Qingchuan History

Chapter 197
Gu Xinglang looked at the rows of tall phoenix trees outside the hall, there was no wind blowing, no leaves falling, and his expression at this moment was more solemn and quiet than the autumn outside the door.

"You haven't seen her, and the saluting posture is not in place. You just sit down when you are given a seat, and you speak without restraint. Even the officials of various countries with one person under one person and over ten thousand people dare not act like this."

Di Yan nodded three times: "Isn't it? Your Majesty sees it all, why—"

"I'm afraid she didn't look like this on purpose, she was obviously spoiled. It is said that Murong Xun obeyed her, but she lived in Jingshuiwu and never attended the early court, and rarely participated in the discussions of officials," he said. With a snort, "It's so presumptuous that even the monarch doesn't care, who dares to criticize? These etiquettes and rules are probably as she likes, she likes to learn or not."

Diyan felt that it was justified, and she was even more dissatisfied: "This is not Wei Palace, it is so unreasonable to go back to Cangwu and go on an envoy to other countries. Is she here to make friends or to provoke?"

Gu Xinglang glanced at him, "What is she here for, do you still need to discuss it?"

Di Yan was taken aback, a little embarrassed: "Yes. I'm confused."

"How about the Boiled Rain Palace?"

"Yes, five days ago, I personally delivered the decree, clearly informing Mrs. Jin that the Wei Kingdom Mission is coming, and please prepare well. Speaking of which, the emperor has not issued a foot restraint order, and this purpose is to remind her Lift the ban on your own. But as of the report received this morning, Mrs. Jin has never stepped out of the Boiled Rain Palace."

"She's calmed down this time. It's a lesson for a child."

Diyan almost rolled her eyes, she thought to herself that you are really kind, no matter friend or foe, you look forward to the improvement of others.

"Where's her maid, Xiwu? Didn't come out for a stroll?"

"No. Except for a few palace people who are responsible for picking up and delivering daily expenses, there are very few people coming in and out these days."

At this juncture, it would be a good thing if Chunfeng could make a fuss.It's a pity that the girl was abnormal after returning from the Northern Territory, and she was obediently locked up in the Linghua Hall for these days, and she didn't go to the Boiled Rain Hall to vent her anger and find fault.

He originally wanted to remind her that if she was going to scold someone, don't mention Auntie's death.

It's he who thinks too much.

Thinking of this, he shook his head in his heart, and said for a while, "What about her? Did you go out today?"

Diyan is now so familiar with the word "she" in this tone, tone, and volume that she will never make a mistake in her judgment, and immediately replied: "No."

She is self-conscious.I told her that Jing Tingge was coming that night, but she didn't respond.Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for three days.

But Diyan didn't finish answering:

"Shortly after lunch, Yunxi came over and said that the Wei Kingdom Mission arrived today and asked if your majesty has any orders."

"what do you say?"

Diyan blinked, and said uncertainly: "Weichen, you didn't say anything. Your Majesty, you didn't give orders." He glanced at Gu Xinglang cautiously, "No?"

Indeed not.But he was inexplicably speechless, and then he felt uncomfortable sitting here, so he stood up and stretched his arms and said:

"Go to Zhexue Palace."

The silence in Zhexue Hall was as usual.The person I want to see is not sleeping.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw her leaning on a soft chair not far from the two flower trees on the west side. She was wearing a lake-colored dress that was pale white, and her small face was paler than the dress. She was looking at the wall. The yellow leaves drifting in from outside were in a trance.

That's all.I thought you were really calm.

There was a rustling sound of trampling on the crisp sycamore leaves, Ruan Xueyin heard it, thought it was Yunxi or Tangli, and didn't care.Yunxi was not in the courtyard, and Tangli didn't make a sound when she got the signal, so she wasn't fascinated by the out-of-the-box question until she had already walked up to her.

"You didn't sleep?"

Ask knowingly.

She took two breaths to recover her slack brain power, and raised her head to answer: "Thinking that the emperor may come, or that there may be a will to come, I can't sleep well, so I don't sleep at all." While talking, she got up and saluted , "Your Majesty is safe."

Unless she is alone, whenever there is a third person present, she is always courteous.

"Your blessing is much better than your junior sister."

Ruan Xueyin was startled, and just about to respond, she suddenly felt something was wrong: Jing Tingge is an envoy, and when entering the Mingluan Hall, you have to bow three times and knock nine times, what is it, blessing?
Di Yantangli was in the room, she couldn't ask directly, she just looked at him thoughtfully.Gu Xinglang understood, ordered "don't follow in", took her left hand and walked into the hall.

He took her hand directly.The warm and dry right hand circled the slightly cool left hand in the palm.Ruan Xueyin didn't react at first, she was taken aback after taking two steps, and subconsciously pulled away, but saw that he was calm and calm, taking it for granted, as if he didn't realize anything was wrong.

What's going on here?
Diyan and Tangli were right behind her, she couldn't move too much, and Gu Xinglang held her hand without moving——

Failed to draw.

He had no choice but to let the five fingers of his left hand be held by him seemingly casually, the coolness gradually dissipated, and the warmth and dryness soaked in the fingertips was like the autumn wind gently sweeping the fallen leaves.

The autumn wind in "Autumn Wind Ci".Long-term lovesickness is long-term lovesickness, short-term lovesickness is endless.

A word of those words floated in my mind, the person had already been brought into the main hall, and the other party withdrew his hand when he reached the tea table.The two sat down facing each other, and Ruan Xueyin felt that she was still seated, so she listened to the other party:
"You junior sister, you are not only showing your sharpness, but you are showing your teeth and claws in front of no one."

He didn't sit still at all, but after hearing this, it took him two more moments to sit still.After a little understanding of these two adjectives, she felt that they were a bit serious, especially the four characters of fangs and claws——

Not so.

"What did she say?" She paused for a moment and said again, "I don't even think about etiquette."

The second half of the sentence is naturally guessed based on the sentence in the previous court.In the five years since Jing Tingge went to Cangwu, she didn't really understand her changes, but it is very possible that the smooth sailing and invincible situation, given the girl's temper when she went down the mountain, became so severe that she barked her teeth and claws.

However, Gu Xinglang was not in a hurry, he raised his hand to get the green porcelain teapot on the table, halfway up it, he suddenly said:
"In this huge Qi Palace, I can only serve tea with you."

Ruan Xueyin was taken aback, "Then put it down, I'll do it."

Saying so, he didn't stretch out his hand.

Gu Xinglang was noncommittal, carried the teapot to his front and slowly poured half a cup, then said leisurely:
"People's temperaments are born out of habit. I heard that Murong Xun was accustomed to her, but I never thought that she was so accustomed to her. The wonderful thing is that she didn't know how to restrain herself when she came to Qi Palace. She tacitly agreed that everyone in the world would do it for various reasons. Give in to her."

Ruan Xueyin is not sure whether this discussion about "habit" also alludes to herself——

Otherwise, he has been pouring tea by himself for more than half a year, why did he suddenly attack him just now?And she seems to have offered to pour tea for him too, right?Once or twice?

"So did your majesty punish you?" Perhaps because she didn't take a nap, her thoughts were scattered, and she managed to concentrate and keep up with the progress of the conversation.

"She is arrogant and shameless, and her monarch will take care of her. I am not the instigator, and I don't need to worry about her for too long. Why should I be as knowledgeable as her? I have already sent him back to the Tongrong Hall." He took half a sip of tea, still carelessly, and said very casually :
"Would you like to see her?"

When the ending sound fell, he raised his eyes calmly, only half of his eyes were raised, but they were burning like eternal night stars.

Ruan Xueyin was stunned again, and immediately saw the dormant starlight in the depths of her pupils, and said calmly, "You can see it or not."
