Yutai Bi

Chapter 249
In autumn, the sky is high and the clouds are light, the blue sky is like washing, and the forests are all dyed.Standing on a high place and looking far away, you can have a panoramic view of Longzhou City.Du Yansui watched a group of people leave the city gate, set foot on the official road, and gallop towards this direction, unconsciously smiled again.

When he left Chang'an, he left Hei Qi in the mansion and came with Mantou and Jing Chu.He called Jing Chu and Mantou, got on his horse, and walked down the mountain.

Running up the official road, he stopped his horse and waited with a smile on his face.

Half an hour later, the pedestrian appeared before his eyes.

Du Yansui looked at King Teng's cloak blown up by the wind, and waved: "My lord, you are here!"

King Teng ran up to him in a blink of an eye, holding the whip in his hand and whipping it without thinking.

Du Yansui lowered her head, and the whistling wind from the whip passed over her head.He sat up straight and said with a smile, "Don't be annoyed!"

How many years has it been since you were angry like this?The sun shone from Du Yansui's side, and King Teng squinted his eyes slightly. Years of nourishing Qi allowed him to calm down again in a few breaths.

In the wind, there was the faint sound of hoes and iron picks hammering into the rocks in the mountains.What's the use of being angry now?
He looked at Du Yansui.She was wearing a long purple gown with round collar and arrow sleeves, with a round neck and arrow sleeves, a gleaming whitebait bag around her waist, and a shawl inlaid with white jade on her head.With handsome features, he looks like a rich man.

That's right, he was no longer the bodyguard who stood upright with his hands down and did things for him wholeheartedly.

King Teng sighed and ordered: "You stay here."

He steered the horse, got off the official road, and walked towards the open space beside him.

There was a slow beeping sound behind him, and he didn't need to turn his head to know that Du Yansui was following.

"Is the grass on Leyou Plain withered and yellow?" Teng Wang murmured.

Du Yansui glanced at the still green weeds on the river beach, and hummed: "So this is a good place. It's evergreen all year round, and the flowers are always in bloom. The place chosen by the prince is very suitable for retirement."

Pension...he is seven years older than him.He is already 28, approaching his thirties.He is only 21 years old, like the rising sun in the east.

Prince Teng laughed angrily: "How much money did you give the old Taoist?"

"Oh, my lord, you know that the Duke's Mansion is just empty. After attacking the noble, the emperor allocated tens of thousands of taels, and I didn't even have the heart to build the yamen, so I can save money by paying for it. Last year, thanks to the members of the Brocade Pavilion you sent me, otherwise I went to the south of the Yangtze River to fight the rebellion. Sanniang married my sister and collected the dowry, so the mansion should drink gruel to spend the day. I have money to buy Yuan Tianshi." Du Yansui replied with a playful smile.

The corners of King Teng's mouth twitched: "Since you have won the title, you will be rewarded with land and silver, and there is no need to send money to the Brocade Pavilion."

Du Yansui smiled and said: "I was poor and panicked back then. Seeing Sanniang take over the management, there were only forty taels of silver in the money box. I couldn't bear to let her suffer and worry. The prince is not an outsider, so don't, I'm afraid it will hurt your love for Sanniang." Mother has a loving heart."

"It's not love. It's love. This king is in love with her." Teng Wang said solemnly.

Du Yansui's face was full of sympathy: "Why do you always love...a woman who doesn't love you? It's so cruel to blame yourself!"

The corner of Teng Wang's mouth curled up: "This king has high vision! You are not in the light of this king. Otherwise, how would Ziyi know you?"

"My lord, you always call my daughter-in-law's boudoir name, how can you call me that?" Du Yansui sighed and said, "I returned to Beijing to restore my identity. I should have paid you back. Tell the truth , Cui family, I will definitely step on it. So I help you and Wu Zhaoyi. I know that you are playing a big game of chess. I am just one of your pawns. But, the emperor is playing against you, I seem to be a pawn in his hand too. I am very miserable. I have brought back the title, and I can give my ancestors an explanation. I just want to spend a leisurely life with Sanniang. Please let us go!"

"Shall I let you off?" King Teng suddenly turned his head, pointing his whip at the mountain, "You're trying to kill me!"

Du Yansui said softly: "I'm helping you, my lord. Once the dragon's breath is broken, the emperor will feel more at ease with you. The navy army hidden in the Jiangzhou runs around to earn money when you are free, and the river bandits and pirates can't eat it." Move, how good it is."

He took out a kit from his arms and threw it to King Teng: "Look, my lord, is there a mistake in the drawing? This is the only one, and there is no other rubbings. The property saved by the lord can live a comfortable life in Longzhou City for the rest of his life. To build Datang Jiangshan into one's own back garden, with little money and few people, it is not enough."

King Teng squeezed the kit tightly.The eyes of the two met, and they saw the murderous look in each other's eyes.

"Take care, this king is a widow, I won't dislike Ziyi as a widow." Teng Wang said lightly.

Du Yansui smiled slightly: "Wu Zhaoyi re-entered the palace. He felt that the emperor's Mei character was too soft, so he created a name for himself Zhao. It means the sun and the moon travel in the sky. The prince must remember that women are the most fickle, especially She is a woman who can be feared by the late emperor."

King Teng looked into the distance in silence.Du Yansui also smiled, admiring the autumn scenery under the sun.

"Why?" After a long time, King Teng finally broke the silence.

Du Yansui said seriously: "Since I left you and returned to Chang'an, in your heart, I am a dead person. I haven't finished playing chess yet, so it's useless to keep me. The emperor doesn't want to kill me. I thought about it , I had to help him."

King Teng smiled: "I didn't expect this king to work hard to change his impression of you, and still underestimate you."

Du Yansui turned her head to look at him: "If one day, I die at your hands. Don't embarrass Sanniang. She likes you, and if she doesn't like you, let her go. I've finished talking, and I want to Whatever I do, I'll follow."

He turned his horse's head and galloped towards the official road.

King Teng watched him and his guards disappear on the mountain road, and said with a blunt smile, "You betrayed me first, why should I be soft-hearted?"

Du Jianjia of the second room is married.The big house's Jing Wan also successfully married Li Shangzhi.Duke Yuchi's mansion reported that Cen Siniang had given birth to a son.

The Zou family also sent people to report the good news that Yan Wan was pregnant.

One happy event after another.

With filial piety, Cen Sanniang did not participate in these happy events, but prepared gifts one by one and asked people to send them.

When Du Yansui returned to Chang'an, the weather had turned cold.

In late autumn, the old lady caught a cold and fell ill.

The couple ignored tenderness and stayed by the old lady's bed.

Cen Sanniang lived in the Zhengqi Hall and stayed with the old lady day and night.

The first rainstorm of early winter hit.The leaves on the trees were wilted and yellow, blown by the cold wind and rain, swirling and falling all over the street.Covered with rain and grout, a sense of desolation emerges spontaneously.

The first mansion newspaper from the west was sent to the palace in the rainstorm.

The Zhengxi Army marched into the vast grassland in one go, and started a war with the Western Turks.

After the army set off, Gaozong went to the Queen's Palace every month as if to sit and sit.Today I got the report of the start of the war. After Gao Zong reviewed the memorial, I became double shadows when reading the words, and my head hurt like a cramp.

"Go...to the Queen's Palace." Gaozong temporarily changed his mind.

He didn't like the queen's ladylike demeanor.But he likes the maids who serve the queen very much.That hand massage effort relieves headaches and is comfortable.

It was late at night, the emperor didn't want to wake up the queen, he just wanted to lie on the warm kang and rest comfortably after being massaged by the maid.Emperor Gaozong didn't send anyone to communicate, and Yujia arrived at the queen's bedroom silently in the rain.

The earth dragon has been burned in the palace.As soon as he entered the main hall, a gust of hot air rushed towards his face. Gaozong wearily waved his hand to get the maids to stand up, and asked casually, "Has the queen rested?"

The nanny replied in a low voice: "Your Majesty knows that Sheng Jia is coming, and she has already got up to do her makeup."

Gaozong hummed and went to the inner hall.

A servant suddenly ran up from the corner of the corridor, but was too late to stop, and almost bumped into Gaozong.He knelt down in a panic: "The villain bumped into Yujia, the villain deserves to die!"

Across the corridor, Gaozong saw that the main hall opposite was brightly lit, and the empress came out surrounded by her servants and maids.He said disapprovingly, "Don't be so rash in doing things."

"Yes."

Gaozong had a gentle temperament and was extremely tolerant towards the people in the palace.After saying a word, he walked along the corridor.

The waiter knelt on the ground, his body trembling.

Eunuch Hu glanced at him, his pupils shrank, and he winked at the servant behind him.Continue to follow behind the emperor with his head down.

Under the light, the empress's Qingmei Juelun had the color of sleepiness, and Qingshui Furong was dyed with rouge, which was extraordinarily beautiful.

Gaozong's heart moved, and he couldn't help but think of when the queen first married.He reached out to help the queen up.

Probably because he hadn't received Gaozong's pity for a long time, the queen shrank her hands subconsciously, and returned to her cold look: "Why is the emperor coming so late?"

The harem is the emperor's harem.Mammy winked anxiously at the queen.

"Go in." Gaozong did not answer, and stepped into the inner hall.Wearily sat on the kang head.

A maid stepped forward to wait for him to take off his shoes.

Gaozong lay down, and seeing the queen standing like a wooden stake, her chin slightly raised, her mouth tightly pressed, she couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.It was late at night, and he was also tired, too lazy to talk, pointing to a maid beside her and said: "Come and press my head."

The court lady glanced at the queen, and said yes tremblingly.Rolling up his sleeves and cleaning his hands, he stepped forward and gently placed his fingers on the emperor's forehead, finding the right acupuncture points and pressing them.

The queen didn't sit down, and the whole room stood in the hall calmly.

After an unknown amount of time, the emperor gradually heard the sound of snoring, and the nanny coughed lightly.

The maid quickly raised her eyes and left slowly.

Everyone bowed to the queen and quietly retreated.
