Chapter 532

Beijing · Drizzle

The leaves were slanted by the drizzle, making a rustling sound. Ye Buhui, who was sitting in front of the window and drinking tea with the guests, couldn't help but look out.

"The Beijing Women's Chess Club is actually pretty good, you can consider it."

Zhou Yao, who was sitting opposite her, had a smile on her face, spoke softly, stroked the corner of her skirt, and finished explaining her intention of coming. Seeing that Ye Buhui didn't answer immediately, she followed her gaze to Yujing.

She came here this time to recruit people from the Beijing Women's Chess Club.

This women's chess club is said to be a chess club, but in fact it is a social place for officials' daughters and young ladies who make friends through chess. Because Zhou Yao is so good at playing chess, it was just a name in the past, and she has never been there a few times. .

Ye Buhui is good at chess, Zhou Yao knows this, but because the defense of men and women is valued by people in the capital again, it is not good for a woman like Ye Buhui who likes to play chess to go to the place where men gather, at least during this period. Time to hide from the limelight.

Joining this women's chess club, at least it can be better than nothing, so that Ye Buhui has a place to relieve boredom in his spare time.

Of course, after saying this, Zhou Yao also thoughtfully said to Ye Buhui: "However, you don't have to force yourself, if you don't want to go, forget it."

"Although because of Lin Yuqing's incident, it is a bit troublesome for women in the capital to go in and out, but now they have relaxed again. I think that after a few months, they may be able to return to normal. It doesn't have to be like this. See you and me It’s not easy on one side.”

Just as she was speaking, her face, which was still smiling slightly, changed, and she opened her eyes to look at one place, but when Ye Buhui looked over, she had returned to normal.

"I don't regret it, I've been bothering you for so long today, I should go back."

When Ye Buhui said that he would think about it, Zhou Yao looked at the sky and stood up, walked out, and said with a smile: "If you plan to join the chess club, you can send someone to my house to tell you."

"In such a hurry? Why don't we leave after eating?" Ye Buhui hurriedly tried to persuade him to stay.

Zhou Yao shook her head: "My mother is always worried, as a daughter, it's not good for her to worry."

Speaking of this, Ye Buhui naturally couldn't stay any longer. She was very grateful to Zhou Yao for thinking about herself in such matters as the chess club. She sent Zhou Yao out of the gate and watched her take the maid to the cow The cart, the bullock cart went far away, and then turned around and asked people to close the door.

Seeing that the door was about to be closed, Mrs. Sun happened to bring someone back with brisk hands and feet, and hurriedly yelled, Ye Buhui smiled: "Bought it back?"

"Yes, a stone of rice. My wife likes to eat fish. I bought a sea fish and cut a catty of meat."

The little maid came out and hugged the baby, looking a little timid, but the baby was not afraid, showing a big smile, and was still hugging.

The person who brought them in brought the goods in, and only then left the door. Suddenly, Sun heard the sound of a piano, which reached her heart, and she was immediately fascinated by it.

Not only Sun, but the servants and maids in the courtyard, one by one, were all stunned, stopped what they were busy with, and listened attentively.

"The sound of the piano? It sounds familiar!" Ye Buhui couldn't help but startled, and frowned.

The bullock cart that had just left Su Zhai, the wheels ran over the ground, although it was bumpy, but Zhou Yao didn't seem to care about it at all, her slender jade fingers didn't stop at all, and bursts of piano sounds came from inside the bullock cart, not only Let the people nearby hear it, as if there is a wind blowing the sound of the piano, it reaches the sky and passes by everyone's ears.

Everyone in the entire capital actually heard the wonderful sound of the piano at this moment, and many people were fascinated by it, smiling and forgetting what they were doing.

Pedestrians stopped, and both parties who were buying and selling at the street stalls also stopped, smiling, only listening to the sound of the piano.

None of these people knew that they could hear the sound of the zither, and everyone in the capital could hear it at this moment. It was just the sound of a zither, which actually covered the entire capital.

Even in some places outside the city, the sound of the piano could be faintly heard.

Located in a manor in Nanbo Mansion outside Beijing, in the study, a refined man around 40 years old was writing a letter, when he was about to write, he heard the sound of the zither.

"This..." Impressively, it was Master Xie who had hidden his whereabouts several times and only watched the play. Hearing the sound of the piano, he flicked his pen and ink, staining a large area, and he did not clean it up, showing a complicated expression.

Putting down the pen, he pulled up his sleeve violently, and saw bloodstains on his arm, one of which disappeared slowly under his gaze, and disappeared.

There was no abnormality, but after the bloodstains disappeared, there were some subtle changes in this face, which is not considered aging, and the skin seemed to become firmer in an instant with some youthful radiance. smooth.

"Did another one of my three corpses die?" Master Xie, who looked ten years younger and looked like he was only about 30 years old, murmured in a low voice.

Capital·Imperial Palace

A phoenix chariot was moving forward, except for a few eunuchs carrying the phoenix chariot, there were palace officials leading the way in front, and eunuchs followed behind and on both sides. When encountering guards on the road, all of them did not dare to lift their heads and knelt on one knee Bow your head and salute on both sides.

Even the few concubines who were favored in the past would not dare to put on such a formation when they were the most favored, but for the Empress of the Central Palace, it was an ordinary trip.

It wasn't until seeing the mighty dozens of people passing by, and seeing people on both sides of the phoenix chariot who immediately knelt down, that they got up with gossip on their faces.

The empress who hadn't stepped out of the gate of her palace for more than ten years, unexpectedly came out?

And looking at the direction of this trip, is it going to the imperial study where His Majesty is?

This is really surprising.

In the imperial study room, the emperor was dressed in bright yellow and was leaning on the dragon chair, rubbing the space between his brows, and took a sip of the ginseng tea on the side before continuing to review the memorial.

Every day there will be memorials sent from all directions, and the case will be piled up to the brim.

Each of the memorials is densely written. At first glance, you can still see clearly, but after reading for a long time, your eyes begin to blur.

The emperor moved closer to the memorial in his hand, looked carefully, then frowned, picked up a pen to review it, and when he finally finished reviewing the memorial and threw it aside, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Hey, do you think I'm really old? I'm dazzled from reading the memorial."

It was Eunuch Zhao who served him. The emperor trusted him very much, and he rarely concealed the fact that he was aging in front of him. At this moment, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Eunuch Zhao hurriedly said with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty, you have a lot of things to do every day. You have to review the memorial for several hours every day. That is, Your Majesty, if you were someone else, you would not be able to hold on to reading books for so long. .”

The emperor glanced at him: "You old slave, you are becoming more and more glib."

But after hearing this, I felt a little better.

Time is probably a very fair thing for everyone. Even the rich king of a country will inevitably feel panic when aging comes, because he feels that his body is slowly aging and gradually decaying. The feeling is really not wonderful.

"Your Majesty, the empress is here, and she said she made some snacks by herself."
