Only later did Xu Jiao know what Yu Ye used to torment her that time.
The tricks and gadgets that can only be seen in Hualou are commonly known as sheep eye circles.
But at that time, her senses and emotions were dominated by Yu Ye, and she didn't have time to think about these corners and corners. She only remembered that she was a little unbearable by Yu Ye in the end, and she said a lot of ordinary things according to her mind. I can't say what it is, I can't remember exactly what it is, only the bone-eating pleasure imprinted in my mind remains.
"Your Highness?"
The palace servants who were waiting on the side saw that she had not responded to the enthronement ritual system drafted by the Ministry of Rites for a long time.
Xu Jiao came back to her senses—
Only then did she realize that she was in the study room, and in front of her was the book presented by the Ministry of Rites. It was probably because these rotten old ministers still disliked women's enthronement. Do the same, but it would be a bit nondescript if you reduce it a little bit. Yu Ye naturally wouldn't let them offend Xu Jiao like this. humiliating her like that
Xu Jiao saw some of the revisions to the ritual system at random. After all, there has been no reason for a woman to ascend the throne and sacrifice to the heaven. The old guys presented it, minus some of the steps to sacrifice to the heaven, The whole ceremony was changed to be nondescript, and immediately there was no interest in continuing to look down.
She picked up the pen and criticized "bullshit", and then threw the book to the eunuch holding the pen next to her. Thinking of the pictures she recalled when she was distracted, her eyes rarely flickered, even if others couldn't see the thoughts in her mind.
Xu Jiao calmed down and sent the book back to the Ministry of Rites. Looking at the remaining pile of books, she didn't have the energy to deal with affairs at all. She somehow found a reason and said to the eunuch who was about to leave. :
"General Xuan Yu is here to see you."
"Yes."
…
Before Yu Ye came, he was discussing with the Minister of War and a few confidants about the dispatch of troops from Qi. By the way, he shared the news from the spies in Chu State, so as to judge the way of cooperation with the King of Chu.
Hearing the summons from the palace, she thought that something had happened at Xu Jiao's place, she put aside the discussion for a while, and hurriedly put on the cloak brought by the housekeeper and went out. support others
She didn't have time to wait for her umbrella. When she went out, the raindrops fell on the top of her hair, and there were small dew-like crystals on her jet-black hair.
When she entered the palace, Xu Jiao had nothing to do, and called Lan Yan next to her again to ask how the girls who she had picked out and trained specially were doing.
Lan Yan saluted her blessed body and told the truth, mentioning the one who performed well.
Xu Jiao looked at the scenery outside the window. She didn't know when it was raining in the sky. She remembered the girl Lanyan had mentioned.
There are not many flowers blooming in this early spring, and everything in the world is still recovering. Even the spring flowers are particularly dazzling, as if they are the first color in the foggy gray.
Such rainy days always make people feel uninterested. Nie Yunyue doesn't like rainy days very much, because the rainy days left him some bad memories when he was a child, and his growth was not smooth sailing. Yes, there are some stories in it.
Once he was almost killed by a palace servant who was taking care of him. It happened to be a rainy day. On that day, his biological mother was called away by other palace concubines, leaving him alone in the courtyard, who often accompanied him to play. Lead him to a remote corner and stuff him some pastries brought from outside the palace as usual.
But Nie Yunyue almost died in that secluded corner.
After so many years, he still loathes those cakes that look so delicate and colorful that women and children will like. He can think of this stuff blocking his throat and causing him to feel suffocated. He would put these things on him unknowingly, and when it rained, he couldn't help but drink a lot of water.
It was as if that shadow could be swept away.
Xu Jiao recalled Nie Yunyue's story, looked at the drizzle that couldn't stop for a while, got up and stood by the window for a while, and said to Lanyan:
"It's better to hit the sun instead of choosing a day. Let's implement the plan today."
Lan Yan was a little surprised, but she didn't dare to disobey Xu Jiao's words. She leaned over to salute her calm and unwavering posture, and said yes. When she looked up again, she saw Xu Jiao's eyes suddenly brightened. Light.
at the same time.
There was a sound of hurried footsteps in the direction of the palace gate: "Wei Chen pays respects to His Highness."
Xu Jiao's face no longer had the irrelevant look she had when talking about Nie Yunyue, and she didn't know if she had noticed it herself.
The contours of her face softened unconsciously, her steps were a little brisk, she walked up to Yu Ye and helped her up: "Master Yu, don't be too polite."
Lan Yan told Xu Jiao to retire very wisely. She knew that in this study, it was no longer suitable for extra people to stay here.
Even though she didn't deliberately delve into the changes in the relationship between Xu Jiao and Yu Ye, she was very smart and knew what she should know, and she had to learn to pretend to be deaf and dumb even if she bumped into it on the spot.
Xu Jiao didn't care about the empty study room, she saw the dark color on Yu Ye's shoulder, raised her hand and brushed it lightly, feeling a little moisturizing, she couldn't help but wonder, "Didn't you come directly from the palace? Why? The servant didn't even bring an umbrella?"
She couldn't remember when the people around Yu Ye became so ignorant.
Yu Ye stared at her with pitch-black eyes. Seeing that she wiped it with her hands, she wiped the dampness off her shoulders and hair with a handkerchief. She even wanted to call the palace servants to do it for her. The meaning of getting a new set of clothes and putting on, couldn't help but stop:
"Don't bother, I didn't get too much drenched."
She said casually: "Just a few steps, I walked faster, and the people around me didn't keep up."
Although Yu Ye is tall, this is only a comparison among girls. There are also servants who serve her. Those who can be thugs and people can be used by others. All of them are strong and strong. Xu Jiao couldn't imagine without the steps of a woman. Could it be that Yu Ye flew in with Qinggong
Thinking of this, she pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Why are you so anxious? Is there something wrong?"
This was what Yu Ye wanted to ask.
Now that Xu Jiao said it first, she was quiet for two seconds, before taking her eyes off Xu Jiao's body, and then said softly: "There is indeed a very urgent matter."
Xu Jiao: "?"
Yu Ye: "I haven't seen you for three days. I miss His Highness very much, so I came to see you in a hurry."
Xu Jiao was hit by the unexpected love words, her expression went blank for a while, and then she reacted, but she didn't know how to pick it up, so she had to cover up and push Yu Ye onto her previous chair, and answered:
"Well, I and these memorials also miss you very much."
Yu Ye was not prepared for her, and was suddenly pushed by her to sit down on the dragon chair in the study. Even though she originally thought that there was no chair up and down in this big swallow, she couldn't sit on it, but now the situation is different. Jiao pushes this supreme throne, and of course it will be the one who takes the lead in supporting each other,
After noticing where I was sitting, I remembered.
At the same time, I was a little helpless at Xu Jiao's words, and wanted to laugh: "That's what you think of me? Summoned me into the palace to handle government affairs for you? Your Highness, how did you learn to be lazy?"
Xu Jiao raised her brows indiscriminately, and instead of letting Yu Ye get up, she pushed her back onto the chair again. There were no outsiders around, so she spoke more casually:
"How can I be lazy? This is your story. You dominate the world, and it is much more legitimate for you to sit on the throne than me, so you should handle this government affairs. I just came to practice some time ago. How to be the emperor That's it, it's Mr. Yu who is lazy."
Yu Ye was suddenly beaten back by her, stunned for a while, then raised his hand to pinch Xu Jiao's nose:
"It's okay to handle government affairs for you, but this is not allowed."
"Everything I have is given by you, and the world is yours."
I am yours too.
Yu Ye didn't say anything in the second half of the sentence, but Xu Jiao understood everything from her expression.
She blinked, pulled Yu Ye's hand away, lowered her eyes and looked at her, "Give it to you, it's all yours."
This time Yu Ye didn't argue with her about yours and mine, but just asked her: "Huh? It's mine if you give it to me? What about you? Do you give yourself to me?"
Xu Jiao was about to speak, but Yu Ye was a little afraid to hear her answer.
Because their future is still full of unknown.
She has her own way to go, and Xu Jiao also has her own life to go. They should not be mixed together.
They weren't even from one world in the first place.
Yu Ye took the initiative to pull the topic aside: "I want to unite with the state of Chu and send troops to Qi. According to the information sent by the spies from the two countries, it should be two months."
Xu Jiao heard her voice, and knew that sometimes the fighter plane will never come again. The enthronement ceremony that Yu Ye and the Ministry of Rites had agreed on was recently. If Xu Jiao wants to ascend the throne, Yu Ye must guard her at this time.
"I'll go with you." Xu Jiao finally gave this answer.
Yu Ye was stunned for a moment, and then said: "No, swords have no eyes on the battlefield, and even my side is not completely safe. I have already arranged it in the imperial capital. As long as you are in the palace, there will be no problem."
Xu Jiao: "I'm not worried about myself, I'm worried about you..."
She was afraid that there would be a temporary situation in Yu Ye, and she would not even be able to save her.
After all, the plot is now quite different from the original.
Not at all.
Yu Ye laughed, pulled her into his arms and hugged her, then touched the writing brush on the table, and asked her to open the next memorial for him, read it in ten lines at a time, imitating Xu Jiao's handwriting and replying with a smile. said:
"I'm the heroine, why are you worried about me?"
Xu Jiao didn't know how to answer when she said it.
In the end, I could only follow along to read the memorial, as if casually saying: "Well..."
Yu Ye gave her reassurance: "Don't worry, when I come back, I will give you a city as a gift for your succession."
But Xu Jiao shook her head: "I'll let the Ministry of Rites plan another day. When you come back, I'll ascend to the throne."
Yu Ye deliberately tried to persuade her, but Xu Jiao also learned how she changed the subject before, and brought the rhythm to another direction: "When you take down Qi, I will also have a gift for you, besides... You want me to be this one. Emperor, for such a ceremony, you have to look at me."
Yu Ye was speechless for a while.
The pen in her hand almost trembled.
After a long time, Xu Jiao heard her answer: "Okay."
The voice was a little suppressed, but the emotions inside were still full.
Xu Jiao paused and seemed to be hesitating, but after being quiet for a while, she suddenly said to the person holding her behind her, "Yu Ye."
"Um?"
Xu Jiao spoke slowly and seriously: "Whenever you tell me you will come back, I will definitely wait for you."
Fight like this.
These worlds are so.
later...
The same is true.
This is the only promise she can give, and it will be fulfilled when she says it.
As long as Yu Ye wants to come back to her, no matter how long she will wait, this is her most sincere response to this feeling.
