Chang'an, Bachuan Theater.
The actor on the stage waved his sleeves and sang: "The willow bank, the dawn wind and the waning moon. After so many years, it should be a good time and a good scene. Even if there are thousands of customs, who can tell me?"
Yang Yuhuan was lying on the folding bed on the stage of the theater. When he heard this, he had so many thoughts that he couldn't help but repeat it in his mouth.
Zhou Xiao broke away from Yin Yu's arms and came to Yang Yuhuan's side again, babbling and hugging her.
Only then did Yang Yuhuan come to his senses, picked up Zhou Xiao, and asked Yin Yu in a low voice: "These words on the stage are all from the collection of poems given to you by Zhou Yilang. I asked Liyuan to adapt them. What do you think?"
?”
Yin Yu frowned and said, "The lyrics are good, but when I sing the role, I feel that it has lost a bit of charm."
Yang Yuhuan: "If you think the role of the play is not good, isn't there a Hanxiao layman in your house who is uniquely talented in Chang'an? Just ask her to write down the gongchi score and then sing it and listen to it."
Yin Yu: "Ms. Yuhuan is talking about Song Ruo'e? She can't do it."
Yang Yuhuan wondered: "Why can't she succeed?"
Yin Yu: "Since Erlang left Chang'an, Song Ruo'e has been like a lost soul. She has been writing some lovesickness poems every day. She doesn't think about food and drink, and she is almost crazy."
Yang Yuhuan was funny at first, then fell into silence. After a long time, he asked Yin Yu: "In your opinion, what kind of person is that Zhou Lang?"
Yin Yu was stunned and asked: "What kind of person is Erlang?"
Yang Yuhuan nodded slightly.
Yin Yu thought for a long time before replying: "He is a rare man in the world."
Yang Yuhuan: "Rarely seen? Are you talking about talent, learning, or intelligence?"
Yin Yu shook his head and said: "Erlang is extremely intelligent, and he always has fantastic ideas that make people amazed. But these are not the most important things..."
Yang Yuhuan leaned forward and asked, "Then what is important?"
Yin Yu: "Erlang has something different from other people. He can't see or touch it, but he can actually feel it."
Yang Yuhuan: "What do you mean by this?"
Yin Yu: "I can't tell you the specifics. I can only talk about what I see in my daily life... Erlang treats people with humility. Whether they are relatives of the emperor or civilians, he treats them as normal..."
Yang Yuhuan: "This is not uncommon. There are many famous people in Gyeonggi who treat the people well and are famous for their tolerance."
Yin Yu: "Celebrities do good deeds, either because of ethics or reputation. They treat everyone equally, because of their character. I have lived in Bachuan for many years and have met many people of all kinds. Those people who have lived in Bachuan for a long time,
When talking about the local celebrities, although they have also received favors, most of them just praise the good people. Although Erlang has not returned to Chang'an for many years, the people just mention him and treat him like a family member."
Yang Yuhuan was quite surprised when he heard this.
Yin Yu: "When I was with Erlang, I didn't notice it at first. I just thought that his words and deeds were interesting and he was a person to be friends with. When I got along with him again, I admired him for his profound knowledge, his youthful maturity, and his ability in both civil and military affairs. Later, as long as he stayed with him,
When I hear his voice next to me, it is like the spring breeze turning into rain. I feel at ease and slowly fall into it."
Hearing this, Yang Yuhuan remained silent.
Once the play was over, the curtain came down on the stage.
Zhou Xiao slept in Yang Yuhuan's arms for a long time and woke up at this time.
It was almost noon, and Yin Yu originally wanted to invite the imperial concubine to the princess's house as a guest, but the latter declined the invitation because she was tired.
Before leaving, Yang Yuhuan half-jokingly and half-seriously asked Zhou Xiao if he would like to return to the palace with him. Upon hearing this, the latter quickly grabbed his mother and shook his head desperately.
When Yang Yuhuan saw this, he smiled on his face, but felt bitter in his heart.
After leaving the theater, Yang Yuhuan sat in a carriage and returned to the Yang family residence on Bachuan North Street. Before he got off the carriage, he heard the noise of people outside the carriage.
A chamberlain came to report that the right minister had brought several relatives of the Yang family to visit the imperial concubine.
Yang Yuhuan was confused. With the help of the palace maid, he got out of the carriage and saw all the relatives of the Yang family waiting in the courtyard.
Full of questions, Yang Yuhuan walked into the courtyard, and everyone in the Yang family greeted him one after another.
Yang Guozhong took a step forward, frowned and asked, "Why isn't the empress not in Xingqing Palace?"
When Yang Yuhuan heard this, he felt unhappy and said, "It's boring in the palace. What's wrong with me coming to Bachuan for an outing?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, the third sister of the Yang family quickly smoothed things over: "Brother is also worried about the empress, so his attitude is a bit harsh."
Yang Guozhong calmed down and advised Yang Yuhuan in a gentle voice: "There have been many events in the court in recent days. Your Majesty has been working hard, so the noble concubine should spend more time with the saint."
Hearing this, Yang Yuhuan looked around at the Yang family relatives and said in a deep voice: "I have only been out for three days, and you are so unwelcome?"
The third sister of the Yang family was anxious, so she decided not to go around in circles and said directly to Yang Yuhuan: "Your Majesty, your Majesty has gone to Lishan Mountain."
Yang Yuhuan was stunned for a moment, then said: "Before I left, Sanlang clearly told me that he had to deal with government affairs and would not be able to escape."
The third sister of the Yang family lowered her voice and said, "Concubine Mei is also going together."
Yang Yuhuan opened his eyes wide, as if he had been struck by lightning.
Seeing this, Yang Guozhong said in a deep voice: "I have already prepared the carriage. I only need to give the order..."
Yang Yuhuan's expression changed several times. At first he was angry, then resentful, and finally fell into endless sadness.
She turned around without saying a word, walked toward the rear compartment with heavy steps.
Yang Guozhong was very anxious when he saw this and wanted to step forward to persuade him.
The third sister of the Yang family grabbed him and shook her head gently.
Yang Guozhong: "Why did you stop me? Whether the concubine is favored or not is related to the whole Yang family!"
The third sister of the Yang family: "We are both women, and I understand the feelings of the noble concubine better than you. Going to Lishan at this time will certainly be a relief, but it will also offend His Majesty in public, and the gain will outweigh the loss."
Yang Guozhong: "Then what should we do? Is it possible to just sit back and watch His Majesty empathize?"
The third sister of the Yang family smiled slightly: "Your Majesty is also a man. He is used to eating delicacies at home. Occasionally he will steal food from the wild shops on the roadside. This behavior is extremely common."
After Yang Guozhong heard this, he paced in the courtyard with his hands behind his back.
After a while, he stopped and said to the third sister of the Yang family: "Although the Yang family is noble at the moment, it is also in many crises. Firstly, there are many things happening in the country, most of which are not good for me. Your Majesty has also heard about it; secondly, Anlu
Shan seems to be loyal, but in fact he has evil intentions. Everyone in the court knows it, but His Majesty is the only one who believes in him. And the third one, the prince-in-law of that week..."
Seeing that Yang Guozhong hesitated to speak, the third sister of the Yang family couldn't help but asked: "What happened to Prince Consort Zhou?"
Yang Guozhong: "Zhou Jun made great achievements in Anxi and became famous for a while. Your Majesty wanted to transfer him back to Chang'an more than once, but I persuaded him not to do so."
The third sister of the Yang family: "He is the consort. Even if he comes back, he will not be able to join the cabinet. What are you worried about?"
Yang Guozhong: "What a woman! If Zhou Jun comes back, those who are my enemies in the court will have a backbone and will definitely join the party. Take that brother Shu Han. He originally claimed to be ill in bed, but in order to recommend him
When Zhou Jun returned to the court, he actually let his servants carry him into the palace to meet the saint... In the past, most of the old people in the Northern Fan had been separated. Now that Zhou Jun has gained power, these people regard him as their new commander and try every means to gain access to him. If he is allowed to
Once I return to Chang'an, I'm afraid if my position as Right Chancellor is lost, the Yang family will also be in danger!"
The third sister of the Yang family was frightened for a while after hearing this.
Yang Guozhong looked back at the rear compartment and said to the third sister of the Yang family: "These days, you will stay in Bachuan, spend more time with the imperial concubine, and then think of ways to keep her from having contact with Princess Wanchun!"
