“That’s definitely not going to work,” Han Yun shook his head repeatedly. “I don’t want to ruin the atmosphere and make myself too hated.”
“You’re really young,” Qi Yong shook his head. “These days, if you don’t have many enemies, it just means you’re mediocre.”
For example, countless people secretly wish for his death.
Upon hearing this, Han Yun looked at Qi Yong strangely.
He felt this was very strange, and his mind was not clear.
She pursed her lips and said softly, "As long as Uncle is happy."
"You little rascal, you really don't know what's good for you," Qi Yong laughed in exasperation. "Hey, we're teaching you, otherwise how will you ever get ahead?"
"No need," Han Yun pouted. "I'll just stay with my young master. He won't let me go thirsty or hungry."
"Rotten wood!" Qi Yong sneered. "Truly rotten wood!"
He has no ambition whatsoever; it's a waste of his breath.
Qi Yong, a dignified chief eunuch who serves the current emperor closely, has many people hoping for his guidance. Today, he finally showed some kindness, only to encounter such an incorrigible stubborn rock.
"Rotten wood is fine," Han Yun said weakly. "As long as young master doesn't mind."
"you……"
Suddenly, a shout rang out, and Qi Yong, disregarding Han Yun, hurriedly left.
"Qi Yong, come and serve me."
"Master, your servant has arrived."
Inside the carriage, Ji Xuan didn't realize what was happening until she opened her eyes and found herself in the carriage with someone else next to her.
Then I remembered that I seemed to be drunk and was hugging a man and crying my eyes out.
His face immediately turned black.
This was absolutely his most embarrassing moment, without a doubt.
Han Yi, who was standing nearby, had also woken up, but he didn't open his eyes, feeling quite embarrassed.
I actually cried while hugging a complete stranger I had just met; I've never even dreamed of such a bizarre thing.
Time passed slowly, and the atmosphere in the carriage grew increasingly strange. Ji Xuan coughed lightly and called Qi Yong over.
"Master," Qi Yong entered the carriage, "the carriage is too stuffy, why don't you come down and get some fresh air?"
"Good!" With a blank expression, she had Qi Yong straighten his clothes and walked down unhurriedly.
No one knows what he was thinking, but he maintained a calm and composed demeanor, fully demonstrating the grace of an emperor.
After getting off the bus, the view suddenly opened up, and various landscapes came into view. Ji Xuan couldn't help but exclaim, "It's like a poem or a painting, a wonderful place."
“It is indeed a good place,” Qi Yong said with a smile. “I heard that Qingfeng Temple was wiped out by the villagers of this village.”
"Oh?" Ji Xuan became interested. "Do you know the process?"
"If Your Majesty wants to know, this servant will go and find out right away."
"No rush, let's look around first."
Inside the carriage, Han Yi only tentatively opened one eye after realizing the person had left, and then opened the other eye once he was sure the person was really gone.
After calmly tidying himself up, Mude stood up.
Ji Xuan turned her head and saw Han Yi, who had just gotten out of the car, and immediately paused.
On the other side, Han Yi had the same reaction.
However, having experienced various social engagements, he recovered and immediately bowed gracefully, saying, "Brother Wang."
Seeing this, Ji Xuan regained his composure. "Brother Han, Huangjiakou is indeed as you said, with beautiful scenery, nestled against the mountains and by the water, surrounded by flowers and plants, it is breathtakingly beautiful."
“Indeed,” Han Yun replied with a smile. “If Brother Wang is not in a hurry, you may take your time to browse.”
"Young Master," Han Yun asked, puzzled, "Aren't we going to Aunt Jiang's house?"
Upon hearing this, Qi Yong was utterly speechless.
He had never seen anyone so wooden; if he were in the palace, he wouldn't survive three hours.
The two clearly wanted to let bygones be bygones, but he insisted on bringing it up again, perhaps because he was afraid of making things even more awkward.
Carefully observing his master's expression, and noticing that he had indeed changed his expression, Qi Yong smiled and said, "Master, I've heard that the scenery in the village is even better. Shall we go and take a look?"
“Indeed,” Han Yi immediately replied, “This place appears ordinary on the surface, but there are many unexpected sights. I will take you, my brother, to see it.”
“In that case,” Ji Xuan said with a polite bow, “I thank Brother Han for his trouble.”
The villagers were not familiar with Han Yi, but they had met him a few times. Everyone they met greeted him warmly, and the atmosphere was very friendly.
“This village is indeed extraordinary,” Ji Xuan sighed as she walked on the blue bricks. “The villagers are full of energy, have no bitterness on their faces, and are neither humble nor arrogant, which shows that they are well-off and live a good life.”
Along the way, although most of the time they were in prosperous areas, Ji Xuan had a vague idea of what kind of life ordinary people lived. In short, they couldn't compare to these people.
As an emperor, he was heartbroken to see his people starving.
However, the problems were deeply entrenched and difficult to resolve; he did not believe he could solve them overnight, as they were problems that previous emperors had failed to address.
At this moment, Ji Xuan suddenly thought that if all the villages in the Great Zhou were like this, wouldn't it usher in a golden age, an unprecedented golden age?
“If the whole world were like this,” Qi Yong said with a sigh, “then there would be complete peace.”
“This is very difficult,” Han Yun explained softly. “The villagers of Huangjiakou only achieved their current lives because of an accident.”
Two months ago, this place was an extremely poor mountain village. The reason it is where it is today is simply because it received money and provisions from Qingfeng Temple.
This kind of opportunity isn't something just anyone can encounter.
"Young Master, Young Master Wang," Han Yun pointed ahead, "Brother Chuan is coming over, let's hurry up."
"Okay, let's go take a look."
Han Yi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Huang Chuan approaching.
I've already said I'd go to the Huang family's house, and going back on my word would be too embarrassing. But if I go straight in, I'll be reminded of the awkwardness from earlier. It's best to wait for someone to come and pick me up.
He knew that there were no secrets in the village, and he could achieve his goal by simply taking a walk around.
"Brother Chuan," Han Yun said excitedly, "you've finally arrived!"
He felt the atmosphere was strangely off, but the other three didn't seem to notice at all.
"Han Yun, why don't you come inside?" Huang Chuan asked, puzzled. "Some people said you've been here for quite some time."
"We're here to see the scenery; Huangjiakou has beautiful scenery."
Upon hearing Han Yun's explanation, Huang Chuan gave Han Yi a strange look, "I see."
No matter how beautiful the scenery in Huangjiakou is, does it really take half an hour to walk just a few steps?
If my family hadn't already prepared a meal and asked me to come, how much longer would I have had to wait?
Is this what rich people think?
I don't understand, I really don't understand.
"Brother Han, who is this?" Ji Xuan subtly changed the subject.
“Huang Chuan, this is my younger brother,” Han Yi said, pointing to Ji Xuan. “This is Wang Xuan, who came from the capital for a visit.”
"Brother Wang Xuan," Huang Chuan cupped his hands in greeting, "the family has prepared a meal, let's go back first."
"The food is ready," Han Yun said with delight. She quickly moved closer to Huang Chuan and whispered, "Brother Chuan, is there any Dongpo pork? I'm craving it."
"Yes, and also braised meatballs, stewed pig's trotters..."
"That's great!" Han Yun wanted to hug Huang Chuan. "These are all my favorite foods. Thank you, Auntie, thank you, sisters-in-law."
"You can tell them that later," Huang Chuan chuckled. "If you make them happy, I'll make you something even better."
