"Haha, brother Su, you don't have to be polite. I am returning to the imperial city for business this time, and it is really a blessing to meet Mrs. Su on her birthday. I hope that brother Su will take care of my troubles."
"Master Yuan, if you are there, please come to the small house to make it more beautiful. Please come quickly." Su Shuiqu ordered people to prepare high-quality tea and welcome Master Yuan to enjoy it.
On the other side, Yang Houwang and others did not wait for Mr. Su. They saw a young man running over politely: "Seniors, please come in. Mr. Su has something to do and I can't greet you. Let me say sorry to the three adults. Please, three of you."
.”
Yang Houwang was a little disappointed when Su Shuijian didn't come out. He originally wanted to take this opportunity to let Su Shuijian pretend to meet him casually, but it seemed impossible. But something happened to Su Shuijian, and he actually asked Corporal Li Xian to do it.
He didn't show up.
Yang Houwang waved his hand to the door, indicating to the servants to put the carriage and its people into the backyard and show up later for the performance.[
Shangji felt the bumps and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. It was a pity that he could not see the rumored Su Shuijian. Shangji couldn't help but think that if his pipa was praised by him, it would be better than Duan Jingjin's. Shangji thought of this,
I can't help but imagine the astonishing admiration of everyone.
Yang Houwang followed everyone inside, talking and laughing all the way and praising the Su family. He had confidence in Shangji's piano skills. No matter what, he would definitely gain something from Shangji today.
…
Xin Shangqin wore a light blue tube top dress and sat in a carriage with her guzheng in her arms, her head lowered and silent. When the wind blew through the curtains, she could vaguely hear the solemn conversation in the carriage behind.
The carriage turned a sharp corner, and Xin Shangqin hurriedly stretched out his hand to grab the armrest on the side to prevent it from shifting. After the carriage stabilized, he sat down again holding Qin, with his head lowered.
She has never been so close to Mr. Sun, but she has never been so helpless and unable to do anything. The emperor is right behind her. Even though she has some confidence in herself, she feels ashamed when she sees the holy face today.
It was hard to imagine that a man could be so good-looking. He stood there as if he had overshadowed Mr. Sun's brilliance, which made her unable to think of any comparison. She didn't even dare to look at Mr. Sun again to avoid making people laugh.
I heard that the emperor's face was stunning, but when I saw him today, I realized that the rumors were true. How could such a noble man fall in love with a man?
Xin Shangqin couldn't express what he felt in his heart. He just hugged Gu Zheng more tightly to calm down his ruined heart, but he still couldn't help but shed tears, both for his own wishful thinking and for Lord Sun's obedience when he looked into the emperor's eyes.
Respectfully.
She could wait before, but after seeing the emperor today, what reason did she have to convince herself that she was waiting to be with Sun Qingmu one day? She was afraid that Master Sun would not like her if he walked out of the palace one day, let alone wrong him and herself.
together.
Xin Shangqin's head dropped even lower. Whenever she thought that the emperor had sent an order for her to follow this trip, she felt a burning pain on her face. Although the emperor didn't say anything, she could see the disapproval in his eyes.
Her little thoughts are probably not enough to make people laugh!
In the carriage in front, Zhou Tian leaned on the carriage, looking at Su Yi who was following him, he had a headache and closed his eyes again.
Su Yi knew that he was not popular, but he prepared generous gifts. The person the emperor liked was his brother, and his brother's mother was his mother, so he collected them from the warehouse without hesitation.
Many valuable things that the emperor had rewarded in previous years were brought here, and they filled two carriages.
Su Yi diligently beat the emperor's legs, and his slender fingers fell on the emperor's dark purple robe, with a flattering expression: "Your Majesty, Mr. Su is law-abiding and diligent and loyal to the emperor. Looking at the Great Flame Kingdom, I can't find anyone like him.
A good official like Su Shuiqu, the emperor has good vision, he already took a fancy to Su Shuiqu, otherwise Su Shuiqu would have been covered in dust."
Zhou Tian put his hand on his head and was too lazy to speak. Su Yi didn't go there just because he wanted to block the canal. Even if he was all flattery, it probably wouldn't sound good to the canal's ears.
Su Yi was not discouraged by the emperor's coldness and continued: "It's time for the emperor to let Su Shuijian enter the palace. If Su Shuijian enters the palace, I will definitely treat him as my biological brother. I will give up my position in the main hall of Weiyang Palace."
I am willing to live with him."
Sun Qingmu looked away from his book when he heard this and looked at Su Yi who was talking endlessly. Is he testing the emperor?
Zhou Tian opened his eyes, stretched out his white fingers and poked Su Yi's head in warning: "Don't talk nonsense when you see Mrs. Su, or she will be so angry that she will accuse you."
Su Yi took advantage of the situation and held the emperor's hand. The emperor looked really good today. I had never noticed that the emperor looked so charming in dark-colored clothes. Especially when he tapped his forehead, he was so intoxicated. He tapped it twice more.
good.
Su Yi held the emperor's hand with a pious look and swore: "Su Yi will never speak nonsense. Su Yi will die if he dares to speak a word nonsense." Then with a smile on his face, he threw himself into the emperor's arms and said, "Your Majesty,
How about taking a walk to Weiyang Palace tonight? Wei Chen has mixed some new incense."[
"Ahem!" Sun Qingmu couldn't help but raise his head when he heard the words. Can he say this in private?
Su Yi looked over unhappily for a moment: "What are you coughing up? You haven't used it before, pretending to be a saint all day long. Why don't you become a monk? Look at the few gifts you got. I know they were given to your brother's mother.
Happy birthday, I didn’t know but thought you looked down on the Su family’s low threshold!”
Sun Qingmu was speechless. Did he get less gifts? Only more than the emperor? It was because you moved two cars that you were too conspicuous, not because others were too many. Now, by the time tomorrow, everyone in Shengsheng will know that you gave Su Shuiyuan
Mother's two carts of gifts, wouldn't it confirm the fact that the Emperor has a special regard for Mr. Su!
Su Yi lay in the emperor's arms and said slanderously: "Your Majesty, you see Master Sun's behavior and you are not convinced anymore. Why don't you let Master Sun go? How about I go with you alone? Anyway, Qin also has Miss Xin.
Having one more Sun Qingmu is not going anywhere."
Zhou Tian opened his mind and said, "You might as well not go. It will be cleaner if I go alone." Fortunately, her clothes were not wrinkled. Originally, she wanted to invite Mo Ping and Qing Mu, but then she remembered that Mo Ping had gone with the army.
Tianwei Kingdom, Nai found Miss Xin.
Su Yi quickly changed the subject: "Your Majesty's clothes look really nice today. Supervisor Su Shui will definitely like them when he sees them."
Zhou Tian moved his head that he wanted to bully and said, "I don't know if you like it or not. As long as you don't open your mouth and talk nonsense, I think he won't hate it. Where did you hear about Mrs. Su's birthday today?"
Su Yi immediately laughed: "How dare you leave someone who the emperor cares about? He is just waiting to show his filial piety. I didn't expect that the emperor also has this intention. Your Majesty, can you tell me if this is tacit understanding?"
Zhou Tian sighed, Su Yi opened his mouth. After making sure that Su Yi was honest, he leaned on the car and continued to fall asleep. It would be better for Su Yi to go, at least let some people think twice before stumbling on the ditch. Sun Qingmu was too honest, obviously.
It's easy to offend people, not to mention that some people are obviously difficult to deal with: "Call me when you get there." I hope Shui Guo won't blame her for bringing someone here.
It was almost noon when a group of carriages and horses stopped in front of the Su Mansion. Except for the red ropes tied to the guards' swords, everything outside the Su Mansion was as before, but the sound of singing and opera could be faintly heard from inside. People passing by probably also
I would just think that this old lady had hired someone to sing.
Sun Qingmu got out of the car and was about to take out the token and ask the concierge to report it.
Su Yi had already taken a step forward and took out his token and presented it with a piece of silver. He said with a smile on his face: "I wish you both good luck and congratulations. I wish your old lady good luck and longevity. Please help me."
It would be nice to give an update."
What Su Yi handed over was the badge of the Commander of the Imperial Guard. How come no one dared to pass it on? He was just being polite, and it also seemed that the money he gave was not a bribe but a gift.
Sun Qingmu had no choice but to stand aside and look at Su Yi, who was smiling brightly. He didn't believe that Su Yi was really happy. Looking at the many carriages behind him, he could tell that the emperor was very concerned about Su Shuiyuan's mother's birthday.
There are all kinds of juggling, famous operas, piano troupes, Yuefu dancers, silks and satins, jewelry and rare treasures. It can be seen that the emperor really cares about this matter and wants to make Mrs. Su happy and comfortable on her birthday.
How could the emperor ever be so attentive to others, yet he was willing to do it for Su Shuijian's mother? Su Yi could really be as relaxed as he appeared on the surface. I'm afraid he saw that the emperor's carriage and horses were unusual when he left the palace today, so he asked now.
I hurriedly prepared my gifts and came to see what the emperor meant.
Does he want to welcome Su Shuijian into the palace? Even if he doesn't, he can still get a glimpse of the emperor's thoughts from the emperor's attitude towards Su Shuijian. With such a plan, he can still be brothers and sisters in these small things.
Thinking about it, Sun Qingmu felt that he was ashamed of himself.
Zhou Tian really cared about whether Mrs. Su was happy or not. Su Shuiqu was still unmarried because of her reasons, so he wanted to make up for it, so he invited the best to bring her everything, hoping that she would be happy.
Today she took care of all her official duties to make time for Mrs. Su, hoping to accompany them so that the old lady could feel at ease.
In the Su Mansion, Su Shuiqu, his colleagues and Mr. Yuan accompanied his mother and several ladies who were familiar with Old Su to watch a play.
Madam Su and her acquaintance were sitting in front, with nervous expressions on their faces because of the drama at the front desk.
Su Shuiqu sat in the back with several adults. The drama on the stage did not attract them. Several people were gathering together and chatting about the affairs of the court. When they talked about this year's Spring Palace, several people's faces were a little relieved. There were so many talents.
.[
Yuan Guangyu asked Su Shuiyu who he liked with a smile.
Yang Houwang, Counselor Ding, and Master Wu did not dare to go past Grand Administrator Yuan, and they all sat down and waited for Superintendent Su to reply.
Seeing this, Su Shuiqu looked at Yuan Taishou helplessly. He couldn't say this "arbitrarily", not to mention he was quite sensitive. They were both sons of nobles. Not to mention their identities, their knowledge was about the same. How could they be "random"?
Said: "What's the use of the lower official looking for someone? This time, celebrities from Shengdu are vying to be the leader of the palace examination. The lower official has to wait... Whoever the emperor likes..."
The boy came over in a hurry and said something in Mr. Su's ear.
Su Shuiqu's face changed slightly, and he stood up in a hurry, not daring to delay: "Sir, please sit down for a moment, and I will come back as soon as I leave."
