Chapter 73: The Situation in the Imperial Court (Part 1)

  Chapter 73: The Situation in Chō (Part 1)

  The next morning, Yun Ting got up early, having slept for less than three hours. Not only did he not look tired, but he also seemed to be in high spirits. Although nothing had happened the night before, some intimate contact was inevitable. Yun Ting was not an impatient person and thought that this pace of development was already sufficient. If he really wanted Xia He to sleep with him, it wouldn't be difficult at all; it's just that this wasn't what Yun Ting wanted.

  Some people say that all the romance in the world eventually ends up bursting into the most magnificent fireworks in bed, but Yun Zhen has always thought that chasing after beautiful girls is somewhat similar to traveling: the most beautiful scenery is always along the way, so the beauty of the process is what he pursues. As for that final burst, it's better to let things happen naturally, and Yun Shaojun would never stoop to forcing someone to sleep with him just because of his status.

  As for his current good mood, it's because he came to this world for a period of time and only today did he experience something beautiful that he never expected before - being served by someone "brushing teeth" can be so romantic.

  She was using her clean fingers and salt water to wipe Cloud's mouth. Cloud thought to himself, this person is something else, as long as they have power and money, they can think of all sorts of ways to indulge themselves. He thought back to his own time, when high-tech things were plentiful, but no one bothered with these kinds of servant-like methods anymore.

  However, this mouthwash feels really good. Yun Zhong thought to himself, indeed the speed of human degeneration is unparalleled, and look at me, a young man born in a socialist society that claims everyone is equal, I've quickly developed a taste for it.

  "Third Master, the mistress is inviting you." Yun Zheng had just finished practicing a set of Paiyun Zhang in the small courtyard when one of Ning Wanting's senior maidservants came to invite him.

  "Oh?...... Um, got it, you go back and report to your wife first, just say that Young Master will change his clothes and come over right away."

  After Da Ya's departure, Yun Zheng entered the house and smiled at Xiao He who had just finished tidying up: "Good little He, come help me change into that outfit, okay?"

  Xiao He brought over a change of clothes for Yun Zheng and helped him change while asking, "Young Master, why do you have something to attend to so early?"

  "No, it was Mother who called me over... Hmm, maybe it's about the coronation ceremony." Yun Zhuang said with a smile.

  Xiao He uttered an "oh" and didn't say anything more.

  Yun Cong changed into a white robe and walked to the back of the main courtyard. When he arrived at the entrance of his parents' courtyard, he asked the maid on duty and learned that his father had already gone to the martial arts hall. He didn't bother with formalities and went straight in. Only when he reached the door did he ask, "Mother? Are you calling me?"

  "Come on in." Ning Wanting's voice with a hint of smile came out.

  Yun Cong heard this and immediately stepped forward. As soon as he entered, he was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed: "Wu Xue, why are you also here?"

  "What's wrong with you?" Yun Madam glared at him: "Nüxue is a guest invited by me, where else can she be if not here?"

  "Yes, yes, I was wrong. Mother is scolding me for... uh, what did mother call me over for?" Yun Zhen hastily apologized.

  "Oh, nothing else, just to tell you that your father has decided to hold a capping ceremony for you tomorrow. Originally, this should be done with some fanfare, but this time it's a bit unexpected... Well, you also know, so we can only make do with it hastily, don't have any thoughts in your mind."

  What idea? This little thing, what idea can I have, Yun Ting thought it was funny in his heart. However, he didn't mind being considered just a "special case", because he was indeed an exception. In this era, the noble young master who didn't take his coming-of-age ceremony seriously, probably only Yun Shaojun was the only one in the world, absolutely unique. Don't you see that the 13th princess even got the imperial edict to let her beloved attend her Guili ceremony? It can be seen how much she valued it. Yun Ting's nonchalance was just because his thinking didn't belong to this era at all.

  "Father and mother are all for the sake of the child, how can the child have any thoughts? Mother is worried too much, the child can get married early, and it's not happy yet." Yun Zheng laughed very happily.

  Mrs. Yun saw that Yun Zhong was not dissatisfied in the slightest - to say that he didn't even have a hint of complaint or regret - and she couldn't help but feel puzzled. After all, her son had always been someone who cared deeply about appearances and prestige, so it should be infuriating for him to simplify his own coming-of-age ceremony just to attend the 13th Princess's wedding. It was entirely possible that he would get angry and deliberately delay his arrival in Luoyang out of spite. And yet, the truth was that Yun Zhong not only didn't show any dissatisfaction but seemed to be actually delighted - it was as if the sun had risen from the west!

  Facing his mother's doubts, Yun Zhen suddenly came to his senses and realized that his behavior was a bit off. In this era of flourishing Confucianism and patriarchal society, even the emperor's son-in-law could take concubines. Although the 13th princess was noble, as the young master of the Yun family, he shouldn't be so easily satisfied with just attending her wedding ceremony without being properly married himself. It seemed that his behavior had been a bit off, and he needed to make amends quickly.

  Yun Cong coughed and frowned, saying: "However... wasn't it said that the Emperor had set the date for the 13th Princess's wedding ceremony to be after the Lantern Festival? Why is there such a rush to summon the child back to the capital now? Is there something else going on?"

  Yun's wife smiled as soon as she heard it, and it turned out that Zong'er was thinking about this matter. It's not surprising to see him glance at her and explain: "This is the case, didn't the emperor give you an extra Wen Tanhua? This matter is a bit tricky, since the news got out, the court has been arguing about it... Hmm, the current situation isn't very good, maybe that's why the emperor is in such a hurry to cooperate with the 13th princess to bring you back.

  "Huh? So that's it......" Yun Zheng was somewhat puzzled: "Isn't it just a title, an extra honorific, do they have to make such a fuss about it? These people really have nothing better to do."

  "No, the emperor's gift of allowing you to visit the flowers is not the key point. It's just an excuse. In fact, given the situation in the imperial court, anything could have triggered a quarrel among them. Your case just happened to coincide with it."

  Yun Cong was taken aback, what's going on in the court again?
