Chapter 84 Letter

"Your Majesty, what's there?" Yun Fenghuang looked in the direction pointed by the emperor, and saw a piece of Tingzhou in the water, covered with reeds and other slightly low vegetation, lush and airtight From time to time, water birds come and go, and the surrounding water surface does not know how deep it is, and the clear reflection reflects the high sky reed curtain.

The emperor smiled lightly, lowered his arms, and said slowly: "There is a swamp there, which can trap people and horses. If Aifei comes out alone in the future, she should be more careful."

"Looking at the strange distance, what is the concubine doing there?" Yun Fenghuang glanced, not sure if he was reminding him kindly, or if he hid some people and things in the reeds that he didn't want him to find out, so he threatened himself stay away?

She smiled calmly and said, "Your Majesty, I have seen those birds, why don't I try my hand now?"

Not only did the emperor have no confidence in her and Gu Zhen's strength, but Yun Fenghuang's own family knew about her family affairs. If she had been in the Northland, she might have to try her luck hunting bigger things. It would be fine to hunt a hare and muntjac. Yes, but practicing martial arts is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat.

After working in the imperial capital for three years, she was really raised in a deep boudoir and was unknown to everyone. It has long been abandoned. How can I save the original bow and arrow?

Now he can only bully birds like this.

The emperor readily agreed, so someone presented the bow and arrow.

What was given to the emperor was a flashy longbow inlaid with gold and inlaid with treasures. Yun Fenghuang glanced at it and estimated that it was probably a stone, which was very easy for the emperor. But this guy deliberately concealed it, and he would never use a three-stone bow—and the three-stone bow is too long, which is inconvenient for riding and shooting, and it is not suitable for hunting.

While thinking about it, the bow and arrows given to her were also brought up. Yun Fenghuang was slightly taken aback when she saw it. The details of this quadruple bow are more exquisite than the emperor's. The bowstrings were all dyed a light crimson color that would please most women.

The matching pot of arrows even exudes a faint fragrance, which has been smoked in advance!

"Knowing that the two concubines are accompanying you, I specially asked someone to prepare some items suitable for the female relatives." Seeing that the emperor and concubine were staring at the bow in a daze, Gongxiang Xiaoce immediately explained, "If the empress doesn't like it, I will ask someone to change it. A change?"

Yun Fenghuang came back to his senses, smiled and said: "No need, the son has a heart."

What she really wanted to say was that Qi Jiulu had a heart.

Not to mention the beauty of this bow, when I first got it, I found that it was exactly the same as the bow and arrow she was used to in the Northland without those cumbersome decorations.

Ten percent was prepared by Qi Jiulu through Gong Xiangxiao's hand.

Gathering his mind, Yun Fenghuang controlled himself not to look at his fiancé in front of him, but drew an arrow and set it on the string, aiming at the waterfowl flying past the water not far away, aiming for a moment , let go suddenly!

The unlucky water bird fell in response.

The emperor took the lead in shouting hello, so everyone praised Jieyu's superb arrow skills - although those with sharper eyes could see that Yun Fenghuang's arrow didn't penetrate the bird's body at all, but missed it, but it was just a water bird. Petite and light, the defense is fragile, and it is not lightly injured by the arrows, so it fell into the water and could not fly.

But the bows and arrows that are just getting started can have such accuracy. Let's put it bluntly, among the women at this time, it is difficult for some generals to do it, so this kind of flattery is not unconscionable.

"It's a pity that we didn't bring the hounds out, but the arrow of the empress is cheap for the fish and insects in the water." Gong Xiangxiao said with a smile, "Otherwise, we will go to the banquet later, and the ready-made extra meal."

Yun Fenghuang smiled and said: "I'm showing my ugliness to my humble skills. If you want to add a meal, it depends on Your Majesty."

Talking and smiling at the emperor, the emperor smiled lightly, glanced at a flock of flying birds coming out of the reed not far away, without aiming, holding a bow like a full moon, and shot two arrows at random, listening to the mournful sound, the flock of flying birds There was a sound of dumpling falling into the water, but the bow he used was strong enough, and the arrows pierced through the flock of birds, each of which harvested more than one.

"Your Majesty is so powerful!" Yun Fenghuang hung the bow and arrow on the saddle and applauded him, but he didn't take it seriously in his heart, secretly thinking that Qi Jiulu could do it too.

Because this time they just came out for a walk, they didn't plan to shoot seriously, and they didn't even take the eagles and dogs with them. After the emperor and concubine made their own shots, they put down their bows and arrows. Even if they saw some hares and pheasants, they just discussed a few words. Did not draw the bow again.

When the meal was almost over, the group returned to Chunban Villa. The emperor accompanied Yun Fenghuang to the back, and Gong Xiangxiao and others naturally stopped in the front yard.

At this time, Yun Fenghuang asked the emperor: "Your Majesty, who were those people just now?"

The emperor smiled and said: "Some are clan relatives, some are the children of high officials in the court... They heard that I am going to go hunting, and they told the Prince Regent that they wanted to join in the fun, and I agreed."

Of course, this matter is not that simple. The so-called joining in the fun is either to monitor or to get close. In short, the purpose is not pure.

Yun Fenghuang recalled the quick glance just now, among the emperor's six companions, only Gong Xiangxiao was there, and the others were all strangers.

Deng Chengzhai should be the most trusted by the emperor among the companions. The emperor came to Chunban Mountain Villa to hunt, and he probably wanted to leave him to sit in the palace; Ji Minggan and Yuan Ke were involved in the crime of murdering the emperor. They let it go lightly, but they didn't cover up their mistakes. They are still stared at by the elders of the family, and they reflect behind closed doors at home... Speaking of which, Ji Minggan is actually cautious, otherwise he would not specifically drag Yuan Ke.

But the emperor was more ruthless than he thought, and he didn't care about Yuan Ke's brother-in-law at all.

After all, Yuan Niangniang was partial to the emperor, but she didn't make trouble with the emperor for this matter... But this master is the kind of person who doesn't care about her parents as long as she is with her lover. What kind of?

Yun Qike escorted Concubine Shu's coffin back to the Imperial Capital. After all, Concubine Shu is an old man who has been with the Emperor for many years. Coupled with the loyalty of the Duke of Yi, the Emperor probably allowed this person to stay in the Imperial Capital for a while, and he is not here now. .

But Zheng Fenglin, for some reason, was nowhere to be seen.

The faces of those who are old and young, the young ones are about the same age as Yun Fenghuang, with a childish look between their brows; Most of the dandies who eat rice at home have held some positions.

In this case, running over to accompany the emperor to hunt, then it is probably a good show.

It can be seen that the emperor's wings are getting richer.

After all, in the past eight years, the only outsiders the emperor could get in touch with were six companions, except for a few emperor tutors personally appointed by the empress dowager.

Thinking about it is also pitiful.

Yun Fenghuang sighed without sincerity, and then made some indirect remarks about the situation of Chunban Villa - this villa is the emperor's private property, not the private property inherited from Emperor Xiaozong, but Empress Dowager Yuan's gratitude for the emperor's filial piety In the fifth year of Chunjia's fifth year, he used his own money to ask people to rush to build it, and it was specially used for the emperor to rest while hunting.

The main hall of the villa is Xuehui Hall. This is because when it was completed, standing at the entrance of the main hall, condescending, you can just see a large area of ​​reeds heading and blooming, which looks like snow-colored glory under the refraction of the water.

The backyard is headed by the Liuchun Hall where the emperor lived when he came, and there are several pavilions scattered according to the terrain.

Gu Zhen came in first, and had already unceremoniously selected the Shake Love House which is the closest to Liuchun Hall, so Yun Fenghuang could only settle for the second best at this time, and chose Qingbi Tower which was a little farther away.

The imperial concubine was freshening up a little, and someone from the bottom came to inform that the banquet had been prepared, and they were just waiting for them to take their seats.

It was said that the imperial concubine was only waiting for the banquet, but in fact only the emperor went to the banquet, and the two concubines ended up having meals in the building where they lived.

When Yun Fenghuang was eating, he was very reconciled, and after eating two yuan, he said to Nian Xuan: "I miss my youth, if I were at home, and it was so lively in front of me, I would definitely change into my brother's robe to mix of."

"Your Majesty is now a concubine, so it is naturally different from before." Nian Xuan persuaded her, "If you like to be lively, the birthday of the Empress Dowager is next month. The servant girl heard that it will be a big event this time."

Yun Fenghuang sighed: "Is that so? Then Yuan Niangniang may be able to show off again..."

How is this bitch so lucky? !

It's really enviable and jealous!

The master and servant were muttering, and it took a long time for someone to clean up.

At this time, the banquet ahead was not over yet, Yun Fenghuang held Nian Xuan's hand and went for a walk to digest food, but heard the faint sound of silk and bamboo.

She raised her eyebrows and asked the servants here in the villa: "There are still musicians here?"

"Returning to Empress Jieyu, I didn't have it. It was sent by the Prince Regent's son two days ago." The waiters here in the villa are actually palace people, but they only see the nobleman for a few days throughout the year, and they are a little nervous when they are questioned. Said, "It is said that it was transferred from the Jiaofang Division."

Yun Fenghuang asked casually: "Then there are also Kabuki performers? How about their skills? Are they beautiful?"

The waiter was more cautious: "Hui, Hui Niangniang's words, the servant girl hasn't read it, no, I don't know very well."

What are you afraid of?

Is it possible that the palace is so generous, that it's just longing for everyone in the palace to be happy, and also jealous of some Jiaofangsi's stuff?

Yun Fenghuang slandered in his heart and didn't mean to explain, he waved her hand to let her go down, and just said to Nian Xuan: "Go back and find out, if those tricksters are okay, let them come to relieve my boredom the next day. "

Nian Xuan smiled and said: "Do you have that much skill? I didn't work too hard today. Waiting for tomorrow, when His Majesty goes hunting, can you accompany me? When the day comes, the bones will almost fall apart. Can you watch the dance?"

Yun Fenghuang thought about it, and said again: "Isn't Mrs. Yaoning here? When she is with His Majesty, can I go to the singing and dancing?"

Just as they were talking and laughing, an unfamiliar palace servant walked over from a distance, looking like he was dressed as a waiter in the Chunban Villa, and he went nearby to have a blessing with Yun Fenghuang, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, let's go outside." One of the guards said that he was entrusted by a young father-in-law to deliver this letter to the empress."

As he spoke, he took out a wax-sealed letterhead, on which was written a line of flying dragons, probably like Yun Fenghuang's personal teardown.

Yun Fenghuang raised his eyebrows, but didn't answer, and asked first: "What kind of guard? What kind of little eunuch?"

The palace man said blankly: "This... the maid didn't pay attention."

"Then you don't need to give it to me." Yun Fenghuang said with a smile, "Just give it to Your Majesty. As a concubine, I have always been cautious in my words and deeds. How could I want such an unknown thing? Privately. Giving and receiving is not the rule that palace people should have, is it?"

The palace attendant froze, seeing that Yun Fenghuang had walked away slowly, he didn't care, he hesitated for a while, finally blessed, turned and left.

As soon as she left, Nian Xuan reminded anxiously: "Mother, the words on the letter paper seem to be... yes..."

"It belongs to Qi Jiulu?" Yun Fenghuang sneered, "I can tell, that's why I didn't accept it... You don't even think about whose site this Chunban Villa belongs to? It was built with the money from the Empress Dowager Yuan's private house, and it is specially for His Majesty to rest. You The person serving here, whether it is the Empress Dowager Yuan or Your Majesty, will let other people intervene?! If the things outside can be handed in so easily, the assassin still needs to take advantage of the opportunity of the empress dowager's illness to set up an ambush halfway?"

"But didn't the Prince Regent come here to prepare just now?" Nian Xuan whispered, "Young Master Qi is now working with the Prince Regent..."

Maybe he used the power of the Prince Regent's son to bribe someone to deliver the message?

"That's true, but how do you know that this isn't Yuan's way of trying to catch Ben Gong, so they're just planning?" Yun Fenghuang said lazily, "Anyway, be careful when sailing for thousands of years—Ben Gong doesn't want this. Before the show started, it was easily cheated by someone!"

Nian Xuan opened her mouth, looked around for a long time, and Fang Na said: "Then... If it was really written by Mr. Qi, you have someone hand it over to His Majesty, what???"

What will Mr. Qi do!
