MTL - I [Imperial] Am Not This Kind of Man-Chapter 131 Toilet soap
Within Pei House, talks are continuing.
Qin Nuo was also helpless, and he decided to cut the knife quickly to Queen Mother Huo. Within the capital, now the main forces of Pidongying, Shenzeying, and Shenbingying have moved south. Although the remaining Pidongying still has 10,000 elite soldiers, if they mobilize too much, they will inevitably trigger the alarm of the Queen Mother Party, There is Pingxiying in his hand, thinking about it, can only rely on Pei Yue's forces. In fact, it was precisely at this timing that Queen Mother Huo started their offensive.
Pei Wei later mentioned a few more things. To be fair, his request was not excessive.
The sound of rain outside the window made the interior quiet and quiet.
The two were short and concise, and soon finished the rough plan.
"It's getting late, and the emperor should go back. Let him take a ride."
Qin Nuo stood up like good.
"Thank you very much for Pei Qing's hospitality today." He said with a smile.
Pei Yue took a deep look at him, and suddenly said, "It just happened that the emperor came over. There is a document, so let's make it a gift by the way."
Then, he turned to the table, took a report, and handed it to Qin Nuo.
It seems that when I came here, Pei Yi leaned on the bed to read the copy! Qin Nuo took it curiously, then opened his eyes.
At first puzzled, followed by a frown, and finally shocked.
Pei Yan watched his expression change with amusement beside him. When Qin Nuo finished reading it, he leisurely said, "The emperor really didn't know it."
Do n’t even find your feet, do you trust that person so much?
Qin Nuo paid no attention to the surprise and ridicule in his words. At this moment, his heart was completely filled with shock.
There was a moment of silence, and his expression changed several times. He suddenly looked up and asked, "Are many people aware of this?"
"Not much, but Huo's family should know about it, too," Pei said.
After a long while, I was hiding a lunatic!
Fang Yuan, Fang Yuan, you hide me so hard!
Shocked by the news, she was completely disoriented. Qin Nuo didn't know how he had left Pei's house stupidly.
Blue ear followed, sending the emperor back all the way.
Fortunately, Pei Yue arranged for him to follow, otherwise, with his state of non-defense, he might really alarm the city guards.
Seeing the palace's huge figure emerge at the end of the road, Blue Ear stopped and looked towards the end of the alley.
Qin Nuo blinked as he watched the figure walking slowly out of the alley. He stopped and turned back and laughed: "Blue ears, you have worked hard."
Lan Er bowed her salute, then disappeared into the night silently.
Qin Nuo then turned around and looked at the figure that appeared in the alley ahead.
Fang Yuan braced his umbrella and greeted him quickly, "Emperor ..."
"Isn't that just saying I'll go home?" Qin Nuo smiled.
Fang Yuan paused, bowed his head and said, "It's the minister who cares a lot."
For the first time the apprentice acted alone, the master was always restless.
Qin Nuo smiled and looked up, staring at the familiar face.
Jun Xiu is gentle, and the scar across the bridge of the nose carries some cruel marks from the past, but it always feels reassuring at first glance. Since when I have become accustomed to this person's company, I don't even have to worry about my own safety as long as I realize that he is around.
Fang Yuan was staring at him uncomfortably, and whispered: "Emperor ..."
"Um." Qin Nuo looked back and smiled and took the umbrella from Fang Yuan.
"Let's go back."
**********
The night was low, almost at the same time.
An inconspicuous carriage stopped in front of the other courtyard of Cui's house.
A puppet figure wearing an autumn-scented cloak got out of the carriage and hurriedly entered the gate.
When Cui Wei heard the news, he was scorched in the backyard.
Without him, just because the little ancestor on the opposite side is too difficult to entangle.
It was just a little bean sprout that couldn't even reach his calf. Wearing a delicate pink cotton dress, he was holding Cui Min's one leg, crying hard, and couldn't let go.
The maids and nurses around wanted to laugh, but because of the fear of their masters, they didn't dare to pretend, one by one, their cheeks turned red.
Are all girls of this age so disappointing? Cui Wei was tortured with a ruthless look.
There are a lot of big things in the camp waiting to be dealt with. He can't stay here tonight. But for a long time, this little ancestor just refused to let go.
It wasn't until the guards of the vestibule came over to report, and unexpected guests came to visit, that Cui Yun was relieved from this embarrassing situation.
The grandmother stepped forward and hugged the child. Cui Wei handed the rattle in her hand to the little girl, and repeatedly promised that she was not leaving when she went out. She only went to see a guest in the vestibule. She would definitely come back to accompany her to continue playing. .
Although less than two years old, this elf little thing has understood when to be coquettish and can only wait obediently.
Holding her fingers, she watched "Father" out of the room in a grievance.
Entering the main hall, Huo Youchan took off the cape above her head.
During the waiting time, it seemed as if an inexplicable cry came from the backyard, reminding of the unspeakable little Highness hiding in this other courtyard. Huo Youchan knew something, but he didn't break it.
The lieutenant who received the reception was a little embarrassed, but didn't seem to know how to explain it. Fortunately, Huo Yousil looked at the nose, nose, and heart, and was relieved without asking.
The maid serving Feng Cha presented the tea snacks. Huo Youchan waited for another moment before Cui Wei came out quickly.
Looking at the traces of suspicious milk stains on his handsome cheek, Huo Yousil had a little bun.
This clean maniac would also look like this.
Huo Youchan suddenly wanted to laugh, remembering her childhood in the palace, from childhood to almost never saw this person would have a embarrassing side.
With the attention of her eyes, Cui Wei took the serpentine from the lieutenant's hand, wiped his face, then calmed his face, and stepped forward and asked, "Why do you come out of the house today and come to me?"
Without waiting for her answer, she said, "You come out to my house in the middle of the night, aren't you afraid of rumors?"
"The emperor is not such a chicken belly." Huo Youchan smiled frankly, "And you and I are innocent, what's wrong?"
Cui Yan glanced at her.
Huo Youzhan was unconscious, and laughed: "This time, I have something to discuss with General Cui."
"Some things?" Cui Yan sat opposite her, with a playful smile. "So, is it your business or the emperor's business?"
"What's the difference?" Huo Youchan watched him calmly.
Cui Wei lowered his gaze. "You're dead to him."
"The emperor is a prince, no matter for the people of this world, or for Da Zhou Guozhen." Huo Youchan said sincerely, "This is not only my opinion, but also the opinions of many adults in North Korea. If you listen carefully, You will understand what I mean. "
"Yes, I didn't see it before." Cui Wei's mouth taunted a little.
"Before the emperor was in the palace, the environment was dangerous, so I had to use some means to protect myself. The so-called dumb, but helpless." Huo Youchan sighed. "Not every child can be carefully looked after by his relatives after losing his mother. . "
Cui Wei's expression was gloomy, and Huo Youchan had something to say, and he heard the score.
However, without waiting for him to say anything, Huo Youchan suddenly changed the subject again, "Like the little princess, although she lost her parents, now those who care about her are caring for her, and love is like treasure."
Cui Wei froze and laughed: "So you know, did Huo Shang tell you?"
Huo Yousil did not answer.
"Since you know, then the emperor must know too." He laughed lazily. "What do you think of this child?"
He didn't wait for Huo Youchan to answer, and then he laughed abruptly: "Forget it, there is no idea, just a daughter, and it can't hinder him."
Huo Youchan frowned. "I haven't told the princess of the emperor's existence."
Cui Wei is somewhat surprised, but he knows that Huo Youchan is not a hypocritical person.
Huo Youchan's expression was calm and quiet, anyway, she was telling the truth. The matter of the little princess was originally discovered by Qin Nuo, and then told her that she had never told the emperor.
Cui Wei's attitude seemed to be a little milder, but he didn't relax his mouth, only smiled: "It doesn't matter, know or not, anyway, on my side, it may not be worse than in the palace."
Huo Youchan frowned, "Are you sure you can guarantee her wealth and prosperity in the future? Since two years ago, the political turmoil has become more and more difficult to understand. Even the prominent family that has been passed down for centuries like the Guo family has fallen. . "
"The person in the backstory today is obviously a golden leaf, but now he can only be regarded as the illegitimate daughter of the Swiss state, is it not because of the sinister political struggle?"
"Enough, these things can't be yours." Cui Yan interrupted her words, frowned. "If you come here this time just for these things, then you can leave, just to see the past love. I urge you to stay at home these days. Presumably there is no shortage of a female officer in the palace. Does the emperor go to the night market with his faithful tonight? "
Huo Youchan lowered her gaze, "It is true that the affairs of the government are not something that a woman can intervene in. In this case, there are some things in the harem that I want to explain."
...
*****
With the arrival of midsummer, the capital is much quieter than before.
In the hot season, the number of garden banquets loved by the aristocratic family has been reduced, but hunting and summer heat outside the city have increased.
Only this year, there are fewer aristocrats out of the city than in previous years. I don't know if it was because of the fighting or because of the atmosphere of the wind and rain that was coming from the mountains. Although on the surface, the politics of the DPRK remained calm and peaceful.
At noon, the stewards of the Pei family received a reward from the inner government.
Pei Min opened the gift box and looked at the bright little things inside.
There are ten in total, the size of a baby's palm, all in the shape of white plum blossoms, the white and tender petals are soft and clear, and the red flower in the middle is like a gem. The moment when the brocade box was opened, an extremely light white plum aroma struck, mixed with pure milk and honey, which was extremely tempting.
If it had n’t been for the **** who had given the reward, the old housekeeper would never have imagined that this thing would be a box of toilet soap, the color would be as clear as crystal, and the smell would be much lighter than usual.
The old housekeeper peeked aside, and secretly sighed that the things produced by this house were unusual. Even the dew soap is so exquisite that it is almost the same as the gem flower calyx.
It ’s just a gift of toilet soap. This kind of personal use does not know what the emperor means.
Pei Yue looked calm, closed the lid, and commanded: "Send to the bath."
The old housekeeper sent him to the bathroom. It ’s just that this precious thing is stained by the heat of the bathroom. What if it fumes out?
The old housekeeper went back and forth several times in the bathroom with a large area, three dozens of rooms inside and outside. In the end, I chose the place where I put things on the Jinsinan wooden table in the outer hall.
After all, it's a bit dry here, so don't be afraid to break things.
The setting sun was sinking and the sunset was red.
Pei Tuo returned from the outside and hurriedly entered the bathroom. Today, he tried to fight with a group of brothers on the school ground for a whole day. He was covered with dust. His temperament was good and he came here as soon as he got home.
This bathroom of Pei House was built during the heyday of the Pei family. It introduced hot spring water from outside the city in a secret way, and the clouds were steaming for many years, and the mist was tumbling.
Inside, there are large baths for people to enjoy a bath, small baths for quick cleaning, and open-air soup springs in the style of Dongying. There are dozens of them. Because there are few hosts and many rooms, several people in Pei Tuo have their own independent sites.
After passing the outer hall, Pei Tuoping retired from his servants, threw the cloak, and threw it on the shelf, his eyes suddenly fell on the central table.
A dark green brocade box caught his attention. The brocade box is also inlaid with a pattern of gold foil and gold threads.
Stepped forward and opened, a thick milky aroma mixed with the sweet smell of honey rushed towards the face.
Ten pink toot white and tender little things.
Is this a new snack prepared by the kitchen? I really ca n’t stand the habit of my uncle and Ren Jinglei, and I like to drink wine and even eat when I take a bath.
Pei Tuo has never had this kind of hobbies. No matter he marches or takes a bath, he only pays attention to efficiency.
But I'm really hungry now. There is a huge amount of activity throughout the day, and we have to wait for dinner ...
Thinking about this, Pei Tuo picked up a piece of "dim sum" and threw it in his mouth ...
...
Perhaps it was suddenly colder, and before dinner time, Qin Nuo suddenly sneezed.
He rubbed his nose, always feeling that someone was scolding him in the back ...
