Sure enough, there were no guards outside the side hall. Ye Shu deliberately remembered the way when he came here, and now he easily slipped out of the ancestral temple by following his memory.
…and then he got lost.
Royal sacrifices are very important, and the main mountain roads near the ancestral temple are heavily guarded, so the map left by Changyuan to Ye Shu is marked with mountain trails.
But that's the style...
Simple and abstract, it is impossible to recognize at all.
After going around the same forest several times, Ye Shu finally accepted the fact that he was lost again. He sat on a bluestone by the side of the mountain road, looked up at the cold moonlight in the sky, and sighed helplessly.
Why do you always go around into the woods every time you run away...
It's so hard to be crazy about the road.
Ye Shu sat there for a while, and suddenly heard someone approaching not far away.
The previous experience left him with lingering fears, and Ye Shu quickly hid behind the blue stone. He squatted down, curled up his hands and feet, completely hiding himself behind the bluestone and grass.
He had just hid when there was a conversation.
"... There is no way to go on like this, we have to think of a way quickly."
"What can you do? Your Majesty found that foxy son from nowhere, and was so fascinated that he could even make an exception for him in the ceremony. I can't think of what else to do."
Ye Shu: "..."
It turned out that he was this kind of personality in the eyes of others.
Ye Shu glanced over the overlapping grass, and saw clearly the appearance of the two people who were talking.
Two young men just happened to stand in front of the bluestone. Ye Shu made a little identification and saw that they were the officials accompanying today, Duan Chengzhi, Minister of Taichang Temple, and General Zuo Yan, who was in charge of guarding and patrolling.
Ye Shu actually didn't know how the government and the opposition discussed his existence, and Jin Wang never told him. But he can more or less guess some.
After all, since ancient times, all emperors have been unable to escape from inheriting their families and choosing their heirs.
His Majesty is a broken sleeve, so one can imagine how anxious these ministers will be.
"You can't say that, the general. Your Majesty was deceived for a while. We, the courtiers, can't just let it go. We have to persuade him."
"Admonishment?" The person beside him snorted coldly, "Those lords just went and were punished to kneel in the imperial study for a whole day. If lord Duan wants to try, go ahead."
The two of them crossed the blue stone and continued to discuss while walking forward, Ye Shu heaved a sigh of relief.
This Minister of Taichang Temple is under the command of the original owner and has appeared in the novel.
Taichang ranks first among the nine ministers. This person has some prestige and status in the court, and he has no bad intentions. But he is still not liked by the monarch, there is no other reason, this person is too worried about life-long events.
This person is a minor supporting role in the book, and Ye Shu doesn't remember his plot clearly.
In his memory, this person seemed to have done something else, which made Jin Wang furious.
But what exactly...
Ye Shu couldn't remember for a moment.
His thoughts drifted away, and he didn't realize that his body was gradually changing.
A scent of green plum fruit spread from his side.
Kunjun is pregnant, and Xinxiang will often lose control, beyond human control.
And since the imperial physician found out that Ye Shushen was pregnant, Jin Wang no longer gave him the Yixi Pill, and instead covered his body Xinxiang with dried Junxin incense.
He came out in a hurry tonight, and the incense that Jinwang injected into him temporarily was not enough to make him spend the night safely.
This is the time when the incense will fail.
Of course, Ye Shu knew nothing about these things.
He just tugged on the neckline lightly, trying to dispel the hot feeling that was gradually surging.
In the distance, the two people who had already walked away stopped.
Duan Chengzhi asked: "General, what's wrong?"
"This taste is..." Zuo Yan frowned slightly, and looked back at the way he came, "Is there Mr. Kun?"
Duan Chengzhi is just a mediocre person, but Zuo Yan, the general who protects the country, is an out-and-out gentleman.
Once the out-of-control Xinxiang was leaked, it was out of control.
Ye Shu's consciousness quickly began to become blurred. He clutched the grass beside him, trying his best not to make any sound.
At this moment, a new smell permeated the air.
The smell was as strong as rosin, and it exploded in the forest without mercy, chasing after Kun Jun in the dark. Unlike Gan Junxinxiang who marked himself, this smell not only did not make him comfortable, but made him extremely oppressed, almost out of breath.
Ye Shu lost all his strength without any resistance. He fell to the ground, feeling someone approaching him in a trance.
"This, is this really Mr. Kun?" Duan Chengzhi asked.
Under the moonlight, the young man in night clothes curled up in the grass, a small section of slender white wrist was exposed under the tight cuffs, as if a hand could be broken.
He unconsciously grabbed the grass under him, his brows were furrowed and his lips were slightly pursed, so beautiful that anyone could be tempted.
...Ye Shu even chose Zhang's stunning face for his disguise, although it was still a little less attractive than his original appearance.
Zuo Yan suppressed the lust in his eyes: "That's right, it's Mr. Kun."
He was about to step forward, but was stopped by Duan Chengzhi: "What is the general going to do?"
Zuo Yan was inexplicably impatient, but he also regained consciousness under his obstruction. He took a deep breath and said: "The reason why this person appeared here is unknown, and it should be handed over to His Majesty."
Duan Chengzhi refused to let go: "General, don't do this, we can discuss this matter."
"What are you discussing?"
Duan Chengzhi's eyes lighted up slightly, and his voice was trembling with excitement: "This is Jun Kun, the one-in-a-kind Kun Jun, the fertile Kun Jun!"
Zuo Yan: "... what do you want?"
"Come here with your ears, I'll tell you..."
Ye Shu couldn't hear what they said, and even if he could hear it, he didn't have the ability to distinguish information. His mind was in chaos, and he soon lost consciousness under the unrestrained Gan Junxinxiang.
Before losing consciousness, Ye Shu only had one thought in his head.
He really didn't agree with the woods, and he didn't run away.
In the early morning of the next day, there was a sound of broken porcelain in the side hall where the monarch lived.
The imperial guards kneeled outside the door, and inside the hall, a black figure was escorted by two imperial guards and knelt down on the ground.
Jin Wang sat at the main seat, his face was terribly gloomy.
"You said you made an appointment with him to meet at the foot of the mountain, what about the others now?"
The man kneeling under the hall suffered a lot of injuries, lowered his head, and did not answer for a while.
Changyuan waited at the foot of the mountain all night, but he never saw Ye Shu coming, instead the emperor's forbidden army came.
He originally thought that something went wrong with Ye Shu and didn't run away, but now it seems that he has indeed left the ancestral temple.
...but where would he go
The teacup shattered at Changyuan's feet, and the hot tea splashed all over his body. Before Changyuan could react, he was suddenly grabbed by the throat with a huge force.
Nagagaki let out a short whimper from his throat, and his face quickly flushed red.
He tried his best to raise his head and met Jin Wang's red eyes.
"If something really happens to him, Gu will definitely make your life worse than death." Jin Wang's voice was low and hoarse, his eyes were cold and gloomy, "Say!"
Chang Yuan raised his hand to grab Jin Wang's wrist, and said with difficulty: "Subordinate... I really don't know."
There was an undisguised killing intent in Jin Wang's eyes.
Chang Yuan even felt that Jin Wang would crush his throat bone on the spot.
But Jin Wang just threw him back, and threw him back to the foot of the imperial army: "Take him down."
The imperial guards quickly dragged away the coughing person, Jin Wang returned to the chair and sat down, closing his eyes wearily.
He never imagined that Ye Shu would dare to drug him.
I don't know if it was the news of Ye Shu's pregnancy that made him relax his vigilance, or whether that person's acting was so good these days that he didn't suspect his intentions at all.
All the obedient and obedient pretending is for today.
But if he really escapes, that's all. Why is he missing now
Jin Wang didn't even dare to think about what would happen to a Kun Jun who didn't know martial arts and was pregnant outside.
Gao Jin, the chief servant, opened the door and walked in: "Your Majesty, you..."
Jin Wang suddenly opened his eyes: "Have you found the person?"
"No." Gao Jin said in a low voice, "Your hand... do you want the servant to find an imperial doctor to bandage it for you?"
Jin Wang was startled, then looked down.
The hand hanging by his side was scratched by broken porcelain, bleeding profusely.
He smiled wryly, ignored it, and said in a low voice: "Order, immediately recall all the spies sent to the capital, and let all the spies and shadow guards look for them, starting from the ancestral temple, digging three feet of the ground, lonely people want to see People... die to see the corpse."
"Yes." Gao Jin asked again, "The ancestor worship ceremony..."
"Postponed for the time being." Jin Wang said wearily, "The news of the imperial concubine's private escape cannot be known to anyone, but it is said that she is alone and unwell, and the ancestor worship will be held at another time."
Gao Jin: "Yes."
From this day on, all the shadow guards under Jin Wang began to search secretly.
Can never whereabouts.
One day, two days, three days... Ye Shu's news seemed to disappear without a trace.
Except for the first day when Jin Wang lost control of his emotions, he always behaved very calmly.
The convoy of royal ancestor worship returned to Kyoto on the third day, and the monarch even started to go to court the next day, without showing the slightest sign of being ill.
— In addition to his increasingly gloomy expression, his methods became more violent.
For several days in a row, there were frequently ministers who said wrong things at court meetings and were dismissed by His Majesty and sent to prison for punishment. Even the one with the lightest crime was beaten with dozens of boards, almost losing half his life.
The civil and military officials just survived the court meeting for a few days, and they began to have speculations in their hearts.
The most convincing conclusion is that His Majesty finally woke up from being blinded by beauty and began to regret the move of accepting the concubine.
Otherwise, based on His Majesty's love for the imperial concubine, why should he postpone the ancestor worship and never mention the matter of the wedding.
But, it's rare for young people to fall in love for the first time, and it's normal that it doesn't come out so easily.
It's just that they suffered from this group of courtiers.
The ministers complained endlessly, and finally on the morning of the seventh day, someone stood up.
The court hall was so quiet that a needle could be heard falling, Jin Wang was dressed in a black and gold court dress, tapped the dragon chair casually with his fingertips, and narrowed his eyes dangerously: "Say it again?"
This tone sounded chilling, Duan Chengzhi, the minister of Taichang Temple, murmured, and said bravely: "Chen... I found a stunning Kunjun a few days ago, and I want... I want to present my beauty to Your Majesty."
"Dedicated beauty..." Jin Wang slowly repeated these two words between his lips and tongue, and sneered, "Who gave you the courage?"
"Your Majesty, forgive me!" Duan Chengzhi knelt on the ground with a puff, "Your Majesty once said that he likes men, and if he finds Lord Kun, he can offer his beauty to His Majesty. I act according to the divine order!"
Jin Wang paused at his fingertips.
Did he say that
Maybe I said it, I was a headache from these ministers arguing in those few days, so I used this as an excuse to go on.
It's hard to find a Kun Lord in this world, and they didn't expect them to find one so soon.
— and hit the muzzle right on the gun.
Jin Wang laughed back angrily, and said softly: "Since it is the stunning Kunjun, of course Gu can see it."
Duan Chengzhi just breathed a sigh of relief, but he heard Jin Wang write lightly: "However, if Duan Qing exaggerates, how about treating it as a crime of deceiving the emperor?"
As soon as he said this, Duan Chengzhi immediately regretted it.
But the matter of presenting beauty has already been opened, and it is also deceitful to change the mouth.
Duan Chengzhi could only bite the bullet and answered "Yes", Jin Wang said calmly, "Bring him up."
Four servants quickly carried a sedan chair into the hall.
The brocade sedan chair was wrapped in bright red silk. Duan Chengzhi walked over on his knees, grabbed the silk rope on one side, and pulled it hard.
Brocades fell from all sides, and inside was a golden iron cage.
The bottom of the iron cage was also covered with a thick layer of red silk, on which lay a beautiful woman in plain clothes.
This cage is not too small, just big enough for a grown man to lie down on. The beauty curled up at the bottom of the cage, her complexion was ruddy and stable, and she was sleeping heartlessly.
The long hair that reached the ground was spread out, revealing only half of a delicate and fair side face.
Just this half profile is amazing enough.
But Jin Wang lazily said: "That's all."
His appearance was not even a ten thousandth of Ye Shu's.
This is the so-called stunning
"It's a felony to deceive the emperor. If you drag it down, you will be punished with a stick." Jin Wang ordered lightly.
The servant immediately stepped forward to drag him, and Duan Chengzhi pleaded: "Your Majesty, forgive me, he, he is a rare Kun Jun, Your Majesty, you—"
He wailed in every possible way, and the beauty in the cage turned over on the soft red silk as if unbearably disturbed.
The cinnabar mole that was pressed behind the ear finally appeared, and a fresh and sweet breath immediately enveloped the entire court.
Kunjun's Xinxiang is like green plums after rain, elegant and fresh, with a sweet and sour taste that makes people salivate.
Jin Wang's expression changed instantly.
Almost no one can resist the sweet Kunjun Xinxiang. In the court, many Qianjun Xinxiang were faintly aroused and began to compete secretly.
The beauty in the cage was startled by everyone's scent, frowned impatiently, and let out a low moan.
"Well... uncomfortable..."
Jin Wang suddenly sobered up.
The next moment, a powerful fragrance of Qianjun Xin appeared above the court.
The emperor's letter incense is extremely pure and extremely aggressive, overshadowing everyone's scent in an instant.
The ministers' legs were so weak that they could hardly stand.
In this suffocating high concentration of letter incense, all the ministers heard the young emperor on the dragon chair smile softly: "I like this gift very much, Duan Qing has a heart."
When Ye Shu woke up again, he was lying under a bed curtain.
He rubbed his eyes and turned sleepily.
He has been in the hands of that surname Duan for the past few days. That person may have given him some sleeping pills, he sleeps more and wakes up less, and he doesn't know what night it is.
Only when I woke up occasionally, I heard that Duan said that he would dedicate him to His Majesty.
... Wait, dedicated to His Majesty? ?
Ye Shu suddenly remembered that it was written in the book that shortly after Prime Minister Ye Shu's death, Duan Chengzhi began to search everywhere and offered a stunning beauty to the Changlu King.
Unexpectedly, the presentation of beauty was too simple and rude, and it happened to meet Jin Wang's picky eyes.
He didn't even take a look at the beauty that was sent, and asked someone to drag her out and stick her to death.
Duan Chengzhi was also beaten with a hundred sticks and almost died.
This can't be done, if he really presents it to Jin Wang as a beauty, wouldn't he be a sheep again
No, he has to run away quickly.
Ye Shu dragged his limp body to sit up, pulled back the gauze curtain, and was startled by the person sitting beside the bed.
He met a pair of dark and red eyes.
The air stands still for a moment.
The next second, Ye Shu's hand jerked and pulled the gauze curtain back up.
Jin Wang: "..."
