Chapter 62
[most of the dishes on the table are spicy and sour, which are seasonings brought from the palace. I didn't have a chance to make them before. Now, Duan Yao is the only one left.
Chu Yuan took a chopstick fish for him and said, "can you still like it?"
"Well." Duan Yao nodded, "it's better to cook than the cook in the southwest."
Chuyuan Chuyuan laughed: "this was originally the cook of the southwest mansion. Later, he came to the king's city to open a restaurant with my son. After eating twice, I felt that the taste was not bad. This time I came to Beixing palace, I took him with me. You just like it."
Duan Yao nods and continues to eat in a muffled voice. She says that her brother is also unlucky. She brings him a cook, but she doesn't even have a meal.
Seeing that he was silent, Chu Yuan did not speak any more until he drank the last soup. Then he said, "do you want some snacks?"
"No, no more." Duan Yao waved her hands and rolled her belly round.
Chu Yuan said with a smile: "the fruit is really the age of long body."
Duan Yao wiped his mouth, thinking that even if he said it tactfully, he could eat it.
Chu Yuan ordered Si Xi to make tea, but he didn't want to let people go.
Duan Yao is not surprised at this. After all, the previous play was too tight, and the performance was rather rough. It may be possible to cheat others, but his sister-in-law is the emperor, so he can't see the ghost.
Sure enough, before a cup of tea was cool, Chu Yuan said, "has the white eyebrow fairy ever been to the southwest mansion before?"
Duan Yao shook his head: "no, my brother and I have never seen this man before. Only when my master mentioned that he was young, he went to sea to avenge others and met him by mistake."
"Have a good relationship with the southern predecessors?" Chu Yuan asked again.
"It's not very good. If it's really good, master will often mention it." Duan Yao said, "but I haven't seen a few times in total. It should not be bad. It's just a nodding acquaintance."
"Why does he have tianchensha?" Chu Yuan continued, "if there is one, why don't you take it out earlier, you have to wait until now?"
"It's not clear. The master didn't elaborate." Duan Yao said, "in recent years, the southwest government sent many people to Donghai, and wrote several letters to the white eyebrow fairy. However, none of the replies were received. The master thought that he had driven the crane to the west, but he didn't expect to see him in this Yunde city."
"To send Tianchen sand?" Chu Yuan asked.
Duan Yao said: "in order to make a deal with Shifu, but what was the content of the transaction, Shifu refused to talk about it all the time. He said that he would go to the East China Sea in person after he recovered
"Well." Chu Yuan nodded slightly. He still had some doubts in his heart, but he couldn't tell what was unreasonable about the matter. It is the most common thing for people in the river and lake to trade with each other. Since he is an overseas fairy, it is not strange that there will be Tianchen sand. It seems that everything can be said.
Duan Yao continued: "it's just going back to the southwest mansion to heal. My brother doesn't want to see the emperor so worried about him. He should relax his heart."
Chu Yuan returned to his senses and said with a smile, "I want you to comfort me in turn."
Duan Yao clenched his fist: "my brother asked me to take care of the emperor for him before he left. He also said that if those old ministers were not smart enough to remonstrate with trivial matters, they would be honest if they put on sacks and beat them up
Chu Yuan praised and nodded: "what you said is very true."
Skipping over the tianchensha affair, the topic will be much easier. The two chatted about their daily life in the room, telling anecdotes about the court and the Wulin. After chatting for nearly an hour, Duan Yao just got up to leave. After drinking the last cup of tea, Chu Yuan felt a lot more relaxed. Although he was not completely relieved, he also felt that things might not be as bad as he imagined. The so-called care is chaotic, and he is a beloved. Sometimes he will think too much.
"The emperor." Four Xi father-in-law reminds at the door, "it's late at night, it's time to go back to the bedroom."
Chu Yuan stood up and walked as he said, "tell me to go down and let the kitchen do more nourishing meals tomorrow. Yao'er is practicing martial arts recently. Don't be hungry."
"Yes." Four Xi laughed and nodded. Although the king of Southwest had gone, he had a little prince in his heart. After eating a meal together, the emperor's face was much better. Want to come tomorrow, if there are adults to see, into the imperial study will not tremble.
The city of Yunde is quiet, and the watchman is passing by with a clapper and humming a tune.
After the ghost has been removed, the city has returned to its former tranquility and peace, and the emperor is in the city. The streets are full of patrols by the royal guards, and as safe as you want to be. When passing through a lane, the watchman put down his belongings and wanted to find a quiet place to get rid of it. However, he untied his belt at the root of the wall. A white shadow flashed across the wall, which was fleeting.
"Help The watchman was so scared that he felt the heat flow through his legs.
It happened that there were royal guards passing by. When they heard this, they immediately came with torches in their hands. The watchman was sitting in the corner of the wall, holding his head in his arms, and he did not know what he was barking at. The stench around him was very high.
"Second, second." The local officer in charge of leading the team pushed him forward, "what's wrong with you, or did you encounter robbery?"
The watchman looked up trembling.Around a circle of officers and soldiers, all in wonder, looking at him.
"No, no ghosts." The watchman said incoherently, "I was just here and saw a white shadow."
"There's nothing wrong with you. I think you've been scared out of order." The servant pulled him up and said, "I'm blind."
The watchman shook his head and it took him a long time to recover. This just feel legs cold, look down, bashful almost into the ground seam.
"All right, all right, go back quickly." The servant picked up the gong on the ground and gave it to him, "don't make any more trouble next time." Just now that voice crying for help, not only scared him to pee his pants, he was also scared enough.
The watchman's face turned red. After giving thanks to all the people, he crawled back home. His heart said that he would not be able to go out again for half a month. He did not know what would be damaged by his broken mouth. The imperial army only regarded it as a daze to him, and did not take it to heart. Until all the people left, not far away from a big tree, just jumped down a rickety figure, hobbled toward the gate alone. Taking advantage of the time when the guards hand over the sentry, the gecko generally sticks tightly to the wall, and then turns over the city.
A carriage was standing in the wilderness. The shadow bent down to get in and said in a hoarse voice, "go to Guanhai city."
The coachman answered and drove south.
Guanhai City, a town in the south of Chu state, is one of the most important ports. Every day, the wharf is full of merchant ships from all over the world, and the flags are densely packed. Whether it is the merchants going to Nanyang or foreign countries entering the state of Chu, it is the most convenient way to go through Guanhai.
The night is hidden, the sun rises in the East, and in a flash it is a new day.
Chu Yuan was in the imperial study. After reading a few folded pieces, father-in-law Sixi came to report that there was a letter from the tracing palace.
Chu Yuan was happy.
Four Xi's father-in-law presented his hands and said, "there is also a cart of Sichuan's specialty. It is said that it will be sent to the palace later. It is selected by Mr. Shen himself."
Chu Yuan nodded, opened fire paint seal and took out the letter, which was written by Qin Shaoyu. He said that he had received a reply from Nanhai. He did not know where there was tianchensha, but he could try to find it.
"…… The emperor? " See him for a long time did not speak, four Xi in the aside voice to remind.
Chu Yuan said: "go to prepare some rare things and send them back to the pursuit palace."
"Yes." Four Xi father-in-law nods to retreat. Chu Yuan read the letter again and frowned slightly. The ghost hand doctor is Qin Shaoyu's master. In recent years, he has been living in seclusion in the South China Sea Island. He is one of the best doctors in the world. Even Ye Jin thinks he is inferior to him. If even he doesn't know what tianchensha is, it is really hard to find in the world.
After leaning on the Dragon chair for a while, Chu Yuan wrote a new letter again, which was very exciting. In the past, Yueshan villa and Zhuying palace sent one to each other.
Duan Yao is still learning from the old man how to crack the burning star Bureau. He goes out early and returns late. He often practices at night. Chu Yuan asked Sixi to go down and stay in the northern palace for half a month, and then set out to return to the king's city.
"Look at you, you have to frown." Liu Dajiong said, "no matter whether he is in Wangcheng or Yunde City, the emperor should deal with a lot of political affairs. What's the difference?"
"Do you care if I frown?" Tao Rende was made dizzy by him.
Liu Dajiong said: "naturally, I don't care if you frown. But according to the usual habit, when you finish frowning, you have to remonstrate. I can remind you that our emperor is not in a good mood recently, so you should take it easy."
Tao Rende:.... "
"Just say you didn't get lucky." Liu Dajiong dragged him to go out, "live half a month more, eat fire."
Tao Rende was dragged by him, still unable to show his brow.
It's no harm to live half a month longer. However, the emperor seems to be abnormal recently, but he refuses to say anything, which makes people feel that something is going to happen.
This feeling of anxiety is really bad.
"The emperor." "Four Xi said," it seems that today's little prince wants to practice Kung Fu for a while. It's not over yet. Can the emperor eat first? "
"I'm not hungry. I'll wait for Yao'er." Chu Yuan dropped the letter in his hand, "let's go, go to the prison first."
Four Xi father-in-law does not understand: "go to prison?"
"There are still criminals there." Chu Yuan said, "originally I wanted to go back to the King City to deal with it. But since I want to stay here for half a month, I have nothing to do, so it's OK to try first."
After he said this, Sixi suddenly remembered that there was a concubine named Cui Gu who had killed Yu Shu, the magistrate of Cangnan County, who had not been brought to trial.
The brazier at the gate of the prison was blazing, and the head of the prison was taking a nap. He did not expect that Chu Yuan would come now. He was so flustered that he knelt on the ground: "see the emperor."
"No gift." Chu Yuan ordered, "unlock the lock, I want to go in and have a look."
