The stalemate between the Southwest King and the Emperor did not last long.
The news of the general's return to the court was "unintentionally" spread throughout the capital.
Everyone knows what the general's return means at this time.
The left and right are just here to scare the king of Southwest and warn him not to act rashly.
As for the emperor, he also "conceded" a little bit. Not only did he bury Yu Wenyan with the ceremony of a prince, he also gave him a title, a beauty, gold and silver treasures, and even exempted the southwest king from paying taxes for three years.
Three years of taxes! That’s a huge sum of money.
The emperor had already cut off his flesh, and the Southwest King no longer had any reason to threaten him. The tense atmosphere seemed to have eased a lot for a while.
Seeing that there was a chance of solving the problem, the emperor immediately arranged the funeral ceremony, and the whole world mourned for three days as a sign of condolence. At the same time, he also asked the Imperial Supervisor to check the time and be very particular about the repair of the tomb. After all, Yu Wenyan was in a tragic funeral, so he had to pay attention to it.
Time, calm the soul.
Fortunately, it was a good day calculated by Qin Tianjian soon. The imperial court made a puppet of "Yu Wenyan" and erected a monument. The funeral ended with great grandeur.
The king of Southwest also cried bitterly in front of the grave.
Everyone in the capital slowly relaxed their nerves. At least, it seemed that there would be no more civil strife.
You can continue to live a normal life.
In the past few days, the whole capital has been dressed in white. No one has any other colors of clothing on their bodies. Everyone looks like a ghost wandering in a ghost town when they go out.
Even the Jiang family is completely white.
Business can't be done for the time being, and the city gate hasn't been opened yet, so the tofu shop can't inspect and accept it.
Fu Bao just studied hard these days. In order to supervise Yu Wenyan, he often went to the cabin to see him.
...and eat bacon by the way.
On the day "Yu Wenyan" was buried, it snowed heavily.
The cabin was almost covered by thick white snow. It was freezing and snowy outside, but it was indeed warm inside.
Fu Bao sat by the fire with his legs crossed, gnawing on apples and pretending to take out the cucumbers grown in the space from the cloth bag. The cucumbers grew very well, were green, and were very watery and sweet inside.
, Fu Bao likes to nibble a few mouthfuls when he has nothing to do.
She gave the cucumber to Yu Wenyan: "I'll give you the cucumber."
She ate Yu Wenyan's bacon and gave others cucumbers to eat.
Yu Wenyan was also leaning by the fire reading a book. Hearing this, he looked up at the cucumbers, which were still filled with moisture. It was warm in the room, so eating cucumbers would not make them cold.
He took it, looked at the cucumber, took a bite, and was slightly stunned.
This cucumber... is quite delicious.
It has a slight sweetness and the fragrance of melon and fruit.
The two children shared food with each other, Yu Wenyan read a book, and Fubao also read with a book.
This book was left to Fubao by Mr. Shi before he left Beijing. Fubao has read it once and is now taking it out to review.
However, there are still some parts that I don’t quite understand, and some words seem really awkward.
Fu Bao glanced at Yu Wenyan. The young man's cold face seemed to be coated with a layer of warm light under the firelight.
He didn't even raise his eyes: "What's wrong?"
Fu Bao moved over and got closer to Yu Wenyan, "Do you know these words?"
Yu Wenyan sat up uncomfortably, "Where is it? Bring it to me."
Fu Bao opened the book and pointed to the words on it: "That's all... The sky is strong, and a gentleman keeps improving himself; the terrain is flat, and a gentleman carries things with kindness... Where are the 'health' and 'kun' here?
untie?"
This is not difficult.
Although Yu Wenyan had a hard time in the palace, he still went to Taixue as usual. It was just that his academic qualifications were excluded.
He lowered his eyes and looked at the book, his long eyelashes casting sinister shadows under his eyes.
"Here, God's will is heaven or nature..."
Yu Wenyan's slightly hoarse voice sounded slowly, and he slowly and slowly deconstructed the meaning of each word, explaining it clearly and clearly.
Fu Bao couldn't help but nod: "So that's what it means... As for this, I didn't quite understand it before..."
Fu Bao and her temporary teacher were discussing and studying in the wooden house in the forest.
the other side.
The inn, southwest king's place.
"Wang, my subordinates have inquired about the news... A case occurred at King Yongye Station, and the case has not yet been concluded."
Yu Wenjing was playing chess with himself, looking unpredictable.
He took the paper handed over by his subordinates and read ten lines at a glance: "...tung oil?"
"Yes, it's said that the backyard is full of tung oil."
Yu Wenjing frowned: "Which inn is King Yongye at?"
"White Horse Station."
White horse...
Yu Wenjing frowned, "...The Crown Prince still hasn't sent anyone to deliver the news?"
The subordinate lowered his head and said, "King...still not."
In fact, he even wanted to tell their king that the prince was dead.
He was even buried as a prince.
Where else can there be any news about the crown prince?
Wang... I'm afraid he's also going crazy with sadness...
Yu Wenjing picked up a chess piece, put it in front of him and turned it around at his fingertips, "This brat..."
I don't know who his temperament is.
Yu Wenjing doesn’t think Yu Wenyan is dead.
That was his son. How could he die in the palace so easily?
Still burned to death.
No matter who he wants to burn to death, that brat will burn others to death.
What's more, the charcoal skeleton found that night, Yu Wenjing looked left and right and didn't think it looked like his son.
The visit of the vassal king to the capital at the end of the year was originally the time when the court showed its majesty to the vassal king. Normally, the vassal king would return to his fiefdom at this time.
This year it was only because of what happened to Yu Wenyan that they stayed a little longer.
"Send someone to search secretly."
"Yes, King!"
The figure of his subordinate flashed and disappeared into the house.
Yu Wenjing continued to make moves, and the crisp sound of the moves sounded.
…
Jiang family.
Seeing the sun setting in the west, Jiang Lilai slipped Fubao away. Fubao lay in his uncle's arms, not forgetting to wave goodbye to Yu Wenyan: "Yu Wenyan, I'll come see you tomorrow."
Yu Wenyan closed the book and nodded: "Okay."
Fu Bao is really not afraid of him now, and thinks Yu Wenyan is a very good friend!
It’s not like Jiang He eats it every day.
It's not like the eldest and second brothers are going to study at Taipei University, so they have less time to spend with her on weekdays.
It's not like Big Tiger and Little Tiger like to practice martial arts and often go to learn martial arts, so they can't accompany Fubao.
The most important thing is that Yu Wenyan and Fubao are similar in age, that is, they are only three or four years older than Fubao. Fubao looks at him as if he is a little brother of the same age who they can play with.
Rather than big brothers like Big Brother, Second Brother, and Big Tiger.
Fu Bao recognized this friend. He saw Yu Wenyan being bored alone in the silent ice and snow, so he wanted to accompany him all the time.
At least when Yu Wenyan recovers from his injury and can leave, he won't be lonely.
Of course Yu Wenyan didn't know what Fubao was thinking.
He watched the little girl and Jiang Li disappear slowly.
I also closed my book and fell asleep.
Counting the time, it’s time for my father to leave the capital...
