Chapter 26 26
The weather is just right these few days, and Da Yin prepares the Flower God Banquet every year at this time, and this year is no exception.
Shi Jiben proposed to say goodbye, but was blocked by the Empress Dowager Yin.
Seeing this, Yin Huai pretended to persuade a few words, "There is no need for the national teacher to be too polite, the scenery in spring is beautiful, and it is a good time to enjoy flowers, it would be a pity not to see them."
Shi Jiji glanced at him, was slightly taken aback, then lowered his eyes lightly, and didn't speak any more.
But everyone also knew that he meant this by default,
The Flower God Banquet is held on Penglai Island, a summer resort. Said Island is actually a small island surrounded by water, and it can be reached from Yindu along the waterway.
After getting off the boat, we came to Penglai Prefecture, and the surrounding water was covered with green lotus leaves.It's just that it's not yet midsummer, and the lotus buds of Daifen haven't bloomed yet.
The banquet is set on the waterside pavilion, surrounded by colorful flowers, veils fluttering in the wind, and the moisture beside the water is very cool.
Yin Huai sat on the high seat, listening to the Empress Dowager Yin talking about the scene as usual.I also said a few words, and the ministers raised their glasses to toast.
Before the banquet, palace officials filed in, holding a tray with clean pens, inks, papers and inkstones inside, requiring those present to draw their favorite flowers, and then choose the flower god.
Liu Ze took the paper and inkstone, and smiled at Gong'e, smiling like a warm spring breeze.
"Thank you."
Gong'e blushed.
Ordinary people couldn't get close to Shi Jiji's body, before the tray was presented to him, he was stopped by the attendant beside him, and he presented it by himself.
Only Yin Yubei carelessly rested his palm with one hand, his eyelids were slightly closed, and a palace lady walked in beside him, but he didn't even lift his eyelids, caressing a jade pendant absent-mindedly in his hand.
The jade pendant is white all over, it looks like it is often held and rubbed by people, the jade is translucent, smooth and round.
"His Royal Highness, please..."
After saying these words, Gong'e left as quickly as if she was fleeing.
Only then did Yin Yubei slowly open his eyes, revealing those dark and cold eyes.
Yin Huai was caught off guard and met his gaze.
For some reason, this time it was Yin Yubei who took the lead to look away. He looked down at the wine cup in front of him with an unclear expression.
People around him had already started to draw with their pens, but he sat motionless and did not pick up his pen for a long time.
It wasn't until someone urged him in a low voice that he glanced over indifferently, and the person immediately fell silent.
His gaze lowered slightly again, and landed on the snow-white rice paper placed in front of him.
The brush was dipped in ink, and then it was faintly smudged on the snow-white rice paper, with a focused expression.
After an unknown amount of time, he put down his brush, flattened the rice paper and pressed it down with an inkstone.
Yin Huai didn't know how to draw, so he simply showed his style at this time, and kept silent and didn't move his pen. After waiting for half a cup of tea, everyone at the banquet finally finished drawing, and it was up to Yin Huai to comment on them one by one.
Yin Huai's comments were quite perfunctory, but of course others didn't dare to say anything, and even had to echo him a few times.
What Liu Ze painted was orchids, he was worthy of being the number one scholar, and his ink painting skills were unmatched by ordinary people.
He perfunctorily praised him a few words, "It is rumored that Liu Xiangsu is good at painting, and his reputation is indeed well-deserved."
Liu Ze smiled warmly, "Thank you Your Majesty for the compliment."
Yin Huai's eyes fell on Yin Yubei's painting again, and he couldn't help being slightly startled, seeing the red plums on the paper were so lifelike, standing proudly on the branches.
Then he subconsciously looked towards Changshan.
Is it a coincidence?
What he painted happened to be Chang Shan's favorite red plum. Back then, because Chang Shan liked plums, Yin Yubei ordered the palace to be filled with red plums, and assigned special personnel to guard them, just to make her smile.
Sure enough, the two are already entangled?
Thinking of this, Yin Huai frowned slightly, that Chang Shan probably doesn't like herself now.
The two of them had hardly even communicated with each other, and Chang Shan also acted gracefully in front of him, as if he didn't seem to be interested in him.
So he tentatively said in a slow voice: "I didn't expect King Yu to like Hongmei."
Yin Yubei frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice, "I just think it's different from other flowers."
Hearing this unclear answer, Yin Huai frowned slightly.
Banquets are always the same, and the only thing worth mentioning is the graceful appearance of the central dancer.
The thirteen dancers represent the flowers of the thirteen seasons. They dance lightly with their feet light and graceful, with different expressions.
Yin Huai's attention was attracted by one of the girls in red.
The temperature is so hot now, but she is wearing a water-red cloak, with gorgeous flower tinsel between her eyebrows, holding a plum blossom, she should be dressed as a red plum fairy.
Fairy or not, Yin Huai doesn't know, he just feels dedicated.
It seems that I am still not enlightened enough, there are people outside the mountains, and I am not dedicated enough to be a dog emperor.
The Empress Dowager Yin noticed Yin Huai's attention, her eyes flashed, her face remained calm, and when the dance was over, she said to Yin Huai with a smile: "Calculate the days, Huai'er should be an adult this year, it's not a matter of marrying the concubine." Don’t worry, but in the end you still need someone to accompany you.”
As soon as these words came out, there seemed to be a moment of silence in the arena.
Yin Yubei raised his glass for a moment, then raised his eyes and looked straight at the past, with unclear meaning in his eyes.
When Yin Huai heard this, his forehead twitched, and he cried inwardly that something was wrong.
Sure enough, the next second the Queen Mother beckoned the dancing girl to come forward, smiled and asked, "Good boy, what's your name?"
"The servant Ningchun, Aunt Fang learned how to dance."
"You are really pretty, no wonder Huai'er looked at you a few more times."
Yin Huai opened his eyes slightly, feeling very wronged, but the Empress Dowager Yin didn't give him any chance to speak at all, so he just made a decision and decided the matter.
Yin Huai's heart was full of alarm bells. This matter was definitely tricky. The Empress Dowager Yin always didn't want to have an affair with others. She wished she could die as a baby, so as not to give birth to another prince and disrupt her plan.
Now his attitude has changed drastically, he would not believe it even if he said it was kind.
"No, although she is outstanding, she is not my favorite."
Empress Dowager Yin frowned slightly, her tone was already displeased, "Then what kind of woman do you like?"
Yin Huai sighed, took Pingxi's hand, touched it up and down, then squeezed it again, with an ambiguous tone, "Hey, you don't know about it, Queen Mother."
After hearing these words, Mrs. Yin's face was ashen, and Ping Xi, who was being held by hand, was also ashen.
Liu Ze who was sitting down took a sip of his wine with downcast eyes, a slight smile on his lips, although it was also a smile, it seemed to be different from the previous one.
An official next to Yin Huai sighed to his colleagues, "The Empress Dowager's eyesight is indeed good. Just now, the woman holding the red plum in her hand is really like a fairy transformed from snowy red plum."
Yin Yubei's face was cold and indifferent, and his gaze swept in that direction lightly.
The official was startled for a moment, he thought it was Yin Yubei who disagreed with his words, so he said cautiously: "Could it be that the prince has seen more beautiful ones?"
Yin Yubei played with the wine cup with lowered eyes, and the scene of the man standing under the red plum tree inexplicably appeared in his mind.
He took the plum branch he handed over, and the white breath from his breath covered his thick and beautiful face.
There is only a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes, looking at herself with sparkle.
Thinking of this, Yin Yubei frowned, as if he didn't understand why he suddenly thought of this scene.
"My lord?"
Seeing that Yin Yubei was silent, the person next to him called again, "What's the matter?"
Yin Yubei came back to his senses, and looked back lukewarmly, "It's incomparable."
It's just a difference between cloud and mud.
On Penglai Island, there are small water pavilions specially built for dignitaries and nobles to take a break. Yin Huai lives in an even more unusual one. The attic in the center is his small residence.
The area of Penglai Island is not small, there are hundreds of flowers blooming around the attic where Yin Huai lives, and there is a large forest not far away, and there is a large green lake in the middle of the forest.
It was night, Yin Huai came out to relax, with only Zhong Cang by his side, because what he did during the day left a deep shadow on Ping Xi.
For some reason recently, Chong Cang looked preoccupied and was always in a daze, and Yin Huai noticed that he was avoiding contact with himself intentionally or unintentionally.
Not far from the lakeside, there is a tall building with four corners, cornices and brackets, hidden in the dense forest, compared with other people's residences, it looks extraordinarily remote and quiet.
Hearing the movement from the lakeside downstairs, Yin Yubei, who was sitting by the window and playing chess alone, swept his eyes lightly. When he saw Yin Huai's figure, he couldn't help being slightly startled
"...Young Master, please stay a little longer, Young Master."
Yin Huai was walking on the veranda in the middle of the lake when he heard an urgent shout behind him.
He couldn't help being startled, turned his head to look, and saw a young master dressed in fine clothes and brocade fur furiously chasing after him and blocking him.
Yin Huai was suspicious, "Who are you?"
Since he can be here, he must not be an ordinary family, he must be a younger brother or son brought up by some court official.
Mo Yundu swallowed, only to feel his heart beating like thunder, unable to hide his joy and excitement.
The person in front of him was wearing a dark cloak, his skin was whiter than snow, and his black hair fell down to his waist. The whole person was like a monster transformed into a fairyland in the sky. At first glance, it was hard to tell whether it was a monster or a fairy.
It was the young man I saw in the Zen temple that day. Thinking of this, his eyes showed a few traces of fanaticism and obsession.
"My lord, I've been looking for you for a long time..."
As early as the moment he stretched out his hand to ask for it, Chong Cang made a gesture to protect Yin Huai behind him, with a cold face.
But Mo Yundu didn't even give him the slightest look, his eyes were full of the young man he had finally found in front of him.
Ever since he met him that day, he has been out of his mind. It almost made him suspect that the young man he saw in the temple that day was a ghost who had transformed into a human form. , is also a fairy, not a demon.
Because he didn't know his name, he ran to the temple to wait for him every day, which made his father think that he had taken a fancy to the bald donkey in the temple.
He was full of joy looking forward to being able to look at him again, to see him once, and if he could talk to him again, he would be willing to let him die on the spot.
I didn't expect God to take pity on him, and by chance today, I actually met him again.
"..."
The group of them stood by the lake, unaware that the scene was overlooked by the figure on the tall building not far away.
Yin Huai blinked, a little confused, because he had absolutely no impression of this person in his mind.
"Who brought you here?"
"Father Mo Shilang."
Yin Huai groaned, so he was Mo Shilang's son, but why didn't he see him at the previous banquet.
"What's your business?"
There was a trace of impatience in Yin Huai's eyes, and he almost wrote "If there is nothing important, I will chop off your head" written on his face.
Mo Yundu was ignorant, because he didn't go to the banquet, his father said that his mouth was also causing trouble for him, so he was allowed to stay in the resting place, and he was released at this time.
So he didn't know Yin Huai's identity at all, and only regarded him as Xiao Wan who was raised by an ordinary family.
He didn't know what to think of, his handsome face flushed just right, and his voice trembled for no reason.
I saw that his eyes were wandering, and at first he didn't dare to fall on him.Finally, as if mustering up a lot of courage, he met his gaze and said enthusiastically, "...you...you follow me."
Yin Huai was startled when he heard the words, and then smiled softly: "You are so brave."
But when he's not smiling, it's even more frightening.
Chong Cang on the side heard Mo Yundu's words, his body was obviously tense, and his eyes were fixed on him.
"I am sincere, I will treat you very well, even if you want the moon in the sky, I will pick it off for you."
This direction was unexpected by Yin Huai, and he felt it necessary to clarify.
"...I don't have a habit of breaking sleeves."
"....."
He was stunned when Mo Yundu's expression was obviously empty when he was called "Zhen", and then he scanned the clothes on Yin Huai's body with difficulty, through the cover of the thick cloak, he could vaguely see the golden patterns on the robe. .
His little face turned blue and purple, and finally turned pale.
He only heard him mumble: "...Your Majesty."
After an unknown amount of time, he seemed to have finally come to his senses, with a very ugly expression on his face.
"Your Majesty, forgive me."
The death penalty is acquitted, but the living sin cannot escape.
Yin Huai felt that it was necessary to give his father a small report. According to Shi Lang's temper, it's no wonder he didn't have his leg broken.
Looking at Mo Yundu's distraught back, Yin Huai frowned slightly. From just now, he felt that there was something strange, and he always felt that there was a faint cold gaze surrounding his surroundings.
"His Majesty."
Chong Cang behind him called him, Yin Huai came back to his senses and turned his head to look.
Chong Cang's facial features were shrouded in the moonlight, standing there quietly, unable to clearly see the expression on his face.
Yin Huai didn't understand what he was doing looking at him, so he reached out and patted his hand as usual.
"Let's go back."
Unexpectedly, his hand was held back by Chong Cang, he lowered his eyes slightly, his face was gloomy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Yin Huai subconsciously wanted to break free, but found that he was so strong that he couldn't move at all.
"what happened?"
Chong Cang looked at him, his dark eyes were faintly beautiful blue, like a lone wolf on the prairie, surprisingly bright.
"Your Majesty once made me a promise."
Yin Huai suddenly realized, and patted his hand, "Are you afraid that I will break my promise? Don't worry, I don't need to lie to you like this. As long as it is within my ability, I will naturally promise you."
Chong Cang did not speak, and the atmosphere fell into a stagnation for a while.
above the tall building.
Jiang Bo watched Yin Yubei's face carefully, and commanded his subordinates to clean up the scattered chess pieces on the ground with breathless concentration.
Yin Yubei's face was gloomy, and his eyes fell directly on the bright yellow figure.
The uncomfortable feeling of being watched came back.
Yin Huai frowned slightly, trying to find out the source of this feeling, looked around, and finally seemed to notice something, looked up.
After seeing it clearly, he was taken aback.
I saw Yin Yubei standing on top of a tall building, condescendingly looking in his direction.
His icy eyes fell on the hands he and Chong Cang held together, his expression was gloomy.
