"Canghai City obviously played a big role. Le Song squinted and will stand behind the queen, watching the queen's reaction.

"Obviously yes, but Lin Ji obviously has no better choice. Plotting against Liuli City is the best move he has at the moment, otherwise the pressure on Canghai City is too great. The queen obviously still has no hostility towards Lin Ji, she has always thought that the initial fault in this matter was on the Han Emperor, so Lin Ji has long had no choice for the sake of Canghai City.

Le Song breathed a sigh of relief, but his right eye suddenly jumped, and he subconsciously turned his head A strong pressure hit him instantly, and he didn't know when the emperor and the master were already standing at the entrance of the small courtyard.

"Mother, Your Majesty is here. Le Song withdrew the hand on the queen's shoulder, said hurriedly, and then hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Little slave, see Your Majesty." ”

"Get up, thank you. The emperor unexpectedly praised Le Song, which made Le Song a little flattered.

Le Song stood up and glanced at his master, and after the old eunuch nodded, Le Song bowed to the queen, and then withdrew from the small courtyard. The old eunuch disappeared after a moment.

"Bad things about me behind my back again?" the Emperor said softly, taking a deep breath, sitting beside the Empress.

"Don't dare, how dare a slave or maid speak ill of the king of a country. The queen shook her head and said firmly, but she didn't look at Emperor Han.

"How is it here?" It seemed that he couldn't find a topic to continue the conversation, and Emperor Han looked at the somewhat deserted surroundings and said.

"Nice, quiet, less annoying, very comfortable. ”

"You know about the rebellion in Liuli City. Emperor Han took a deep breath and asked.

"Well, that little guy just mentioned it to me. ”

"What do you think?"

"What else can I think, you are the emperor of the Han Dynasty, of course you are doing the right thing. ”

"I'm not here to listen to you mock me. There was finally a hint of anger in the Emperor's tone, but it still calmed down.

"I don't seem to have asked you to come to me. The queen turned sideways, didn't look at Emperor Han's face, and said to herself.

"You .................." The emperor finally couldn't stand the empress's cynicism and rose up.

"Do you know what your problem is?" the queen sighed.

"Hmph......" The emperor snorted coldly and did not answer.

"I'm always so arrogant that I don't know how to wake up. ”

The emperor took a deep breath and did not speak, the queen's words were inserted into his ears like two silver needles, making him feel as if he was being gnawed by countless ants, he came here and wanted the queen's comfort, but he didn't expect the queen to be so distracted by him.

"You go, don't come here in the future, this is a cold palace, and staying for a long time is not a good thing for your reputation. ”

"You .................." the emperor was furious, pointing at the empress trembling and unable to speak, and finally flicked his sleeves up, and then turned to leave.

"Why do you bother? The old eunuch didn't know when he appeared behind him, looked at the queen's slightly slumped body after the emperor left, and sighed and said.

"I hope my words will wake him up one day, and I will bother my father-in-law. The queen returned to her usual light demeanor and sat at the table like a noblewoman. Graceful and elegant.

Lin Ji sat alone in the backyard of the Zhao Mansion with bated breath, listening to Zhao Jincheng, Ji Zimo and Feng Yuan's deployment arrangements for Liuli City, pointing out their mistakes from time to time, and then discussing better countermeasures, and so on, it has been more than a day, although Lin Ji has enough confidence to save Liuli City from war, but even if there is a one in 10,000 chance, he still doesn't want such a thing to happen.

Night.

The weather in Liuli City is slightly wetter than that in Canghai City.

"That's what you taught me. Lin Ji sighed, his fingers rubbing slightly, feeling the touch brought by the piece of paper.

On the paper is a portrait of a person's head, which outlines the person's demeanor and appearance very vividly.

Although Liu Yiqing has told Lin Ji many times that he can't draw the demeanor of the Hou Ye, Lin Ji still feels that this is the most father-like painting in the world. It's just that it's wrinkled in his arms.

"Father, you are really a wonderful person, and I finally know how difficult it was for you back then. Lin Ji looked at the person in the painting and smiled and said, "Please bless me, bless Canghai City, and these innocent people." ”

Lin Ji sighed and handed the paper to the candlestick and burned it. He looked at the majestic face that gradually disappeared into the flames, and said in a daze: "I am sure that I don't need to find the courage to live under your majesty, I will follow your will and let Canghai City stand forever." ”

There was a soft knock on the door outside.

"Come in. Lin Ji said with a smile.

Yi Hanlan walked in with a cup of sour syrup, and gently rested it on the table, with lingering worry on her face, she has been with Lin Ji day and night these days, and she can understand Lin Ji's worries, he doesn't want to implicate innocent people, but now he has no choice

Lin Ji glanced at her and sighed: "Don't worry, it'll be fine." ”

A slight resentment flashed in Yi Hanlan's eyes, and he said softly: "You always put everything on yourself, aren't you tired?"

Lin Ji shook his head and said: "Some people are not qualified to shout tired, unfortunately, I am one of these people." ”

Lin Ji raised the bowl and said to the lingering smell of burning paper above the desk, "Respect you." ”

Then drink it all.

Late summer, it's a little hotter than usual. The first autumn rain has not yet arrived, and the heat of March has all accumulated in the streets of the houses, and the wind cannot disperse, making Zhongjing City feel like a quilt on the kangtou.

After waking up in the morning, the residents of Zhongjing will feel that their bodies are full of extremely concentrated sweat residues, and after a little freshening, there is a burst of sweat gushing out after going out.

The cicadas were happy, and they were desperately screaming loudly, but they did not have the hoarseness and the sadness of the last life in the late summer and early autumn of previous years, but a kind of high-pitched voice that had spare strength and ease.

The voices of knowledge rose and fell one after another among the green trees inside and outside the city of Zhongjing. Disturbing people's sleepiness and laughing at people's embarrassment.

A green bamboo pole suddenly parted the leaves and stabbed precisely at a certain place on the trunk.

A little eunuch looked triumphantly at the tree. He put back the gentle bamboo pole, took off the cicada that was bound by gluten, and threw it into the big cloth bag beside him, and was about to continue to shoot. In the afterglow, he caught a glimpse of the one sitting on the bamboo chair next to the courtyard wall to enjoy the shade, and quickly ran over, leaned into the ear and said a few words, and tore open the cloth bag to show the other party like a meritorious service.

The eunuch on the reclining bamboo chair was Le Song. He squinted at it and mumbled. Signal that you know. After thinking about it, he frowned, lowered his voice and said, "How many times have you said it......? If the queen mother is woken up for a while, you will lead the board yourself?"

The little eunuch hurriedly pleaded guilty. With the green tree in a daze, more than a dozen eunuchs hurriedly continued to stick to Zhi.

Le Song half leaned on the bamboo chair. Squinted at the figure of the little eunuch, somehow. But he remembered the situation when he first entered the palace. There are many trees in the palace, and there are naturally more cicadas. Especially this summer is too hot. It lasted until this month, and the nobles in the palace were already tired of these known tweets, and it was thanks to Le Song that they came up with such an idea. sent a few little eunuchs to the palaces to stick cicadas, and he himself shrewdly guarded near the queen's cold palace, in the words of the old eunuch, although the queen now lives in the cold palace, it is still the queen of the Han Dynasty.

No wonder the emperor and empress liked him, such a careful and considerate minion. It's really rare.

Only Le Song himself knows that the most important task of him, the nail of Canghai City, is to keep the relationship with the queen, and maybe this will be the last hole card of Canghai City. He felt the weight of courage on his shoulders.
