Chapter 38
: First Time To Meet You.
That smile, as if it brought the breeze and bright moon on Mang Mountain, was as meaningful as ever.
Between the ravines, the clothes are elegant and comfortable.
Light rain accompanied by green grass and trees, the emperor in the pavilion was not crowned, he walked lightly, walked to the emperor’s husband and sat down. The King of Han and the Queen just happened to arrive, and they stood under the steps in front of the pavilion, and saluted the two of them in the pavilion together.
The emperor looked at the two of her, looked at the husband, and smiled leisurely: “The wind and rain are lingering, the cold is invading, and the younger brother of Han Wang is talking to the princess in the pavilion.”
The king of Han hurriedly bowed his thanks and entered the pavilion with the princess.
A seat has been placed in the pavilion, the two entered the pavilion, and the emperor motioned for the two to take their seats. The King of Han was busy and thanked, and sat down tremblingly. She looked around quietly, and it was really empty, and there were no eunuchs and guards in ambush. Thinking that His Majesty did not want them to be here and disturbed the good scenery, she sent them away.
Han Wang let out a sigh of relief, so it seemed that he wouldn’t take someone at any time.
“I haven’t had a good conversation with Huangdi for some days. Seeing the lingering rain this morning, I can’t help but think of the light rain in the middle of that year, and the Huangdi was alone. The top oil umbrella, standing by the pool of Taiye, fascinated by the trees full of peach blossoms by the pool.” The emperor’s words were slow, and he sketched a picture from many years ago.
After she finished speaking, she smiled again, and said with a faint smile: “With this thought, I called the two of you into the palace to sit down. I don’t know if I would disturb the emperor’s younger brother?”
As she spoke, she turned her eyes to the princess, with some ridicule in her eyes, as if she had expected the frightened appearance of the king of Han when he heard the call.
When the King of Han heard the emperor’s words, he was very nervous and was about to speak, but when His Majesty looked at the princess, he didn’t want her to answer, and he didn’t dare to speak out without permission, so he just stared at the princess.
The princess smiled calmly: “His Royal Highness also misses His Majesty outside the palace. Although the palace wall is high, it is difficult to separate siblings. When His Majesty calls, His Highness can only be happy.”
The emperor smiled very lightly, shook his head, but said nothing.
There are no palace servants in the pavilion, so no one serves tea. The husband did not make a sound, he just watched, and when the emperor and the concubine said something, she personally brought a tea utensil and burned incense to cook the tea.
Cooking tea has always been an elegant thing, and the royal husband does it even more smoothly and elegantly.
There was no sound in the booth.
She gently shook Wang Fei’s hand a few times, Wang Fei noticed it, turned her head and glanced at her, her eyes were soft, and she easily comforted the King of Han.
The tea has been prepared and divided into a tea cup. The four of them each took it and slowly tasted it.
The husband didn’t interrupt, he just listened with a smile, glanced at the emperor from time to time, his eyes were also light, restrained and reserved, but because of the deep love between the two, the plainness made people detect the lingering meaning.
She listened to the conversation between the emperor and the king of Han. After a while, she glanced at the princess casually. When the emperor and the king of Han were almost talking, the husband suddenly looked at the princess and said, “I heard that the princess of Han Growing up in your uncle’s house since childhood, before getting married, have you never set foot in the capital?”
As soon as she made a sound, the emperor and the king of Han stopped talking and looked this way. The royal husband’s tone was calm and his expression was calm, but for some unknown reason, the King of Han always felt that the emperor’s husband’s words were concealing his shrewdness.
The King of Han was busy clenching the princess’s hand a few times, signaling her not to be afraid, and the acting princess replied: “At that time, I used to marry a step-wife too often, the house was busy, and the youngest daughter was ignored. A wife and a son, Tai Chang also has no time to take the princess home.”
In and out of the words, it is said that it is too often unkind, not that the princess is unfilial.
The meaning of maintenance is so obvious, it is difficult for her to speak this long list so fluently. The husband and the emperor looked at each other and smiled, but did not continue to ask.
The emperor’s body is weak, as everyone knows. The emperor lightly touched the back of his husband’s hand, fearing that she would catch the cold outside and want to bring her back to add clothes, so he said the last words of this summons: “For many years, the personnel in this palace have been turbulent, and there have been many changes. The few peach trees by Taiye Pond have never changed. Since the younger brother likes peach blossoms, it is better to visit the palace from time to time.”
This has been said very clearly. She doesn’t want to pursue that matter, so the King of Han will continue to be her King of Han.
After saying that, without waiting for the king of Han to reply, he pushed the imperial husband and went to the inner palace. The King of Han did not care about wondering how His Majesty knew she liked peach blossoms, so he hurriedly saluted the two of them, and when they were walking away, he suddenly realized what the emperor said.
She immediately looked at the princess, her dark eyes full of joy. The princess smiled and shook her head at her, pampered and helpless.
Only the two of them were left in the pavilion. Seeing that the easel used by the emperor’s husband for painting was still standing, the princess went to take a look. I saw that it was an unfinished figure painting. The figure in the painting had begun to take shape, with clouds on the temples and phoenix hairpins, and the skirts were elegant. It was clearly His Majesty.
She has been in the world for three thousand years. She has seen countless princes and generals, even if the dynasty has changed, she can’t remember how many. There have been a few stories about the deep love of the empress. However, she was indifferent by nature and never cared about ordinary things, and most of the empresses who were very affectionate ended up in desolation. Therefore, the clan often talked about the love between His Majesty and the royal husband in private, but she never cared about it. It was not until this time that she knew that the emperor of this dynasty was really different from the previous ones.
The king of Han saw the princess standing in front of the painting and looked at it for a long time, so he could not help walking beside her. When he saw that the painting was a portrait of the emperor, she blinked a little, and her eyes showed novelty and a little bit The child looked curious, as if the child had discovered some great secret, a mischievous smile appeared on his lips, turned his head to share with the princess, but saw that the princess was looking at the painting and seemed to like it very much.
Han Wang swallowed the words that came to her lips, and her smile solidified. She looked at the princess and the painting, and didn’t know what to think, the dark light in her eyes suddenly dimmed.
The emperor knew the temperament of the imperial husband, and knew that she would never do anything without basis, so he suddenly mentioned the matter of the princess’ childhood residence, which must have had other intentions.
The imperial husband lowered his head and chuckled, took the emperor’s hand, and said warmly: “Your Majesty, think about how many ministers in the Manchu Dynasty, when the imperial prelude is right, like the princess of the Han Dynasty. As calm as you can?”
After she mentioned it, the emperor really remembered that in the pavilion just now, the princess’s words and expressions were all calm and composed, and there was no reverence.
Such an arrogance, even a prime minister who is at the top of a hundred officials, is not something that a woman who lives in her uncle’s house all the year round and has been under the fence since childhood can have.
