Chapter 199

Emperor Qingming had already left the inner hall. Xu Yun subconsciously looked at the queen who was still sitting upright.

Aware of his incomprehension, the queen shook her head slightly.

Where did she know that the emperor who was not a man had all kinds of thoughts?

Seeing her shaking her head, Xu Yun remembered slightly.

... what did he subconsciously look at her just now?

Sure enough, if he didn't sleep enough, his brain wouldn't work. It seems that he needs to wake up.

Xu Yun lifted his feet out of the side hall.

Instead of staying in the outer hall, he went to the outer corridor of the hall and stood.

The cold wind was so cold that he could not help shivering, and his neck could not help shrinking.

In a flash, Xu Yun turned back to the outer Hall - well, enough, he was awake. In other words, he suddenly felt that he didn't need to wake himself up in this way.

Xu Yun sat down in the outer hall and took the tea from the palace to warm his hands.

In the side hall, the queen was still dignified and sat there quietly.

After waiting for half an hour, I saw emperor Qingming coming back.

"I've kept Mr. Xu waiting."

Emperor Qingming, with a smile on his face, took Xu Yun back to the inner hall. It seemed that he was in a better mood than when he went.

The queen smiled.

It seems that the child has coaxed and stopped crying.

And Yongfu palace coaxed two.

"Bring people in." emperor Qingming sat down and ordered Li Ji.

Li Ji answered and soon brought a man in.

That's a woman.

He is about twenty-three or four years old. He wears a green skirt, is covered with a smoke colored wide Luoyi, and has simple hair bun and jewelry. He looks good and has beautiful eyebrows and eyes.

She knelt down and bowed her head.

"See your majesty, empress."

Slave?

Xu Yun took a look.

This man is not an ordinary maid of honor, and his manners and tone are not cautious. Instead, he looks like a girl from a scholarly family.

"Get up."

Emperor Qingming said gently to Xu Yun, "this is Mr. Cai Fengyun's granddaughter. She was sent to Yongxiang ten years ago."

Cai Fengyun?

Xu Yun knows.

"It's Mr. Cai's descendant."

Mr. Cai was a great scholar of the former dynasty. He was sent to Beijing for punishment after being found out that he had intimate contacts with the remnant of the rebellion of the former dynasty. Later, he hanged himself in prison, and all his family members were sent to Yongxiang in the palace as slaves.

"Although the case was handled in accordance with the law, I still admire Mr. Cai's talent as a great scholar."

Emperor Qingming said, "a few days ago, I overheard that Mr. Cai's granddaughter is very good at painting lotus, which is a bit of Mr. Cai's style. It happened that there was also a man painting lotus in Wanfu building, so I chose Miss Cai to paint Wanfu building - Mr. Xu thought it was appropriate?"

"Xu believes that there is nothing wrong."

Xu Yun said, "it can also show the magnanimity of the imperial court and your majesty, regardless of past grievances, especially for scholars all over the world --"

There's nothing to say but flattery at this time.

Emperor Qingming smiled.

"I just feel that since the Empress Dowager is on her birthday, I should accumulate more blessings for her elderly family. After the Wanfu building is completed, Miss Cai has made great contributions in painting, and I will forgive a family member of the Cai family out of the palace and restore their freedom."

Xu Yun raised his hand to salute and sighed, "Your Majesty is benevolent!"

"It's a pity that Miss Cai has been in the palace for many years and has missed the best age for marriage." emperor Qingming said here, looked at Cai Jin and replied with a smile: "when Miss Cai painted a few days ago, she mentioned it to me and admired Mr. Xu's talent -"

Xu Yun said slightly.

The next moment, as expected, Emperor Qingming said, "it happens that Mr. Xu has not married yet. Miss Cai can afford both talent and appearance. I thought that if we can achieve a marriage, it must be a good story to spread."

Xu Yun was in a heavy mood.

It turned out that this was a "reward" for him.

"What does Mr. Xu think?" emperor Qingming asked with a smile.

Xu Yun raised his sleeve and said, "Your Majesty's kindness should not have been refused. However, Xu is lazy by nature. He is not a lover and can't be a husband. He really doesn't dare to delay Miss Cai's good marriage."

When the woman heard the speech, she quickly said, "Mr. Xu misunderstood... Your majesty misunderstood. The maid only admired Mr. Xu's talent and learning, and never dreamed of marrying Mr. Xu as his wife..."

As he said this, his cheeks were slightly red, his voice was a little low, and he said, "I'm only willing to follow my husband. Even if I'm a slave, I'm just doing some rough work, and I'm satisfied."

Xu Yun only felt unimaginable.

She can say that, too?

If Mr. Cai knows, I'm afraid the coffin board will not be able to hold down.

"Listen, Mr. Xu." emperor Qingming smiled and sighed, and advised in a joking tone, "how can you bear to put such a sincerity here."

Xu Yun said with a wry smile, "I'm afraid that Xu really doesn't have this blessing."

Emperor Qingming smiled: "I don't mean to force you, but if you don't try, how can I be sure you won't get along? In my opinion, you two must have the same temperament. If you don't let Miss Cai go back with you first, when the Wanfu building is completed and miss Cai regains her freedom next year, if you two agree, I will order to marry you——

If Mr. Xu still had no such intention at that time, I would let Miss Cai leave Beijing and only say that Mr. Xu and Miss Cai are teachers and students. "

After speaking, she looked at the queen on her side and asked with a smile, "what does the queen think of this idea?"

The queen smiled. The idea was disgusting, of course.

"Your Majesty is thoughtful. She has given Miss Cai some sincerity. Maybe she can find a good marriage for Mr. Xu."

Emperor Qingming looked at him: "what does Mr. Xu think?"

Xu Yun lowered his eyes slightly.

"In that case, thank you for your kindness."

The words had reached this point, and he had no room to refuse.

If he is really just Xu Yun and there is no town government behind him, he can refuse to the end regardless.

Of course, if he was not the second son of the town government, where would he have the honor to let his majesty, like a street matchmaker, not stop until he facilitated this "marriage".

When it was getting late, Xu Yun took Cai Jin out of the palace.

In the carriage, Cai Jin wanted to say something, but as soon as the man in front of her got into the carriage, he began to lie asleep and didn't give her any chance to speak at all.

But she soon found out it wasn't fake sleep——

The man in the car began to snore, even overshadowing the sound of the wheels of the carriage.

Cai Jin pulled slightly from the corners of her mouth.

Is this Mr. Xu who is famous all over the world?

... I'm afraid it's not just fame that can move the world? The snore alone can shake the sky.

The carriage stopped outside the town government house.

Cai Jin followed Xu Yun all the way back to his house.

Entering the hall, Cai Jingang was about to speak, so he heard Xu Yun ask in front, "what do you know?"

Cai Jin said modestly, "my maidservant knows a little about calligraphy and painting, and has read some poems. She has made some poems over the years, but it is inevitably sad, but -"

Xu Yun shook his head and interrupted her, "that's not what I said."

Cai Jin looked at him puzzled.

"Can you wipe the floor, wash, chop firewood and burn a fire?"

Xu Yun asked, writing impressively in his eyes - didn't he say he wanted to be a slave or a maid?
