On the days when the red mud stove was making new wine, the sky was clear in Xueji, and several great events happened in the capital that shocked the emperor and made history.
The general of Yulin, Gu Heyan, trespassed on the Biao Si, robbed the prison and rescued the prisoners, provoking the emperor's anger.
However, the guilt had not yet been brought down to the general's house, and Gou Ji's document of negotiating peace was presented to the emperor first.
The servant of the Ministry of Rites, Mu Zhiming, who carried the orders of the envoys on his shoulders, was not afraid of swords and axes, served as an ambassador for the country before the war, and negotiated peace without being humble or arrogant.
The crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason is self-defeating.
Immediately afterwards, in the Hall of Xuande, the sage king Fu Ji'an impeached Huoxing, the head of the Bixian Division, and cited various evidences of his murdering Zhongliang.
Huoxing took all the guilt alone, and on the second day after being imprisoned, he committed suicide in the sky prison.
This matter, the emperor did not delve further.
Just like the case of the fifth prince Fu Yi falling into the water many years ago, the emperor did not want to get into it, nor could he get into it.
The son of the direct relative is the face of the Tian family.
But later, the prince Fu Qiyin made a very small mistake, which made the emperor angry and imprisoned him in the East Palace for six months.
Yuan Baode, the son of the Yuan family, fled the capital in disguise overnight after Huoxing was imprisoned.
Unexpectedly, they met Pei Hantang and his party who were escorting the envoy Gou Ji into the capital, and they were arrested again.
This time, he had nowhere to go.
Dali Siqing was dismissed for improperly guarding prisoners, and an upright official was promoted.
Gouji's envoys entered the capital, and no one could receive them, which made the emperor difficult.
Fu Ji'an sincerely looked at Hanlu three times, and invited Mu Zhiming's former mentor, Mrs. Cheng, who was over seventy years old, to come out of the mountain.
Dajin and Gouji will surely prosper and prosper hand in hand.
Fu Ji'an made meritorious deeds, and the emperor rewarded him with precious gold, and then called him into the palace to play chess with him for half a day.
In the middle of the night, Xiaoxue fell, Qiongfang was accompanied by Hanmei, and the night was long and cold. For some reason, the emperor left the palace of Xinna's favorite concubine and stood in front of the cold palace for half the night, soaked in cold air.
The next day, the imperial concubine, the concubine, resumed her position as a concubine and moved from the cold palace to Fengyi Palace.
But although the noble concubine was reset, the emperor never went to see her once.
The concubine and the concubine were happy and comfortable, chatting gossip with concubine Xian and concubine De every day over melon seeds.
Concubine Xian: "The emperor's new favorite concubine, Feng Jieyu, can be arrogant and domineering. Yesterday morning, I greeted the empress and I had to keep talking about the prince's grounding. You didn't see it, the empress's face was blue."
The concubine: "Didn't the empress tell the emperor?"
"What's the use of saying it?" Concubine Xian clapped the crumbs of the melon seeds on her hands, "People are young and beautiful, and it's when the bonus is favored, you can be careful, maybe she will come to provoke you."
As a prophecy, Feng Jieyu really brought people to Fengyi Palace to make trouble early the next morning.
Just because the red plum blossoms bloomed in the courtyard of Fengyi Palace, Feng Jieyu ordered someone to come to cut a few branches and put them in a bottle after hearing about it, but Xiaoyan, the maid of the noble concubine, refused, and invited everyone out. Feng Jieyu So he came to Xingshi to ask his guilt.
The noble concubine had always had a good temper and did not want to make trouble with her, so she promised Feng Jieyu to move a few red plum trees to the front of her bedroom.
Unexpectedly, Feng Jieyu refused to give up, slapped Xiaoyan, and cut off the sleeves of the noble concubine, mocking her as a cold palace concubine.
This shocked the emperor.
Feng Jieyu, pear blossoms with rain, threw herself at the emperor's feet and cried and complained of grievances, calling the imperial concubine a wicked person who made things difficult for her.
The emperor glanced at the noble concubine, who said nothing, and said, "Feng Shi's following crimes are arrogant and arrogant, and the more you don't know, the white silk is given to hang himself."
Feng Jieyu didn't understand why she died until she died.
In an eventful autumn, many words are mixed and people are confused, but the general's simple courtyard is quiet and peaceful.
The breeze caressed the front of his clothes, and Mu Zhiming, who was lying on the couch, slowly opened his eyes. Outside the coffin, the shadows of the sycamore leaves and the whirling trees came into his eyes.
Mu Zhiming remembered that when he was young, his mother Gong held him in her arms and taught him to read and write.
She has kind eyes and a smile on the corner of her mouth: "Little Li Zhu, the five phoenix elephants, the red ones are phoenixes, and the divine bird Li Zhu is also a red bird."
Mu Zhiming, who was only six years old, asked suspiciously, "Feng?"
"Yeah." Gong Shi smiled, "Phoenix Emperor, Qi Wutong, eat Lianshi, drink Liquan, it's a lucky bird."
"You finally woke up."
A hoarse voice sounded in his ears, and Mu Zhiming turned his head to look.
Gu Heyan didn't know how many days and nights he stayed beside the sickbed. The determined general's eyes were blue, his face was haggard, and his mind was lost, but those eyes that were originally full of tiredness and weariness opened his eyes when he saw Mu Zhiming. The moment, suddenly bright.
Mu Zhiming was powerless, and whispered to him: "He Yan..."
"What's wrong?" Gu Heyan asked him.
Mu Zhiming shook his head and reached out to him.
Gu Heyan hesitated for a moment, then held it tightly.
Mu Zhiming smiled and said, "He Yan... Let's get married... "
Gu Heyan's eyes trembled, he was silent for a long time, and nodded solemnly: "Okay."
Mu Zhiming has been locked in the gate of hell for a while, but now he can open his eyes, which is a great blessing.
The military doctor Xia Tian didn't say anything, but fortunately, only two mouthfuls of the poisoned wine were poured in, and Mu Zhiming vomited for a while, so it didn't cause a catastrophe.
Come to think of it, that bowl of sour rice soup actually worked.
It's just that the cold scorpion's poison is weird, and I don't know if it will leave any sequelae.
Caiwei sat in front of Mu Zhiming's couch and cried for a while, but it was useless to coax Mu Zhiming. Juanniang and Aunt Liang were worried that she would break down from crying, so they took her to the side room to rest.
As soon as Caiwei left, Wen Heyin came again.
He and Pei Hantang helped Gu Heyan, who was anxious to return to Beijing, to escort the envoy Gou Ji. They only arrived at the Mu residence yesterday when they heard about what happened to Mu Zhiming.
Wen Heyin threw herself on Mu Zhiming, hugged him and cried, "Master, if something happens to you, I won't be alive anymore, woo woo."
"That won't work." Mu Zhiming patted his back with a smile and reassured him, "Is your shoulder injury healed?"
"It's been a long time, woohoo." Wen Heyin wailed, "My motherfucker, dog thing, animal stuff, bastard, sleeping on the door panel, buried head down, buy a coffin on New Year's Eve, July Fifteen has no incense."
Mu Zhiming: "...Where did you learn it?"
Pei Hantang on the side looked at the sky and the ground: "..."
Gu Heyan stared at Pei Hantang and coughed.
Pei Hantang immediately understood, and went forward and shoved Wen Heyin from Mu Zhiming into his arms: "Okay, okay, let Master Mu have a good rest, and you don't quarrel with him."
Wen Heyin stretched her arms and shouted reluctantly, "Master—"
Then he was dragged out of the wing by Pei Hantang.
The room finally quieted down. There was no medicinal soup in the summer, and he asked to drink it while it was hot. Gu Heyan nodded, took the medicine bowl, sat on the side of the bed, scooped up a spoonful, blew hot air and handed it to Mu Zhiming's mouth.
Mu Zhiming's wrist was weak, and he would shake when holding the bowl for a long time. He smiled and calmly drank the medicine fed by General Gu.
"That's right." Mu Zhiming was a little puzzled, "I was in a daze these days, didn't the people from Mu Mansion come to look for me to go back to the mansion?"
Gu Heyan: "The Duke of Yan is still on his way back to Beijing."
Others can't take you away.
"Ah... That's it." Mu Zhiming nodded, remembering his father's strong opposition to his marriage with Gu Heyan, he couldn't help feeling a little worried.
Seeing that he was disappointed, Gu Heyan lowered his eyes slightly disappointed, and said softly, "Do you want to go back to the Mu residence?"
Mu Zhiming said with a smile: "I don't want to go back, it's better for you, be quiet." He turned his head to look out the window, smiling even more, shaking his head and saying, "The golden wind is thin, the leaves of the phoenix tree are falling. The beginning of green wine It's easy to get drunk when you taste it, and you sleep deeply in a small window."
"Yeah." Gu Heyan replied, "Drink the medicine."
Mu Zhiming nodded: "Okay."
After taking a bowl of medicine, Mu Zhiming stuck out his tongue and begged Gu Heyan for water.
Gu Heyan got up, left the wing for a moment, and came back with a glass of water and a plate of sweet-scented osmanthus white rice cake in his hand.
"Jiyuezhai?!" Mu Zhiming's eyes lit up.
"Yeah." Gu Heyan nodded, sat down beside the bed, and handed the cake to Mu Zhiming.
Mu Zhiming rolled his eyes like a crescent moon, swallowed a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake in a few mouthfuls, and quickly reached out to pick up the second piece. Just after taking two bites of the second piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, Mu Zhiming noticed that Gu Heyan was staring at him for a moment. .
Mu Zhiming's eyes turned slightly, his eyes were slightly narrowed and he didn't know what to think, and suddenly smiled: "Jiyuezhai's pastries have been as good as one day for several years. This sweet-scented osmanthus cake is the same as the previous one. It is sweet and delicious, and it just relieves the bitter medicine in my mouth. ."
Gu Heyan: "Yes."
"General Gu." Mu Zhiming smiled warmly like a stream, "My mouth is very sweet now, do you want to taste it?"
Gu Heyan: "..."
Mu Zhiming: "General Gu?"
Gu Heyan said coldly, "Don't be joking."
But his earlobes were already red.
Mu Zhiming smiled and said, "If I say it, am I not joking?"
Gu Heyan: "..."
Mu Zhiming sighed: "Forget it, it seems that General Gu doesn't want to taste it."
Gu Heyan: "I..."
Before he finished speaking, Mu Zhiming leaned over and said with a smile, "It's okay, you don't have to try it if you don't want to, but I want to kiss you, so I want to."
The breaths of the two blended together. Mu Zhiming kissed Gu Heyan in a gentle, tender manner. When their lips and tongues were rubbing together, the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus lingered in their mouths. Mu Zhiming's temples went to the back of his head, and he pressed them firmly, making the two stick closer.
Mu Zhiming was still weak and weak, Gu Heyan didn't dare to kiss him hard, and he let go after a while, but Mu Zhiming licked the corner of his mouth restlessly, his eyes were full of bad intentions, and he bit his lower lip.
Gu Heyan: "..."
Mu Zhiming smiled and asked, "Dare to ask the general, is this sweet-scented osmanthus cake sweet?"
Gu Heyan's chest rose and fell slightly, and he nodded after a while.
Mu Zhiming smiled even more and continued to eat pastries.
"You..." Gu Heyan hesitated for a long time, then spoke slowly.
"Huh?" Mu Zhiming looked up at him, "He Yan, do you have something to ask me?"
Gu Heyan: "...that day I rescued you from the prison of Oxu, you said...you said...you said you..."
He hesitated for a moment, but did not utter a complete sentence.
Mu Zhiming continued his words: "I said, I like you."
The wind and the moon are boundless, and the stars are changing. No matter when you ask, you can get this statement.
Gu Heyan was stunned. He didn't speak for a long time, and he didn't see his ecstatic expression. He was silent for a while, and said in confusion, "But..."
He wanted to ask, but was afraid to ask.
Once bitten by a snake, you can be afraid of the rope for ten years.
Gu Heyan, who watched Mu Zhiming and Fu Yi know each other in his previous life, and has misunderstood several times in this life.
"But?" Mu Zhiming was confused by him, "but what?"
I've never seen Gu Heyan so hesitant before, what is it that makes General Gu so hesitant.
The two of them were playing dumb puzzles when there was a knock on the door outside the house.
"Master." Wen Zhongcheng shouted from outside, "His Royal Highness Xian has come down. He heard that Young Master Mu has woken up and came to visit him."
Gu Heyan didn't say more, got up and opened the door to greet him.
Fu Ji'an walked into the house, and there was another person behind him.
This man was wearing a plain white brocade cloak, with his head lowered, and a hood covering his face, making it difficult to see his face.
When Mu Zhiming was wondering who was coming, the man lifted his hood and raised his head.
The person who came was actually a noble concubine!
