Three Years After Falling Off the Cliff

Two jars of wine were placed on the table in Zhaoyang Palace. The dust outside had been wiped clean, as if they had never been in the mud for five years.
When the seal is removed, the aroma of wine fills the air.
Fu Yi looked at the wine jar again and again, and whispered to Sui Tingheng: "Your Highness, please ask two imperial doctors to test for poison."

Seeing that Sui Tingheng seemed puzzled, she explained: "Although I buried the wine myself, I am not the only one who knew there was wine under the peach tree."
During this period of time, she was against Sui Ruijing in everything. She was afraid that he would poison the wine in advance because he was a very vengeful person.

"Okay." Sui Tingheng glanced at the two jars of wine, arranged for the eunuch to invite the imperial physician, and then invited Fu Yi to the courtyard outside for tea.

The queen was already sitting in the courtyard. When she saw them coming out, she looked at the new palace dress Fu Yi had put on and nodded with a smile: "This dress really fits you perfectly."
"You have good taste, Madam." Fu Yi knew that the Queen didn't like her to bow and reverence, so she sat down next to the Queen. "Otherwise, why did you choose this outfit for your servant?"

The queen was amused and rewarded her with a lot of clothes and jewelry.

Seeing that the two had forgotten about him, Sui Tingheng did not get angry. He sat beside them and drank tea quietly, occasionally looking up at them.

"It's rare that you sit with me for so long today. Your father will come over before lunch." After drinking a cup of tea, the queen thought of Sui Tingheng who was sitting next to her: "It's good to come out and relax. Don't stay in the study all day reading. You've become a pedant at such a young age."

As he was speaking, he heard a voice from outside announcing that the emperor had arrived.
Fu Yi stood up and prepared to salute, but the emperor's hearty laughter reached her ears first: "Fu Yi, there is no need to be polite. When you were a child, I held you in my arms."

It seemed that every elder had such a catchphrase. Fu Yi secretly looked up at the emperor. His tall and strong body made him look extremely majestic. He was wearing a black casual suit, which was very different from the previous emperor who was particular about the show.

"Sit down and talk." After the emperor sat down, he saw Fu Yi still standing and laughed, "When I first met you, you were very brave."

"Your Majesty, I have always been timid." Fu Yi sat down smoothly, her tone respectful yet intimate: "It may also be that a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger, so I was a little naughty when I was young."

At this moment, she began to recall frantically where she had seen His Majesty when she was a child.

"Are you scared now?"
"Now I am not afraid of tigers." Fu Yi said with a smile: "But Your Majesty, you are the true dragon emperor who protects all the people in the world. As your subject, I naturally respect and adore you."

The emperor felt completely relaxed by these words. He was dizzy by the flowery words, but this kind of straightforward admiration was just right for him.
As expected of Yun Aiqing’s daughter, she is pretty and speaks well.

The emperor smiled happily: "I heard that you told the little fat boy from the Liu family a few days ago that you are my child?"

When the emperor heard this kind of talk of relationship, Fu Yi was not worried. After all, she was thick-skinned, and judging from the emperor's expression, he did not seem dissatisfied.
She lowered her head with a shy look: "I am sorry to make you laugh at me, Your Majesty."
Who is so loud-mouthed as to bring such a thing to the ears of His Majesty?

"It's okay, it's okay. You are right. The emperor and all the people are my subjects." After chatting with Fu Yi for a few words, the emperor turned the topic to Fu Yi's fall from the cliff.

"How did you survive after falling off the cliff?" Surviving falling off the cliff is a miracle that only the protagonist of the story could achieve.

The queen stretched out her hand and twisted his waist. Why are you so curious about the little girl's sad story?
The smile on the emperor's face twitched twice. Don't pinch him, doesn't he believe that no one is curious about this? !
"In fact, I don't know either. After falling off the cliff, I fainted." Fu Yi didn't mind talking about this past. "I had many dreams while I was dazed. It seemed that many people were talking in my ears, and some were calling my name. I felt like I was walking through a dark cave and saw many people kneeling on the ground and kowtowing."

"I understand." The emperor said mysteriously, "It may be that the ancestors of the Yun and Liu families are kowtowing to the judge and begging him to spare your life."

"Your Majesty," the Queen gritted her teeth and said, "This is called the blessing of our ancestors."

"It means the same thing." The emperor waved his hand and said unconcernedly: "Children blessed by their ancestors are blessed."

After saying that, he reached out to take the snacks on the table, only to find that there was nothing in front of him.
Sui Tingheng moved all the dessert plates in front of the queen and himself. He widened his eyes and was about to take a plate away when he saw the rebellious son put his favorite plate in front of Yun Fuyi.

The emperor remained silent. As an emperor, he couldn't snatch food from a little girl.
It's really incomprehensible, what a rebellious son!
"Lunch will be served in half an hour. Miss Yun, please eat some snacks first." Sui Tingheng took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands and smiled at the emperor: "Your Majesty, you came here so early. Is there nothing important in the court, or have you finished reviewing the memorials?"

The emperor snatched a plate of snacks from his son and said, "Oh, I just had an argument with a few old ministers. I didn't say more than a few words, but they gasped and beat their chests as if they were dying. I was afraid that they would faint in the imperial study, so I came here to hide."

Fu Yi’s eyes widened. Is this something she could listen to?
"Daughter of the Yun family, you said that the soldiers on the frontiers are suffering so much. Is it wrong for me to give them a few more taels of silver every year?"
"That's right." Fu Yi shook his head. The border was bitterly cold and the soldiers had a very hard time.

"Even an 18-year-old girl understands this, but they insist on talking about the family rules of our ancestors. Why can't we cultivate the habit of extravagance among the soldiers?" The emperor was unhappy and his words became rude: "I think it's all bullshit!"
How can you be extravagant with just three or five taels of silver?

"Since you say that, you must be very frugal and abide by the family rules." Fu Yi blinked, "I think Your Majesty should praise them and let the people of the capital know their virtues."

"Oh?!" The emperor's eyes lit up. Don't they like to be thrifty?
That means that money is like dirt and luxury and enjoyment are enemies.

"No wonder I felt that you and I were destined to be together when I first saw Fu Yi." The emperor slapped his thigh: "It turns out that we are really destined to be together."

Look at this head, it’s exactly what he wants.

"I will praise them well when I go to court tomorrow."

"Your Majesty, you can first check who in these families loves extravagance the most." Fu Yi got closer and closer to the emperor, whispering: "First this... then that..."

"Okay, okay." The emperor became more and more excited as he listened, nodding his head repeatedly and saying, "Then the younger generation of their family..."
"Leave it to me!" Fu Yi patted her chest and said, "I guarantee that every time they go out, they will not be able to spend a penny." Seeing the emperor and Fu Yi's smiles getting happier and happier, the queen inexplicably thought of a phrase: birds of a feather flock together. She turned her head to tease Sui Tingheng, and saw her son, who was usually well-mannered, stand up and approach the emperor and Fu Yi.

"Miss Yun, this plan is brilliant, but I think there's still one person missing."

The emperor and Fu Yi looked at him at the same time: "Who do you want?"

"I." Sui Tingheng lifted up the corner of his robe and sat down, his expression serious: "When Miss Yun's plan is completed, I will come forward to cooperate, and the chances of winning will be greater."

"Are you willing?" The emperor looked at him suspiciously. Heng'er's personality was different from his. He was always shameless in doing things, but Heng'er was noble and elegant. Even those old men who were full of etiquette praised Heng'er.

"If it can make the lives of the soldiers on the border easier, why not?" Sui Tingheng turned his head and smiled at Fu Yi: "So I think Miss Yun's plan is indescribable."

"It's not that good actually." Fu Yi said modestly, her eyes already smiling honestly: "With Your Highness here, things will be easier."
"I hope you don't think I'm being superfluous."

"How is that possible?!" Fu Yi stretched out her hand and patted Sui Tingheng's forearm: "You are my trump card."

After taking the photo, she realized that the person in front of her was the prince, not her good sisters and brothers.
She condemned herself in her heart, how could she get so carried away? This was a big taboo for a playboy!

"Hearing what Miss Yun said, I feel relieved." Looking down at his arms, Sui Tingheng raised the corners of his lips slightly.

Fu Yi glanced at him secretly, but he was not angry?
Not sure, took another look and I'm really not angry.

Fu Yi's slightly bent waist straightened up again. Today was another day when she felt that the prince was a very nice person.

"Your Highness, the Imperial Hospital has checked the two jars of wine and found no problem with the wine." Mo Wen walked over with a faint smell of alcohol on his body.

"What kind of wine?" the emperor was curious.

"Father, the government is more important, you can't drink." Sui Tingheng answered irrelevantly: "Mother, why don't I take Miss Yun to my palace for lunch, so that Father won't get addicted to alcohol."

"How can you say that? Am I such an unrestrained person?!" The emperor stood up and said, "Don't worry, I am not greedy for your wine."

At lunch, the emperor was indeed very principled and did not even let the eunuchs bring the wine glasses.

"This wine cup is not good." Sui Tingheng asked the eunuch to take away the jade wine cup: "Replace it with a glass cup."

"Yes." Mo Wen was a little surprised. His Highness usually did not like extravagance, but today he actually remembered the set of priceless glass cups.

The amber-colored daughter's red wine poured into a glass cup is like the bright moonlight, making people drunk before they even drink it.

"Your Highness, your humble servant toasts." Fu Yi picked up the wine glass and drank it first.

After a few years, the daughter's red wine seems to have become sweeter. The person who drank this glass of wine with her was not the one she had imagined, but she felt it was just right.

Five years ago, she was proud and naive, unaware of the evil nature of human nature, and had no idea how to taste wine or judge people.

Five years later, she understood the difficulties of the world and saw the sufferings of all living beings. Sitting beside her were the wise monarch, the gentle queen mother, and the young and promising future crown prince.

"Your Majesty, the Queen, and Your Highness, this humble servant of yours pays tribute." Fu Yi raised her head and drank the second cup.
When she buried the two jars of wine five years ago, she had not expected that the moment she drank them would be like this today.

She, Yun Fuyi, is indeed becoming more and more successful.

After filling the third glass of wine, Sui Tingheng raised the cup and gently clinked it with hers, and the glass made a clear and pleasant sound.

"Miss Jingyun."

The wine swirls gently in the cup, and those who haven't drunk yet are already drunk.

The emperor lowered his head and took a few pieces of meat with his chopsticks. It was just wine. What was so special about it?
LOL, he didn't care at all.
