Chapter 302 Yu Wenye, neither...
Chu Yang’s face immediately darkened.
But the Jade Eunuch was so frightened that he hurriedly confessed: "I have behaved improperly before the emperor. I deserve to die. Please forgive me."
"..."
Chu Yangwei She squinted her eyes and looked at him for a while, then said coldly: "You are too old after all to be so impatient even doing such a small thing."
Eunuch Jade kowtowed repeatedly: "This slave deserves to die, this slave deserves to die."
Shang Ruyi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, please forgive Eunuch Yu. He is old and his hands and feet are not so convenient."
Chu Yang was still looking at Eunuch Yu who was kneeling on the ground. After a while, Then he said with a smile but not a smile: "Someone is interceding for you, why don't you thank me quickly."
Eunuch Yu then turned to Shang Ruyi and said, "Thank you so much, Madam."
>Chu Yang waved his hand coldly: "Go down and do your business."
Eunuch Yu seemed to have saved his life from the gate of hell. He got up from the ground in a cold sweat and retreated - but before he left, his shining little eyes glanced at Shang Ruyi, and then , lowered his head and closed the door.
Shang Ruyi's heart moved slightly.
At this time, Chu Yang turned to look at her: "What did you want to tell me just now?"
Shang Ruyi thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It's nothing."
Chu Yang looked at her for a while. There seemed to be a smile on that handsome face, but there was no smile at all in his slender eyes. He stood up slowly and said, "Since it's nothing, let's go and accompany me to the garden."
Shang Ruyi did not dare to neglect and stood up in a hurry: "Yes."
On this day, the two of them played in the picturesque back garden of the inner palace for a long time, waiting for the sun to set, and the setting sun illuminated the bluestone floor. It was all burning red, and Shang Ruyi dragged his tired body back to the palace. Wuxue had already had hot water prepared for her to clean, and after a while of cleaning up, dinner was delivered.
There is still a table full of exquisite and eye-popping dishes.
Shang Ruyi couldn't help but frown.
Although she was so tired and she was indeed hungry, she had no appetite when she picked up the bowls and chopsticks. Instead, she felt as if her chest was blocked by a big stone. At this time, Eunuch Yu brought a bowl of soup and medicine to her with a young eunuch, and said with a smile: "This is your Majesty's order, so that the young lady must use it after the meal."
Shang Ruyi said: "My body has recovered."
Yu Gonggong said: "My body has recovered. This medicine is to strengthen the foundation and strengthen the body. The young lady's fatigue from traveling and traveling a few days ago has damaged her vitality. If If you don't make up for it properly, it won't be good for you in the future."
Hearing this, Shang Ruyi could only nod and said: "Put it down."
So, the little eunuch put down the medicine bowl and turned around. Withdrew.
Eunuch Yu saluted and was about to leave. Shang Ruyi stopped him and signaled Wuxue and the other maids who were serving around her to leave. After they all left, she He asked softly: "Father-in-law, why did you stop me today?"
Eunuch Yu glanced at her, only smiled and said nothing.
Shang Ruyi said: "Although my father-in-law is old, he is not an impatient person, and he will not make mistakes such as disrespect for the emperor. At that time, my father-in-law did not want me to finish what I said and deliberately interrupted me. Right? ”
“…”< br>
“Can’t you say those words?”
Eunuch Yu looked at her for a while, and finally sighed and said softly: “In the past few days since you came to Jiangdu Palace, have you ever taken a step forward? One step past the palace gate?”
Shang Ruyi shook his head.
Let alone stepping out of the palace gate, she had never even seen the palace gate of Jiangdu Palace, let alone the outside world. This made Chu Yang dream about it, and she even wrote a poem and sang "Good Dreams Old" "Chen Se, why should I be trapped in Youchao?" What is Jiangnan like?
Yu Gonggong said: "Young Madam has never even left the palace, and she knows about vegetables and food. How can those ministers in the court who worry about the country day and night not know? Do they? Don’t you know how to advise the emperor? "
Shang Ruyi said: "My father-in-law said that someone has already said it?"
Eunuch Yu sighed: "Not only has someone said it, but more than one person has said it. .”
"Then -"
"Master Nayanji contradicted the emperor and was beheaded; the Minister of Rites, Su Shilang, remonstrated with His Majesty and has now been demoted to the third level; there are still a few people who spoke lightly and are in prison."
"..."
A ray of fiery red sunset outside the window shone on Shang Ruyi's pale face, clearly illuminating the loss and helplessness in her eyes. She opened her mouth, and after a while, she said calmly: "Your Majesty, you don't want to listen?"
Eunuch Yu only smiled bitterly.
He turned around and said: "My servant stopped the young lady because I didn't want the young lady to do useless work, because neither His Majesty nor the ministers in the court can actually think of any solution to this matter. The only way -"
Shang Ruyi looked at him with gleaming eyes: "What is it?"
Gonggong Yu said: "As mentioned by Mr. Ji who was beheaded, His Majesty can no longer stay in Jiangdu. He should immediately regain his strength, send his army northward, and return to Luoyang to recapture the Eastern Capital."
"..."
Hearing this, Shang Ruyi sighed helplessly in his heart.
After hearing these words, she also understood why Master Ji was beheaded.
This is indeed the only feasible way in front of him, but he wants the emperor to give up his attitude of escaping, and even wants him to return to Luoyang to face his failures and mistakes. How could he not do this? What about annoying Chu Yang and causing death? Eunuch Yu continued: "I don't want the young lady to offend your majesty, which will be of no use to you; and your majesty is angry with the young lady - the young lady has a special status, so she may not be punished like those adults, but the unlucky one will not Know who it is."< br>
“...”
“Furthermore, it is not just Jiangdu’s affairs that His Majesty refuses to listen to or read. Now, His Majesty does not even listen to the battle report sent back from Luoyang. Saw it.”
"Luoyang battle report?"
Shang Ruyi's heart couldn't help but beat again.
She took a deep breath, tried her best to look and sound calm as usual, and asked: "Over there, how are things going now?"
Eunuch Yu smiled bitterly. Said: "We don't know the specifics, it's just that I heard that after Liang Shide captured Luoyang, he captured several cities one after another, and no one in the surrounding counties could resist them. Now, they are the most powerful force among the rebels."
“…”
Shang Ruyi's heart tightened.
Liang Shide was unstoppable, that is to say, his military operations encountered no obstacles.
No one can stop him.
Yu Wenye, neither...
How is he doing now?
Has he returned to Taiyuan with the people he cares about and lived the life they wanted to live; or has he died due to excessive blood loss and serious injuries that are difficult to treat——
This question is like a knife in the heart. Just thinking about it, he dug deeper. Shang Ruyi breathed quickly and his face turned pale. He could only hold on to the edge of the table with both hands to barely support himself.
Looking at her difficulty in breathing, Eunuch Yu was thoughtful.
After a long while, he said: "Young madam, please take care."
Shang Ruyi finally calmed down his heartbeat and breathing, looked up at him again, and could only say feebly: " Thank you for your concern, father-in-law. I understand everything you said.”
"..."
"But if Your Majesty doesn't listen to these things, then I don't know what else I can advise Your Majesty."
Hearing this, Eunuch Yu said again He smiled bitterly.
He said: "At this time, the only thing I can do is not to make His Majesty unhappy and take care of myself."
After saying that, he said: Li, turned around and left.
Shang Ruyi watched his back disappear into the fiery sunset. After a long time, he lowered his head and looked at the disgustingly exquisite dishes on the table. Then he picked up the bowls and chopsticks and started to eat them.
By the time she finished her dinner, it was getting dark.
The sounds of various palace doors closing slowly sounded around the huge Jiangdu Palace. The hoarse long roar in the night was like the roar of strange beasts. When the heavy palace doors closed, there was a loud and muffled sound. , everything returned to peace.
Only tonight, it’s not so peaceful.
In the square in front of the main hall of Jiangdu Palace, the imperial guards were patrolling in formation and walked to the bright door due south. This palace gate is the largest after entering Jiangdu Palace, and it is also the gate that leads directly to the square in front of the main hall. It is still open at this moment. He immediately said: "What's going on? Why is the palace gate not closed yet?"
No one answered them.
The guards shouted louder: "Are they dead? Are all the guards at Jiangdu Palace dead?"
In the midst of their shouts, a group of people suddenly Running hurriedly from outside, it was Jiangdu Palace guards. They had just closed the palace doors on the left and right sides of the square, and finally closed them. This time, I was only a few steps behind, and I heard the dirty shouts of those people, and immediately said angrily: "Why are you scolding people!"
"What's wrong with scolding you? The coffin is not soft." You can do things without getting scolded?”
“You are the dead ones!”
Seeing that both sides were about to take action, Cheng Qiao walked up, stretched out his hand to stop his men, looked at the guards, and said calmly: "Several of our brothers were hit with military sticks today and couldn't get up. We’re short of manpower, so we’re here a little late. Please be quiet.”
“What’s wrong with being beaten?” >
A general on the Guards side sneered: "Been beaten with a military stick? Our brothers were hurt by you and received a knife! Instead, you cried out in front of us."
< br>Cheng Qiao glanced at them and saw that these people were deliberately looking for trouble, but it was past the closing time and could not be delayed any longer. So he stopped arguing and just turned around and waved: "Close the door and lock it."
His men came over immediately and pushed the two heavy palace doors slowly to close.
With great difficulty, the palace door was finally closed.
However, the guards standing inside the door had ferocious faces and fierce eyes.
When everyone outside had left, they were still standing at the gate of the palace. Several of them were aggrieved and said to the general: "Brother, you really shouldn't have talked nonsense with those people just now. You should be fine." Teach them a lesson. We cannot swallow the fact that so many brothers were beheaded and their homes were confiscated. Take this breath!”
At this time, a cold voice sounded from the crowd-
“If you can’t take this breath, just beat these people to relieve your anger. Who is it that makes us suffer? Don’t you know the grievances? ”
