jue Chenxi's face, as if she wanted to see through her.
"If Chu Xiao has something to say, you might as well speak up." Jue Chenxi closed the ancient book in her hand and put it on the table beside her.She knew that Chu Xiao was definitely not looking for her to see if she was asleep.
Chu Xiao stared down at her hands, her fingers intertwined restlessly. "Is the senior sister's feelings for the emperor a bit out of bounds?"
"Why did you say that?" Jue Chenxi was very surprised, how could Chu Xiao say that.She clearly knows that I and the emperor are both women.
"Chu Xiao thinks that Senior Sister cares too much about the emperor's affairs." She has been with Senior Sister for a long time, and Senior Sister returned to the mansion on sixteenth. Incredible.
If you want to say Mr. Chen, it's just a simple favor.But for the emperor, there is indeed mixed love.
Jue Chenxi never thought of this level, and was a little surprised. Looking back, she seemed to really care about Yu Wenjue.
This child is so small, yet so strong.Every time she thinks of Yu Wenjue, her heart is still very soft, full of tenderness.
But she still wanted to refute "You know that the emperor..."
"But Senior Sister's performance, movements and eyes are not deceiving." Chu Xiao wanted to let Senior Sister understand her feelings for the Emperor, regardless of whether Jue Chenxi thought it through or not.
Then weigh the pros and cons.After all, it involves politics.People have to think more about the long-term consequences.
"I……"
"Senior Sister, I really like it. Senior Sister, Chu Xiao didn't come here to stop Senior Sister, but to let Senior Sister understand that on the day the task is completed, Senior Sister will continue to be the mother of this country, or go back to be a disciple of Qingcheng Mountain?"
It is difficult for other empresses to get out of the cage of the palace, but Chu Xiao thinks it is easy for the senior sister.
Mount Qingcheng also reached a certain kind of cooperation with the royal family, and she became more and more confused. She thought several times that Mount Qingcheng had nothing to do with the imperial court.As everyone knows, there are still many things that I don't understand.
"Chu Xiao, this matter is against the secular world." After being surprised, Jue Chenxi was filled with disappointment.
I have to say that Yu Wenjue is really likable, her favorite is domineering and gentle.
She always seems so careful in a detail.Child, child, how could I have such thoughts about you.
Chu Xiao guessed that Jue Chenxi would say this, but Jue Chenxi still had some pedantic thinking of a literati.You must know that this is the standard image of an official lady cultivated by a scholarly family.
"It's just that Chu Xiao thinks that in this life, it's not easy to meet people who like each other. Senior sister's liking has nothing to do with identity, age, let alone gender." Chu Xiao, who had always been cold, was actually laughing.
"Chu Xiao, it's against common sense!" Jue Chenxi pursed her lips, her tone was excited, if she was asked to say it herself, she really didn't understand what she really thought about Yu Wenjue.
"Senior sister, this is very common in my hometown." Chu Xiao fell into memory.
Jue Chenxi frowned, and looked at this foreign girl seriously.As soon as Chu Xiao came to Qingcheng Mountain, she was proficient in medical skills. The master praised her for her excellent foundation and extremely high talent. She learned many things without a teacher.As a talented woman, she was also shocked by Chu Xiao's learning speed.
"I may not be able to return to my hometown in this life. Do you believe in past and present lives, Senior Sister?"
Chu Xiao saw the doubt in Jue Chenxi's eyes, and spoke slowly.Chu Xiao thought this was incredible.
When she wakes up, she has the memory of two lifetimes.She didn't know which life she was living in.
"Past and Present?"
"In the previous life, men and women were equal in the world. There was no emperor. Our private school was called a school. Boys and girls studied in the same class. I studied clinical medicine in college, so my master praised me for my talent for studying medicine. In fact, I have studied them all.
Hmm...the liking of people there has nothing to do with gender. Although there are a small number of people, there is no such thing as going against the secular world, because the secular world seems to have accepted this fact subconsciously. "
Chu Xiao knew that she had traveled to the Jin Dynasty thousands of years ago.The story behind it?She also knows a lot.
"So amazing?" Jue Chenxi was so surprised that she couldn't speak even though she was well-informed.
"Senior Sister, why not try if you like the Emperor?" Anyway, the God and Empress did not separate in history, which perfectly interpreted the same bed for life and the same bed for death.
"Xiao Guizi, burn this set of clothes for me." Yu Wenjue went back to the bedroom, and threw the robe he took off on the ground heavily.
Jue Chenxi, who doesn't know what's good or bad, thanks to my kindness to her in every possible way, she still likes Chen Yun, and I'm so mad.
Seeing that the emperor was so angry, Xiao Guizi didn't dare to ask.I guessed in my heart that it should have something to do with the empress.Kneeling on the ground holding the clothes and running quickly.
Yu Wenjue felt sleepy while sitting at the desk, so he simply kicked off his small cloth shoes and put his legs crossed on the chair.
I have nothing to do, don't know what to do, it seems that I haven't been alone for a long time.
"Little Guizi!"
"The servant is here, the servant is here." Xiao Guizi had just finished disposing of the clothes, when he heard Yu Wenjue calling him, and hurried over.
"Xiao Guizi, clean up and accompany me out of the palace." Yu Wenjue was too restless, she felt that as soon as she stopped, she was going to think about Chen Xi.I can't miss her, I have to go out to relax.
"Your Majesty, but the gates of the palace are closed now..." Xiao Guizi looked at the sky.After all, the little emperor never played his cards according to the routine.
Yu Wenjue became angry, "That won't work, I'm the emperor, if I say open the door, he has to open the door for me."
Little Guizi is troubled, this little emperor is like this, moody, chatting with you one second and laughing at you, the next second he will turn his face and deny anyone. "Yes, yes, Your Majesty."
"Go get ready." Yu Wenjue crossed his legs.Stretched.
"Yes."
Xiao Guizi put on a straw hat and cape for Yu Wenjue. The little ancestor was not in good health, so he was afraid that something would happen to the little ancestor.
Yu Wenjuetai looked at the full moon hanging in the sky. "Xiao Guizi, is it almost winter?"
"Back to the emperor, it's already autumn."
"No wonder the leaves are turning yellow. Am I almost seventeen?"
Yu Wenjue thought that he had been married for almost a year.Time passed pretty fast.
Xiao Guizi gently pushed the door open, and a gust of cool wind patted her face. "Yes, the emperor is almost seventeen years old, and it will be Yong'an's sixteenth year soon."
Yu Wenjue tightened the cloak on his body, walked slowly in the deep palace shrouded in darkness, feeling a little lost, "I was enthroned at the age of four, and it has been 13 years now, at what age did Xiao Guizi enter the palace?"
Xiao Guizi pondered for a moment before saying, "Back to the emperor, the slave entered the palace at the age of eight, and has served the emperor for 14 years."
Xiao Guizi's master was the chief eunuch who was next to the first emperor. He entered the palace to serve the crown prince. Later, after his master passed away, he mainly served Yu Wenjue, who was already the emperor. Although he is not the chief eunuch now, he is The celebrity around the emperor.Because the chief eunuch belongs to the regent, Yu Wenjue seldom summoned him.
"It's been a long time. My daily life is in samsara. But after the queen came, I feel that life is really good." Yu Wenjue sighed.
"The empress takes care of the emperor in everything, and the slaves see it." Xiao Guizi guessed in his heart that the little emperor was in a low mood today, it seemed that it was really because of the empress.It was rare for him to see the emperor so gloomy.
"Xiao Guizi, let them open the side door for me." Yu Wenjue wanted to leave the palace for a walk.Recently, she also refused to go to court due to illness, but the regent was happy instead.
Xiao Guizi told the guard a few words, and the guard didn't hesitate, and immediately gave Yu Wenjue a tip.
Even in the evening, the outside of the palace is brightly lit, busy with traffic, peddlers hawking endlessly, and the common people walk together in groups of three or five.How lively.It formed a big contrast with the lifeless palace.
"That's great." Yu Wenjue had mixed feelings.She is happy that the people live and work in peace and contentment, but she is worried that there are only two masters in the harem, she and Jue Chenxi, and it is extremely deserted.The heart is even more desolate.She felt so lonely at the moment.
"Master, there are too many people, please slow down." Xiao Guizi was afraid that someone would spoil this noble person.
Yu Wenjue nodded, but still walked through the crowd.
"Master, this night market is no less than during the day. You can find everything you need." Xiao Guizi knew that Yu Wenjue liked to go out of the palace during the day to "do evil" and never went out at night.
"Unexpectedly, the night is so lively."
"Master, I saw that you didn't eat at night. Do you want to try the street?"
How can folk food be served on Yu Wenjue's table, but Yu Wenjue is different, and in private, Xiao Guizi brought her a lot of folk delicious things.
Yu Wenjue thought that he just went off to get angry with Jue Chenxi today, and when he came back at night, he didn't eat, so he stayed in the bedroom.Only then nodded.
"Master, look at this sweet-scented osmanthus cake. It's a masterpiece. There are countless people queuing up every day, but they only sell it for one morning every day, and there will be no more when it's sold out." Xiao Guizi praised with her thumbs up.
Looking in the direction Xiao Guizi pointed, the shop is closed, but the two sides of the shop are very lively, and the owner of this shop really has a personality, "Oh? It's so delicious? Come and try it with me tomorrow, I'd rather Look how delicious it is."
"Yes, sir."
"What is this? Rice cake?" Yu Wenjue stopped at a street stall.The white and tender things in the pot caught my eye.
