Chapter 37:

When Su Gonggong saw Huiming, she was standing under the lantern at the gate of the palace, wearing a blue-colored hooded cloak with fur trim, standing slightly on her side, looking up at the shining lights under the cornice, and she couldn't see the full picture under the cloak. , I can only faintly see the beautiful tip of the nose, the rounded jaw, the light posture, and the fair and beautiful person like the moon through the bursts of white mist.
This is almost like the beauty in a dream. Su Jin was stunned for a while, afraid to go forward, letting the Buddha go one step further, she would wake up this beautiful dream.
After a long while, Huiming still seemed to feel something. He suddenly turned his head and saw Su Gong, in a dark scarlet official gown, standing in the shadow, motionless, as if he was looking at her.
"Public Su." Huiming greeted him with a few steps, with a smile on his face: "How can you stop there in such a cold day? I should have read it wrong, I was shocked. jump."
Su Jin recovered from the crisp and sweet voice, only to see that Hui Ming's face was slightly pale in the cold wind, and even his lips were almost bloodless.
Some self-blaming tightened her palms, Su Jin secretly regretted that she had just lost her mind, but shook her head and said, "Why are you standing outside in such a cold day?"
To wait for you.
A straightforward answer that would surely be misleading. At the last moment about to export, Huiming swallowed dangerously and dangerously. She paused, adding a few more explanations for the same meaning, and it seemed appropriate. A lot more decent: "I am idle and idle, thinking that my father-in-law had never been to Changxing Palace before, so I came out to welcome him."
"It doesn't have to be like this!" Su Jin shook her head straight, and felt that her words seemed a bit too harsh. I was afraid that Huiming would be upset, and she quickly continued: "I have been in the palace for many years, and it is early everywhere. Everyone knows it well, it’s cold and windy, just stay in the house, and I will find you."
Huiming nodded slightly when she heard the words. Of course, she didn't mean to be unhappy. It was clear that she was just looking for a common sentence. She heard it, but for some reason, she also felt a little sweetness.
It seems that seeing her taking such a big step forward in saving Grandpa Su's life, she is so happy, she is just casual, just feel happy listening to everything, right?
Thinking about this, Huiming also pursed his lips and smiled, and now leads the way and heads to Jingfangzhai with Su Gonggong.
On the way, Su Jin said: "How about in Changxing Palace? What position did Mrs. Kang share with you?"
Upon hearing this, Huiming answered one by one.
Su Jin said again: "Tao Concubine Kang was originally the concubine Shu concubine proclaimed by the first emperor. Although she has nothing to say, the Kang family has some reputation in Beijing. Today's Shangshu of the Ministry of War is still regarded as the nephew of her aunt, although the Changxing Palace is deserted. Some, but the Kang family’s filial piety to this aunt will not neglect."
It was only then for Hui Ming, why, among the many nobles in the palace, only Concubine Kang was not only comfortable in her own palace, but also had spare energy to take care of the Seventh Royal Highness.
It also shows that although Concubine Kang gave her the title of a personal court lady, she also told her not to wait on her side. She wanted to come, just asking her to be an idler.
"You... are being dragged down by me." When this matter was mentioned, Su Jin also had some shame on her face: "If not, you don't have to come to Changxing Palace if you are a good imperial court lady." "Where is this? It's a taboo, this Changxing Palace is much more worry-free than the imperial court!"
When I was talking, I arrived at the door of Jingfangzhai. At this hour, Mother Wang was watching the little majesty having dinner. There was no one in the cubicle. Huiming untied the cloak outside, warmed his hands by the brazier, and went to lift the copper. Pot, I want to pour a cup of tea for Lord Su first.
After Su Jin entered the room, she almost gave her a good look, naturally and clearly saw that Huiming's slender fingertips had been flushed with cold after reaching out her hand.
"Sit down and stay warm for a while." Su Jin's eyes shrank, and she stepped forward to stop Huiming's movements, took the teapot from her hand, and sat down on Xiao Xiao. A clean one was picked from the small carved pomelo pot, and it was blanched with the hot water in the pot and set aside, and then the copper pot was seated on the brazier again.
Huiming sat on the side in a daze, and watched Father Su roll up his sleeves, and opened the small tin can with tea leaves with his slender fingers. He looked at the tea in the tin and seemed dissatisfied. She frowned slightly, paused, and then took out the bamboo teaspoon, slowly scooped out a little tea foam, poured it on the bottom of the cup, and re-lifted the kettle that had been heated on the fire for a while, using a familiar technique to flush. I took a bowl and waited a little more than ten breaths. Then he held it up with both hands and handed it to Huiming with a low voice: "The water is still hot at the moment. You can warm your hands and wait for a while. It’s just right in the mouth when it’s cooler."
The things in Mother Wang's house were nothing but crude tea leaves that were commonly used by palace people and were worthless. Tea drinking utensils were nothing more than tea pots and bowls, and there was no special tea pot.
But I don’t know why, when he called the grandpa Su, who was a superb posture, rushed, this cup of thick tea seemed to be extraordinarily particular. Huiming actually felt a little unbearable, so he hurriedly got up and took it with both hands. Over.
The water in the pot is not hot, the wall of the tea cup is thick, and it is slightly hot in the hand, but it is not hot. Hold it with both hands, but for a while, the fingers are gradually comfortable in the stiffness of the cold wind. Up.
Huiming waited for a while, then couldn't help but lowered his head and took a sip. The tea was thick and bitter at first. After he swallowed it, the warmth warmed all the way from his mouth to his stomach, and then he had a faint aftertaste. The points seem to be sweet like nothing.
It wasn't until this time that Huiming suddenly came back to his senses, remembering that she originally wanted to pour Grandpa Su, but Grandpa Su didn't drink a sip of hot water, so he didn't say anything about it. He made it by himself. One?
It's really rude...
However, Grandpa Su didn't seem to care. He took care of his own tea set, and slowly unfolded a thinly painted silk cloth on the empty wooden table.
Huiming looked down--
It is the map of Jingxiang.
"Father-in-law has chosen a good place?" When it came to business, Hui Ming also forgot his impoliteness and asked seriously.
Grandpa Su seemed a little apologetic and lowered his head: "Although your Majesty said that I will pick one place at will, but as an eunuch, if I really choose the three or five mansions, it would be too public. So I chose to pick one. , There are only a few places left.
Su Jin said, and pointed her finger to her:
This place should be the most suitable one, which is closer to Xinglong Gate and not too noisy, but it is slightly smaller. ."
Huiming followed Su Gonggong's instructions and looked at them one by one. Sure enough, there are small square houses on the map. The most suitable one is located outside Xinglong. It is convenient for the upper and lower values, but it is not directly opposite the door. , But turned a corner and took a step back. It is a place for quietness. Although it seems a little smaller than the other places, when you look closely, it can be regarded as a courtyard with two entrances. Coming from the front and back, it can be called a sparrow, although small and complete.
What's more, she and Su Gonggong are the only two of them. Where can such a big place be?
On the map, but a small house like a fingernail, but Huiming looked at it, but the more he looked at it, the more he liked it. Her face showed a smile like the night of the winter solstice: "Can Living in the same place with Grandpa Su, I looked at it and everything was fine, and Grandpa felt it was suitable, then just this one!"
Here again, it was almost the night of the winter solstice, when Huiming said for the first time that it was exactly the same as when he lived in the same place and was very happy.
There was a slight red on Su Jin’s cheeks, and she felt that her heart was suddenly held by someone in the smile of the Buddha. It stopped for a moment, and then went crazy again and slammed into his chest. , Fang Buddha told someone to stuff a small deer into it, dissatisfied with the tightness of the surroundings, and only clamored that it would be comfortable to rush out.
No, she was kind by nature, and she was happy for him knowing that her Majesty did not punish him, and because of Wei's actions, she only thought that the rumors of "feeding against food" were just a misunderstanding, so that she would be so close to him.
If she was asked to detect that it was not what she had imagined, she would be like when she first arrived at the Palace of Condemnation, and she would be pretentious and wary of him everywhere.
Thinking of this, Su Jin's heart sank.
In order to prevent Huiming from seeing that something was wrong, he paused, still just like the last time, turned his head slightly, and forced himself to take a slow breath, waiting for his heartbeat to calm down a little bit. He whispered: "In that case, I have decided on this place. In the past few days, I will find someone to clean and repair it, and add more things. I can live in at most three to five days."
Huiming didn’t notice Su Jin’s complicated thoughts. He just nodded and said a little regretfully,
It’s a pity that I just arrived in Changxing Palace, so I took a leave of absence if I didn’t come, and I couldn’t help me with the matter of cleaning up my house. ."
Su Jin's complexion became more gentle: "You don't have to worry about these trivial things. If you have any furnishings you want, please tell me now and I will prepare." After all, she explained that she was afraid that Huiming would be polite with him. Said: "The palace gift house will be slightly repaired and added in advance. I was originally the prefect. These conveniences are just easy things."
Huiming had also vaguely heard of this rule. For the sake of convenience in the future, he also said a few things. After a while, his men inadvertently touched the small purse with the Seven Lords Buddha beads. After thinking about it, Then he said: "If it is convenient, father-in-law may send a chess board? There are simple chess records, and it would be great if they can." "Do you want to learn chess?" Su Jin was a little surprised, heart. However, he was thinking about it at the same time. The treasures that were copied from the town government office were later rewarded by his majesty one after another. There was a sapphire chessboard in it, and the chess pieces were excellent black jade seeds. It was just right for Huiming to go to Jingxiang.
Huiming shook his head repeatedly: "It's not me, it's His Royal Highness Seven. I see that he is silent and bored in the room every day, thinking that if there is something to pass him, it would be good."
This is not Huiming’s guess. It is the only preference that the little majesty will be able to respond to when he takes the throne in the future. The beginners will follow the game step by step, but the little majesty will just read a book. I sat motionless in front of the chessboard for several days without seeing him practicing, but sometimes Tai Fu deliberately left a set of endgames when he left, and would always clap his hands when he came back the next day.
Huiming was thinking about allowing the little majesty to come into contact with his only preference as soon as possible, but after hearing this answer, Su Jin's complexion suddenly stagnated, and after a pause, she lowered her eyes and said, "Okay. "
