Chapter 65 (1/2)
[after hesitating for a long time, Xuantian nodded, ”OK.”
Thank you very much Chu Yuan said, ”then I'll go back first. I'll disturb you today. Please don't blame me.”
Xuantian said: ”after living in this palace for so many years, we should do something to compensate.”
Chu Yuan said: ”later, I will send the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat the old man's condition. Don't drag on.”
Xuantian sighed slightly, but he did not refuse.
Duan Yao did not leave with Chu Yuan, but stood in the courtyard all the time.
Xuantian said, ”what else do you want to ask me?”
”No Duan Yao said, ”I just want to stay with my predecessors.”
”I'm afraid I'll be upset?” Xuantian smiles.
Duan Yao didn't say anything. After all, it is such a tragic period that the scar was once uncovered, and it can not be stopped in the future. It is also not impossible to be forced to face the past again. It is not impossible to get into the top of a bull's horn when you are old.
Xuantian groped for a long time in his sleeve and put a small porcelain vase on the table: ”this is the red crane top.”
”Master.” Duan Yao was in a hurry.
”Last night, I really wanted to end it.” The old man said, ”it's just that I can't bear to worry about it. I always want to know what kind of Chaoya island has become after I left.”
Duan Yao took back the bottle of hedinghong and said, ”master, I'd like to know. I'll find a chance to have a look in the future.”
Xuantian said: ”since I have promised the emperor and you, I will not look for shortsightedness easily. I don't have to worry about it.”
Duan Yao sat opposite him and said, ”aren't you angry with me?”
Xuantian said: ”you are naive in the bottom of your heart. I am an old man with a lot of evil deeds. If you really care about these things, it will not make people laugh.”
Duan Yao said: ”the emperor is a Ming monarch. I don't want to embarrass the elder too much.”
Xuantian asked, ”have you ever seen those Chaoya people who came to Dachu this time?”
”Well.” Duan Yao nodded, ”yes.”
”What do you think of them?” Xuantian asked again.
Duan Yao thought about it and said, ”to be honest, it's not good.”
Xuantian said: ”Chaoya people have always been closed and arrogant. They are also greedy for gold and silver. They don't like to stay in merchant ships. After the group of Nanyang people came to the island, the internal fighting became more fierce. All day long, people would become more and more distorted by cheating, fighting openly and secretly. ”
Duan Yao said: ”the elder or go back to the southwest with me.”
Xuantian smiles and shakes his head, slowly closes his eyes and continues to nap.
Duan Yao stayed in the courtyard until after dinner, but he didn't go back to his residence. Instead, he went to Chuyuan's bedroom.
”Why is Duan Xiaowang coming?” Four Xi father-in-law is guarding in the corridor, ”what do you want to do with the emperor?”
”Well.” Duan Yao said, ”did the emperor sleep?”
”Not yet.” Four Xi pointed to the roof, ”here, the emperor is still thinking about things.”
Duan Yao looked up and saw Chu Yuanguo sitting on the roof.
”What can I do for you?” Chu Yuan, dressed in casual clothes, laughs in the moonlight, which is particularly good-looking.
Duan Yao jumped on the roof.
”Sit down.” Chu Yuan said, ”it's much cooler here than in the room, and the scenery is good.”
”Can the emperor climb the roof, too?” Asked Duan Yao.
Chu Yuan said: ”in principle, you can't, but if you don't report to the Lord Taifu, no one will blame me for my loss of decency.”
Duan Yao covered his mouth: ”I don't say.”
Chuyuan smiles and picks up a pot of wine from the side, and let four Xi send a cup up.
Duan Yao said, ”Fei Xia?”
”From the southwest government.” Chu Yuan said, ”very sweet.”
”My brother likes snow.” Duan Yao took the glass from his hand. ”He thinks that the rosy clouds are too light, but every year, he always empties the best ice cellar to store the rosy flowers. Snow you can only rank behind.”
Chu Yuan raised his head and drank.
”May I ask you something?” Duan Yao hesitated.
”I have already said that I regard you as my brother.” Chu Yuan put down the glass, ”naturally, anything can be done, anything can be said, do not have to be so careful.”
Duan Yao said, ”why did you prepare those southeast snacks so that I could give them to Xuantian?”
”That's it?” Chuyuan Chuyuan chuckled, ”where can't you think of it?”
”The emperor guessed his identity, but he stabbed it on purpose. I'm afraid he will be upset for a moment?” Duan Yao said, ”the elder's sleeve is hidden in the hedinghong. If he killed himself last night, wouldn't he ask anything?” It's not easy to get clues related to the tidal cliffs. Shouldn't they be well protected.
Chu Yuan said: ”people in this world are complicated. You can tell the truth about convenience.”
Duan Yao nodded: ”yes.”
”When you see those southeast snacks, you will guess that someone has already recognized his identity. So either die, or flee, or stay in the palace Chu Yuan said, ”the first two, even if I force people to stay, or even use the people he loves to coerce, may not be the truth. After all, Chaoya island has been lonely for thousands of years, and outsiders can't tell the truth from the falseDuan Yao thought about it and said, ”but even if you stay in the palace, you may lie.”
”It's only half as likely to be a lie.” Chu Yuan said, ”and the other half, is that he is willing to cooperate with me, then at least half of the chance to hear the truth.”
