The morning court again discussed the recent grand Spring Examination.
In addition, there is some news about Rongwu.
Everyone split up to search for him, but they only found a few of Rongwu's personal belongings, and they were afraid that he was in danger.
After destroying several bandit dens, they actually found several spies from the enemy country. However, they had undergone rigorous training and their mouths could not be opened. They all committed suicide overnight.
For a moment, all the ministers were shocked and confused.
After all, being a spy can be a big or small thing... If you are completely unprepared, your country may be destroyed in an instant.
Duan Changchuan acted out the anxiety of an emperor and had a long temper tantrum in the court.
Similar to, "Pa" sound, slamming the table and making a deafening noise, shouting:
"If General Rong had not been in trouble this time, would we have to wait until all the spies arrived at the court to find out?"
"Local county magistrates, local officials, what are they doing for a living? Send them all to the Dali Temple in Shengjing, and I will personally investigate their crimes!"
For example, he threw the memorial to the ground and shouted even louder:
"All spies, investigate them thoroughly! Anyone who has been around, investigate them thoroughly!"
"Where is the Dali Temple's Shaoqing? Go to Shaoguan Gorge immediately and set off early tomorrow morning!"
After all the orders were given and all the arrangements were made, he seemed to have just remembered that there was a regent beside him, and asked in a very obedient manner, "What do you think, uncle?"
Once the imperial decree is issued, how can it be changed? Moreover, this matter is of great importance, and Duan Changchuan's arrangement is completely faultless, let alone changed.
The regent, who had suffered a loss, could only bow stiffly: "Your Majesty is wise."
Duan Changchuan put his people directly into the main person in charge of this matter.
-
After the court session ended, Duan Changchuan asked Changle to announce to the public that "the emperor is angry and summoned the imperial physician to see the patient." He then opened the secret passage in the study of the Mingsheng Palace and went downstairs with a candle.
In the secret passage, Yun Xie and Feng Qian were sitting at the table waiting.
"Oh, I don't know who it is. On the surface, he didn't seem to have any feelings for our queen, but after someone won the first prize, he ignored the etiquette and set up a banquet to invite people over. I can't wait!"
When the young man saw him coming, he crossed his legs and fanned himself jokingly.
Duan Changchuan raised his eyelids and said, "You seem to be in a good mood. Why did Auntie Feng give you some pocket money to let you go and see the girl and listen to music?"
Yun Xie: …
"I want to watch the girl listen to music, do I need money from my aunt? After all, you are the head of the Imperial Observatory, how can I not have some money of my own?"
Duan Changchuan: "Oh, then which girl are you looking at, and which song are you listening to?"
The young man was immediately deflated.
Gritting his teeth, he said vaguely: "Well, isn't this what we are going to arrange today?"
Duan Changchuan: "What? I didn't hear clearly."
Yun Xie: "I didn't see anything, I didn't hear anything, you just took advantage of your aunt's presence, so I let you find a way to bully me."
The young man raised the corner of his mouth proudly.
The two were arguing when they heard a low, faint laugh coming from the corridor next door.
When I turned my head to look, I found a man in men's clothes, walking slowly towards me with the support of Feng Xian.
Duan Changchuan had seen Bai Su dressed as a man many times, riding a horse or shooting arrows, but he had never seen her dressed like she was now, with her hair tied up high and looking like an elegant scholar.
Blue cloth, no powder...
With a thick layer of white silk covering her eyes, she walked quietly in the candlelight room.
She looked more like a fairy who was ignorant of the world and accidentally fell into the mortal world, with a fairy-like aura all over her body.
"Bai Su...?"
Duan Changchuan took a long time to find his voice and asked softly.
Yun Xie immediately leaned close to his ear and whispered, "My aunt and I heard about what happened last night, so we specially invited her. Aren't we going to Yujin Building to watch the students' gathering? Lin Qing is also invited. It's a good opportunity to observe whether your wife still has feelings for him. How is it? Is it good for you?"
When talking about last night, Duan Changchuan always thought of the kiss in the pavilion.
And that weird dream yesterday...
And that's it... If it was just a simple dream, it would be fine, but he also has sleepwalking...
God knows if he did anything yesterday that was consistent with his dream.
The young man turned to Yun Xie and laughed dryly, gritting his teeth: "Thank you."
The young man waved his fan and said, "You're welcome, I'm helping you."
Duan Changchuan: …
-
In fact, the last time Feng Xian and Yun Xie were analyzing the stars, they brought up the matter of the little prince, and Duan Changchuan agreed hesitantly. Feng Xian and the others already knew that the young man actually liked Bai Su.
So after bringing Bai Su here, Feng Yan very consciously gave up his position, and the task of helping Bai Su out of the secret passage was given to Duan Changchuan.
The boy walked slowly to the man's side, cleared his throat, and said, "... Let's go."
Then he hesitated for a moment and took hold of the person standing with her hands hanging down.
-
The imperial city was originally large, and they had to walk all the way from the central palace to outside the palace. The straight-line distance alone was already very far, and the road in the secret passage was even more complicated and winding.
So after twists and turns for a long time, they were still in the secret passage.
In the quiet corridor, only the footsteps of four people could be heard, and Duan Changchuan's occasional reminders:
"Up the stairs."
"Be careful, the next step is flat ground."
"Turn right here, go slowly."
For nearly half an hour, he kept reminding me of every detail.
Until Yun Xie couldn't help but complain: "You said you don't know how to take care of people, but you reminded me very well. You said you know how to take care of people, but you don't even talk to people. You let people walk away blindfolded. You don't even lead prisoners like this."
Duan Changchuan: …
"Weren't you the ones who blindfolded her?"
Yun Xie: "We are just doing routine work. Your Majesty is so smart and has a photographic memory. What if she can remember the route after walking once? I'm not talking about the blindfold. I mean, can you chat with someone? Walking with your eyes covered is very insecure and many people would be afraid. Chatting with your Majesty might help alleviate the problem."
After saying that, he turned around and saw the two of them holding each other's wrists, and he felt even more disgusted.
"You are already husband and wife, why are you still so shy about touching each other? Tsk tsk tsk, when you two are in bed together, are you also like this, not touching each other at all? I mean, you shouldn't have kicked out the maids who were sent into the room. Don't you know how to consummate the marriage?"
Duan Changchuan:!
If he didn't have to support Bai Su, he would have stepped forward and shut Yun Xie's mouth.
Just when they didn't know what to do, Feng Qian, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped.
Yun Xie turned his head and argued with Duan Changchuan while walking, not looking at the road at all, and bumped into her unexpectedly.
"Hmm? Aunt, why did you stop suddenly?"
The pure woman turned back gracefully.
She looked him up and down and said lightly, "Nothing happened. I just suddenly realized that you have become much more mature during the time I was away in seclusion. You should be more careful in the future. It's hard to treat the dirty diseases you contract."
She was always very serious, and even gave instructions like this in a serious tone.
Yun Xie was stunned by what he said.
I waited until Feng Xian had walked quite far away before I remembered to chase him.
"What? What about contracting an unclean disease? I haven't been to those places!"
"Nothing, it's normal for men to be romantic. As your only elder, I'm just telling you some things to be careful of."
"Aunt, I really didn't! I just like to talk nonsense!"
"There's no need to say that about yourself."
There's no point in explaining it, it's just like that.
Finally, the young man was so angry that he stomped his feet in the secret passage.
"Why do you believe me when I tell you to look at the girl, but you refuse to believe me when I tell you that everything is fake? Do you want me to find someone to check it out and write you a statement before you believe me?"
"Aunt! I really didn't..."
Duan Changchuan burst out laughing and looked at the young man's back with pleasure: "You deserve it. Let's see if you dare to show off your power again in the future."
As he was speaking, he heard a whispered laugh from beside him.
Turning around, he saw the blindfolded woman, tilting her head to look at him.
The corners of her lips were slightly raised, and in the bright candlelight, her lips looked round and beautiful.
Although her eyes were clearly covered, she always had the illusion that she was looking at her through the silk cloth.
Duan Changchuan couldn't help but tighten his grip on the other person's hand.
When the other person lowered his head to look at his wrist, he realized that he had hurt him unknowingly.
He quickly relaxed his grip and said, "Uh... I'm sorry. Um... walking with your eyes covered, isn't that unsafe?"
Bai Su smiled: "I am a little uncomfortable with it."
The boy lowered his head and hesitated for a while...
His back hand slowly moved down and held her hand.
The voice asked softly, "Will this... be better?"
Being held back...
The palm with thin calluses is wrapped around the back of the hand, and the warm feeling spreads from the fingertips all the way to the tip of the heart.
Even my breathing became numb.
"This is much better." The woman said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The boy's ears turned red, and he responded in a hoarse voice: "Hao... That's good."
