The first thousand and seventy-six chapters thoughts fight
"Ayan!" Ye Fuxun reached out to grab the Chinese knot in Ji Yannuo's hand, "Why do you still keep this?"
Not only did he keep it, but Ji Yannuo took it out of his arms just now, and it was obvious that he had been carrying it with him all the time?
This is the Chinese knot she knitted by herself after the Buddha's birthday last year. She still remembers that she was clumsy and no matter how she knitted it, the Chinese knots she knitted were always ugly...
Later, Ji Yannuo couldn't stand it anymore and personally taught her the key points of knitting Chinese knots, and she was able to knit them successfully.
Then, in order to erase the black history, she threw away all the ugly Chinese knots.
Only the one that was first given to Ji Yannuo never came back. As a result, Ji Yannuo actually carried it with him!
Could it be that he just waited until today to laugh at her? Ye Fuxun pouted his lips to show his anger: "Give me this ugly one."
Ji Yannuo quickly took back the Chinese knot, put it in his arms and pressed it: "This is the first love that Ah Xun gave to me. It cannot be returned."
He picked up her hand and put it into his clothes again, letting her feel his heartbeat: "Axun, did you hear it?"
"That's my heart."
The rain started to fall outside the window, and the two of them hugged each other and stood in front of the window to watch the rain. Ye Fuxun was glad that he didn't pester Ji Yannuo to go out.
She never liked walking outside on rainy days. Seeing that the rain had no intention of stopping, she simply stayed in the study room in the front yard to read, while Ji Yannuo continued to review official documents.
Ye Fuxun was tired from watching, so he took a nap on the imperial concubine's couch that had been prepared in the morning. In his daze, he seemed to hear Eunuch Xu's anxious voice: "Your Highness, it's bad, something happened in the dragon boat race."
Ji Yannuo stood up quickly, glanced at Ye Fuxun who had turned over on the imperial concubine's bed, stood up and walked out: "Go out and talk."
Eunuch Xu followed him out of the study and reported: "Your Highness, news just came that the leading boat in the dragon boat race sank near the finish line."
"What?" Ji Yannuo suddenly frowned, "Are there any casualties?"
"Not at all." Eunuch Xu said hurriedly, "The rowers participating in the dragon boat race are all common people who are good at water. I heard that they all swam to the shore soon after the shipwreck."
"How could the ship suddenly sink?" Ji Yannuo pursed his thin lips, thoughts swirling in his mind.
"The people who went to watch the dragon boat race secretly spread the word that it was God's wrath and the dragon boat sank, but..." Eunuch Xu did not dare to explain.
Ji Yannuo glanced at him and said in a deep voice: "Prepare your horses, I will go there myself."
He hurriedly turned around and returned to the study. At that time, Ye Fuxun was sitting up with his hands on his hands, rubbing his eyes and looking at Ji Yannuo: "Ayan, what happened in the dragon boat race?"
She vaguely heard Eunuch Xu's report. Ji Yannuo had no intention of hiding it: "A dragon boat sank during the dragon boat race. I went out to see what happened."
Ye Fuxun woke up a little and stood up to straighten Ji Yannuo's clothes: "Then you should be careful."
"Ah Xun, now that the rain has stopped, you should go back to Mingyue Palace first. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back until later."
She naturally agreed and pushed him out: "You go out quickly, I will take care of myself."
Ji Yannuo went out and when he came back, it was already time for Ye Fuxun to have a midnight snack.
She is now able to eat better, and the four meals a day she used to have has been changed to five meals a day.
In addition to breakfast, lunch, dinner and afternoon tea, late night snacks are also included. Otherwise, at night, as soon as you fall asleep, you will dream of queuing up in the canteen to get food.
Ye Fuxun felt that she might have a snack in her belly. However, although she ate five meals a day, she gained weight too quickly, and her food intake at each meal was not much.
For example, a small bowl of fresh meat wontons is a midnight snack half an hour before going to bed.
Ye Fuxun is obsessed with fresh meat wontons. The meat filling should not be too much, but the skin of the wontons should be extremely thin. When paired with the boiled broth, the wontons will have a succulent and smooth texture after one bite.
She was slowly eating her wontons when she heard the news that Ji Yannuo had returned home.
"Your Highness, can you have dinner?" Ye Fuxun put down his spoon and went to meet him, and saw Ji Yannuo shaking his head: "I'll give you some wonton noodles."
Grandma Chang hurriedly went to make arrangements, and soon a large bowl of fresh meat wonton noodles and several side dishes were brought in.
"Your Highness, how is the investigation of the dragon boat sinking going?"
Ye Fuxun waited for Ji Yannuo to finish his meal before pulling him towards the bedroom.
"It was caused by man." Ji Yannuo still had an unconcealed anger on his brows, "The bilge of the dragon boat that had the accident was found to have traces of digging. Several large holes were cut in the bilge, and then the wood of the boat was inlaid.
go back."
"The boat won't sink for a while, but when the dragon boat rows a certain distance, the inlaid wood will loosen and fall off, and the river will overflow, causing the boat to sink."
Ye Fuxun frowned: "Has anyone found out who did it?" Ji Yannuo shook his head.
He went out for most of the day and summoned personnel from relevant departments to investigate the scene. Apart from finding out the real cause of the shipwreck, there were no clues as to the real culprit behind the scenes.
"The dragon boats participating in the dragon boat race are parked beside the moat. There are so many people coming and going that it is difficult to check them in a short time."
"Fortunately, there were no casualties." Ye Fuxun sighed, then asked again, "Dragon boat paddlers are all good at water. So the real culprit behind the scenes in sinking the dragon boat must not have been to hurt people?"
Ji Yannuo nodded. The real purpose was terrifying to think about.
"This matter made the emperor furious," he pointed to the sky and lowered his voice, "The dragon boat sank. Some people say it was..."
Ye Fuxun's pupils suddenly shrank. The emperor was already suffering from an incurable poison, and now the dragon boat sank. Doesn't it mean that the real dragon is about to sink?
No wonder the emperor Hui Longyan was furious. Ye Fuxun took a deep breath and thought carefully: "Ayan, I always feel weird lately."
"Why did Ah Xun say that?"
"The emperor was almost poisoned by water chestnuts, and now there is a dragon boat sinking. I always feel like there is an invisible pusher doing something."
Ji Yannuo hugged Ye Fuxun: "Axun has a keen sense. In fact, it is really not peaceful these days."
"A Xunke still remembers the silver mine?" Ji Yannuo continued, "I just heard two days ago that someone was illegally mining iron ore in the East China Sea, and none of the mined stone was reported to the court."
Ye Fuxun's eyes widened: "Is it the East China Sea again?" Ji Yannuo nodded: "I heard that your brother just came back from the East China Sea, and I was thinking of looking for him tomorrow to see if there is any news from the East China Sea."
"Private mining of iron ore is by no means a trivial matter. We must know that iron can be used to make weapons." Ji Yannuo rubbed his eyebrows, "And this matter has only been reported to the capital now. I don't know how long it has been secretly going on."
"To hide such a thing," Ye Fuxun asked, "it shouldn't be possible for ordinary people to do it. Who could it be?"
Ji Yannuo looked at her: "Except for the officials sent by the imperial court, the East China Sea is the fiefdom of King Rui."
