General’s Tempest White Moonlight (Rebirth) - Chapter 27
Sure enough, within a few days, I heard that the civil servants of Prime Minister Zhang’s faction had been at odds with His Majesty in the courtroom.
Everyone with a discerning eye knows that Prime Minister Zhang is expressing dissatisfaction with the emperor about his youngest daughter. His disciples are too wide, and the reason for each rebuttal is not stubborn. The emperor is too angry. But he can’t really do anything to him.
The emperor tried to appease Prime Minister Zhang, but Concubine De Fei had been demoted to Concubine Zhang, and the emperor did not want to restore her to her original position in order to follow the example of You.
As for Zhang Youyi, she has been sealed to Liangyuan after he was lucky once, and there is no reason to advance her position.
After thinking about it, the emperor finally canonized the eldest prince who had passed his thirteenth birthday as king in advance, and encircled a place in the capital, allocated funds for construction, and only waited for him to move out to live in the palace after he became an adult.
In this way, the battle on the court barely ceased.
After this incident, the emperor was really afraid that the women in these harems would have another moth, so he began to summon his concubines to go to the palace to attend the sleeping quarters instead of going to the palaces on his own.
Although Concubine Liu Gui was called the most fortunate, but Liu Mingyue was much easier than before. After all, there was no need to worry about meeting the emperor at the Concubine.
It’s just that I see another person I don’t want to see more often.
The fifth prince moved to Changli Palace on the second day of the birthday banquet. In addition to bringing a few nanny and palace people who had been serving personally since childhood, he also brought a team of imperial guards headed by Pei Shen to Changli. Come to the palace.
Although the imperial guard would not enter the palace gate easily, Liu Mingyue felt uncomfortable doing anything when he thought of being separated from him by a wall every day.
The fifth prince is a bit cold, but his attitude toward academics is more conscious than that of Brother Jue.
Often when Liu Mingyue took Brother Jue into the study, he would see that the fifth prince was already dressed and sitting there flipping a book.
He has a different personality from Ge Jue. Ge Jue sometimes likes to read aloud, while the fifth prince likes to read silently.
But when the two of them stayed together, the fifth prince didn’t even think that Brother Jue made any noise, affecting his reading.
It’s just that the two of them are more sensible and obedient than their peers, and they are at the age that a seven or eight-year-old dog dislikes. They learn from the Imperial College every day and submit them to Liu Mingyue for inspection after completing their homework. Playing in the garden.
Although Liu Mingyue hated Pei Shen, she had to say that with him accompanied by the fifth prince, at least there was no need to worry about the safety of the fifth prince.
But that evening, the fifth prince and brother Jue went out not long after Liu Mingyue just laid out paper and dipped in ink, before writing a few words, brother Jue ran back into the study from the outside panting. Come.
“Big sister, my Royal Highness and I hung the kite on the tree, and I can’t take it down.” Brother Jue’s forehead was slightly wet, and he gasped slightly. The tree is too high, and he and the fifth prince are too short. , No one can reach.
“Then ask a little **** to move the ladder to help you get it.” Liu Mingyue turned a page of the book. She was approaching a new typeface and didn’t want to move for a while.
“I have looked for it, but the ladder is not high enough, and I still can’t reach it.” Brother Jue was a little anxious. The fifth prince was too attached to the kite. He said that he would not let the palace man make another one.
Liu Mingyue frowned slightly, and gently placed the brush in her hand on the pen to prevent it from rolling down and staining the piece of paper she had just written.
“Is it that high?”
Brother Jue nodded repeatedly.
“Well, then push me over to see if there is any way.”
After receiving Liu Mingyue’s words, Brother Jue’s eyes lit up instantly, and he wished to push Liu Mingyue’s wheelchair instead of the palace clerk. Liu Mingyue stopped him, so he honestly followed him and walked slowly.
When the palace man pushed Liu Mingyue to the Imperial Garden and saw this tree, he understood why Jue had been so downhearted before.
The tree in the imperial garden is indeed very tall. Brother Jue and the fifth prince’s kites are entangled on the branches at a high place. The ladders moved by the little eunuchs are only half of the tree trunk. At this moment, one is climbing. At the top of the ladder, trying to knock down the kite with a long stick.
“This is the kite given by Uncle Yun Ji. Be careful not to break the kite.” The fifth prince had a stern face, his hands behind his back, and his expression was serious.
The little hand he hid behind his back tightly grasped, making people see that he was really nervous about the kite.
Hearing the words of the fifth prince, the little **** on the ladder became more nervous. When I was nervous, my feet slipped, the long stick in my hand fell, and the whole person fell backwards.
“His Royal Highness, let go!”
Liu Mingyue exclaimed, but His Royal Highness was standing under the tree, nearly ten meters away from her. She had only time to reach out and hold Brother Jue who wanted to run forward, but His Highness was beyond reach.
Fortunately, a figure flashed quickly, but instead of rushing to take away the Five Highnesses, the man jumped up and caught the little **** who fell from the tree, and then carried the back collar, panicking. The little **** was placed on the ground.
Then he turned to the fifth prince, his eyes sinking slightly, “His Royal Highness, I seem to have said that you do not stand under the tree, you may be hit.”
The fifth prince lowered his eyes, and the grandfather said that he had to listen to what the guard Pei said. But before, he only read the kite and didn’t listen. It was because he was too stubborn.
“Now I know.”
The fifth prince flattened his mouth and admitted his mistake, and raised his eyes to look at the kite on the top of the tree. As if thinking of something, he turned his head and looked at Pei Shen, “Guardian Pei, can you help me take the kite down?” It’s so good that even the little **** who fell down can catch it, and it should be possible to take a kite.
Pei Shen was silent for a moment: “I will try.”
He let the two little eunuchs hold on to the ladder below, climbed up by himself, thought for a while, then jumped down again, his eyes turned to Liu Mingyue on the side.
Liu Mingyue watched him look at herself, and inexplicably wanted to step back.
But before she had time to speak for the palace clerk to push her back, she heard Pei Shen say: “Ms. Liu, can you lend me the cloth on her body.”
Liu Mingyue:? ? ?
A big man, what’s the use of her drape!
Pei Shen seemed to see what she was thinking, and pointed to the kite on the top of the tree: “I want to climb up to pick up the kite for the Five Highnesses. Climbing the tree with bare hands will be a little difficult. If you wrap your hand with a long cloth and wrap the tree trunk, you will It’s easier to climb.”
Liu Mingyue’s complexion was a little unsightly. She wanted Pei Shen to borrow from others, but she turned around and was surrounded by court ladies, and no one was wearing such a long cloth.
Not to mention the eunuchs.
In addition, the five princes looked at her expectantly, and it was really not easy to refuse.
Anyway is a decoration on the body, there is no need to make the fifth prince feel stingy. Liu Mingyue gritted her teeth, tore off the yellow drape from her body, and threw it to Pei Shen.
The yellow cloth with silver thread swelled into the wind, Pei Shen stretched out his hand and gently grabbed it, and suddenly remembered that when she threw the bed sheet to herself at Chong’an Temple that day, she also gritted her teeth bitterly. expression.
It’s just that the five princes were present today, and she didn’t seem so obvious.
“Thank you Miss Liu.”
Pei Shen’s black eyes drooped slightly, and carefully wrapped the yellow drape with a slightly scented fragrance around the back of one hand, then held it tightly, climbed up to the top of the ladder again, and looped the other end of the drape from behind the tree. In the past, entangled in the other hand.
Then, with the force of rubbing against the tree trunk, he climbed little by little until he finally climbed to the top of the tree, carefully untied the silk thread wrapped around the branches, and took off the kite of the fifth prince.
When the fifth prince saw Pei Shen take it off, his stern face suddenly burst into a smile, and then he immediately pressed his mouth to maintain his cold image.
Brother Jue was directly happy and shook Liu Mingyue’s arm excitedly: “Big sister, Guard Pei is so powerful, he can climb up at that height.”
Liu Mingyue hummed perfunctorily, but the two children showed admiration in their eyes. She suddenly heard the little palace ladies behind her who usually played with the fifth prince and brother Jue.
It turned out that after Pei Shen got the kite, he held the kite in one hand, and slid down from the tree with one hand.
No ladders were even used this time.
Liu Mingyue feels speechless, is it so great to be able to climb trees! He didn’t still use his own cloth.
Thinking like this, he suddenly realized that Pei Shen had already handed the kite to the fifth prince, and walked over again holding his yellow drape.
Liu Mingyue thought that Pei Shen wanted to return it to herself, and waved her hand disgustingly: “Throw it away, it’s all worn out.”
Originally, Concubine Liu Gui prepared a lot of clothes for her, and she couldn’t wear it at all because she brought it from the mansion herself, so she didn’t really care about this piece of silk.
“……good.”
Pei Shen responded in a low voice, and then watched Liu Mingyue take the two children back to Changli Palace happily with the kite.
And he, taking advantage of no one’s attention, hid the drape that had been worn out in several places into his sleeves, calmly following them far behind them, and continued to guard at the gate of Changli Palace.
It wasn’t until the exchange value was out of the palace that Pei Shen went to a sewing shop and found an embroidered woman who was inconspicuously mending clothes, and asked her if she could repair the worn-out part of the silk cloth.
Xiu Niang picked up the pi silk and glanced at it. She was surprised to find that it was a dark pattern with silver thread hooks. She couldn’t help but persuade: “It costs too much money to repair this. If you have this silver, you might as well buy a new one. “
Pei Shen shook his head, that’s different.
He took out this month’s monthly salary and put it in front of Xiuniang, and asked, “Is it enough?” He lives in the general’s house on weekdays, and his clothes are issued by the palace, so he doesn’t need to spend any money.
Xiu Niang took it and opened it, and nodded again and again: “Enough is enough, and it is enough to make a new one.”
“After that, please help me make a new one.”
