Chapter 53 Master Yu's Cultivation Plan
At the time of Caiyin, Yu Yun was woken up early by Su Ni, burned incense and bathed, dressed, with a proper belt, accessories, and solemn court clothes, and went outside the door early to wait for the father-in-law who came to pick him up from the palace .
Su Ni lowered her head, her long brown slightly curly hair was braided, with a few gemstones falling behind her head, and a pair of extremely beautiful peacock blue eyes were embedded in the eye sockets, which were deeper than those of Zhaodu women, and her two thin eyebrows were also beautiful. Unlike many Central Plains women who bend into a soft willow leaf, they are much more heroic.It seems that she is far from being an ordinary girl, but like a girl who is good at singing and dancing from a foreign race sent to the court every year. Even if the adults in the court see her once, she will talk to others with great interest. of.
She led Yu Miao and stood behind Yu Yun. Yu Miao was still in a daze because he hadn't woken up, but when he heard the sound of the wheels approaching in the distance, he forced himself to stand up obediently , make a pleasing look.
The carriage was sewed with silver thread, and the wooden carriage was separated by neat square holes for ventilation, and because winter was about to begin, the carriage was covered with a layer of leather, inlaid with glass, embroidered with jewels, topped with tassels, and tassels. Luxurious but unassuming.
Although Yu's family can be regarded as the well-known family of Zhongming Dingshi in Zhaodu, Yu Yun can barely be regarded as a Wuling boy with a lot of jade embroidery. Said that on weekdays, they can only ride in a carriage surrounded by soapy blue cotton cloth.
"Elder-in-law has worked hard."
The carriage settled down, and the steward standing beside Yu Yun immediately walked forward with a smile on his face, took out a money bag embroidered with auspicious wishes from his sleeve, and handed it to the man in the blue eunuch uniform.The eunuch picked it up, and seemed quite satisfied with the weight, so he said to Yu Yun very politely:
"Master Yu has been waiting for a long time."
Yu Yun smiled slightly, the people in this palace are no different than those outside, Yu Yun is always more careful in speaking and doing things.
"My father-in-law is serious. It is hard work for my father-in-law to pick me up so early."
After the father-in-law heard what he said, he felt that the fourth son who had just returned from the Yu family was likable in what he did and said, so he bent down and said, "Master Yu, please."
Only then did Yu Yun take Yu Miao and get into the carriage. The carriage went smoothly all the way. There were still few people on the street at this time, but the morning light was shining through the curtains, through the delicate embroidery patterns on the curtains and the occasional sights of ordinary people on the road. These admiring noises permeate the skin together with the cool dew and the smell of rising fireworks.
Qiangzi suppressed the anxiety in his heart, changed the carriage, passed the palace gate, and was led by the father-in-law to the Anyi Hall where the concubine received relatives.
Concubine De was originally the elder sister of Yu Yun's same mother, but she followed her mother and the master of the Yu family, together with many of Yu Yun's younger brothers and sisters, and was not in Zhaodu all the year round, so she was not particularly close.A few years ago, Yu Yun was sent out to manage the Yu family's business in the south of the Yangtze River, and he did very well. This attracted the attention of the Yu family's master and asked the Yu family's elder brother to call him back to Beijing.
Thinking that winter is coming soon, Yu Yun was afraid that the road would be cold and bumpy. It would be bad if Yu Miao got sick on the road, so he hurried back all the way. It turned out that Yu Hao and Master Yu had arranged with him a long time ago in Zhaodu. On an errand, after finding the yard to settle down, and to work honestly for a few days at my idle job, I finally came to the palace to visit Concubine De in my spare time.
Followed the father-in-law around the palace, did not dare to raise his head to look around, just buried his head and walked all the way, when he arrived at a place, the father-in-law raised the curtain and let Yu Yun and Yu Miao go in and wait, then bowed his head and retreated up.
The room was scented with incense, and a lot of heat came out of the copper stove, which drove away a little bit of the chill in the morning, but made Yu Yun, who had walked through most of the palace, a bit hotter.
Yu Miao didn't dare to speak loudly, but tugged at Yu Yun's sleeve, pursed his lips, and looked unhappy, Yu Yun gave him a funny look, and sat down obediently again.
Speaking of it, it is extremely difficult for a female family member in the palace to get visits from her father and brother at home. Even if she has achieved a few ranks of empresses and nobles, she still needs to be pleased by the emperor and be favored so that she can see her.But it is also because the late emperor did not clean up the many complicated dogmas in the palace, and most of them were passed down from the ancestors, but they were somewhat relaxed, so Yu Yun came to see Yu Han this time, it was a lot easier.
After a while, the eunuch called the name outside the door, and a pair of bare hands picked up the curtain, and then a woman in purple palace attire came in, with ruby-studded red silver tinsel in her hair, her appearance was very similar to Yu Yun's. It seems that a palm-sized oval face is as beautiful as it is beautiful. It does not have the refined temperament implied by Yu Yun, but it looks more calm and sharp.
"Yu Yun, Yu Miao has met the concubine, the empress, the empress is blessed and safe."
As soon as Yu Yun finished speaking, the lady in palace attire quickly stepped forward to gently help her up, but her tone was rather gentle.
"Although you haven't seen Ben Gong for many years, don't be too restrained." After finishing speaking, a maid beside him led Yu Yun and the two to sit on the soft couch.
Only then did Yu Yun look up at Yu Han, his sister who was only a year older than him chuckled and teased Yu Miao.
"I haven't seen this child yet, but he's already this big."
After exchanging pleasantries, Yu Yun asked the maid to take Yu Miao out for a tour in the courtyard, and then Yu Yun spoke.
"Your Majesty, Yu Yun came to see your Majesty this time, but he also listened to what your elder brother said, and came to see how your Majesty is doing recently."
Concubine De raised her eyes, her brows were calm but beautiful.She lowered her hand to caress her lower abdomen, and her tone became lighter:
"My palace is fine, I have already told the emperor, but the emperor didn't mean to be unhappy, just told me to take care of it at ease."
"That's good, so my younger brother and elder brother can rest assured."
Concubine De and Yu Yun chatted about some irrelevant things in the palace, and then she suddenly remembered something and said to Yu Yun: "I remember that you are Shanqin."
Yu Yun didn't know why she brought it up, so he replied: "I know a little bit." Presumably he really didn't know it in modern times, but when he came here, he suddenly mastered it, and felt that he was a bit like a master, even Yu Miao often asked Yu Yun Play some songs.
Concubine De said with satisfaction: "That's good. The crown prince is looking for a teacher who can teach playing the piano. I have selected some, but the emperor is very concerned. He wants to pick it himself, so I added you. If you can be selected, even if it is not a big official position, it is much better than staying in that idle position."
"My brother Xie Niangniang is worried."
"Also, you have to be more careful with Yu Miao these days. There used to be a member of the Liu family in the Prince's Companion, but that child has a bad temper. The Queen Mother didn't say it. Although the Emperor is not the Queen Mother's own child, he knows the Queen Mother's thoughts." Yes, thinking about it, I won’t be able to stay with the prince for too long. There are indeed quite a few qualified children of the right age in Beijing. Although Yu Miao is a little younger, he is not without opportunities. If he is selected, it will also help him in the future.”
After hearing this, Yu Yun had some considerations in his heart. The future is indeed boundless with the prince, but there are always many other things to come.Originally, he only wanted Yu Miao to be happy, and many things, as long as they were not too much, Yu Yun would relax on him.He also had to ask Yu Miao about this matter, he never wanted to make any decisions for him.
"I know what you think, but you always have to know." Concubine De looked at Yu Yun, but her brows and eyes were as solemn as Yu Hao's usual.
"This child has a special status. I don't want to say more, but you can't protect him forever."
After leaving the small hall dedicated to receiving outsiders, Yu Yun took Yu Miao and followed another father-in-law out.
After walking around a field of hibiscus and hibiscus that were about to fail, a little eunuch suddenly ran out of the front corner in a hurry.Without noticing for a while, he bumped into Yu Yun's full arms.
When Yu Yun was bumped by him, he was afraid of hurting Yu Miao who was standing beside him, so he had no choice but to obey him and was knocked down to the ground all at once.Although Yu Miao was frightened, he hurriedly tried to pull Yu Yun up.
The little eunuch reacted quickly, stood up quickly and helped Yu Yun up.I just saw that stones had rubbed against Yu Yun's hands, some of them were even torn and bleeding, but Yu Yun's head was still dizzy, and when he stood up at this moment, he felt a burning pain in his knees.
Zhao Quan is a newcomer, because the master he followed was considered to be serving the emperor, so he found a good job as a rough envoy by the prince's side.Originally, this person was smooth and clever, but sometimes he couldn't help being rough.Today, the queen mother was in a good mood and invited the prince to sit in the imperial garden together. Zhao Quan just went back to Jinghe Palace to fetch a small item for the prince that the maid accidentally dropped.Unfortunately, he bumped into someone from outside the palace. Although he was not an important person in the court, Zhao Quan thought that today happened to be the day when Concubine De's family entered the palace, so he didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly apologized:
"My lord, Zhao Quan should be damned. I bumped into my lord, but my lord can still walk a few steps. Zhao Quan hastily asked someone from the Tai Hospital to see if there is any serious problem."
It was just a scratch at first, and Yu Yun didn't take it too seriously, just when he was about to say nothing, he saw the little eunuch's expression change, and he bent down in a panic.
A few clusters of flowers in the distance were already dying, with pale yellow leaves hidden behind a cluster of pale pink hibiscus.There was a thin layer of soft light, and the clean and warm sunlight in the afternoon and the smell of grass and trees greeted the majestic golden dragon, only a slight sweep, but the chill and sharp coldness were wrapped around, and the autumn day faded away. There was only a bit of laziness left in the day, and fear suddenly arose.Probably because of his outstanding appearance, the tall and slender figure of that man was imprinted in that hasty glance, and an unspeakable hesitation arose in his heart.
At this moment, Yu Yun, who was in a state of distress, had no time to worry about it, so he hurriedly pulled Yu Miao to kneel down to salute.
"Long live the emperor."
Looking down, in sight, the pair of black boots were about to be stepped on, but they stopped suddenly when they landed on Yu Yun's side.
He heard someone behind the man ask suspiciously, "Your Majesty?"
But Yu Yun only felt that there was a line of sight falling beside him with scrutiny.
"It's the relatives of Concubine De." This is the young emperor who ascended the throne and ruled over Qi An Zhaozheng, even speaking with a cold air.A lot of messy thoughts flashed through Yu Yun's mind, and he replied respectfully.
"If you go back to the emperor, Yu Yun is the younger brother of Empress Defei."
And these words have no beginning and no end, and the footsteps of the crowd left, only Yu Jinyi Fanzhi curled up a cold plum fragrance and passed by the tip of his nose, leaving behind such embarrassing feelings in this bitter and cold season. The palpitation of the cold touch, just for a moment, then disappeared again.
Thinking about it now, everything was preordained.It used to be that the path was red and sparse, and the incense burner was spinning quietly, but unexpectedly, I woke up from a dream, and I woke up as early as then.
Yu Yun stood up silently, and when he was about to leave, a little eunuch ran over there, Zhao Quan just raised his head, when he saw the little eunuch, he hurriedly lowered his head respectfully.
"Eunuch Quan Xi."
"The emperor said that since he is a relative of Concubine De, let's go with the Empress Dowager."
Yu Yun bowed his head and agreed, thinking that this young father-in-law might be serving by the emperor's side, so he didn't dare to say anything, took a piece of handkerchief to wipe his hands, hurriedly arranged his robes, and followed the Quanxi father-in-law. .
In order to enter the palace to meet the concubine De, Yu Yun wore court clothes according to etiquette, yellow and green woven into two-color flower brocade ribbons, and at this moment he just stood there with his head bowed. His eyes swept away.
It's very lively here.
The flowers are still the ones that are in season, a few scattered, and the blooming is not considered coquettish.The scenery in the autumn is all quiet and quiet, so as not to be swept away by the few unsightly autumn winds, and turn into a few petals appreciated by the ignorant men and women in the deep palace. In some gloomy well.
Originally, only the queen mother and the prince were here, and the rest were just women in the palace. Just now the emperor passed by, and he brought An Xiang and several young officials of the new department with him.Fen Dai was smiling, young and talented, dressed like a cloud, and a crowd of people gathered together, which suddenly made this place a bit more interesting.
Concubine De called softly, and Yu Miao trotted towards Concubine De.Yu Yun only followed the group of upstarts in the court, and stood silently outside the pavilion where the empress dowager and the concubines were.
Zhaozheng is far less strict than how many dynasties in Yu Yun's memory are strict in the defense of men and women. Although it is rare for the monarch and ministers to be together at this time, it does not appear to be beyond the norm.
And that Yu Miao was sitting obediently next to Concubine De, only felt that the extremely beautiful lady next to the emperor was fragrant and gorgeous, although she was not as young as the aunt, she was really good-looking, and she couldn't help but be stared at by that lady, He had no choice but to show a pleasing smile, which made the man's expression a little softer.
Everyone chatted for a while, only to hear a woman say:
"I heard that the emperor got a guqin a few days ago, which was lost in the palace a few years ago."
Then someone answered: "That's right, Sister Wan loves the piano, I'm afraid I've been looking forward to seeing you for a few days." Before the words finished, she also laughed out loud, with a hint of intimacy.
It was quiet there for a moment, but I heard the first person here to speak, the voice was very clear, like a soft wind blowing, it made people feel good.
"The emperor just gave it to my minister a few days ago. If the empress wishes, can I ask someone from the emperor to bring it?"
Yu Yun was stunned for a while, but the tone in his tone had nothing to do with the emperor. Just as he was curious, he suddenly remembered that it was said that both the late emperor and Jing emperor liked newcomers. As a prime minister, it was not unusual for An Ran to be an extreme minister at such a young age.But there are many rumors in the market that Emperor Jing's succession has been suspended for many years, and An Xiang is probably different from the former emperor and Qi Xiang, who are full of affection between the emperor and his ministers.
Concubine De also mentioned that Prime Minister An also set up a residence in the palace.
In this way, Yu Yun understood that these soft words were not as light as they appeared on the face.
The emperor probably didn't speak, but he ordered people to go.
After this passage, no one in the booth made a sound for a long time.There were only the sounds of maids walking around refilling tea, and a few rings of female relatives ringing softly.
"Grandmother thinks this tea is good."
The young man was sitting not far from Yu Miao, next to the woman in the crimson palace attire, the teenage boy was dressed in an apricot-yellow golden dragon brocade suit with four claws embroidered. Yu Miao only looked up and knew it must be East Palace Prince Zhengyu is correct.
"The taste of this general cold is good, but Aijia feels that it is still a bit astringent in autumn."
And this voice belonged to that extremely beautiful woman.Yu Miao was stunned for a moment, he was still a child after all, he just thought whether all the empresses in the palace looked so young, and the queen mother got special preferential treatment from time.
"I heard that this Puhan tea is produced in Rushui. When it is said that Rushui is grown there, the tea leaves also smell of clean morning dew. The young master of the Yu family just came back from Jiangnan, has he ever been to Rushui?"
The young man's voice was clearer and more stable, and it was not as chilling as the previous emperor's. Yu Yun still raised it abruptly, fearing that Yu Miao had said something wrong.
"Ru Shui is really good, but Dad only took me there once, and Yu Miao only remembers that the lotus root rounds are very sweet." A little bit of greed, which attracted the gentle smiles of the surrounding female family members, but made the atmosphere a bit more lively.
He breathed a sigh of relief, and after a while, a eunuch brought the piano and found a place in front of the court to set it up.Yu Yun just watched silently, feeling even more uneasy.
Sure enough, those empresses were just praising Guqin a few words at first, but the conversation gradually and subtly led to An Xiang.
Concubine De only slightly pursed her lips, a little tea melted on the tip of her tongue, interrupted nobleman Wan leisurely, and said:
"Speaking of An Xiang's qin art, everyone knows that it is excellent. Originally, the prince was very interested in qin art and was about to find another wife. It's just that An Xiang assisted the emperor and worried about the country's affairs. I can't do this anymore. It’s hard work. The emperor and his concubine decided some candidates a few days ago, and it just so happened that Lord Xu and Lord Wang are both here, and they happened to play the piano casually, how about letting the prince see it?"
After hearing this over there, Mrs. Wangui and the others also agreed with Zhiqu, and did not mention An Xiang, and the emperor also restrained his already somewhat unhappy expression.But before the two young Scholars stepped forward, Concubine De said slowly:
"It's just that my concubine has an unfeeling request. My younger brother has just arrived in the capital recently, and the elder sister knows him. Others must not be as good as those of the adults. It's just that the piano art can barely catch my ears, so I don't care about it." Want to get him a job."
These words were just ordinary, but they woke up Yu Yun who was just in a daze in the back row and even worried about Yu Miao.
In a place where no one was around, he showed a bit of bitterness on his face. He only said that it was an imperial occasion, and he was already concerned about it, but now he was going to make a fool of himself in public, and he felt a little more disturbed.
However, he couldn't evade it, so he had no choice but to take a step forward. He was very polite, and he didn't even dare to lift his head:
"Yu Yun made a fool of himself."
He plucked the strings casually, and it was indeed a good piano.Just follow a tune in memory.This is what Yu Miao likes to listen to, although he can't remember the name of this song, but it is also considered his good at it.
The lyrics and music were originally long and sad, Yu Yun didn't have time to think about it, and it was already getting better, but there was a cracking sound, Yu Yun stopped the sound for a while, raised his head, the secret color porcelain cup shattered on the ground, everyone was shocked It's holding your breath.
His mind shrugged, and he quickly got up to apologize, but the high-ranking person who dropped the cup didn't get angry, he just dealt with it a few words, and the fight broke up for no reason.
