Who conveyed important news to him? Or was his military and national affairs?
I guessed, subconsciously trying to poke my head out to look, but saw several imperial guards who had been following the convoy outside looking at this side. I also woke up immediately, and hurriedly retracted my head and put down the curtain.
Then, I felt quiet outside.
I thought Pei Yuanhao would immediately issue some orders when he received the news that he had been waiting for, at least he would do something, but when he heard from outside, there was no sound at all. After he reached out to take the news, he sat quietly in his chariot.
Moreover, I don’t know if it’s my illusion, but there is a dull feeling of depression, slowly spreading.
Originally, following the emperor's carriage, these people naturally did not dare to speak casually and act casually. However, this time, the quietness was a bit strange, as if they were being pressed by someone, as if the feeling of oppression emanating from his chariot.
What's the news?
Everyone had been waiting for a while. He neither sent an order to continue walking nor issued any orders about this news. Everyone was standing on the official road. People could still be quiet, but the horses were a little unsteady. Several horses were stomping their horses' hooves restlessly and sniffing.
Finally, I heard a command in front of me.
The carriage slowly began to move forward.
It seems that the news did not change his trip itinerary today. However, I subconsciously felt that it did not seem to be good news. It is definitely not insignificant to make him wait like this...

The convoy drove quietly for a while and finally arrived in the suburbs. The place he had arranged had been arranged in advance. As soon as he got off the carriage, he saw a wide grassland. There were rows of tall and tall sycamore trees neatly planted in the distance, like a tall green wall, which separated the grassland from the surroundings.
From afar, I heard the sound of horses galloping, and the smoke and dust in the sky were shaking slightly.
When Miaoyan heard the voice, her eyes immediately lit up: "Horse!"
I didn't hold her back, and she came to the front with a whoosh. I was startled and hurriedly chased after her. I saw her pushing away the crowd. There was a arranged venue in front of her, and a high platform was built, with soft couches and tables on it, as well as refreshments, incense burners, and huge canvas covering the surroundings, which separated it into a closed and comfortable space.
Pei Yuanhao took Chang Qing over and the two sat in the main seat.
Eunuch Yu came over with the man and whispered: "Miss Yan, Your Highness, Princess, please sit down."
Miaoyan heard the horse's voice and was so excited that she was ready to move. When she heard him scream, she hurriedly held my hand and followed Eunuch Yu forward.
On both sides of the main seat, there were several rows of tables and soft couches. Everyone sat in a row. I accompanied Miaoyan and sat on the imperial and empress's starting point.
As soon as I got closer, I realized that Pei Yuanhao's face was terrifyingly gloomy.
He did not get angry, nor did he grit his teeth to scold anyone, but just had such a calm face. The feeling of depression was almost exactly the same as when he was on the carriage just now. Chang Qing didn't seem to know what was going on, but sitting next to him was even more careful than others, and she didn't even dare to take a breath.
She is like this, and others are even more cautious.
It seems that I guessed right - the news he had been waiting for, and the one he stopped halfway on the official road to receive was not good news.
However, it should have been good news, so he waited so earnestly that if Chabixing received it, he would send it immediately. But he didn't expect that things would not be as good as he had thought before.
What exactly is going on?
I know that what can affect his mood now is the military and national affairs he is busy with - or the implementation of the new policy, the situation on the south side of Jiangnan, or the movements of Luo Shi, or...
Is it about the treasury, about money?
Thinking of this, I looked at him carefully. Although his face was gloomy, he had already arrived here today, so naturally everyone could not sit there. Eunuch Yu walked behind him and asked softly: "Your Majesty..."
Pei Yuanhao then raised his head and looked at the vast grassland ahead and the horses galloping in the distance. His face was not much relaxed, and he only said: "No need to distance, let the prince take his younger brothers and sisters down to play for a while."
As soon as he opened his mouth, several people around him breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that at least the emperor will not spread fire to those who are here.
Eunuch Yu also breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly agreed with a smile on his face, and then went to pass the message. When he heard Pei Yuanhao speak, Miaoyan immediately walked down with energy. Nian Shen also got up, took his younger brothers and sisters to the center of the venue, saluted the emperor and the empress, and then turned to the tall horse led by the guards.
I looked at Miaoyan and chose a maroon horse, grabbed the reins, and excitedly turned over and climbed up.
She likes riding horses, I know that she is very good at riding, and I know that she is also good, but today, I still pulled her to give advice for a long time. At this time, she rode on the horse, looked back at my concerned eyes, and immediately understood and nodded at me.
Nian Shen next to her asked her: "Miaoyan, are you okay?"
"Of course not!" she said happily: "Brother Prince, let's compare later to see whose horse runs faster."
"Haha, OK, but be careful, don't fall."
"I don't know!"
Princess Ling next to her was as beautiful as a little fairy, but was entrusted by the little eunuch on the back of the horse and sat steadily. It seemed that Pei Yuanhao usually had very strict requirements on his children. Even the third prince Nian Rong, who was staggering while walking, was held in his arms by a jockey and put on the horse's back.
At this time, Pei Yuanhao said, "I asked them to lay flowers there. Whoever picks them back will be the first to pick them back, I will have a reward."
When he said this, there was no smile on his face, but the children were already excited enough. Miaoyan was the first to ride a horse and run out, and Nian Shen and the others hurriedly followed.
The dust raised by the horse's hooves gradually covered their distant backs.
When the children ran away, my eyes retracted. Looking at Pei Yuanhao, his face slowly calmed down, and then - looked at me.
I was thumped by his eyes, and I didn't know what was going on. However, Chang Qing next to him seemed to feel something. He stood up with his clothes and said to Wen Sisi and the others who were sitting on the other side: "A few children have run away. Let's go down and take a look, don't let them play crazy."
Wen Sisi and the others were a little puzzled, but when they looked up at Pei Yuanhao's face, they would also feel relieved. They hurriedly responded, got up and followed Chang Qing.
Chang Qing didn't call me, so naturally I couldn't keep up.
This means that the one who is the one who is closest to him is me.
Could it be that his anger will spread to me?
Just as I was thinking this, I saw him pick up a cup of tea in front of him and took a sip. The tea was hot and steaming. Perhaps he was also angry inside. When he drank this, his brows frowned. When Eunuch Yu saw it, he hurriedly stepped forward and waited. Sure enough, he heard him say, "Yuquan, go get a cooler cup."
When Eunuch Yu heard this, he hurried down.
After a while, the cold tea came up and he picked it up and took a sip.
This time, I did not frown. Although the gloomy face on my face did not ease, it was clearer. I heard that Eunuch Yu breathed a sigh of relief and slowly retreated.
I also breathed a sigh of relief and turned around and looked into the distance.
In the smoke and dust, the children didn't know how they were riding.
At this moment, he suddenly spoke-
"Did you miss someone?"
“…”
I was stunned by this, and I turned my head to look at him: "Ah?"
He didn't look at me either, and looked straight ahead. The smoke and dust raised from the horse's hooves had completely covered the figures of several children, but he was not worried at all. After all, there were guards of the imperial guards around him. Under my confusion, he said again: "I ask you, have you missed someone?"
"..." I thought for a while and said, "Of course there have been."
"Oh? Who is it?"
“…”
It’s hard to say who it is, but in fact, who has never seen his life.
To put it simply, Liu Ningyan - my former friend, once believed in her so much and treated her well, and regarded her and Yuer as my best friend in the palace, but she didn't expect that once she gained power and lost power, she would become so fast and so thorough, and in the end, she would end up with me.
I think Pei Yuanhao knew a little about this, so he told me that in the Imperial Study room at that time. However, at this time, there was no need for me to dig out old cases and cause trouble for myself.
So, he didn't look at him, but said softly: "No one is perfect, but he has misunderstood in his half life."
"oh?"
I felt that his topic was a bit strange.
From the time he just received the message on the official road to now, he suddenly asked me this question. Could it be that the message is related to this?
Observing the wrong person?
I was still thinking about this, and I heard him say, "Then do you think I'll misjudgment?"
“…”
This time, I didn't hold back and turned to look at him: "What did Your Majesty say?"
"I ask you, did I, have you seen the wrong person?"
“…”
This time, I slapped myself in the mouth. I just said that no one is better than a sage. Although he is the master of all chariots, he is not a sage after all. If you want to say that he read it wrong - I don’t have that courage yet.
So, bit his lower lip and fell silent.
After a while, he blinked lightly: "You can't answer, either."
“…”
"Actually, of course, I will make mistakes, occasionally, often."
“…”
"But this time, I'm not willing to believe it."
“…”
I looked at him and subconsciously felt something, but before I could speak, I saw him slowly turn his head and look at me: "Because you and I both like this person and you and I also value it."
My heart suddenly sank, and I felt my heartbeat stop beating.
